Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Seyfried and Lacey Chabert reunited in a totally fetch Mean Girls-inspired Walmart commercial.
The clip — made to celebrate Walmart’s Annual Event ads launching on November 1 — begins with three girls dressed in pink while walking out of school, nearly identical to a shot from the iconic 2004 film. Lohan, 37, also chimes in as her character Cady Heron, saying, “Here at North Shore, some things never change. On Wednesdays, we still wear pink.”
The advertisement then cuts to a shot of Chabert, 41, as Gretchen Weiners, who is picking her daughter up from school. “Get in sweetie, we’re going deal shopping,” she shares excitedly. The scene is reminiscent of when Rachel McAdams’ character Regina George told Cady, “Get in loser, we’re going shopping.”
Chabert later is recording her daughter and two friends dancing when she says her famous line: “This is going to be so fetch!” Her daughter groans, “Stop trying to make fetch happen. It’s still not going to happen.”

It concluded with everyone around school posting the Walmart Black Friday Deals posters everywhere, similar to the Mean Girls Burn Book getting exposed.
In January 2020, Tina Fey, who wrote and starred in the original Mean Girls, announced that they were officially making a musical movie adaptation of the Broadway show inspired by the 2004 film.
“I’m very excited to bring Mean Girls back to the big screen, Fey, 53, said in a statement to Playbill in January 2020. “It’s been incredibly gratifying to see how much the movie and the musical have meant to audiences.” The movie will star some familiar faces such as Reneé Rapp, who also played Regina George on Broadway, Busy Philipps and Jenna Fischer.
