If you love musicals then you’re going to love this one!
CR8 Agency and Paramount Pictures teamed up to curate a private advanced screening to a 20-year-old classic that has since been remade, Mean Girls. The star-studded event hosted by Kenya Moore took place in Atlanta, Georgia and began with a pink carpet. As if the carpet wasn’t already beautifully fit for the theme, celebs and influencers sashayed across the carpet sporting stylish looks. It was almost as if everyone was thinking the same thing because most guests flaunted the movie’s signature color pink.
Celebs Shows Up and Out To The Pink Carpet
The guest list was vast which included reality tv stars, Kenya Moore, Kandi Burruss, and Tami Rivera who was accompanied by her daughter and niece. Actress Angelica Ross also graced the carpet wearing a black bodysuit that hugged her figure with dazzling pink accents to match the theme.
When asked about iconic style moments the audience is anticipating to see, the host of the evening, Kenya Moore, responded,
“anything pink, I mean, we wear pink on Wednesdays, so anything pink.”
Former Love & Hip Hop Atlanta reality star, Tami Rivera, was stunned that the original movie debuted approximately two decades prior. She expressed, while talking about the reboot,
“damn it’s been 20 years..it’s great to always keep it fresh, but it’s never going to be the original. I can’t believe [it’s been 20 years].”
The Revival Of Mean Girls: A Timeless Masterpiece Reborn As A Musical
The sensational Trinity K. Bonet from Rupaul’s Drag Race set the tone for the night with her electrifying rendition of Beyonce’s Renaissance album. Also, we can’t leave out one of the many gem’s of the evening, the film’s notorious Burn Book, leaving everyone buzzing with anticipation for the film.
This timeless masterpiece, originally released in 2004, has now been reborn as a musical, two decades later. Embracing the LGBTQIA+ community and shedding light on the impact of social media on Generation Z, the Mean Girls reboot seamlessly blended nostalgia with contemporary themes. The iconic one-liners like
“So fetch”
and
“On Wednesdays we wear pink”
were revived, accompanied by catchy musical numbers throughout the film.
And what would a Mean Girls movie be without a cameo from the original mean girl herself, Lindsay Lohan? In a pivotal moment during a math competition, Cady’s transformation back into a math geek was moderated by none other than Lindsay Lohan, adding an extra sprinkle of excitement to the film.
Mean Girls is set to premiere on Friday, Jan 12.
