#Lindsay Lohan “Very Hurt and Disappointed” Over New ‘Mean Girls’ Joke, Says Rep

Lindsay Lohan did not appreciate a line in the new Mean Girls film that appears to reference a crude comment about the actress that made headlines nearly two decades ago.
A scene in the Paramount movie, which topped the domestic box office over the weekend, includes Megan Thee Stallion portraying herself as she offers support for Cady Heron (Angourie Rice) by saying, “Y2K fire crotch is back.” Back in 2006, a TMZ video made headlines over oil empire heir Brandon Davis’ insulting comments about Lohan, which included him referring to the actress as a “fire crotch.”
“Lindsay was very hurt and disappointed by the reference in the film,” Lohan’s publicist, Leslie Sloane, said in a statement shared with People and other media outlets.
After originating the role of Cady in Mark Waters’ Paramount movie Mean Girls that hit theaters in 2004, Lohan — spoiler alert — makes a cameo in the new film that is based on the Broadway musical of the same name. Samantha Jayne and Arturo Perez Jr. directed the new Mean Girls feature from a script by Tina Fey, who also penned the 2004 film.
The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to Paramount and a representative for Fey for comment.
During THR’s recent conversation with the new film’s co-directors, Jayne explained that the project’s team was selective in deciding which jokes felt appropriate for our current era and was careful to prune dialogue from the original movie that no longer holds up.
“There’s certain comedy that flew and was funny 20 years ago, that just doesn’t fly today,” Jayne said in the interview. “We all knew that. But there are certain iconic lines where we would joke that there would be riots in the streets if it wasn’t in there.”
