Amanda Seyfried Says A 'Mean Girls' Scene Has Been Haunting Her For Years & It Was 'Gross'
Men love to ask her about it 😒
Amanda Seyfried's come a long way since she played Karen in Mean Girls, but one moment from the movie continues to make her cringe every time it comes up — and it comes up way too much.
The actress recently shared her Mean Girls regret during an interview with Marie Claire, as part of a wider-ranging chat about her more recent work in The Dropout.
In Mean Girls, Seyfried's Karen could predict the weather by squeezing her breasts, and she says people still ask her about it.
More specifically, men who recognize her will ask if it's raining outside.
"I always felt really grossed out by that,” she said in the interview.
“I was like 18 years old. It was just gross."
Seyfried starred in the movie alongside Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams, though her character wasn't as sharp as the others.
The actress, now 36, also spoke to Marie Claire about her views on fame, referring to herself as "somewhat recognizable" while stating that it has been the "healthiest trajectory" for her.
She pointed out that many young actors end up paying a price for their fame, but she tried to avoid that by buying herself a farm.
"Let’s go in the opposite way,” she said in explaining her choice.
“I think being really famous [young] must really f*cking suck," she added. "It must make you feel completely unsafe in the world. I see these younger actors who think they have to have security. They think they have to have an assistant. They think their whole world has changed. It can get stressful. I’ve seen it happen to my peers."
She didn't mention anyone by name, but Mean Girls co-star Lindsay Lohan has definitely had a rougher ride. Lohan was a big child star who seemed ready to break out with her role in Mean Girls, only to see her career derailed by a string of personal issues that played out in public.
Mean Girls marked its 18th anniversary last month.
