The producers of the Broadway musical Mean Girls have announced that the show will not re-open when shows are allowed to return after the pandemic.

The hit musical opened in early 2018 and played over 800 performances on Broadway. It’s final performance was on March 11, 2020.

Tina Fey, who wrote the movie version of Mean Girls and starred in the film, wrote the Broadway show as well and received a Tony Award nomination for her work.

Sabrina Carpenter joined the show as lead character Cady Heron on March 10, 2020 and only got to appear in the show two times before it was shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The producers said, “We’ll see you soon on our National Tour, which resumes performances this summer, and in the upcoming film adaptation from Paramount Pictures.”

Another hit musical surprised fans by announcing an early closing amid the pandemic.

The new Disney and Pixar movie Soul is streaming now on Disney+ and you might be wondering what the voice cast looks like in real life!

Jamie Foxx leads the cast as Joe Gardner and he is joined by Tina Fey, who plays his mentee 22.

Soul follows Joe Gardner – a middle-school band teacher who gets the chance of a lifetime to play at the best jazz club in town. But one small misstep takes him from the streets of New York City to The Great Before – a fantastical place where new souls get their personalities, quirks and interests before they go to Earth. Determined to return to his life, Joe teams up with a precocious soul, 22, who has never understood the appeal of the human experience. As Joe desperately tries to show 22 what’s great about living, he may just discover the answers to some of life’s most important questions.

The movie was supposed to be released in theaters, but due to the pandemic, Disney decided to treat Disney+ subscribers to the film for free!

Sara Bareilles and Renee Elise Goldsberry share a hug while filming a scene for their upcoming comedy series Girls5Eva on Tuesday (October 20) in New York City.

The upcoming series is going to stream on the Peacock streaming service and it is being executive produced by Tina Fey, among others. She was spotted on set alongside the pilot’s director Kat Coiro.

In Girls5Eva, “when a one-hit-wonder girl group from the 90’s gets sampled by a young rapper, its members reunite to give their pop star dreams one more shot.”

Sara is playing “Dawn, a former member of Girls5eva, who is now a bit restless in life managing her family’s small Italian restaurant in Queens. When the opportunity arises, Dawn reluctantly gets the band back together for a Girls5eva reunion and it might just be exactly what she needed.”

Renee is starring as “Wickie, the glamorous, big-voiced, star of the group back in the day. Wickie’s solo career hit a ditch, but she’s determined to use this new opportunity to retake her rightful place as pop royalty.”

In the scene, it looks like Wickie arrived at Dawn’s apartment with her suitcase in tow.

Also starring in the series are Busy Philipps, Paula Pell, and Ashley Park!

The cast of Mean Girls reunited for a special reason and you can watch the full video here!

Katie Couric brought the entire cast together after reaching her goal of getting 5,000 people to register to vote as part of HeadCount’s Good to Vote campaign.

Lindsay Lohan, Tina Fey, Amanda Seyfried, Lacey Chabert, Lizzy Caplan, Daniel Franzese, Jonathan Bennett, Tim Meadows, Ana Gasteyer, and Rajiv Surendra all participated in the reunion. Rachel McAdams, who is currently pregnant, was unable to attend the reunion, but she did a solo Zoom call with Katie that was included.

Amanda had to lay down during the call as she just gave birth to her second child, which Katie noted at the beginning.

Tina revealed that she had to change lines in the movie to get a PG-13 rating. She said, “We felt it was important to get that PG-13 so I had to keep peeling that away. I remember one of the weird ones, we couldn’t say… in the cafeteria Jason Weems says ‘is your cherry popped?’ and they wouldn’t let us say it. I do think because it was girls and not boys MPAA were like ‘no,’ they couldn’t handle it. So we had to change ‘is your cherry popped’ to a weird audio replacement of ‘is your muffin buttered,’ which means nothing.”

Take a look back at what the cast looked like in 2004 at the red carpet premiere of the movie!

October 3rd is celebrated as Mean Girls Day every year and we’re taking a look back at the film’s red carpet premiere from 2004!

In the movie, Lindsay Lohan‘s character Cady Heron crushes on her classmate Aaron Samuels, played by Jonathan Bennett. She notes in a scene, “On October 3rd, he asked me what day it was.”

Mean Girls helped launch Lindsay to super-stardom following her beloved roles in The Parent Trap and Freaky Friday.

The film’s red carpet premiere was held at the Cinerama Dome Theater in Hollywood on April 19, 2004. In attendance were Lindsay, Jonathan, Tina Fey, Rachel McAdams, Lizzy Caplan, Lacey Chabert, Amy Poehler, Tim Meadows, Kevin Nealon, and producer Lorne Michaels.

Tina Fey is putting Mariah Carey to the test!

The Saturday Night Live alum grilled the Caution diva, a known Mean Girls super-fan, about the movie in Billboard’s “Quizzed” video series on Thursday (September 10).

PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Mariah Carey

In the video, Mariah shows off a piece of jewelry to prove how much she loves the movie.

“Could you tell by anything that I’m wearing that I might have seen the movie once or twice? My necklace is an ‘M’ version of the ‘R’ that Regina and the ‘C’ that Cady have,” Mariah explained.

“When the movie was first released, I watched it literally every night. And then recently, my daughter — who’s technically too young — she’s obsessed with it.”

When they discussed “Jingle Bell Rock” in the film, the singer said she was disappointed “All I Want for Christmas Is You” wasn’t used instead.

“We’re gonna make another movie of it, so if you want to license us that song for the movie and also be in the movie, just say nothing now and we’ll consider it legally binding. Just laugh and it’ll be legally binding,” Tina joked.

Mariah Carey just released the tracklist for The Rarities – check it out!
