Recently there was news that two "Mean Girls inspired movies were being cast. Mean Moms and Mean Girls 2.
I looked at the picture of the original "Mean Girl "cast and my eyes went immediantly to Lacey Chabert.
When Mean Girls debuted in 2004, Chabert had the most clout because of her work on the 90's Fox series "Party of Five", but after the film hit, Lindsay Lohan got the most notice, but you still thought that Chabert would at least score a few movies or even a TV show like "Army Wives".
Five years later, Lacy Chabert seems to be the only "Mean Girl" not be successful.
After the success of "Mean Girls", Lindsay Lohan became a star, a sex symbol , then quickly burned into out into the world amidst bad movies, failed relationships and allegeded drug use.
For all her talent, Lindasy Lohan is nothing now but tabloid fodder for the gossip mags
On the other hand, Canadian beauty Rachel McAdams became a bonafide film star with hits films "Notebook" , "Wedding Crashers", "Red Eye", "The Time Traveler's Wife" and "Sherlock Holmes".
Tina Fey who wrote and starred in "Mean Girls", created the Emmy winning comedy "30 Rock", while her SNL buddy Amy Poehlor went on to "Park and Recreation" (both on NBC).
The last of the ""Mean Girls" crew, Amanda Seyfried has became Hollywood's new "It Girl" in Hollywood with films "Dear John", and "Choloe" as well as her continued sellar twork on HBO's "Big Love"
But what happened to the Chabert?
Even her former cast members of "Party of Five" achieved success: Mathew Fox ("Lost"), Jennifer Love Hewitt ("Ghost Whisperer") Neve Campbell ("Scream") Scott Wolf ("V"). On the IMDB, the most consistent work she had was in 2009, voicing the role of "Gwen Stacey" in The Spectacular Spider-Man" cartoon. For comic geek like myself that's preety cool, but when Rachel McAdams is making movies with Vince Vaughn & Robert Downey Jr. and Tina Fey is scoring back to back Emmy's, it seems a bit sad.
Lacy if you''re out there, holla at me, so I can find out what happened.
Then maybe we can hit the bookstore and read how sad Linday Lohan's life is in the tabloids.
