Remember Gretchen Wieners from Mean Girls? This is what she’s up to now
Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried are all household names... but what happened to the other gang member?
SHE was Queen Bee Regina George’s badly-treated best friend, whose dad invented toaster strudel and whose hair was full of embarrassing teenage secrets.
And despite being unable to wear hoop earrings, use the word ‘fetch’, or stand up for herself at all – Gretchen Wieners was many people’s favourite Mean Girls character.
While Rachel McAdams, as Regina, and Lindsay Lohan’s character Cady Heron plotted and schemed, the well-intentioned Gretchen and Karen Smith floated through high school trying to maintain their popularity.
It’s been 14 years since one of the world’s best known, and most quoted, chick flicks hit cinema screens.
Tina Fey’s film catapulted some of the movie's cast onto the Hollywood radar.
Rachel has gone on to star in The Notebook, Red Eye, The Time Traveller’s Wife and Sherlock Holmes.
