If you’re a fan of Mean Girls, you know that October 3rd is a little more “captivating” than the other days of the year.

Since the hit comedy was released in 2004, October 3rd has been commonly referred to and celebrated as Mean Girls Day. Why is that?

At the beginning of the film, Cady Heron, played by Lindsay Lohan, starts talking to her crush “more and more.” In a voiceover over a montage of her interactions with her crush Aaron Samuels, played by Jonathan Bennett, Lohan says, “On October 3rd, he asked me what day it was.”

“It’s October 3rd,” Lohan says in the scene.

The now-famous scene has inspired fans of the film to post memes paying tribute to the film every year on this day. Even some of the film stars have taken part in the tradition.

In 2022, as part of a promotion for their film “Falling for Christmas,” Lohan and Netflix shared a joint post on Instagram with the caption, “It’s October 3rd. Mark November 10th on your calendar now.”

Lohan also posted a picture of the scene on Instagram on this day in 2021 with the caption, “It’s October 3rd.”

In 2020, Katie Couric reunited the cast of Mean Girls for the first time since the film’s premiere.

The new “Mean Girls” movie came out in early 2024

Tina Fey’s adaptation of the Broadway musical, originally inspired by the 2004 film, presents a new twist on the modern classic, touts Paramount Pictures, the production house behind the film.

Starring Angourie Rice in the Lindsay Lohan role as Cady Heron, the film focuses on Heron, a new student who struggles with the social pitfalls of high school and falls in love with the bossy ex-boyfriend of Regina George (Reneé Rapp). Leader of the A-list plastic clique.

USA TODAY film critic Brian Truitt gave the new musical ★★½ out of four and said that the film “doesn’t so much replicate the stage show as it does a rehash of Lindsay Lohan’s 2004 teen comedy – a film – “It was pretty good the first time, thanks – with a few show tunes.”

“It’s actually not a bad thing, but more than anything it feels unnecessary,” Truitt says.

Directed by Samantha Jayne and Arturo Perez Jr., “Mean Girls” 2.0 was written by Tina Fey, who also appears in the film, and premiered on January 12th.
