There’s nothing that makes you old more than finding out it has been 19 years since Hallmark star Lacey Chabert first starred in Mean Girls. Lacey has celebrated the fact on her Instagram page with some great images from the movie that first aired almost two decades ago. Besides Chabert, the teen comedy stars Amanda Seyfried, Amy Poehler, Ana Gasteyer, Jonathan Bennett, Lindsay Lohan, Tim Meadows and Tina Fey.
Hallmark star Lacey Chabert celebrates Mean Girls 19-year anniversary
While it seems like yesterday that Mean Girls was released, it has certainly been 19 years since the first movie came out. The teen comedy was followed up in 2011 by Mean Girls 2, which is also a long time ago. However, Lacey Chabert has posted about Mean Girls on her Instagram with some great images of her co-stars posing beautifully.
Lacey played Gretchen Weiners, a member of The Plastics. However, she was also the daughter of the inventor of Toaster Strudel. Meanwhile, Gretchen made the word “fetch” famous in the movie, which only goes to prove the power of the movie on pop culture.

Thank you to the fans for all of the support & love over the years.
