'I will always Honor That Movie' — Amanda Seyfried Hopes Her Iconic Role to Accompany Her Even in the Afterlife

Amanda Seyfried

It became a cultural phenomenon with sharp humor and unforgettable lines.

Amanda Seyfried has an unusual wish regarding her funeral. She wants one of her roles, with a title far from exemplary, to be mentioned on her grave.

During her appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, host Josh Horowitz reflected on how Mean Girls, the 2004 teen comedy, has remained beloved and might even be more prominent in popular culture now than it was 20 years ago. He mentioned that, for Seyfried, it's likely that a 14-year-old girl would come up to her every day, quoting her lines from the film as if it had just been released.

Seyfried, who played Karen Smith, responded:"I hope they quote it on my grave. In many ways, it was just a perfect movie. People still relate to it, and it really — it connected us, and it continues to. I will always be excited to talk about it. I will, any day, honor that movie."

still from Mean Girls

Amanda Seyfried played Karen Smith in Mean Girls, a teen comedy directed by Mark Waters and written by Tina Fey. The film, released in 2004, follows Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan), a teenager who moves to the U.S. from Africa and struggles to navigate the complex world of high school social cliques. Cady becomes involved with the "Plastics," a group of popular girls, including Karen (Seyfried), Regina George (Rachel McAdams), and Gretchen Wieners (Lacey Chabert).

As Cady tries to fit in, she faces the challenges of dealing with manipulation, friendship, and betrayal. Mean Girls quickly became a cultural phenomenon, known for its sharp wit, iconic quotes, and its exploration of teenage social dynamics.
