Fans were divided after Mean Girls star Reneé Rapp casually admitted she was ageist towards millennial women during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
Rapp got her first big break in 2019, when she was just 19 and joined the Broadway company of Mean Girls to play head Plastic Regina George.
Last year, she reprised the role for the movie adaptation of the musical that is currently playing in theaters. The new movie is based on Tina Fey's 2004 teen comedy film of the same name.
While promoting the new film, Rapp has gone viral for her "unfiltered" and "unhinged" conduct in interviews, which had some fans busting out the popcorn to watch on repeat.
One social media user on X (formerly Twitter) summed up the 24-year-old's behavior best, describing it as "going into interviews and saying whatever's on her mind."
Her recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live was no exception and she displayed her usual MO of not holding back.

On Sunday's episode, Cohen asked Rapp which Real Housewives of Potomac cast member she would be best friends with in real life.
Rapp responded:
“There’s something about Karen [Huger] that’s just so funny to me."
She then continued nonchalantly:
"She’s so funny, and I’m very ageist but, like…”
Before going further, a gobsmacked Cohen asked:
"You're ageist?!"
To which Rapp clarified:
"I am actually."
Cohen paused the game they were playing and continued asking:
“You don’t like older people?”
“We’ve got to dig into this. OK… So you’re a little ageist, OK."
"Well, let me ask you this, are you ageist towards me?”
When Rapp said she wasn't necessarily ageist toward Cohen, who is 55, he asked:
“You just look down on older people? Or don’t care for them?”
Rapp laughed and said:
“I just feel like, I don’t know, I just was always the young one in situations…"
"Like, millennial women were always coming for me and I was like, ‘Shut up.’”
Housewives star Gizelle Bryant, who is 53 and was also a guest on the episode, gave Rapp a reality check, saying:
“You’re going to get older one day.”
Rapp replied:
“I fear.”
When Cohen chimed in, convinced that she didn't really fear getting older, Rapp confirmed:
“I fear because I’m ageist!”
Social media users had conflicting thoughts about Rapp's comments and weighed in accordingly.
Some winced at the awkward discussion.
Others downplayed the pearl-clutching reactions.
The new Mean Girls movie has an ageist PG-13 rating and is playing at a theater near you.
