The actor revealed she'd turned down the Black Friday ad before realizing her fellow 'Mean Girls' costars Lindsay Lohan, Lacey Chabert and Amanda Seyfried had said yes.

Earlier this fall, North Shore High School plastics Lindsay Lohan, Lacey Chabert and Amanda Seyfried reunited for a Walmart Black Friday ad.

The commercial also featured Mean Girls originals Rajiv Surendra (who played Kevin Gnapoor) and Daniel Franzese (Damian) and included an appearance by Missy Elliott doing her best Coach Carr.

Notably missing, however, was "Queen Bee" Regina George, played by Rachel McAdams.

In an interview with Variety published on Wednesday, McAdams revealed her reasons for skipping out on the reunion commercial.

She explained that doing commercials isn't really her "bag."

“I don’t know; I guess I wasn’t that excited about doing a commercial if I’m being totally honest.”
“A movie sounded awesome, but I’ve never done commercials, and it just didn’t feel like my bag."

McAdams also shared that she only found out after she turned down the offer that her former costars would be in the ad.

"Also… I didn’t know that everyone was doing it. I would, of course, always love to be a part of a Mean Girls reunion and hang with my plastics, but yeah, I found that out later.”

People on social media collectively agreed her decision was "so Regina George."









Of course, she was still missed, nonetheless.


As for the chatter surrounding McAdams making an appearance in the upcoming Mean Girls movie adapted from the Broadway musical, well, that - like fetch - isn't going to happen, either.

She told the magazine:

“Tina [Fey] and I sort of dabbled with a few ideas, but it was tough to make it all work in the end."
“I was really down for whatever she wanted to do."
"I think the direction it went in will be fantastic and I cannot wait to see it.”

The new Mean Girls is set to be released in January with Reneé Rapp playing Regina George.

Mormon Church Accidentally Spotlights Gay Mormon Fashion Designer—And People Can't Get Enough

A Mormon church tried to stay hip and garner new followers by promoting a fashion line, only to prove to all of us that we're really not as different as the prejudiced people among us would like us to believe.

Let's unpack this: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has an Instagram account over at @churchofjesuschrist. They regularly promote members of their community, demonstrating what they do, how they give back to their community, and how their religious testimony ties into their mission.

Lauren Boebert Dragged After Making Bonkers Claim About Moon Landing Before Correcting Herself
