'Mean Girls' Movie Songs Revealed, 14 Tracks Cut from Broadway Musical Version
The Mean Girls movie musical is just days away and the full tracklist has been revealed!
The new version of the iconic 2004 movie is an updated take on the story, blending the original movie with the Broadway musical that premiered in 2017, and puts a fresh, current with the times spin on it.
