In the new mean girls is regina gay
Mean Girls came out in , which is so difficult to believe because it remains so ingrained in pop culture and absolutely iconic nearly 20 years later&#;which, yes, that makes me feel hella aged, so let&#;s just move on.
While the movie purports to be about Cady&#;s journey from outcast to Mean Teen to Regular Teen, the real luminary of the present is Queen Bee herself Regina George. She&#;s vicious, a fashion icon, dumb rich, and also a closeted gender non-conforming girl. And I have proof.
As the leader of The Plastics, she has an image she needs to uphold: the popular, stunning &#;It&#; girl with the hottest guy as her crush. There&#;s no room for her to be queer, especially if she wants to keep her social standing. In addition, this was Gay marriage was still over a decade from existence legalized in America, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer had just killed off one of their only lesbian characters the year prior.

In the new movie, Janis is gay for real, and thus the rumors are not really rumors anymore.
Spivey and Cravalho bring a lot to their roles, which haven’t changed all that much since Spivey’s Damian is unapologetic in his flamboyance, as is this updated Janis. Cravalho is well-cast in the role. Her vocals are first-rate, but i

Bisexual actor and musician Reneé Rapp will be stepping into the pink steep heels of iconic villain Regina George (she also previously portrayed the traits in the Broadway musical).
