20 years ago today, the world met Aaron, Cady, Gretchen, Karen, Regina, Janis, Damien, Kevin G, Shane and Ms Norbury for the first time when Mean Girls premiered at the Cinerama Dome in Los Angeles, California on April 19, 2004.
20 years ago today my life was changed forever. I can’t tell you how proud I am to be part of a story that, still to this day, makes so many people happy. It’s been one of the biggest gifts of my career and life.
I’m boarding a flight right now to go shoot a project that I have been producing for the past year, and the gate agent pulled me aside and said “it’s so funny, my boyfriend was born the day Mean Girls came out.” I said, “oh that’s fun!” And then I realized she meant the ACTUAL DAY. All I could say to her was, “Grool.” Because that means people born on that day are now grown adults, and I’ve never felt older in my life. 🫠 But at the same time, I felt proud. Thank you for loving Aaron Samuels as much as I do, and I hope you still think my hair looks sexy pushed back. 💙 Love you all. Do you remember where you were the first time you saw it? #MeanGirls
Taking notes
Happy Birthday to my husband @jaymesv and his legs. I would say they are your best quality, but they aren’t. Your heart is your best quality. Followed by your smile you give me when I annoy you like in these videos. Followed by your values and your strength, (like in these videos). To say you’re my better half wouldn’t be correct. You’re the best of both of us. I love that every single person I run into immediately asks, “Where’s Jaymes?” You are so loved and adored by so many people because they fall in love with your heart and your kindness the same way I did. I can’t believe I get to spend the rest of my life with you. You are simply the best there is, and you deserve to be celebrated not just today, but every day. I love you, Happy Birthday husband.

The Amell Fam has entered Camelot! What a special night to have the entire fam here to celebrate my Broadway debut in @spamalotbway while we also got to celebrate the release of one of my best friend’s @robbieamell & @stephenamell’s new movie Code 8 : Part 2 on @netflix. This was a moment in time we will never forget, we feel like the luckiest people alive. (And yes I saw you @italiaricci wiping proud mama tears during the show, but that’s what makes life so beautiful. And your makeup still looked flawless- just kidding you don’t even need make up cuz you’re so pretty) Love all these beautiful people so much. I feel so grateful.

Happy International Women’s Day to the woman I would be nothing without. She drove me to every play rehearsal, made hundreds of meals for the drama kids so they wouldn’t be hungry. She believed in my more than I believed in myself, and when I said I wanted to quit college because it wasn’t for me and take my chance moving to NYC and just going for it, she said, “Well we better pack the car, it’s gonna be a long drive.” I wish she was with us to see the life I’ve built, and more than anything I wish she met Jaymes. But I know she’s the reason I’ve been able to do the things I’ve been able to do. This picture is of the Mean Girls premiere red carpet, I took her as my date because she deserved to have the applause too.
