As iconically mean as Regina George is, it’s definitely Nancy from ‘The Craft’ and Jennifer from ‘Jennifer’s Body’ that I wouldn’t dare mess with.

Vivian Kenington was hardly a mean girl. Yes, she played some mean antics, but she did not go above and beyond with cruelty the way mean girls do. Also, until she personally got to know Elle for herself, everything she thought she knew about Elle was what Warner had told her. From Vivian's perspective, here comes this Barbie doll wannabe who supposedly gets into the school through dumb luck just to try and win back her ex boyfriend; now Vivian's boyfriend. Vivian had a motive to break and discourage Elle, but stopped after learning that she was wrong. A mean girl would have pushed forward with the cruel antics long after learning that Elle had been misrepresented, and would have gone after the little dog too.

Heather Chandler is the classic example of the Mean Girl. Though, I liked that we saw a vulnerable side to her, when she's pressured into being intimate when she doesn't want to. It's a shame that this isn't included in the musical.

@Rivenlore99

Seeing this vulnerability really humanized her in a way I feel other “mean girls” aren’t. Which perhaps makes her an even “meaner” mean girl, since we understand she isn’t as 2 dimensional as we thought.

I was about to riot if Heather Duke and Heather Chandler weren't here. Thank god they are. Heather Chandler absolutely deserves number 1.

I was thinking #1 would be Regina George, since the movie is called "Mean Girls." I also thought of Kathryn Merteuil from Cruel Intentions. One you left out is Suzie Toller from Wild Things. On another note, did anyone else notice there were a lot of Reese Witherspoon movies on this list?

Oh DEFINITELY Kathryn Merteuil. Her downfall was so satisfying to watch in the end!!! =) Regina George is a given. Sue Snell...hold the f up...WHAT?!?!?!?

But what about Heather and Megan from White Chicks?

Definitely Heather Chandler. Happy sunday afternoon, Emily. Take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well.

WHAT???!!! Sue Snell is the antithesis of a mean girl. She asks her own boyfriend to take Carrie from a genuine place in her heart-it was both out of remorse & to let Carrie have a night to herself. She even tries to warn Ms. Collins when she sees what Chris has planned. Sue was an odd choice for this list. Chris or Norma should have been on it instead

I liked both movie and book versions of the Duff, even if both are radically different. For example, Bella Thorne's Madison doesn't exist in the book's universe, and Bianca doesn't live with her mum, but her dad.

Something the majority have in common: insecurity.

I’m sorry, when you really want something you focus on it like nothing else matters. You can’t be half assed do you really care about this thing? Gabriella even forgot lyrics during performances. The arts is cut throat if you’re not fully committed then the next person can take your spot. You don’t get participation trophies.

I appreciate Tracy Flick in Election because it is one of those movies that are supposed to lead you a conclusion. In stories the protagonist should win… but Tracy being successful at the end made it more interesting.

Okay, here's Chris Hargensen

Nancy didn’t start out mean or evil. She was a poor, abused girl who didn’t have an outlet for her rage. It became too difficult to keep the magic from controlling her, especially since she didn’t have the genetic background. It became too easy to use magic for power and revenge, rather than just becoming a stronger person.

Yeah, Mojo, SUE Snell only bullies carrie for about a minute and a half of screen time before she has a change of heart and spends the entire rest of the running time of the movie, trying to make it up to her. There is no question Chris and Billy are the real antagonists. Not to mention Margaret, carrie’s mom, but Sue is not a mean girl. And the fact that she feels guilty is a perfectly legitimate reason for wanting to help Carrie. Why does she have to become a friend to CARRIE? That is just patently stupid
