What was her first impression of Blake? Amanda noted, “Blake I didn’t know, but I just remember thinking she was so gorgeous, and I was like ‘She’s the perfect Karen.’ ‘Cause I was Regina in the room, but things happen.”
Though the two ended up in different places, with Blake going on to star in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and later Gossip Girl, they’ve both had stellar careers since then.
“We’re all living our best lives,” Amanda added, “which is an amazing thing to be able to say.”
Aside from meeting Blake, the Mean Girls audition experience also marked a series of firsts for Amanda, who told Vanity Fair in February about the moment she learned she was cast in the movie.
