'Mean Girls' Digital Release Edits Out Controversial 'Fire Crotch' Joke

The removal of the offensive line comes after Lindsay Lohan expressed disappointment, highlighting the film's commitment to sensitivity.

The 2024 musical adaptation of 'Mean Girls' has removed a controversial joke made at Lindsay Lohan's expense from its digital release.
Lindsay Lohan, who reprised her role in a cameo, was not informed about the inclusion of the 'fire crotch' joke, which originally targeted her in 2006.
The joke's removal was prompted by Lohan's public expression of being 'very hurt and disappointed' by the reference.
Screenwriter Tina Fey, a longtime friend of Lohan, has not publicly addressed the controversy surrounding the joke's inclusion.
The edited digital version of 'Mean Girls' is now available for rent or purchase on various streaming services.
