[post_page_title]Lindsay Lohan as Cady[/post_page_title]
Cady Heron was the movie’s well-meaning protagonist. Heron had been homeschooled before attending public school for the first time in her teens. The naïve redhead would become embroiled in Regina’s web of adolescent manipulation, becoming obsessed with dethroning the queen bee and stealing her chiseled beau. Heron was played by Lindsay Lohan. Lohan had been a regular Hollywood face since the age of ten, but it was her Mean Girls role that solidified her status as a teen idol.
