Summary
This week, Tommy is joined by actress Lacey Chabert who became an icon in pop culture history by playing Gretchen Wieners in Tina Fey’s beloved movie, Mean Girls. Since then, she has accumulated countless credits to her name, including starring in over three dozen Hallmark movies. But now she is spreading the holiday cheer by joining Hot Frosty on Netflix, which hit #1 on the charts within 24 hours of its debut. Today, Lacey opens up about why she wanted to join this whimsical Christmas movie, that Lindsay Lohan cameo that lit the internet on fire, what it was like working as an actor at just 7 years old, growing up in front of the public eye, what reuniting last year with some of her Mean Girls cast meant to her, if she is down to do a Mean Girls Christmas movie, the family she formed while working on Party of Five, how even when life isn’t easy she tries to find the joy, what her relationship is like with grief, why its important to allow yourself to feel sad in those moments, if she wants to return back to the Broadway stage one day, and so much more.
