"Mean Girls" 10 years later: Then and Now
One of the most quoted movies of the 2000s is celebrating its 10th anniversary this week. Lindsay Lohan led the cast of this cult teen comedy, written by and co-starring "SNL" alum Tina Fey. Some of the other cast members, like Amanda Seyfried and Rachel McAdams, were relatively unknown at the time but have since gone on to superstardom, while others, such as Lohan, have faced setbacks over the years.

At the time of the shoot, the budding actress was known as a Disney child star, with appearances in the "Parent Trap," "Freaky Friday" and "Herbie" remakes.

As we've all seen, Lohan's career and reputation took a sharp decline in the years following the success of "Mean Girls." The Hollywood starlet has faced repeated run-ins with the law, dealt with substance abuse, attended rehab multiple times and served as constant tabloid fodder over the last decade.
She recently starred in a reality series on Oprah Winfrey's OWN Network, chronicling her struggles to stay sober while attempting to get her career back on track.
