angie draws completely accurate
TBH Same--

Who's that with heather?
VERONICA
LEGIT HOW I FEEL! 😂
Imagine being disappointed about being hugged by Barrett.
impossible.
Holly Lane atrocious
is that even remotely possible?! if you are, quit being a mythic bitch ;)
Reasons why Mean Girls ths musical is unrealistic:
i would literally die
2:21
Heathers: Veronica Veronica Veronica!!!
Mean Girls: Janis Janis Janis!!!
Everyone: Barrett Barrett Barrett!!!
dante3543 me: I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU
Yup
OMG KATHERINE HOWARDDDDDD
A coincidence? I think not
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH
Barrett really out here turning every girl gay
Gloomy Pen Barret*
Yes lol
Maya you even corrected it wrong. It's Barrett
@@mayadg16 bro, it's Barrett.
Ikr
She looks like such an adult next to all those actual teenagers😂😂
I think she's like a teacher in this video
I think that's the point lol
What if Janis became a teacher tho?
Like Mean Girls 2 would totally be better if they had Janis as a teacher
Janis Teacher AU
It literally looks like one of the teachers flipped her lid.
Omg, is it just me or does Barrett seem like an adult Veronica in this video.
She went to some collage and married a lawyer
Noah Smith YES HAHAH
YES
@@noahsmith4918💀😂
Noah Smith LMAO
Barrett could kill me and my dying words would be “thank you”
Same
That wasn't Heather's last words
Hallie Parrish
Yeah I would say “Corn Nuts”
That sounds like a ‘you’ problem
same
I can't believe that I live on the same time in history and place of the universe that Barrett Wilbert Weed
IKR
All of our moods tbh
FUCKING SAME
Ikrr
Look around, look around, at how lucky we are to be alive right now
I love how they hired actual high schoolers for extras and Barrett is an adult
29 y/o Barrett in a room with high-schoolers, sounds good to me!
@@KatBFabulous SHES ALMOST 30!?!!?!
@@GrowingStrawberries she's 32 now. Wtf is happening. She looks 17.
@@Siwajj38 Is this a Heather's reference?
@@jxstine8454 never meant to(BE YOURS) do that but let's pretend and say yes.
So Rather Be Me is essentially what would happen if Janis gave a Ted Talk?
My mum: how many more times will you watch this?!
Me: The limit doesn't exist.
Yeah the limit does not exiiistt
BEST COMMENT
I've listened to this song like 50 times today
70 times I've sang this today!!!
, nO ThE LIiiimIiiiIT DOeS NOoooOOOOT EXisT
au where Veronica visits Westerburg later and basically tells all the new heathers off
And then leaves them gifts, bottles of wine filled with drain cleaner.
@@lalalalalalwlla yesss hahahahaha
hathats YES
hathats rip jd 😂😂
YES
Did anyone else automatically chant "Janis! Janis! Janis!" in the instrumental section?
I did... In my mind... And heard it full fledged 😂
I did
Lexi Kelsall YES
I thought I was the only one!
Yes
All the girls look disgusted and annoyed when she hugs them but if Barrett freaking Wilbert Weed hugged me I'd probably pass out.
hello my dear sally face pfp friend,,
same lol
“it’s happened to me twice” UM HI HEATHERS CAN YOU IMAGINE IF THEY REFERENCED THAT UGH
elizabeth harding sadly they meant Regina and cady😢
they were talkin bout regina but i understand what you mean haha
elizabeth harding no, Regina, then cady
Yeah she's had a bit of practice with mythic bitches
'Its happened to me thrice'
I imagine How hard would be having Barret hugging you and you had to pretend to hate that
How horrible
Very hard 😂
Acting is hard
Wow, that kind of acting is a nightmare...
I AM SO JEALOUS OF THEM.
If I am one of the actors, maybe I'll make the director angry for hugging back Barrett and keep her in my arms (I sounded like a freaking psycho LOL)
I really love how the girl actually like high school age, she’s pretty cute. Plus seeing the age difference between her and Barrett kind of makes it feel like a cute big sisterly type thing
Is she literally wearing a navy blue blazer? I mean if you get it, then welcome to 1989 then 💙

barrett could punch me in the throat and i would apologize
I would thank her for acknowledging me and feeling I was worth the energy it takes to punch someone honestly
One time, Barrett punched me in the neck.... it was awesome 👏
SwiftsMorrison damnit i was gonna make the mulaney joke 😂
WhatLenaLikes SAME
Ani C one time barret punched me in the face...it was *awesome!*
0:34 I love the way she said “she not nice”
that i roll tho
“Acted nice when she NoT nIcE” (Not hating I bloody love Barret)
I like how throughout the video Barrett invades the personal space of a load of random girls
i feel like this expresses her in such a great way
she could invade my personal space and I would thank her
@@geeky8693 same
if wilbert barrett weed was singing in my school auditorium it would NOT be empty lmao
mine might be because there's not enough theatre kids in my school
barrett hugging the actors makes me smile a lot
It makes ME sad cuz I’m jealous
Is your Pfp fucking pidge. Cause i fucking stan
Same
Heathers: *becomes a musical*
Mean Girls: *becomes a musical*
Me: *waits for Jawbreaker to become a musical with Barrett as part of the cast*
dxrling lmao

Omg yes
Clueless too
I thought you said Jaws and I think I had a heart attack
I'm a simply woman, I see Barrett I click

Wait, why is Regina a bu- Oh. Oh no.
That happened to Her twice huh
First Time:The heathers Betrays Her
Second:Cady and Regina betrays her
The Heathers don't betray Veronica, Veronica kills C, saves Mac and takes the scrunchie from Duke if anything Veronica betrays the Heathers, plus That's three times, because she means Cady and Regina
XxQueenieYt KILL EM WIT FACTS YESS

@@roseraina8008 The dude who was sleeping next to JD in the movie
I headcanon that Veronica's her cool auntie (Janis' mum is Veronica's older sister who was in college for the events of Heathers)
**Everyone glaring at Barrett in this video**
UM EXCUSE ME YOU PEASANTS SHOULD BE BOWING.
Raina TL5Y TRUE 😂😂
@@mellofluid Honestly, some people are so disrespectful when it comes to royalty.. 😂
Raina TL5Y Yea
XD
Aha
Honestly Barrett could flip me off and I’m thank her
MOOD
Recently I lost two of my oldest best friends to stupid toxicity. They became people who treated me badly and I hated myself when I was around them. This song literally is my saviour rn.
Hey I hope things are easier for you now
I hope you found friends who treat you like you should, I have a similar experience with my friends, I just can’t get away from them though.
Wow Shine a Light looks really good
Thats Amore YES
😂
Veronica really got a new look In 20gayteen
I can’t wait for the reprise, I think it’s called Someone Gets Hurt Reprise
Good one 😂
Shine a light definitely has it's own essence though
Janis why are you cosplaying Veronica?
Cause that happenned to her *twice*
@@NashiEmilie omg why did i forget that? 😅
I can imagine Veronica going to schools and give speeches about stuff like feminism

Heathers: What’s your damage?
Please tell me I’m not the only one who noticed this
I DID
Can Barrett Wilbert Weed voice a badass disney princess next? Someone who rejects a bunch or princes (heck even princesses too) because *its ok to be single*
edit; i completely forgot about this comment lol. it’s been two years and i wrote this when i was in middle school. yeah there’s already a lot of disney princesses who did this (merida, elsa) idk i was just writing a comment and didn’t think back to all the other princesses
Hannah Chau oh my GOD oh my GOD YESYEYDYEEYEYSYYSYSYYE
Hannah Chau imagine her being Elsa’s girlfriend
I would love to see her voice a Disney princess!!!
tacobellisbetter so... merida from brave?
That would be literally the best thing ever
*Can Barrett come to my school and sing during an assembly❤*
Aoife Horan and my school too!
Lmao Regina George get in line hunny I asked first😂❤❤
Aoife Horan ok ima be second then swine 😏😎
That would be the best thing ever
That would be so awesome!
If Barret just came to my school assembly I would be like screaming l.😂
Is nobody gonna talk about how she just stole that girls phone
I love that bit. A lot of people could benefit from having their phones taken away for a day or so tbh.
@@phoenixblue-koszalka1518 ok boomer

"September 1st, 1989. Dear Diary: I believe I'm a good person.
Ya know, I think there's good in everyone, but here we are first day of senior year.
I look around at all these kids I've known all my life and I ask myself: What happened?"
Matis99 we were so tiny happy and shiny
Playing tag and getting chased
Guitar Girl baking cookies eating paste
Family got bigger that was the trigger
Like the Huns invading Rome
Im Just Tyler welcome to my school this ain’t no high school this is the thunder dome
Who would let Barrett slap them down with her under hand? 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I would pay Barrett to tie me to train tracks and run me over
y’all... I went to Barrett’s last show (also Grey and Kate’s) and oh my fucking god it was amazing 😭😭😭😭 there was like 10 standing ovations and it was the best performance of mean girls EVER. The energy level was SO HIGH
Me
🙌
Ok but everyone's reactions to her interacting them in the hall if the funniest thing to me
My crops have been watered,
My plants have grown from their seeds,
The sun is shining and I'm not even bothered,
I've just listened to the amazing Barrett Wilbert Weed
Can i just say; Barrett Wilbert Weed is a queen, thank you you can continue with your life now.
1:55 fine! We’re damaged. Really damaged. But that does not make us wise
We're not special, we're not different, we don't choose who lives or dies
“What’s your damage Heather!?”
Let’s be normal,
See bad movies,
Sneak a beer and
Watch TV,
We’ll bake brownies,
Or go bowling,
Don’t you want a life with meeeeeee
@@brooklyn4338 can we be seventeen?
@@adrianadealmeida2212 That's all I want to do
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
People hurt us
imagine being THAT talented. like holy-
Ugh I wish Barrett had shown up to my school. Also her outfit is so Veronica Sawyer. Also the main girl is totally lesbian-coded like she wears flannel AND swing dances with a girl.
I was wondering if anyone else noticed. I saw her and automatically thought "lesbian"
Just because someone wears flannel and swing dances with a girl does not mean they are lesbian. I went to a dance and swing danced with a girl, we both didnt have anyone to go with so we just danced together and I were flannel all the time and I'm not a lesbian. You cannot base someone off their actions or what they were and just label someone when you don't know what their sexuality is!
@@sophialynn1453 preach!!!!!
@@shiahzaharah Thank you Thank you
I thought the same lol
Everyone in this video is so lucky because they got to see Barrett
i swear if i could sing like barret id never shut my mouth and stop singing
I love how Barrett just walks up to people, join in on conversations, randomly hugs bullies, and randomly raises the middle finger XD
Barrett is a literal QUEEN.
I believe you spelled KWEEN wrong :)
Is Barrett Wilbert Weed the Idina Menzel of our generation?
YES
HECK YEAH
she is in the way that she’s gonna shred her voice before she’s 30
She easily surpassed Idina , saw Weed in Broadway 🎭 and enjoyed this video ( prefer the live version) 👍🏻
y e s
“Let’s call our damage even.”
What’s your damage, Heather?
barrett is literally perfect i cant even-
BARRET REALLY IS A QUEEN HUH
2:37 I'm pretty sure that's theft Janis
Gerbilastic 😂
Hahahaha
XD
The only time you’re legally allowed to flip off a hall of high school girls
I’m not a genius or anything but I think that she’d rather be herself then be with you?
wait really??
no shed rather not be herself and be with you
Abbie Byrne wait really? i knew i was wrong!
*Wait really???*
I don’t buy it
NOW WE NEED A WORLD BURN VIDEO 💙 WAIT NO WE NEED A PROFESSIONALLY SHOT VERSION OF THE ENTIRE SHOW.
Ryan Faure
YUS! WORLD BURN! IM DOWN!
Lyrics: So your best friend screwed you over
Acted nice when she's not nice
Well, I have some advice
'Cause it's happened to me Twice
Here's my secret strategy
It always works because
The world doesn't end
It just feels like it does
So raise your right finger
And solemnly swear
"Whatever they say about me
I don't care!"
I won't twist in knots to join your game
I will say, "you make me mad"
And if you treat me bad
I'll say "you're bad"
And if I eat alone from this moment on
That's just what I'll do
'Cause I'd rather be me
I'd rather be me
I'd rather be me than be with you
We're supposed to all be ladies
And be nurturing and care
Is that really fair?
Boys get to fight, we have to share
Here's the way that turns out
We always understand
How to slap someone down
With our underhand
So here's my right finger
To how girls should behave
'Cause sometimes what's meant to break you
Makes you brave
So I will not act all innocent
I won't fake apologize
Let's just fight and then make up, not tell these lies
Let's call our damage even
Clean the slate till it's like new
It's a new life for me
Where I'd rather be me
I'd rather be me
Than be with you
I'll say, no (No!)
I'll say, knock it off, with your notes and your rules and your games
And those sycophants who follow you, I'll remember all their names
And when they drag you down like they inevitably do
I will not laugh along with them
And approve their palace coup
'Cause that's not me
I don't need their good opinions
I have plenty of opinions
Everybody has opinions but it doesn't make them true
What's true is being me
And I'd rather be me
I'd rather be me than be with you
So raise them high 'cause playing nice and shy is insulting my IQ
Yeah yeah yeah
I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
I'd rather be me than be with you!
I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
I'd rather be me (I'd rather be me)
I'd rather be me than be with you
Oml thank you
1:14 imagine barrett hugging you like that 😳😳😳😳
So you’re telling me Barrett went to someone’s school and sang walked on the tables and hugged people sign me up
that girl at 1:15 should be happy that Barrett Wilbert Weed is hugging her
Hello Julia. 😂
How many of these am I going to find you in the comments of?
Am I the only one who wished I was the one Barrett was hugging at 2:37
a sinful thought no like I wouldn’t even care she took my phone either XD
0:23 well at least she’s social distancing
barret in this video gives me the vibe of that one adult they brought to school to give advice about how to get through high school without murdering 3 teenagers
How is it possible for us to deserve Barrett Wilbert Weed?
SKSKSKSKSKSS OUR ADORABLE QUEEN SPREADING A MESSAGE OF FEMALE POWER, I LOVE THIS
Don't care about anyone's opinions. It's not really about female power.
im a "guy" and I use this for all the people I just dont give much of a fuck about... it works for all people!
@@squidmcinks9537 tbh yeah it's just about power. Use it, it's a great message, she's a queen
Barret: hugs a kid
Me: I wish I was that kid.
mood!
Heather, heather and heather, Gretchen, Karen, and Regina are shook
Veronica after she dealt with trauma:
leta hope she didnt use the slushie method to deal with the trauma
The power anthem we all needed
i feel like all the mean girls are secretly fangirling over barrett...
QUEEN
Kudos to the actresses looking annoyed when Barrett hugs them I would just die of gay panic instantly
Barrett must be so used to wearing blue blazers and being surrounded by lunch trays by now
“if you treat me bad I'll say you're bad”
This is the first time in Broadway history that a girl stands up on/by a table and doesn’t sing about a guy...
*didnt barrett say that?*
I love this Song now give The Queen (BWW) a Grammy Award #MeanGirlsCastAlbumfortheGrammyAward
Omg she liderally needs a Grammy!
She's bae
Those actors are really good I couldn't stop smiling if I was in the presence of Barrett Wilbert weed
I LOVE THIS ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I JUST LISTED TO HEATHERS AND BARRETS VOICE IS AMAZING
Barrett Wilbert Weed is my spirit animal
Barrett is a national treasure and we must protect her at all costs.
It’s not just the song, it’s energy, confidence and delivery. I have two young daughters and they are going to see this video way before it’s appropriate for them to know what a middle finger is. Because that mean girl shit starts way before the bad words do. And and while I can tell them this message every single day, hearing and seeing it like this is so much more powerful.
All these teens having to act like the hate Barrett how can you do that
Imagine just being a normal teenage girl getting cast in a music video to be hugged my barret like wtf that would make my day, correction that would make my life
I've come to the conclusion that I'm never going to see this show
R.I.P dreams
This video is so Fetch!!!

"Now raise your right..... Finger"
I love this one💀
Barrett Wilbert Weed is a blessing from the Gods and you can't convince me otherwise
i love how most of the comments here are either

b i would never be disappointed if barrett hugged me
or c barrett is the best human being who is alive on this earth right now we are so lucky to live the same time as her

If Barrett hugged me I SWEAR I would hug her back so tight!! She’s incredible on stage and off ♥️♥️♥️
