things i love about this performance: - new karen has great facial expressions - m a r i a h - plus size girl leading a dance break and KILLING IT - the girls in heels making it look so easy - flawless belts - everyone's outfits being great
Inspiring to see a plus size girl front and center at the top of the dance break. My eyes were drawn to her, not cause of her body is different than all the other girls, but because of her PASSION 1:53
She is so awesome! She recently played Tracy Turnblad, and I got to see her in a couple community theater type shows. She always kills it and has the best energy and personality!
I love the body diversity of the woman's ensemble, but I wish there was some of that with the men too. All the men have the same brawny mesomorphic build.
the girl in the middle with the black skirt is literally KILLING IT her facial expressions ???? ICONIC!!!! that energy ???? FIREEEEEE i love her so much
i came here hoping to see mariah do "it's fiiiiiiine" but am disappointed to see they've changed it. everyone else was absolutely brilliant though so i can't complain much
About the end of Fearless being changed in this version for the tour cast: First off, I want to say I do love Regina’s part at the end of this song. The vocals are killer and it’s incredible. BUT, I have to give this new version some credit as I feel like it molds with the plot line better. In the old version, they’re all celebrating because Regina is out and they don’t have to worry about her being the “queen bee” of the school anymore. Then Regina walks in, the celebration quickly dies out, and she continues to call all of them immature and remind Cady with her song that it’s all fun until someone gets hurt. This keeps Regina on your mind, thinking she’s possibly going to do something or that this was her trying to protect herself at this time where she’s vulnerable by making a threat. In this new version, they’re still celebrating all the same, but this time they ignore Regina and continue celebrating. When Regina walks in she clearly still thinks everyone is immature (lmao stating the obvious) but she’s only coming back into the lunchroom to get her kalteen bars (rather than begin making any comments or jabs because she thinks they’re all being immature and she ignores them). This helps subtly remind you that she still hasn’t found out how the kalteen bars work yet. Plus, some of the audience likely won’t even notice her walking through (remember, not everyone is a theater kid that knows every star, their role, and where to try to look for them lol). This puts Regina completely under the radar leading up to World Burn. So now, further along in the musical when she finds out the kalteen bars’s true function, the audience will likely see it as just a humor point and possibly a way of dismissing the character (Regina) more, rather than an important plot point. A few scenes later, World Burn will start and will have a much more astonishing effect because it’s likely a lot less people were expecting it. ...If any of you actually read all of this comment, thank you! Secondly, I don’t know how you have that attention span. 😂😂
I just saw my old comment from 7 months ago about being so excited for the musical coming to Colorado and bow I can’t see it because of dumb covid. I am actually crying
I wish I could see the tour. This is so great. Not to mention I’m a huge Mariah fan. I would also like to see more of the girl in the pinky-red cami and black skirt. She dances so well.
2:06 That solo is beautiful. I'm so sad we can't see her because she deserves recognition And also I wasn't sure about this Cady until this happened 3:43 and...... okay I love her now
I think I may prefer the broadway version ending with the Someone gets hurt reprise, simply because it sets the more negative tone of Act two. It’s gorgeous though, everyone was so good!
I see that girl in the pink shirt and black skirt and I see her and I just think... Tracy Turnblad. I'd fly to New York to see her perform Tracy on broadway. And I'm from the Netherlands. I just love her Dancing and acting. And her energy OMGGG!!
If anyone from the comments below still cares, I just saw this on tour (2022), and they added back in the Someone Gets Hurt reprise. Same actresses for Cady, Gretchen, and Karen too
Megan’s (Gretchen) energy gives me life omg!! Like her expressions, stage presence, passion and everything is just perfect! Also who’s the girl in the black skirt because she’s amazing!!
Thank God I’m not the only one who’s excited to see him lol all the comments are like “MARIAH!” Which I totally agree with but like Sky’s got talent too!
3:30 love it. Like sooo much. I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched that new part. They should add to to broadway. Even tho they’ve froze the show. But whatever

The "New Karen" was actually the understudy for Kate Rockwell on Broadway for Mean Girls!
Ricky M yessss we love Jonalyn
amyisaway it’s Jonalyn, the Karen standby from broadway :)
@Skyler Keck yeah she walks through at the end
Your all gonna hate me but why does it matter what size the girl is
Who else is here to see EVEN A LITTLE BIT of Mariah Rose Faith as Regina?
I WAS EXPECTING THAT
Kristina Cabello Regina isn’t in fearless
@@lizadxms yeah she is
Astro Wiz shit you right I forgot abt the end my bad
wait shes in mean girls? ! ? !

Justin Selig exactly!!! she is so talented
ME TOO! I was gonna say that
Ikrr
her energy was insane !!!!
She is so awesome! She recently played Tracy Turnblad, and I got to see her in a couple community theater type shows. She always kills it and has the best energy and personality!
mariah was on for like 5 seconds and i still screamed i love her so much
Andie Quintos where? i can’t find her
JustEm She enters at 3:50
You and me both.
Lemme guess starkid fan
I’m singing for her in 2 weeks I think I might cry
I THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY A COINCIDENCE THAT THE GIRL PLAYING REGINA LOOKED LIKE MARIAH. OH LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT MY BABY MARIAH WOULD BE IN THE SHOW
i like how you can constantly hear their shoes squeaking
I never noticed until you pointed it out. Now I cannot unheard it.
and the cameras!
C. Moore same
bruh who told both casts of mean girls to be so talented
I like how Janis and Damien are in the background just watching and then Janis takes a piggyback ride on Damien’s back at 1:09
Gianfranco when
@@amorhedera6 1:09
We love a true MLM & WLW solidarity
Gianfranco I cant find them anywhere lol
Tabitha D watch the left side
I love the body diversity of the woman's ensemble, but I wish there was some of that with the men too. All the men have the same brawny mesomorphic build.
Especially since their Damien fits that category too...
have you seen the show?? Regina gets lifted, they have to lift, move and push heavy props, you can’t just have anyone for it
I mean you’re right but the men have to lift Regina A LOT in the show so they kinda have to be strong. Still, I do with there was more body diversity
@@montyg8225 Bigger people, shorter people can all be strong. They don't have to have perfect physiques to lift.
@@collinkilloran5721 have you seen strongmen???? they do not look like models lmao
I freaking love Jonalyn Saxer as Karen.
She's soo talented ;_;
Her singing in the line "no emotional trouble" gives me chills each time I watch this
@@itskass3146 I thought it was emotional trauma lol
She portrays Karen so well. I love her as Karen!
I saw the tour in September and she was FANTASTIC as Karen omg sexy was just amazing
WOW the girl playing Gretchen was phenomenal during the dance break!!!
Imagine being able to call this your job WOW
RIGHT?!?!?
Mariah was on screen for like, 2 seconds and still killed it
Where?
@@user-ww3ty5ge3z around 3:48

Thanks
@Sage Markham
Well, well, well...Somebody needs to calm down.
@Sage Markham 'the fuck lol
"YASSS KAREN!!!" I stan the girl who said that.
the girl in the middle with the black skirt is literally KILLING IT her facial expressions ???? ICONIC!!!! that energy ???? FIREEEEEE i love her so much
She falls out of her turns
JONALYN THAT CHOREOGRAPHY IN HEELS
MEGAN TOO I LOVE THEM ACK
Danielle Wade's belt could defeat Thanos.
never make a joke about thanos on a broadway channel. also anyone can defeat thanos because he is fake af
Ricky M just wait until he snaps
@@kpoptrash3388 what does that mean?
@@rickym242 go search up the thanos snap
Ricky M i cant tell if ur joking-
The girl in the black skirt is so precious her energy is EVERYTHING
AGREED
YES SHES PLAYING REGINA
@@mhm6985 The original commenter is referring to an Ensemble member, not Regina
Danielle wade finally getting her big break makes me the happiest
i came here hoping to see mariah do "it's fiiiiiiine" but am disappointed to see they've changed it. everyone else was absolutely brilliant though so i can't complain much
Same
they probably cut it for the press! it fits with the story most in the show :)
@@saracqke No, unfortunately - I saw the tour in October and that whole sequence is cut with Mariah. I'm not sure why
Danielle was is so loveable! That’s what makes a good Cady, just like Erika
Everyone hyping up Karen with her ribbon is unexplainably wholesome
2:45 I love Megan’s energy just jumping in and going for it
Yay love you Mariah
And that's the leading lady you need carrying the show
NO ONE TOLD ME SKY FLAHERTY WAS IN MEAN GIRLS
THERE'S A NEW PART OF THE SONG
Thérèse Dueñas YES
LITERALLY IN LOVE WITH IT
It’s actually old, it’s from the DC run😂 I still live it lol
@@babeebobo8343 There's a new part after that! "It feels like a morning and Cady's the sun..."
I've heard DC audios and that's new
it's a recurring bit that Cady sings. It's in It Roars too and I think in I See Stars aswell
I just love this Gretchen. Megan is perfect for the role. :3
Mariah: *walks out and grabs a box*
me: AMAZING PERFORMANCE. BEST IVE EVER SEEN. A TRUE TALENT. PAVED THE WAY FOR EVERY PERFORMER
why did it take me, a BIG fansie, 10 seconds of the video paused and me staring to realizing that Sky Flaherty was in the background in the beginning-
WAIT A MINUTE IS THAT SKY!??? IM GOING TO GO SEE THIS CAST GOD I HOPW THATS HIM!!!
is anyone else kinda in love with danielle and her voice
IT'S SKY, THE REASON THE SUN SHINES
Look at sky flaherty just being wonderful
0:24 The cameraman’s like “Oh shit she’s coming” 😂
“MOVE BACK NOW, KAREN IS COMING”
I really love this Choreo, its so fun and energetic. It looks like t would be so fun to learn and perform

RockerIsCringe _ I agree. This is why I preferred Act 2 of the DC show to Act 2 of the broadway version
Oh my god Meghan, Jonalyn, and Danielle is everything I’ve ever wanted 🥺🥺
Makes my heart happy to finally see Sky again
1:12 Dani’s growl just restored my faith in humanity
mean girls is just the place where the old newboys go... and i LOVE IT
New drinking game: take a shot whenever they do a high kick
everyone else is here for mariah meanwhile i'm over here screaming "MR. FLAHERTY" every five seconds
this gretchen has so much stage presence
This sounds like Newsies at some points and honestly I love it.
I LOVE BOTH MUSICALS !!!
Sky's in here!
@@atashacamama6747 lol I was just gonna say "as im staring at Sky"
Jonalyns belt on emotional trouble was just *insert chefs kiss*
This version is incredible! I wish I could see this tour!!
MEGAN MASAKO IS FANTASTIC.
I just saw my old comment from 7 months ago about being so excited for the musical coming to Colorado and bow I can’t see it because of dumb covid. I am actually crying
props to the actor for karen she did that entire thing in heels
I love how I instantly recognise Mariahs outfit from tgwdlm rehearsal
i LOVE megan as gretchen SO MUCH!! personally i think that her voice is perfect for the part and she looks the part too!
I wish I could see the tour. This is so great. Not to mention I’m a huge Mariah fan. I would also like to see more of the girl in the pinky-red cami and black skirt. She dances so well.
2:06 That solo is beautiful. I'm so sad we can't see her because she deserves recognition
And also I wasn't sure about this Cady until this happened 3:43 and...... okay I love her now
Downstage Right hey i watch all your beetlejuice lyric videos
Downstage Right OLIVIA RENTERIA AKAKSKAKIJESKAZ
Downstage Right JAJAKAIAM DID U HEAR HER IN THE BEGINNING
As much I love the original Broadway, but this updated version is incredible. I understand how they changed the scene of this number, it made sense. 😊
HOLY CRAP I LOVE THIS CAST
Wait, Sky Flaherty is in the ensemble???? i didn’t think I could love this cast anymore but apparently I can wow
For personal reference: 2:45
MARIAH IS SO GOOD WTF
The girl in the pink and black literally had all my attention also you can’t help but love Karen no matter who plays her😂
I love Dani Wade more than words could possibly express 🥺
I think I may prefer the broadway version ending with the Someone gets hurt reprise, simply because it sets the more negative tone of Act two. It’s gorgeous though, everyone was so good!
That Cady could be an AMAZING Campbell (Bring It On)
Girl in the red shorts is giving me LIFE
I see that girl in the pink shirt and black skirt and I see her and I just think... Tracy Turnblad. I'd fly to New York to see her perform Tracy on broadway. And I'm from the Netherlands. I just love her Dancing and acting. And her energy OMGGG!!
The harmonies in this are COMPLETELY UNREAL.
Mariah just walking through glaring at Danielle is everything
I'm going to see this cast in November!! So excited!
i remember watching this when it was first posted and being so excited bc i was going to see it in 2020. that didnt work out lol
The passion in this is amazing, both the vocals and the acting!!!
If anyone from the comments below still cares, I just saw this on tour (2022), and they added back in the Someone Gets Hurt reprise. Same actresses for Cady, Gretchen, and Karen too
Karen is hilarious! Also cool new part
Mariah Rose Faith was in this video for 27 seconds and yet she still captured my heart. Also Danielle is amazing and Mary Kate is a goddess.
Everyone’s talking about Mariah while I’m over here talking about Sky 😂
WAS THAT MARIAH FROM STARKID
yep!
Our Queen is back
I could not watch the performance as a whole because I was sooooo captivated by the girl dancing in pink tank and black skirt !!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾💓
I see u Sky
This choreography is amazing!! I love this cast and the dancing!
Here for Danielle Wade! And hoping to catch the show somewhere!
I’m seeing this in October!! SO PUMPED!!!
Courtnoel H pleas stall me you are seeing it on October 3rd!! “On October 3rd Aaron Samuels asked me what day it was.” 😂
Omg fun!! Me too!! What show are you going to?
Megan’s (Gretchen) energy gives me life omg!! Like her expressions, stage presence, passion and everything is just perfect! Also who’s the girl in the black skirt because she’s amazing!!
i saw this live and it was better than i ever couldve imagined
front left in the the black skirt BODIED THAT SHIT 😤
The girl in the coral tank and black skirt is killing it
Literally so freaking excited for when I see it in tour in Denver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IS THAT SKY I SEE
Ruthanne Downey Right!!!!! I’m so excited to meet him!!!
YES AND HE'S PLAYING THE SAME ROLE THAT BEN DID
I am crying because of freaking sky he is the literal reason the sun shines
Rowan Spivey haha yesssss
Thank God I’m not the only one who’s excited to see him lol all the comments are like “MARIAH!” Which I totally agree with but like Sky’s got talent too!
this is so exciting!!! I can't wait to see the show!!
As soon as Mariah walked out from behind the white background my eyes immediately switched to her lmaoo
3:45 Mariah enters
3:30 love it. Like sooo much. I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched that new part. They should add to to broadway. Even tho they’ve froze the show. But whatever
Annabel J IKR! I’m obsessed! I like the tour version of this song better than the Broadway one!
this cast is so cute!!!!!!!!!! im in love!!!!!!!!
Go Asia!!!
Lemme just quickly point out, ITS SKYBELLE!
I cannot WAIT so see this show!
The dancing at 2:44 especially the girl the way she jumps in is just so cool to me for some reason
Can’t believe they remove the Someone Gets Hurt reprise of Regina, that’s the real close of the first act, and it’s way better than this song
Saul Carrillo they may just have not blocked it and that’s a separate song. this is the Fearless preview not the Someone Gets Hirt reprise preview
they had to cut a few things for the tour version, I'm pretty sure. The bits where Cady sings her thoughts are also cut and a few other minor things
I how Janice gets on Damian’s back and walks away
When you see Sky 🙂
Maggie Jane which one is sky? I’m kinda dumb
Thatonetheaterkid red hair kinda 0:03 he is in the tank in the corner
When all Mariah does during this number is walk on stage for two seconds and still manages to steal the whole goddamn show
