Lindsay Lohan Honors Alicia Silverstone’s Clueless Plaid While Promoting Freaky Friday

Lindsay Lohan Honors Alicia Silverstone’s Clueless Plaid While Promoting Freaky Friday

Lindsay Lohan brought the sunshine with her as she stepped out in New York City early Monday morning. 

The glamorous actress, 39, had her A-game style-wise, with an ode to a popular ’90s film focused on fashion and romance.

Wearing a pastel yellow and black bouclé tweed mini-dress with long sleeves and a pair of high-heel yellow sandals, the Hollywood Film Award winner bore a great resemblance to Alicia Silverstone’s Cher in the 1995 romantic comedy Clueless. 

Lohan pulled her long, blonde locks away from her face with a yellow headband, and wore camera-ready makeup behind her dark, round sunglasses as she arrived at the Good Morning America studio.

After seeing the clip on Lohan’s and GMA’s Instagram, several people pointed out that she looked like the Clueless character, but some said she was also ‘giving Parent Trap vibes!!’ as they shared a clip of her character Hallie Parker.  

Lohan and her Freakier Friday co-star, Jamie Lee Curtis, got up in the wee hours of the morning to talk about their new comedy which debuts August 8 in theaters. 

The film is a sequel to their 2003 hit body-switch comedy Freaky Friday.

Curtis, 66, who looked elegant in a pink pant suit with black heels, explained that it took so long for a sequel to take place, because Lohan, who is the mother of a two-year-old son, had to be old enough to ostensibly be the mother of a teen-age daughter.

The Oscar winner said when that happened, it gave her the opportunity to lobby Disney about it and she went straight to the top. 

‘I’ve known Bob Iger since since ABC, like early ABC when I was on Anything But Love, and I wrote him an e-mail and he called me and we talked and now here we are.’

Even though the projects were two decades apart, Lohan said, ‘when we started, it felt like it was yesterday.’

‘We’ve known each other for so long and we’re friends off screen and I think that’s the beauty of being able to make Freakier Friday, is you don’t get to work to often with people that you genuinely love, so it didn’t feel as much like work as it normally would.’

In this new comedy there’s a four-way switch. 

‘Lohan’s Anna is a music producer with a 15-year-old daughter. She is engaged to Eric, played by Manny Jacinto, who has a teen-age daughter too. 

The future step-sisters don’t get along, and Curtis’ Tess, is ‘still micro-managing me as a mom,’ according to Lohan, and thus chaos ensues when the four end up walking in another person’s shoes.

The film features a lot of physical comedy, which Lohan gladly engages in. 

‘Any time I can have a Lucille Ball moment on-screen, I want to take that to my advantage because you don’t often see a lot of women doing so much physical comedy.’

‘Everyone gets so nervous, and they call in five stunt coordinators so no one gets hurt, and it’s like, it’s fine guys.’

Lohan said she enjoyed putting her experience as a mom into her character. ‘ I wanted Anna to be portrayed a little bit softer in this.,’ she explained.

She also added that Anna had become a little more like Curtis’ character Tess. 

Curtis said Freakier Friday was a must-see because ‘this movie is at a time when people need happiness and joy, I might cry,’ she explained getting misty briefly before continuing, ‘and family and love and connection.’

‘And that’s what we need right now, and boy, are we delivering it in a beautiful movie’.
