“Apex Predator” | Mean Girls on Broadway 

Well, Veronica changed her name and rode up to Seattle..

Heathers: if you lack the balls you can go play dolls Mean girls: dont be fooled by the pink she is not playing dolls

Barrett just can’t escape high school can she?😂

I’ve seen a lot of comparisons between Heather Chandler and Regina George and even though they are very similar they get what they want through very different ways. Heather is much more aggressive and is more likely to fight or confront you directly. Regina is much sneakier and more manipulative, using gossip and underhanded tactics. One uses brute strength, the other uses mind games. To beat heather you need to throw the stronger punch, to beat Regina you need to become the manipulator. They are both wonderful queen bees who I believe would be fantastic fake friends 😋

“FINE! Go braid her hair!”

how does barrett belt that every night

Barrett's shirt says "not today Satan" and I think we should be discussing that

Is it just ne or does the costuming and hair for Karen looks more like Regina than Regina does

All the comments are about Barrett and she is amazing don't get me wrong but can we show some love to Erika

Imagine the Plastics and Heather's meeting and Barrett being like "Nope...nope not dealing with that" (wow forgot I wrote this! Thanks for the likes and comments ^_^)

Real talk, I wanna give some applause to the pit orchestra, the set crew, the lights team, the props team, the costume and makeup team, and the extras. They put so much effort into making the show great and get like no credit

How can Barrett put SO much emotion into her voice while keeping a straight face?? Like, her voice says I'm screaming my heart out because I'm dying and her face says there's nothing inside because I'm already dead.

Finally another decent female duet in musical theatre

how are their voices so angelic?

Singing “will she eat your hair?” at the top of my lungs: not my proudest moment.

0:43 WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT BARRET'S LITTLE CLAWS

YES PLEASE BARRETTS LITTLE DANCES..... ALSO BARRETT AND ERIKAS VOICES BLEND SO WELL

Barrett was snubbed by not getting that Featured Actress Nom

Is no one gonna mention Gretchen at 1:26 . . .

I LOVE it when Erika sings the word "Exotic"

01:04 so cute! The harmonization at the end, damn!

JANIS] Don’t be fooled by the pink She is not playing dolls She is stalking the halls For the thrill of the kill Every person in school Is aware of her stare When she tosses her hair They go perfectly still All their eyes say, “don’t attack me.” Watch them sweat and pant and shake Every food chain has its acme Regina George eats steak She’s the queen of the beasts She can smell your fear In this biosphere She’s the apex predator Like a lionesses Only with less fur Do not mess with her She’s the apex predator [CADY] At the watering hole See the girls who weren't nice Have to scatter like mice From a jungle cat And though Janis is great She does not have this power People literally cower Janis can’t do that See us mark our territory As I follow in her train I was victim, I was quarry Now I shake my mane She’s the queen of beasts And I’m in her pride I have hitched a ride With the apex predator And it’s kinda fun When she bares her claws When I'm safe because I'm with the apex predator Did I think I'd be protected by my new exotic pet Not a chance if she suspected I was any kind of reproductive threat But she doesn't know yet [JANIS & CADY] No, she doesn't know yet She's the queen of beasts At this beastly school Gotta keep things cool With the apex predator [CADY] So I'm kinda friends [JANIS] But you're kind of prey [CADY] Jesus, what a day [JANIS & CADY] With the apex predator Will she braid your hair Will she eat your heart How can you outsmart The apex predator

Wish they did this one at the Tonys!

Cady singing “Janice can’t do that” makes a lot more sense in this version. Instead of Damian in the movie. Cady is becoming entranced and is already drawing comparisons.

Can we just... Ashley freaking Park waving her arms like a bird is my favorite thing ever. besides the harmonies throughout this whole freaking song!!! Yes Jeff Richmond and Nell Benjamin! Way to go on the Tonys!

the red scrunchie on her rist is giving me heathers flashbacks

barret looks like she’s not even trying and she’s hitting all these high notes like omg 🥺🥺

I love how this song gives a glimpse into Cady’s psychology and why she wants to be in the pride

Hang on there’s a red scrunchie on cady’s wrist

regina george doesn't even need to sing in the most iconic song, it just needs to be about her, what power

Don’t get me wrong I love Barrett but can we give Erika some love Without being negative towards Barrett. I’m liking my own comment bc no one else will

the fact that Barrett is just casually wearing a "not today satan" shirt is just WOW.

0:45 Barret the Dinosaur 🦖

BARRETT IS BACK IN THE TYPICAL HIGH SCHOOL HELL RUN BY 3 BITCHES WOOOOO AHAHAHAAHHA AMAZING

This version is more dynamic than the version in the movie adaptation.

erika is so pretty but also such a great singer I’m so gay hdjdjdjsjs

um okay i would like to point out the harmonies, the talent of them both, and simply everything about this. i only know of barrett well but erika blew me away as well.

I didn't love this song at first. But I've really come to love it! The metaphors are fantastic and Barrett's tone is gorgeous and Erika just completes it all.

EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT BARRETT AND ERIKA, AND YEAH THEY'RE GREAT BUT THE ENSEMBLE IS INCREDIBLE

This is menacing af and I live for it

Ive only heard 2 songs so far and i swear that the mean girls musical is already my favorite musical

heathers: FINE! go braid her hair! mean girls: will she braid your hair?

So much better then the film version❤

YESSSSSSSSSSSS I WOULD LIKE ALL OF THESE VIDEOS RIGHT NOW PLEASE.

I. Need. To. See. This. Show.

Veronica and Janis are the same age. She changed her name and rode up to Seattle and instead of being with the mean girls she's warning Cady not to do what she did in her past life (join the mean group) Lmao this is a joke don't @ me

Y'all be talking about Barrett and Erika, but can we just talk about the whole production crew?

When Barrett loves the riff at 1:04 as much as the rest of us

BARRETT DESERVED A TONY NOM

Why does janis just have all of the bops

Gotta love the subtitles: She can smell [applause] [music] 0:51

i’m amazed that barrett can still belt this flawlessly after heathers. no matter how powerful ur voice is, singing and belting the numbers from heathers 8x a week does serious damage

I love it that even though Barret is trying to come as intimidating, she is still the definition of adorkable.

I don't love that the movie took this song away from Cady and gave her part to Damian... doesn't make much sense other than they cut "Where Do You Belong?" so they wanted to give him a chance to sing on something besides "Revenge Party."

video: mean girls comments: Veronica Sawyer 🤣

I want to be Barrett Wilbert Weed when I grow up

i am screaming

Barrett Wilbert Weed could punch me square in my jaw and I'd thank her

I love how Barrett's shirt said "Not today Satan"

Ugh Barrett is really killing me here,,, ahhh,,,,,

Gotta love how Barrett sings the lower notes and Erika ye higher ones. It just blends so well, I'mma cry.

God their voices blend so well together...

no one: barrett & erika: are talented

Barrett is always singing her ass off , this duo was bad ass❤️

Here to cleanse my ears after the atrocity that was the movie version. Barrett and Erika, you will always be famous.

2:42 harmony yes!!!

nobody: cady: by my new exAaUgHtic pet

barrett's little hand motions when she sings what a cutie

BARRET WILBUR WEED IS A GODESS!!!!!

2:05 That's Heather's scrunchie!!

I feel like the actress dresses more like Janice than in the mysical

The times I’ve watched this is unhealthy

WILL SHE EAT YOUR HAIR WILL SHE BRAID YOUR HEART

I was friend with the "apex predator" of my high school, she was the most vulnerable person I known. I never saw her hurt anybody but everybody was saying that she was the beautiful and mean girl of the school. She was suffering from all the rumors spreading about her and well, she was friend with me, a "little greasy nobody" and she was really kind to me even if I wasn't the kind of girl who can be popular. Some of her friends were awfull but she never took their sides :(

Erika & Barrett are both so freaking talented, but I'm also here to soak up any Taylor Louderman as Regina clips I can find.

Barrett’s shirt is my life

ok but that trombone man was probably the happiest person ive ever seen

Barrett makes this song look so effortless

The little paws she does at "Regina George eats steak" gets me every time. I love it and that line so much. 😍

oh I'm obsessed with this song, I need the album oh lord

I love how Barrett is absolutely killing it but looks like she isn't even trying. Like, she is going all in, but she looks so relaxed and nonchalant. Truly Janis.

See now this is masterpiece of a song the movie didnt even come close to replicsting

I love how barett's t shirt says 'not today satan'

*I came as soon as i heard...* wait wrong musical

2:53 *insert candy store flash backs*

the professional filming on stage means a pro shot with the original cast exists SOMEWHERE

I just noticed Barrett's "Not Today Satan" shirt😂

Tina Fey, my girl, please release an Instrumental Album. These orchestrations are to die for

IF I WAS RICH ENOUGH ID BOOK A FLIGHT TO THE US TO SEE THIS BUT I CANT SINCE IM A POOR HS STUDENT FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD SCREAMS SHOW ME E V E R Y S O N G STAT

i’m literally shooketh. this was my favorite song in the entire show

The plastic, heathers, and the Schuyler sister. Imagine that Edit: I should probably mentioned something about the schuyler sister. You should probably do more history on the schuyler sisters and they're actual family history because hamilton wasn't exactly accurate

BARRET IS MY QUEEEENNNN

Im still confused on how she didn't get a freaking Tony nomination

Barrett slays every single show she is in

Lemme tell you I saw this on Broadway recently and I knew absolutely nothing about Mean Girls. I didn't know the music or the story. I purposefully avoided everything Mean Girls when I found out I was seeing it. I heard one of the songs sorta on the Tony's and I flat out sprinted downstairs because I heard Barret's voice. First off, Erika is the sweetest person ever and was a joy to meet and talk with. They had her mic turned down for this song, but dude she did so good the whole show. But Barrett. It's one thing to hear her in a recording studio or on a track, but man is it different live. She's a powerhouse and I got chills every time she opened her mouth to sing. It was a really good show, and I'd see it again probably.

heather duke: *VERONICA WHAT ARE YOU DOING THERE THE HEATHERS ARE WAITING FOR YOU!!*

The one dislike is Regina

After Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel, I can't hear this song without picturing Octavia warning Charlie from Alastor lol

Barrett Wilbert Weed is, everything. Just everything. 😍

You can just see the regret in her face when she sings this on stage. Great singer and actress
