Interviewer Andy Cohen seemed very taken aback by the "Mean Girls" star's comments.
Reneé Rapp is winning raves for her portrayal of Regina George in the new iteration of “Mean Girls,” but one of her recent interview comments has some fans questioning whether she’s taking her on-screen role a little too seriously.
Appearing on “Watch What Happens Live” this weekend, the 24-year-old actor and singer acknowledged being “very ageist” while addressing her admiration for “Real Housewives of Potomac” star Karen Huger, 60.
