Why McAdams’s introduction matters
McAdams played Regina George in the original 2004 Mean Girls film. Rapp played Regina in the newer movie musical after performing the role on Broadway. McAdams’s introduction therefore links the original screen Regina to the version Rapp has played on stage and in the newer film. Readers searching for “Rachel McAdams introduces Reneé Rapp” are looking for that handoff, and it is the detail that separates this segment from an ordinary musical-guest spot.
The soundtrack
“Not My Fault” appears on Mean Girls (Music from the Motion Picture), the 2024 movie musical soundtrack. It is a different album from the 2004 film’s soundtrack, so check the release year when buying. Interscope lists the standard soundtrack in vinyl and CD formats, and Reneé Rapp’s official store lists the standard vinyl. Pricing and stock change over time, and this article did not verify current availability.
