Amanda Seyfried believes Paramount owe her money for Mean Girls merchandise.
The 39-year-old actress - who played Karen Smith in the 2004 movie - loves the enduring popularity of the teen comedy but admitted she feels "a little resentful" because her fact appears on so many T-shirts and she doesn't get any royalties for the use of her likeness.
Asked if she has rewatched the film, she told Adam Brody for Variety's Actors on Actors series: "No. It's on often enough though. I love it. I really love seeing my face on people's T-shirts.
"I'm a little resentful because Paramount still owes me some money for the likeness. Every store sells Mean Girls T-shirts with our faces.
Amanda questioned if she missed out on extra revenue because she was young and "dumb" when she signed her contract for the film.
She said: "Don't I [get something from that]? Is it because I was 17 and dumb? Or is it..?' "

But Amanda is always grateful when she meets fans of the film.
She said: "Even the girl at TSA tells me it's her favourite movie. I'm like, 'Great! I had nothing to do with it, I was 17...'"
Meanwhile, the Mamma Mia star - who has two children with husband Thomas Sadoski - thinks she is "allergic" to marijuana, though she had some enjoyable times consuming the drug with Adam.
Reminiscing about visiting a beach when they filmed 'Jennifer's Body', she said: "I don't know if I could do pot again. I think I'm allergic to it. I had some bad experiences.
"But I remember that being the most peaceful. That was probably the last time. I might have also gotten stoned with you at your house that I now own.
"I think the only time I've enjoyed pot was with you, so thank you. You have an effect on people. Look at what's happening: You're in a hit show, and people are gasping, 'Adam Brody'."

The Nobody Wants This star quipped: "I don't think it's pot-related."
Amanda agreed: "No, it's just that you make people feel at ease."
Adam said: "I really appreciate that, I think because I'm pretty attuned to people's discomfort because I'm in touch with my own, so I don't think I'm a bad host in that way."

Yellowstone 1923 actress tearfully pays tribute to late co-star as she scoops major award
Aminah Nieves stars in the hit Paramount prequel series as Teonna Rainwater Aminah Nieves, star of 1923, delivered an emotional acceptance speech after being awarded the Breakthrough Performance Award at the 2025 IndieWire Honors in Hollywood. The popular Yellowstone prequel delves into the backstory of Paramount's renowned ranching family a century prior to the events depicted in the epic modern Western. In the series, Nieves portrays Teonna Rainwater, a young Apsáalooke woman subjected to an abusive American Indian boarding school operated by the Catholic Church. Viewers have been captivated by Teonna's narrative, which sees her violently break free from the school and go on the run, only to be apprehended for murder in the second season. After the dramatic series finale in April, Nieves graciously accepted her IndieWire award, becoming visibly emotional during her impactful speech, reports the Mirror US. "I am extremely humbled and honoured to be recognised for my work at these early stages of my career," she expressed amidst enthusiastic applause from the audience. "None of this would be possible without the love and support from the very people in this room." She proceeded to express gratitude towards her parents for "nourishing her wild heart" and her "bandmates" for their "unwavering love, dedication and support". Nieves then confessed that she was "nobody" until her manager, Jonathan Yue, discovered her and "took a chance". The rising star concluded by expressing her appreciation to the cast and crew of the Yellowstone franchise, including its creator, Taylor Sheridan and Mo Brings Plenty. After making a heartfelt appeal to "amplify stories like Teonna's" Nieves' speech turned more poignant as she commemorated her late co-star, Cole Brings Plenty. The burgeoning actor and nephew of Mo Brings Plenty, aged 27, was tragically found dead in Kansas last April after his family had reported him missing. She began: "To Coco, my brother, Cole Brings Plenty," followed by an exuberant "woo!" upon realising the emotional weight of her words was bringing tears. Nieves continued, her voice heavy with emotion: "The very essence of you reverberated off the waters and the trees every single day on set," struggling to maintain composure. "You carried us home the only way you knew how to, fully in love, in deep belly laughs." She concluded with a wish: "Until I see you again, let Coco's story be a reminder to all of the continued injustices throughout Indian country and across the globe." Following her acclaimed performance in the popular Yellowstone prequel, Nieves has since secured a role in a forthcoming thriller directed by none other than Kathryn Bigelow. Expected to be released later this year, a synopsis reads: "Centered on White House staffers grappling with an impending missile strike on America, this gripping drama unfolds in real-time as tensions escalate."

OnlyFans confirms Bonnie Blue 'permanent ban' after porn star's latest sex stunt
Adult star Bonnie Blue, known for having sex with 1,057 men in a day, has been 'permanently banned' from OnlyFans for posting and intending to make 'extreme' content. This comes after the Derbyshire porn star was planning to break her own world record by sleeping with 2,000 men in a single day in a stunt she was branding a 'petting zoo'. An OnlyFans spokesperson told Metro: 'Extreme challenge content is not available on OnlyFans and is not permitted under our Acceptable Use Policy and Terms of Service. 'Any breach of our Terms of Service results in content or account deactivation… This is why it has been necessary to take this action. We always act when users breach our terms of service.' When Metro asked how long Bonnie's ban will be in place for, OnlyFans replied: 'The ban is permanent.' She has since revealed her 'petting zoo' stunt has been cancelled. OnlyFans has been valued at £8 billion thanks to its adult content creators — the same value as film studios, Paramount. The creators on the platform keep 80% of the money their subscriptions generate — which means Bonnie could be about to lose out on the £600,000 she claims to make each month. Back in 2021, OnlyFans had even announced it was going to ban all adult content from its platform, but this ban lasted six days before the company U-turned. Bonnie's decision to join OnlyFans in 2021 stemmed from the fact that she wasn't feeling happy with the direction her life was going in – and wanted a new challenge. She previously told Metro that she had given up on her dreams of being a midwife because she didn't want to stay in education, so she began working in recruitment. 'I thought, is this what my life is going to be? I realised I wasn't happy with 80% of my life. I didn't want to get old thinking I wish I'd done more,' she explained. Once she realised it wasn't for her, she sold her house and moved to Australia to live a 'beach lifestyle.' Using her savings, she was able to give up work for two years. Not wanting her time in Oz to be the only 'highlight' of her life, she first began working as a cam girl, inspired by other women doing the same thing online. Almost instantly, she was earning £2,030 a week. 'I loved it – it gave me so much confidence,' she said. But it was her antics last year that placed Bonnie firmly in the spotlight, when she posted call outs for 'barely legal' teens or 'schoolies', to sleep with her, setting herself up in student-heavy areas in the UK. All encounters were filmed, even if she was taking the teen's virginity, which caused outrage online and earned her the label of a predator. She has refuted these claims and says her content is educational. Bonnie took her content to the next level on January 11, when she slept with 1,057 men in a single day. The 25-year-old OnlyFans star announced her record-breaking sex marathon with an inflammatory Instagram caption, writing: 'Over 1,000 men in a day! Thank you to all the barely legal, barely breathing and the husbands.' The sex worker thanked the men who took part, saying: '1,057 isn't possible without volunteers… thanks for the fluids boys. 'Honestly thank you so much because if it wasn't for you turning up putting your **** inside me I wouldn't have any of this whatsoever, and it really has changed my life. Hopefully I can continue pleasuring you.' Men were put into groups of five had two minutes with Bonnie collectively, while those who had sex with her alone had 30 to 45 seconds. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Every man had penetrative sex with the OnlyFans star, although some also chose to have oral sex with Bonnie too. It's this type of extreme content that has led OnlyFans to take the decision to ban the star from its platform. It's not just Onlyfans that have taken issue with Bonnie's extreme challenges. Sophie Rain, 20, a leading OnlyFans creator and co-founder of Bop House – a collective of OF creators, hit out at Bonnie telling The Blast: 'It's no longer women empowerment. 'It's shock value, and she's making a joke out of all of us. We built this space to take control of our bodies and our finances, not to fake pregnancies, weddings, or throw cake at strangers in the street.' It appears she's also alluding to the fake pregnancy stunt pulled by Bonnie's rival Lily Phillips, who hit headlines after sleeping with 101 men in a day. More Trending 'Brands don't take us seriously anymore. Media doesn't take us seriously,' Sophie added. 'I'm tired of explaining that not all of us are doing circus acts for views.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video British broadcaster Ashley Louise James also challenged Bonnie back in November on This Morning on her 'predatory pursuit of teenage boys and her antagonistic (and outdated) attitudes to women'. She followed up on Instagram, saying: 'Bonnie has openly bragged about have sex with 'fresh 18 year olds' and has described it as 'babysitting adults' and even declared that she 'loves taking virginities'. 'I find this behaviour disturbing and predatory. I also find it deeply disturbing and disgusting that there are so many men and boys willing to queue up and have sex with her.'

Big news for Tesco shoppers as F&F drops next 25% off sale with 'huge' update
Tesco has announced exciting news for F&F shoppers this week... Tesco fans, get excited– the summer 25% off F&F clothing sale has just landed in stores and it's a great chance to bag some serious bargains. Whether you're freshening up your summer wardrobe or after a couple of smart pieces for work, it's definitely time to plan that trolley dash. Taking place now until Sunday 15th, you still have plenty of time to make the most of the big savings. The discount covers all F&F adult fashion. The only things not included are shoes, accessories and slippers. Everything else? Fair game for anyone with a Tesco Clubcard. We're talking dresses, jeans, loungewear, activewear and loads more. Just a heads-up, though, with deals this good, sizes do go quickly. So if there's something you've had your eye on, don't leave it too late! Also, in huge news for the supermarket, for the very first time, you can shop the 25% off sale online as well as in-store. Up until last month, F&F clothing has only been available in select Tesco stores. And for the spring F&F sale that took place the other month, Clubcard users had to go in-store to pick up their favourite items at a discount. Now, you can shop a broad range of F&F clothing online AND get the sale event savings. So, what's a fashion editor shopping from the new-in F&F section? Though stock is dwindling fast, there's still plenty of gems to be found in the sale. We love F&F's Short Sleeve Contrast Detail Cardigan in Cream, now £14 (down from £22.50), which has a very Chanel-like look to it thanks to the cream colour and the black contrast trim. It's also ideal for this in-between weather we're seeing, and makes a great workwear choice. If cosiness is on your agenda, why not make your home relax-wear look a little more chic? The Cotton Rich Leopard Print Wide Leg Joggers, now £10 (down from £19.50), look like something you could wear out without raised eyebrows. They're comfy, casual and in a trending leopard print design. Another piece ideal for both warm days and colder mornings is the Pure Cotton Crochet Tie Front Cardigan in Cream, now £16 (was £25). Made from pure cotton, this long-sleeved cardigan is designed with a pretty tie front and intricate crochet pattern. Featuring a scalloped hem, it can be layered over a simple vest or your bikini top, if you're somewhere tropical. And speaking of tropical, the Striped Long Sleeve Beach Shirt in Navy, now £10 (was £16), is our ultimate pick for a holiday. It's perfect for wearing over a swimsuit to the beach, or wearing alone paired with some chic linen trousers for a dinner. All you're missing is some statement gold seashell earrings to make this a full look. Elsewhere in supermarket news, Mamma Mia! movie fans may want to take a trip to Sainsbury's, where the new summer collection blends Grecian tones with floaty silhouettes. With star pieces from £5, like the Blue Textured Plunge Swimsuit, £16, and Floral Linen Look Co-ord Shorts, £18, it's the perfect collection to help you prepare for a summer holiday.
