Is it just us, or is the foundational text that is Freaky Friday-and more importantly, Pink Slip, the pop-rock band at its center-suddenly everywhere again? Tik Tok is just one big Pink Slip mood board: the plaid pants, the grommet belts, the chunky hair highlights. Major artists like Olivia Rodrigo blatantly channel Pink Slip's angst; indie musicians MUNA even covered a Pink Slip song last year.
Honestly, it's not hard to see why. The songs, moody but upbeat numbers like "Take Me Away" and "Ultimate" (actually sung and recorded by Lindsay and fellow actors Christina Vidal and Haley Hudson), perfectly captured what it felt like to be a teenager with a lot of feelings in the early aughts. They also still feel shockingly relevant today, especially for a generation that's long since moved into adulthood and very much gets the struggle of doing the "same old stuff" every single day.
Plus, the band, more than any other part of the movie, pretty much launched Lindsay into our hearts and minds. Sure, she'd already played a precocious set of twins in The Parent Trap, endearing herself to little-kid fans. But as Freaky Friday's Anna Coleman, she became the cool older sister to those same fans and a hyper-relatable star to an entire generation of women dealing with their own adolescent rage. Now, Lindsay is suddenly everywhere you look again too (including *cough cough humble brag* on the cover of this very magazine a few issues ago), bringing this whole thing full circle.
So, yeah, why wouldn't we dive back into this seminal moment in pop culture history, via interviews with many of Freaky Friday's cast and crew (all conducted before the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes started)? Please enjoy this wild 20th-anniversary ride through the surprisingly juicy makings of a classic, while belting out the lyrics to "Take Me Away" at the top of your lungs in as nasally a voice as possible.
