*Heather Chandler - Regina George

Blonde mega-bitch who dominates their minions and picks on others.

*Heather Duke - Gretchen Weiners

https://heathers.fandom.com/wiki/Heather_Duke

Quieter and submissive follower. Eventually starts to rebel against the leader of the clique but in different ways. Heather D steps up as leader when Chandler dies and becomes bitchier. Gretchen tells Regina's secrets, which can be used against her by Cady, Damien and Janis.

*Heather McNamara - Karen Smith

https://heathers.fandom.com/wiki/Heather_McNamara

Airheaded and ditzy member of the clique. Although Heather M is not stupid like Karen, she has more of a ditzy air about her which makes me call her the Karen-type of the clique.

*Veronica Sawyer - Cady Heron

https://heathers.fandom.com/wiki/Veronica_Sawyer

Outsider of the group, who joins the clique but leaves her real friends behind (Betty Finn/Janis and Damien). Veronica is in the clique but doesn't like their attitude. Cady specifically joins the clique to take it down.

So much in Mean Girls reminds me of Muriel’s Wedding.
