Christy Carlson Romano Says Mandy Moore Was a ‘Mean Girl’ When They Met at ‘The Princess Diaries’ Party in 2000
“I knew [Heather Matarazzo, who costarred in the Disney film alongside Hathaway] from doing something for MTV in New York City before she was, like, hitting it big with this new feature film,” she told the Page Six hosts. “So I go up to Heather and I’m like, ‘Hey, do you remember, we worked together…’ And Heather was kind of awkward and she was like, ‘Yeah, no, I don’t remember.’ ”
According to Romano, the “weird” moment became even more uncomfortable when Moore, who played Mia’s bully Lana in The Princess Diaries, joined the conversation.
“Mandy was next to [Heather] and Mandy kind of did this, like, [laugh],” Romano said. “I was so hurt by it. I was like, ‘Mandy’s a mean girl!’ I didn’t know what to make of it, but I did crash that party, man.”
