The “Mean Girls” Character You Are, Based On Your Personality
“Mean Girls” has earned its place in pop culture history as one of the greatest chick flicks and teen comedies of all time, so much so that it got a musical remake for its 20th anniversary.
To celebrate our love for this iconic movie, here is a breakdown of each Mean Girls character based on the 16 Myers-Briggs personality types. (If you don’t already know your Myers-Briggs personality type, you can take the free test here).
ESFJ - Mrs. Heron
There’s a good chance you’re not a zoologist who just came back from a decade-long stay in Africa, but you’re hardworking and deeply passionate about your career. You love to help others and are likely the most talkative person in the room.
ISFJ - Ms. Norbury
Of all the many great things that define you, your kind heart sets you apart from others. You push others around you to be better (but not like a drug pusher, obviously) and aim to empower other women around you because you’re the ultimate girls' girl.
ESTJ - Regina George
Your leadership skills are top-notch, and you’re smart as a whip. While Regina uses these skills to terrorize North Shore High via the Burn Book, you have the power to use them for good. Some may think you’re uptight because you’re very passionate about your work and education, but you also bring the same passion to your friendships.
ISTJ - Plastic Cady Heron
When Cady becomes plastic, she loses the warmth that made her a likable character, but she gains a sense of confidence that she didn’t have before. Luckily for you, you know that the limit does not exist when it comes to kindness, and have a logical and pragmatic outlook on life.
ENTJ - Mrs. George
You’re the type of person who commands a room, proving that you’re not a regular gal, you’re a cool gal. You’re confident, bold, and fearless, but your hard exterior doesn’t mean that you’re not a softie deep down, and you’re always down to have a good time at happy hour.
INTJ - Principal Duval
Like Principal Duval, you’re smart, hilarious, and a fierce leader. Some may mistake you as high-strung, but you’re just perpetually annoyed that your sister named your nephew Anfernee instead of Anthony, and your heart is always in the right place.
ENTP - Karen Smith
Karen may be a little ditzy (who doesn’t know how to spell orange?), but she’s creative and has a great sense of humor. Like Karen, you always ask questions, but you know what a first cousin is and that it’s more than a 30% chance that it’s already raining.
INTP- Janice Ian
Some may judge you as cold at first, but a lot of that comes down to your ability to speak your mind, no matter how unpopular your opinion is. Despite your tough exterior, you’re deeply passionate and love spending time with your loved ones, soaking up each other’s awesomeness.
ESTP - Damian
You’ve always been the funniest person in your friend group and confident in your own skin. While you can be a tad impulsive, you’re always up for a good time and look on the bright side, which makes you an amazing friend. You also love Danny DeVito.
ISTP - Aaron Samuels
You don’t care what others think of you and aren’t one to follow a crowd, but that doesn’t mean that you don’t care about others around you. While you can be rebellious and stubborn, you’re incredibly creative and determined to achieve your personal and professional goals.
ESFP - Glen Coco
You’re the life of the party; it’s why you got not one, but four candy cane grams, while certain people (*cough* Gretchen) got none. The ESFP is known as the “entertainer” of personalities, and everyone wants to be around you to soak up your awesomeness. You go, Glen Coco!
ISFP - Feelings Girl
Yes, you have a lot of feelings, but who doesn’t want everyone to get along and eat a cake made of sunshine and rainbows? You’re intensely creative and kind and embrace your feminine energy, so you can sit with us.
ENFP - Gretchen Wieners
Your positive energy is infectious, so you can’t help it that you’re popular. Despite being a social butterfly, you only have a few close friends that you’re fiercely loyal to because you prefer quality over quantity, which is so fetch!
INFP - Mr. Heron
Cady’s dad has a heart of gold, and you do too. Some think you’re naive (no, you’re not allowed out when you’re grounded), but those who know you well know that you’re intelligent and deeply compassionate. You’re not the first person who gets noticed in a room, but you always leave a lasting impression on others.
ENFJ - Kevin G.
You may not have “badass” printed on your business card (but if you do, good for you). You’re confident but far from cocky, and always look on the bright side of a situation. When it comes to friendships, you’re fiercely loyal and never let haters get in the way of doing your thang.
INFJ - Cady Heron
When we first meet Cady at the start of the movie, she’s sweet yet naive about what high school will entail. You maintain the sweetness of pre-plastic Cady while remaining sure of yourself, for you know better than to let anyone walk all over you.
