Get ready to squeal like Cher Horowitz, because the director of Clueless has just confirmed that the cult teen film is being made into a Broadway musical. THIS IS, LIKE, SO NOT A DRILL.
In an interview with* ET*, director Amy Heckerling said: “I’ve written the, what they call the book and it’s a jukebox musical.” It's being directed by Kristin Hanggi who directed the Rock of Ages musical.
We can imagine it now - breaking out into dance routines sporadically, Alaia costumes, 'whatever' dances and gummy bears sold at the interval.
The original cast are unlikely to come back in their roles (it has been 20 years), but we're hoping Paul Rudd makes a cameo. So who could play Cher? Our money is on Elle Fanning, Chloe Moretz or Iggy Azalea. Oh and we'd like Anna Kendrick as Amber please.
Now we hope that Jill Sobule's 'Supermodel,' 'Kids in America' and Coolio's 'Rollin' with the Homies' make it into the set list, but hopefully there will be some Clueless originals too. Here are the songs we would like to hear...
1. You're a virgin that can't drive
2. As if!
3. Ensembly challenged
4. A total betty
5. What-ever
6. A full-on Monet

If your plaid co-ord doesn't match your BFF's it just isn't worth wearing. Fact.

"you're a virgin and you can't drive". Meh, neither can we.

Sport is strictly for fashion-experimentation purposes only. It's okay to buy gym clothes with no real intention of going to the gym, and it's okay to kid yourself that you will go to the gym if it justifies you spending £50+ on a pair of fancy leggings.

"Anything you can do to draw attention to your mouth is good." Now, where is my Nars Audacious...?

Mel: What the hell is that? Cher: A dress. Mel: Says who? Cher: Calvin Klein. We think today Cher would totally be strutting her stuff in Marc Jacobs.

Sheer chiffon blouse? Always a winner, take note.

Cher knew you're going nowhere without some great gal side-kicks.
