Tons of high school seniors take to social media every year to show off their senior portraits, but the Internet is feeling *personally victimized* by one girl’s photo in particular – and Twitter is absolutely losing its mind over how much she looks like Regina George from Mean Girls.
On Friday, Twitter user and high school senior @april_ONELOVE posted her senior portraits to Twitter to get her followers’ opinions on which to choose – but things went in a slightly different direction when the Internet realized exactly how scarily similar she looks to the Queen of the Plastics.

I mean, the long, super straight blonde hair, the Wednesday-worthy pink outfit – TBH I’m honestly kind of shook along with the rest of Twitter:

On the other hand, April, a.k.a. Regina George’s now-official doppleganger, is super surprised about all the comparisons.
“This was a first, but once one person saw it, everyone noticed it,” she told E! News. “It’s strange because I have naturally curly hair, but I decided to straighten it for the pictures, which caused me to look even more like her I guess.”
Meanwhile, the Internet has already started cooking up some conspiracy theories about how one real-life person could possibly look so much like Regina.

The obvious takeaway here? Regina George is officially a real person and everything I believed previously about Mean Girls being just a really funny, totally fictional move was a lie.
