COURTNEY SHAYNE: When your best friend is secretly the ENEMY and plotting against you

[@amyadams9970]

Someone asked me once, if I had to stay in a room with Regina George from Mean Girls or Courtney Shayne from Jawbreaker for a million dollars, who would it be? I said, Regina! Courtney scares me, she killed her friend and didn't flinch. At least Regina wouldn't be THAT crazy

[@dramaqueen465]

Yeah Regina is the obvious answer. She’s never murdered someone she’s just a classic mean girl. Your reputation might not survive but you will

[@beforethenextstep305]

What about Katheryn meetruil from cruel intentions?

[@FishareFriendsNotFood972]

The wardrobe in this movie was definitely phenomenal because it was such a cohesive vision

[@OROZWBRAZEL]

Even the blue “window sweater” and red skirt/hose combo was a moment in of itself

[@lovefromwonderland]

Courtney I've always found interesting as a character because she's an actual remorseless psycho. Not just an average mean girl. She needed to be humbled fast or she most certainly would've become a serial killer in the future.

[@leiiib]

Rose was definitely a baddie! I loved her in Charmed (which I hope you do a breakdown on 😊😊) Courtney was a villain who you love to hate and she’s someone who you would never want to be friends with lol

[@iconicallyiconic]

Listen Charmed was my show!! lol I might have to binge watch and do a character and fashion breakdown 🩷✨

[@angelaholmes8888]

​@@iconicallyiconicoh please do videos on charmed

[@Breangel]

@@iconicallyiconic my fashion favorites were phoebe and Paige. They were the most daring in their fashion

[@breathless_siren]

​@@iconicallyiconic Paige was definitely the best dressed and the one I resonated most with. I binged Charmed a couple years ago for a second viewing from season 4 and couldn't stop after starting it.

[@PumpkinPieDoll]

Oooh grew UP on charmed I love it so much

[@rhonnichan]

Jawbreaker is such a cult classic The way Rose acted DOWN as Courtney Shayne

[@_Alimm]

During that era in the 90's dark grunge was extremely popular with the youth so movies like Jawbreaker and Clueless purposefully styled characters in over the top, bold and colorful outfits to contradict the times.

[@beautelle1065]

Yeah she's spoken about that before and how Mona May contributed to hyperfeminine fashion, but most 90s babies (like her) who love fashion know this already lol

[@Nishamama]

Lmfao not Courtney looking like a child who would bite the cat back 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@iconicallyiconic]

Lmao listen I just know she did 😂

[@mauntraedouglas2260]

😂

[@mindyourmanners3784]

When I tell you I was in tears lmaooooo that's a different level of evil 😂😂😂😂

[@taniamejia5359]

Courtney definitely planned to kill Liz. Liz was loved and Courtney was feared. The way she destroyed Violet/Fern once she was becoming more popular than her and was condescending to Marcie. Love everyone’s outfits in the films.

[@kidanygascot1410]

Of course Courtney wanted to kill Liz and the pranks that they played on Liz for her Birthday were the perfect excuse for her to execute the plan of getting rid of Liz. And let's not mention how even after Liz's death, Courtney was still willing to destroy her reputation at all costs by saying that she was raped. Courtney was EVIL, she was literally Satan in heels, which is kind of fitting not only for her character on this movie but also the line "Satan in heels" somehow is a nod to Rose McGowan's other character on the movie Devil On The Flesh.

[@beautelle1065]

Tailoring really does make a difference with clothing, I've had so many outfits that did not fit correctly or sat in my closet tailored and they've become staple pieces. I love how the bright bubbly fashion is a contrast to the plot 💞They just don't make good films like this anymore, everything is just a reboot now

[@2cut32handle]

All the outfits in this movie were so iconic 😍

[@faboul467]

I love how this movie is a dark comedy but the fashion and lighting of the movie is bright / vibrant. I wonder if that was done on purpose. For example, you know she’s evil but her outfits and style takes your attention away from her bad persona for a bit. Such as in real life when a serial killer is attractive or have a “great” personality, they get fans and support

[@iconicallyiconic]

This is absolutely correct! Make a villain beautiful/handsome AND well dressed like Blair Waldorf, Regina etc. and they have gain a massive fan base. Don’t even get me started on the women who supported and formed obsessions with Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer and Richard Ramirez.

[@faboul467]

@@iconicallyiconic yes! Very disgusting especially when they marry the killers while in prison

[@CurlMvrck]

Jawbreakers and Heathers are my top two mean girl movies

[@isalisa909]

Before Regina we had Courtney

[@barbiesinspiration8799]

Such an underrated film. Rose was such certified baddie, she looked great in everything she wore. Courtney was definitely a person you had to stay 10 steps ahead of and watch out for because she had no loyalty or empathy for anyone

[@OROZWBRAZEL]

*Heathers:* the mother, _mean girls:_ the sweet(er) younger sister jawbreaker: the sardonic older sibling

[@strawberryswirrl716]

This is gonna sound weird but I love how rose's mouth moves when she talks.

[@angelaholmes8888]

Yes this movie is so underrated rose McGowan is fantastic as courtney 🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@riritheedon8967]

I love the movie Jawbreaker the fashion was everything 🥰🥰🥰

[@jayreed93]

She also a baddie in the devil in the flesh she's played a troubled teenager who's live with a religious fanatic abusive grandmother also fall madly in love with a handsome teacher I recommend

[@faboul467]

I love her in that movie! I actually think it is as a prequel or sequel to jawbreaker, like if she got away and was able to start over

[@MichellaneousMe]

I love love LOVE jawbreaker! Where Heathers was my oldest sister's coming-of-age story, and Mean Girls was my youngest sister's favorite movie, Jawbreaker was a story I held deep into my heart. the characters, music, and the FASHION! It was top-notch. I feel like this movie is so underrated, at least when I try to talk about it with my peers lol

[@ElisNUnderland]

This is by far one of my favorite dark comedy movies of all time. It's definitely just as quotable as Mean Girls

[@sheluvssmokedupeyes1]

Courtney was Satan in heels and Marcy was her henchmen

[@Princessdollamanda]

I love your character breakdowns so much! It’s so true about having friends secretly not like you and to have that type of envy that young is terrible, because it only gets worse as they get older

[@mutantx2372]

Can you do a fashion breakdown on both Twitches movies with Tia & Tamera Mowry ?

[@iconicallyiconic]

That is one of my favorite movies, I watch it every fall lol 🩷 * adds to list * 📝

[@mutantx2372]

@iconicallyiconic thanks you know they're based on books. There's 10 of them. I honestly think it would make for a good tv show adaptation but idk how people (who've just seen the movies and haven't read the books) would about not having Tia & Tamera in the lead roles. The same could said about the Cheetah Girls books.

[@AvecPoesie]

I adored this film growing up! Her character having a signature color was so inspiring to me! I am now a purple devotee, myself. Only, instead of Courtney's Violet, I am a Lilac lover. Lilac is my Soulmate in color-form. I will always remember my dear, late Mother laughing at the scene with all of the girls trying to physically carry that one girl! Jawbreaker is a classic 🖤

[@realSimoneCherie]

Rose McGowan is just top tier 90s girl for me. Devil in the Flesh 2?!! COME ON

[@Chantholli89]

Love this movie as a kid! The costumes were amazing!

[@Itzmakioduhh]

This is my fave MOVIE!!! Top one of all faves

[@iconicallyiconic]

Girl same! it’s such a classic ✨

[@Brown.nbeautiful]

You should do seventeen again with tia and Tamara and why not do the bring it on series there were alot of good Character break down that you could do with the girls especially the bring it on in it to win it and fight to the finish

[@diamondsfursexpensivethings]

Her having the signature color purple make so much sense as to why she gave Fern the name Vylette especially when you said she views that color as power and mystery, Fern was a mystery to people because she popped and no one knows she Fern. Courtney should've channeled her energy into something that actually benefitted her but she was so e vil she couldn't help but view other women as competition that she needed to take down

[@angelaholmes8888]

Could you do a video on daria from the 90,s animated tv series 🤔

[@yoncedelrey]

my movie! always a fun and fashionable watch

[@crystalcreatedthat3451]

Jawbreaker is iconic!!! Thank you for doing this breakdown.

[@user-px1md1ef6l]

She did not feel bad whatsoever.

[@mindyourmanners3784]

Biting the cat back is so crazy lmaooo the laugh I let out 😂 I really think Courtney was well on her way to taking out Julie because she didn't like that she rebelled against her. I absolutely loveddddd the wardrobe it's sooo good and ultra girly

[@user-px1md1ef6l]

Yeah I mean She wasn't called Satan in Heels for nothing.

[@breathless_siren]

I love this movie too. I live for the fact this is a deep dive on Courtney. Subbed. This channel is a wonderful gathering of intelligent and stylish people.

[@milaakajau861]

Courtney is the girl who plays like she likes someone she's jealous of just to plot on them because she has no control over her jealousy and can't handle having any competition. Rose was most certainly a baddie though

[@StyleOutlawTV]

The way I live for this movie. The fashions were iconic, Julie was definitely my fashion inspiration. But Courtney Shane was that girl.

[@EmilyRafferty]

ohhh lets bring back capris! you know i really miss...? palazzo pants/gouchos? like the baggy version of capris... those were so cute and flattering on everyone imo

[@iconicallyiconic]

Omg! funny enough I recently watched an episode of That’s So Raven and Chelsea had on a pair of floral palazzo pants and I thought they were so cute! and they are so lightweight and can be worn multiple ways, dressed up or down.

[@EmilyRafferty]

@iconicallyiconic haha no way! Let's bring em back!? Lol ya those the fire in the early 2000s! Great video BTW I like how you describe Courtney and crew lol this was one of my all time fav movies lol

[@faboul467]

Another interesting viewpoints of this movie You never see Courtney’s parents ( so who knows if they were always around ) You’ll meet Marcia’s dad once and he told her “I saw an episode of Oprah about kids being followers” and he is scared to think that is her. Therefore Marcia’s dad probably knows or see through Courtney . But Marcia didn’t listen to her dad . Proud of Julie for getting the hell out of that friendship ! If you see her room compared to Courtney and her friend that was killed. It’s smaller. She probably didn’t grow up with money compared to her friends. Like Fran, which explain why they grew up together. But because she is attractive, she got into the crowd.

[@iconicallyiconic]

This was something I meant to put in the video, you see all of the girls parents except for Courtney and how Marcia’s dad speaks about how sweet she was before becoming friends with Courtney and becoming a follower. I’m glad Julie listened to her intuition and got away from Courtney because if they got away with that, who knows what other crimes she would’ve committed and used blackmail against Julie and Marcie to help cover it up.

[@faboul467]

@@iconicallyiconic 100 agree! I also have a theory why Marcy follows Courtney. Low self esteem of course but since Marcy has a single father. He comes off as less “masculine “ and Marcy mother is not found. First time, I thought maybe he was gay. Whereas Courtney she has masculine and feminine energy which Marcy craves. Courtney is a parent figure or maybe big sister . Country teachers marcy how to dress, act, get guys attention things a mother / sister can teach their daughter / sister. And Courtney disciplines marcy when needed. Things a father would do. And since marcy isn’t getting that at home, she finds it it Courtney.

[@iconicallyiconic]

@@faboul467 This is such a good analysis! when a girl doesn’t have a relationship with her mother she looks for it in other women. A lot of times the friendship is toxic because there is so much codependency and wanting to be loved by that feminine figure. It explains why she couldn’t break away from Courtney whereas Julie could.

[@faboul467]

@@iconicallyiconic thank you! Yes and all the true crime stories, when there a group of pre-teens / teens, there is also one leader and the rest follows. Most likely due to their home life . I’m training to be a therapist so it’s fun to watch my fave movies and look at it from a clinical perspective

[@Faeriesephone]

Courtney Shane would make Regina George scared, she was the devil in heels.

[@OpticalSorcerer]

Two things: 1. I always felt like the ending proved everyone was terrible, seeing how Julie and Marcy helped Courtney cover up Liz's death but pinned everything on her with no implication that they shared the blame. 2. I think "Jawbreakers" is underrated because it doesn't have a message to say like "Heathers" and "Mean Girls" as well as the fact that it has a weird tone, jumping between zany (in sound effects and dialogue) and dark.

[@sarahgirlisit]

I’m surprised you haven’t done clueless yet. The movie and tv show.
