Anyone at the Mean Girls press screening tonight / going? VERY curious about the song list, but am impatient to wait to find out. Please share below if you saw / do know

I'm dying to know what made it in and what didn't.

I hope we get a better song than It Roars.

A new song written by Reneé opens the movie following Cautionary Tale. She has also spoke about revisiting World Burn in the film - which could be what we hear in the trailer (same lyrics as Meet The Plastics). EW confirms World Burn & Someone Gets Hurt by her.
There are up to 11 songs from the musical on the soundtrack, so:
I’d guess Stop (so Damian has a song) and Meet The Plastics or Apex Predator. Sad to see so many numbers cut

I'm sure there wouldn't have been as many cuts if they'd been a big screen release from the beginning rather than being made for Paramount+

"What Ifs" must be a completely new song. Based on the song list TaffyDavenport just posted, I think these are all the cut songs:
It Roars
Where Do You Belong?
Stupid With Love (Reprise)
Fearless
Whose House Is This?
More Is Better
Do This Thing
Stop

I'm a bit surprised they kept Cautionary Tale, especially since they cut It Roars (which feels like more of an opening number to me). More Is Better and Do This Thing being cut also surprise me a little, the latter more so, since they are more pivotal plot point songs, while I wonder if Sexy will be reworked to cut the direct address part, or if it'll have Karen addressing Cady or something in the beginning of the song.

This is a movie that needs to be streamlined and most of the songs would have stopped it in its tracks. These cuts are a good thing.

That movie already exists.

As does the stage version? Go see that. Like what are you trying to accomplish here with this stale gotcha.
A musical film is still a film, and can’t rely on the tropes of its staged counterpart. Just throwing it on film in its staged form would be disastrous. Some things don’t translate once those cameras start rolling.

Well this sucks. The only reason I had any interest in this movie was Jaquel Spivey as Damian, and they cut both of his songs.

A friend who loves the original film and loved the Broadway musical adaptation just attended an industry screening and hated this film adaptation. He feels it worked perfectly on stage as its own entity but putting it on film forces you to compare it to the original film whereas on stage you accepted it for what it was: a musical adaptation. He went with a few others who also felt the same.

He is credited in Apex Predator so maybe they made that a Janis/Damian duet.

I just got back from premiere (the spillover screen, we only saw the stars afterwards in the lobby) and here are some music specific spoilers:
