The Plastics are the most popular girls in North Shore High School they are the main antagonists in both Mean Girls and Mean Girls 2. Their attitude can be quite dis-likeable; the main reason for their fame and power is the fact that they are all extremely beautiful, and the prettiest and most glamorous girls in the entire school.

Mean Girls
Their leader is Regina George , who is the meanest of the three, and also the one with the most domineering attitude. The other two members are Gretchen Wieners andKaren Smith.
Gretchen's father was made very rich after inventing the Toaster Strudel, and as a consequence of so much money, Gretchen became very spoiled. She is extremely beautiful, but she is quite insecure and she obeys Regina like she was her master.
And for last but not least, Karen Smith, she is a gorgeous young girl that is quite aloof. She is regarded as a bimbo, as her attitudes and sayings are quite dim-witted, to the point of being comedic. She also is said to be very promiscuous.
The three girls together are considered the most beautiful, glamorous and overall hottest girls in North Shore High School.
