Looks like we have a new member of the Pink Ladies!

Madonna's talented daughter Lourdes Leon took to the stage this weekend in her high school's musical production of Grease.

The 17-year-old student showed off her acting skills as she portrayed the tough and sassy Betty Rizzo.

According to the New York Daily Newstheater critic, Lourdes nailed the memorable character at LaGuardia High School.

"[Lourdes] had comic chops and confidence on stage," the critic said. "She delivered Rizzo's zingers with hands on her hips and a lot of attitude." 

The high school student also demonstrated her singing abilities when she performed classic tunes from the 1972 musical including "Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee" and "There Are Worse Things I Could Do."

Despite a busy schedule, Madonna couldn't miss seeing her daughter shine on the big stage.

The pop superstar was in attendance and cheered the cast on throughout the show.

By no surprise, Lourdes isn't the first famous face to portray Rizzo.

Brooke Shields, Debbie Gibson, Mackenzie Phillips and Rosie O'Donnell have also played the character in various productions.
