Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia have turned into a couple of Mean Girls

In the trailer for the 16th season of The Bachelorette, in which Gabby and Rachel will both act as Bachelorettes in a franchise first, the two friends channel Rachel McAdams as Regina George from the classic 2004 movie.

"Get in loser, we're going shopping," Rachel says, mimicking Regina's iconic "Get in loser, we're going shopping" line.

"For a husband," Gabby jokingly responds. 

In the trailer, which features Lizzo's "Water Me," Gabby and Rachel are seen wearing matching rose-patterned dresses while loading luggage into a car with a license plate that reads "BFFs."

As Gabby and Rachel toss flowers in the air, the tagline "Two best friends. One unbelievable journey. This season it's petal to the metal." splashes across the screen.

We love a good flower pun.

The trailer was posted on Instagram, where new Bachelorette host Jesse Palmer commented: "I'm coming along (I'm hiding in the trunk…)"

When it was announced that Gabby and Rachel would be taking on Bachelorette duties together during The Bachelor finale on March 15, both women heaped praise on one another.

"I'm so happy for her," Rachel said about Gabby. "This is insane and I'm excited to do this journey with you. We did it once together and we've been through the most crazy experience together."

Gabby, who formed a real bond with Rachel throughout the chaos of Clayton Echard's season, felt similarly. 

"I'm a girl's girl, through and through," she said. "Having a friend by my side is the best thing I could ask for!"

Watch it all go down when the 16th season of The Bachelorette premieres July 11 on ABC.
