When Alicia Silverstone raided Cher Horowitz’s closet for her appearance on _Lip Sync Battle_, she probably had no idea that she would—to borrow a phrase from _Clueless—_have Chrissy Teigen “totally buggin’.”

Turns out that [Teigen](http://time.com/4947946/chrissy-teigen-trolls-john-legend/) is a huge fan of _Clueless_  and even though she is a celebrity who attends [the Oscars](http://time.com/4684411/oscars-2017-chrissy-teigen-sleeping-john-legend/) and the Grammys and is frequently surrounded by mega-stars, including her husband [John Legend](http://motto.time.com/4685341/chrissy-teigen-teases-john-legend-oscars-2017/), she couldn’t help but ask Silverstone to take a photo with her. Luckily Silverstone didn’t brush off the request (as if!) with a sassy, “This is California, not Kentucky” and agreed to take a photo with the _Lip Sync Battle_ co-host.

[Teigen](http://time.com/4872442/chrissy-teigen-donald-trump-blocked-twitter/) posted a photo on Twitter over the weekend of Silverstone, dressed in her character’s iconic yellow plaid outfit, alongside Teigen and her daughter, Luna. “How am I supposed to sleep? I think I’ve asked for 2 photos in my entire life. @AliciaSilv and Beyoncé,” Teigen wrote in the photo’s caption, proving her excellent taste in fandom.

## Transcript

[ BLANK_AUDIO ] So, okay, like right now for example, the Haitians need to come to America. But some people are all, what about the strain on our resources. And it's like, when I had this garden party for my father's birthday right, People came that like did not RSVP. So I was like totally bugging. I had to haul **** to the kitchen, squish in extra place settings, and like people were on mismatched chairs and all. But by the end of the day it was like the more the merrier. And so if the government could just get to the kitchen, rearrange somethings, we could certainly party with the Hadeans. Wow.

You guys talk like grown ups. Well this is a really good school. [ MUSIC ] [ SOUND ] Mr. Hall was way harsh. He gave me a C -. Well he gave me a C, which drags my entire average. [ SOUND ] Hello, there was a stop sign. [ MUSIC ] I totally paused. You try driving in platforms. [ SOUND ] Should I write them a note? [ MUSIC ] Ew, get off of me. Ugh, as if. Cher's got attitude about high school boys. It's a personal choice, every woman has got to make for themselves. Cher's saving herself for Luke Perry. Cher, you're a virgin? I mean, I'm not a prude. I'm just highly selective. Well, you see how picky I am about my shoes, and they only go on my feet.

[ SOUND ] Nice stems. Thanks. [ MUSIC ] What the hell is that? It; s a dress. Say's who? Calvin Klein. [ MUSIC ] What are you doing? Yo, you're getting on the freeway! [ SOUND ] [ MUSIC ] You go girl. [ MUSIC ] [ SOUND ] Are you okay? I'm fine. [ MUSIC ] Classic! Whatever! Did I miss something, is big hair back? Amber? My plastic surgeon doesn't want me doing any activity where Balls flying at my nose. Well there goes your social life. [ MUSIC ] I'm going to be a super model. [ BLANK_AUDIO ]
