It's been almost two decades since an iconic Disney film hit theaters, and one of the stars is honoring the movie in a unique way.
In August 2004, fans got back in step with Anne Hathaway as she starred in the rom-com The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement. A sequel to the 2001 smash hit and based on the hit book series, the movie followed Princess Mia as she discovers she needs to marry in order to ascend the throne as queen of Genovia. The movie quickly became a cultural phenomenon, and it also featured Kelly Clarkson's single "Breakaway" (from the album of the same name) during the movie.
Well, as Anne marked the 20th anniversary of The Princess 2: Royal Engagement on Instagram, she didn't just post behind-the-scenes shots of her cast members (including Julie Andrews). She also posted a clip from Kelly's music video, which featured the singer attending a makeshift premiere for the movie.
"Happy 20th anniversary to #PrincessDiaries2 and @kellyclarkson’s Breakaway!" she affectionately captioned the post on August 7.
When fans saw the unique callout Kelly got from Anne, they immediately ran to the comments to share how much they appreciated this reminder.
"20 years later and we're still OBSESSED 😍👑," one person wrote. "But why do I STILL cry when Mia brings the orphans to walk in the parade and this song plays 😭😭💙," another replied. "I still sing this to the top of my lungs 😍," a different follower added.
It looks like Anne wasn't the only one getting nostalgic about The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement! Kelly later reposted Anne's video on her own Instagram, while also adding her own cheeky comment about the music video for "Breakaway."
Wearing sunglasses at night on a red carpet... I was that kind of cool 😂🤦♀️," she jokingly commented on August 8.
Well, should a third Princess Diaries movie come to fruition, Disney may just want to tap Kelly for another song on the soundtrack!
