In the scene she recreated, Allen’s 13-year-old Jenna, trapped in the 30-year-old body of Garner’s Jenna, gets all dolled up for a work party. For the reenactment, Allen took on the part of Garner, joyfully applying bright makeup, trying to figure out how adult underwear works, and putting on the iconic Versace striped dress, while jamming to Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance With Somebody.” The video, posted on Nov. 1, was captioned “happy Halloween!! wanna dance?” Allen wasn’t the only one to go as Jenna Rink for Halloween. She posted several photos and videos of fans dressed up as the character as well. “My TikTok mentions are flooded with your duets, with your interpretations on this character, your Jenna Rink Halloween costumes, and I just want to say that I see you, and it fills my heart with so much joy that we can share this movie and this character!!” Allen wrote on her Instagram Stories. “Well done everyone who created content it all looks amazing.” All the 13 Going on 30 costumes stirred up our nostalgia for a simpler time when “Razzles were all the rage.” Luckily, Allen has more TikToks filled with 13 Going on 30-inspired content. One of the movie’s most memorable scenes features Rink leading her co-workers through the “Thriller” choreography during a stuffy work event. Allen posted a TikTok of herself doing a duet with three men also doing the “Thriller” dance. And she also made TikToks recreating outfits from the movie and acting out other scenes.
