<p class="has-medium-font-size">Freeform&#8217;s hit teen mystery, <em><strong>Cruel Summer</strong></em> is soaring! Even though both stars, <a href="https://wud.tpx.mybluehost.me/website_9bd75fcc/news/who-is-chiara-aurelia-from-cruel-summer/" title="Who is Chiara Aurelia from ‘Cruel Summer’ Portraying Jeanette Turner?">Chiara Aurelia </a>and <a href="https://wud.tpx.mybluehost.me/website_9bd75fcc/toplists/kate-wallis-5-fun-facts-about-olivia-from-cruel-summer/" title="Kate Wallis: 5 Fun Facts About Olivia from “Cruel Summer”">Olivia Holt</a> didn&#8217;t grow up in the 90&#8217;s, they are doing a pretty great job portraying teens of the 90&#8217;s. It wasn&#8217;t always smooth sailing though, as <a href="https://wud.tpx.mybluehost.me/website_9bd75fcc/news/olivia-holts-funny-moment-transforming-into-90s-character-for-cruel-summer/" title="Olivia Holt’s Funny Moment Transforming Into 90’s Character for ‘Cruel Summer’">Chiara shared a funny moment behind the scenes when Olivia Holt didn&#8217;t recognize one iconic 90&#8217;s gadget</a>! The show displays a lot of 90&#8217;s inspired themes, including the outfits.</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">In order to prepare for the role, Chiara said they were given a list of iconic movies from that time for their research. In one of the first episodes, viewers see Kate Wallis and Jeanette Turner joining their mothers in a group exercise class.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">This or That 90&#8217;s Style with Olivia and Chiara</h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Both Olivia and Chiara sat down for a fun round of This or That 90&#8217;s Edition with TV Guide. When asked about their exercise leotards, Olivia had strong feelings! &#8220;Aerobics or pumping iron?&#8221; TV Guide asked. &#8220;Aerobics!&#8221; they responded. &#8220;Because of the leotards?&#8221;</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">&#8220;No, no!&#8221; Olivia Holt exclaimed. &#8220;Those leotards suck. I&#8217;m so sorry for anybody who had to wear them. They are not fun to wear,&#8221; she added. However, her co-star Chiara had a different sentiment towards the iconic 90&#8217;s gear.</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">&#8220;I enjoyed the leotards, they were great.&#8221; Chiara said. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Remember the scene in the rollerskating rink when they flashed to the year of 1994 when Kate Wallis went missing? We see Jeanette with Kate&#8217;s BFF&#8217;s and Kate&#8217;s BF all hanging out. Chiara lowkey loved this. TV Guide asked, &#8220;Would you rather hang out at the roller rink or the mall?&#8221;</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Both girls simultaneously said, &#8220;roller rink.&#8221; &#8220;The roller rink is fun as long as you&#8217;re not falling on your face!&#8221; &#8220;Plus you&#8217;re not spending a bunch of money on stuff you already have,&#8221; Olivia Holt chimed in referring to hanging out at the mall. &#8220;I&#8217;m frugal,&#8221; she giggled. <a href="https://wud.tpx.mybluehost.me/website_9bd75fcc/toplists/kate-wallis-5-fun-facts-about-olivia-from-cruel-summer/" title="Kate Wallis: 5 Fun Facts About Olivia from “Cruel Summer”">She said she once splurged on a Celine purse in a unbagging video haul.</a></p>
