Keri Russell Spills on Mickey Mouse Club Reunions and Boozy Gossip Sessions

In October 2025, Keri Russell, a former cast member of the All-New Mickey Mouse Club, opened up about her enduring friendships with some of her fellow alums. During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Russell shared that she still regularly meets up with two of her closest friends from the '90s Disney variety show: Ilana Miller and Lindsey Alley.

According to Russell, their reunions involve "girls swanky dinners and numerous amounts of alcohol" where they catch up on the gossip and drama from their 20s in New York City. "Someone always cries, and someone always tells a hilarious [story]," she said, recounting tales of hookups and "what bl-- job story went wrong."

Despite being part of the Mickey Mouse Club's star-studded lineup, which included the likes of Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling, and Britney Spears, Russell has previously expressed feeling like the "least talented" member of the cast. "When I look at those kids, I'm like, Why in the world did they pick me?" she said in 2023.

As for mementos from her time on the show, Russell joked that the only things she saved were "my sanity, my dignity. Not everyone got out alive."
