We wish this was caught on tape! Jamie Lee Curtis recalled a fun, nostalgic story about filming her 2003 movie Freaky Friday with Lindsay Lohan during the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s Grants Banquet on Thursday, August 4.

As the host of the evening, the Scream Queens star, 57, was introducing presenter Justin Timberlake when she decided to reminisce with attendees about singing one of the pop star’s songs with a young LiLo.

“I made a movie, Freaky Friday, with a young Lindsay Lohan. We were in a car, and I was pretending to be young. She was pretending to be old, I think it’s sort of still happening,” she joked. In the flick, the two actresses played a mother-daughter duo who switch bodies and have to live each other’s lives until they can figure out how to switch back.

“[Timberlake’s] song was on the radio, and the song was called ‘Like I Love You.’” Curtis said of the 2002 hit from Timberlake’s Justified album. “And in the middle of this fabulous song that Lindsay and I were listening to, there was a rap by this artist named Clipse in the middle of this song, and Lindsay Lohan and I sat in a car for five hours writing these lyrics and playing this song back trying to lip-synch–battle it.”

Curtis dubbed it one of her favorite memories of all time. “It was truly one of the most fun times I’ve ever had in my life, that three hours with Lindsay listening to the music of Justin Timberlake,” she said.

Although Lohan has had a rough few weeks, the one person she did “send love to” was her former costar. On July 24, the Parent Trap actress re-posted one of Curtis’ selfies with her young Scream Queens cast members. “Sending all my love – with you, they have wonderful futures ahead of them. Miss you. Beautiful people inside and out @jamieleecurtis,” Lohan captioned the pic.

As previously reported, the former child star, now 30, and her fiancé, Egor Tarabasov, had a blowout fight two weekends ago. Lohan claimed Tarabasov, 23, was cheating on her and insinuated she was pregnant. (Michael Lohan later claimed she had confirmed a pregnancy to him, but Lindsay’s friend Hofit Golan denied it.) Despite the very public drama, a source told Us Weekly that the two are still engaged, and they are working on their relationship.
