- TriviaAnna Faris chose to appear nude in one scene instead of using a body double. The reactions from the other actresses are genuine when she walks out nude. "It was my first nude scene and it wasn't supposed to be me," she explained in an interview. "I had a body double and we had some complicating factors with her. It was sort of a last-minute thing, where I said, 'I'll just go ahead and do this.'" She also said she felt like it's what her character Shelley would do, so she should do it too. She even turned her head during the shot so people would see it was her and not a double. Faris said that she broke her "no nudity" clause to do it but, she thought the whole thing was uncomfortable. "This crew that I'd been working with, that knows me when I put on my producer hat, suddenly sees me naked. It was really humiliating. I definitely think I lost some street cred as a producer with the whole crew, being naked in front of them. You have to wear little pasties. You can't wear a full bra and it's not even like covering up. It was a little embarrassing but I'm used to that now. Keenan (Wayans) told me early on that, "There's no vanity in comedy. You can't be vain and funny at the same time". So I've really tried to embrace that idea, that you just have to be fearless."
- Goofs(at around 3 mins) When Shelly is getting her hair done before her party it is clear that the person actually doing her hair is using some form of straighteners/curlers but isn't touching her hair.

Featured review
Anna Faris makes this paper thin attempt at comedy overwhelmingly worthwhile. She is an original that reminded me of some other glories, from Carole Lombard to Goldie Hawn. Her innocence is so believable that we go with her wherever she decides to go. I wish the producers and responsible for this movie getting made had gone all the way and provided this extraordinary comic talent with a more substantial script and direction giving her the opportunity to shine even more than she shines here and here shine she does, big time. Just look at her listening, trying to make sense of what's happening around her. Deeply moving, very funny, kind of unique. I hope she soon finds her Garson Kanin and her George Cukor. I have the feeling we ain't seen nothing yet
