- 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
If you want to see a cute, feel-good movie that doesn't require a lot of thought and will leave you with a smile on your face, this is the movie to see. You'll laugh out loud at much of the humor, and you'll fall in love with Anna Faris. It's just silly fun. Anna Farris plays a ditsy blond who gets kicked out of the Playboy Mansion (Hugh Hefner is a good sport in this movie!), ends up homeless, and ends up as a house mother for a sorority of "loser" girls (smart girls who don't know how to attract boys). The sorority is about to lose its charter because they can't get enough pledges, and of course Faris saves the day for the sorority by teaching the girls how to be popular, and, along the way, she learns a few lessons herself. You'll enjoy knowing that her love interest is played by Colin Hanks, son of Tom Hanks, and that some of the people in the Playboy mansion and at the party at the mansion are played by themselves. Also, Rumer Willis, daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore and Katherine McPhee from American Idol are girls in the sorority. I thoroughly enjoyed this light movie.
