The studio was unhappy with the original ending of the film, prompting the makers of the film to seek Molly Ringwald's help.
The filmmakers couldn't get the rights to use footage from She's All That (1999) so they shot the scene with two different people (on the library set) and made the TV blurry so you couldn't tell.
Visual pun: When Areola is singing, topless of course, during "Prom Tonight," the animated birds that appear outside her window are blue tits.
In Spain and Greece, the movie was released under the title "This is Not Another Dumb American Movie".
