• Emma Roberts was originally cast in the role of Brit, but due to scheduling conflicts, she turned down the project, and Ashley Benson replaced her.
• Selena Gomez absolutely refused to appear nude on camera, so a body double was used in some scenes.
• To simulate cocaine use, the girls had to sniff powdered vitamin B-12.
• James Franco's character was modeled after rapper Dangeruss. There were many rumors that another rapper named Riff Raff was the inspiration for the character. But Franco shed light on the situation in his 2012 interview with GQ.
• Vanessa Anne Hudgens wore a wig during filming.
• The scenes that take place at the school were filmed at New College of Florida in Sarasota, Florida.
