TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Melanie Lynskey was Jamie Babbit's first choice to play Hilary after the director had seen her in Heavenly Creatures (1994) and Ever After: A Cinderella Story (1998). Additionally, Lynskey had already worked with Natasha Lyonne (Megan) in Detroit Rock City (1999).

The song that Rock is dancing to is "Party Train" by RuPaul (Mike).

The day before shooting Natasha Lyonne (Megan) had gotten drunk and was tattooed on her back shoulder at a shop on Hollywood Boulevard. The director was very upset because Natasha had to film scenes in a sports bra doing cheer routines. The director said to her "How could you do this?" and Natasha responded, "I don't know what happened!"

Clea DuVall and Natasha Lyonne appeared as guest judges on RuPaul's show RuPaul's Drag Race (2009) in two consecutive weeks in season 11.

Despite mixed reviews and limited distribution, But I'm a Cheerleader has endured among the LGBTQI plus community due its fervent rejection of heteronormativity and its celebration of queerness at each stage of production - in the storyline, the aesthetic, the cast and the crew.

Popular Dialogues

"Megan: [to Graham] 1,2,3,4 - I won't take no anymore. 5,6,7,8 - I want you to be my mate. 1,2,3,4 - you're the one that I adore. 5,6,7,8 - don't run from me 'cause this is fate."

"Joel: What about foreplay? Mary: No! Foreplay is for sissies! Real men go in, unload and pull out!"
