Richard Gere and Julia Roberts had obvious chemistry upon their first meeting; however, Gere was not planning on taking the role. He was on the phone ready to turn down the part when Roberts slid him a Post-it note with the words "please say yes" written on it. He accepted the role right then.
Richard Gere is actually playing the piano, and also composed the piece of music he plays.
In the bathtub scene where Vivian sings, a lot of detergent was used to make a lot of thick bubbles. The detergent was so strong that it rinsed the red dye out of Julia Roberts' hair. She had to have her hair re-dyed late that night.
In the dinner scene where Vivian flings the snail across the room, the waiter who catches it says, "It happens all the time." Director Garry Marshall threw the snail himself over many shots before the actor caught the snail convincingly. He then cast the same actor in The Princess Diaries (2001) years later and gave him the same line.
The opera Richard Gere takes Julia Roberts to is "La Traviata," about a prostitute who falls in love with a wealthy man.
"Vivian: People put you down enough, you start to believe it. Edward Lewis: I think you are a very bright, very special woman. Vivian: The bad stuff is easier to believe. You ever notice that?"
"Marie: May I help you? Vivian: No, thank you. [greeting the next saleswoman] Vivian: Hi. Snobby Saleswoman: Hello. Vivian: Do you remember me? Snobby Saleswoman: No, I'm sorry. Vivian: I was in here yesterday. You wouldn't wait on me. Snobby Saleswoman: Oh. Vivian: You work on commission, right? Snobby Saleswoman: Ah, yes. Vivian: Big mistake. Big. Huge. I have to go shopping now."
