Ashley Tisdale auditioned for Karen Smith.
Lizzy Caplan's character was named Janis Ian as an homage to musician Janis Ian, the first Saturday Night Live musical guest (alongside Billy Preston). Ian's song "At Seventeen" which can be heard playing in the background when the girls are fighting at Regina's house. Other characters bullying Caplan's character persistently call her a lesbian throughout the movie; the real Janis Ian is an out lesbian.
This movie is based upon the book "Queen Bees and Wannabes: Helping Your Daughter Survive Cliques, Gossip, Boyfriends, and Other Realities of Adolescence" by Rosalind Wiseman, even though it is a non-fiction parental self-help guide with no narrative at all.
Movie Goof (factual errors): At the end of the movie Regina is shown playing lacrosse on a school team. The Illinois High School Association does not sponsor lacrosse.
