* AManIsNotAVirgin: Henry outright states this, this is why he has to lose his virginity before going to college.

* WallBangHer: teased in Lucy and Ben's sex scene. A little odd, seeing how it's her first time. Up against a glass wall.

* GoGetterGirl: subverted with Lucy. Her father raised her to be this, in order for her to become a doctor. We later find out she just wants to enjoy life and persue music.

* InterruptedIntimacy: Lucy and Ben in their almost kiss in the woods, interrupted hilariously by Mimi's screaming about something that bit her in the ass. HilatryEnsues.

* WrenchWench: Lucy has surprising shades of this. Part of her HiddenDepth.

* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: [[HairOfGold Lucy]], [[SassyBlackWoman Kit]] and [[FieryRedhead Mimi]].

* {{Fanservice}}: Britney in her underwear, but also all of her singing scenes have some fanservice-y outfits. It has been suggest that her [[BareYourMidriff midriff]] should get it's own credit in the film.

* [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Hoist By Her Own Petard]]: Kit's mom sent her to fat camp to become more attractive, but now resents that her daughter is more beautiful than she is.

* SlumberParty: The girls' night at the hotel turns into this, shown in a heart warming montage.

* TroubledButCute: Ben. Has the bad boy act down to the obligatory vintage convertible, tattoos, man jewelry, and PermaStubble.In fact, he is actually a very nice guy.

* WaxingLyrical: Seeing how this is Britney's movie, it's hardly surprising that her nusic is shoved in evey corner of the movie. There is a scene where Lucy reads to Ben one of her "poems", ''I'm not a girl''.

* {{Sex As Rite-of-passage}}: Lucy's lab partner treats it all as this and it's played as this for Lucy at the end of the movie.

** Mimi is Phlegmatic

** Ben is Sanguine

* AmericanAccents: Of the Dixie variation, ya'll.
