* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Jo was suffering from back problems during production of the movie. As a result, she's sitting down while singing "Never Had A Dream Come True", she's absent from the shower scenes, she scares the guard dogs instead of climbing over the hedge like the others and she's the one who walks across the road to Natalie's instead of running around town.
Added DiffLines:
** An alternate version of "Alive" was filmed with Rachel on lead vocals instead of Jo, as the latter was suffering from back problems. This was the one usually performed live, but the single and album versions just had Jo's vocals.

** At the film's premiere, Tina caused quite a stir among MoralGuardians with the ''very'' revealing dress she wore.
** Rachel likely tried to shake some of this off with her solo career. Her videos for "Sweet Dreams My LA Ex" and "Funky Dory" showed her in HotterAndSexier clothing - and she embarked on a slightly racier image. Her next single "Some Girls" was incredibly sexually suggestive too.
