A playboy bunny is kicked out of the Playboy mansion the day after she turns 27. Or so she thinks.

 

She ends up at a sorority where she becomes the house mother to these awkward girls, teaching them how to become popular, beautifying them and teaching them how to talk to boys.

 

She meets the man of her dreams too, and the girls teach her how to impress a man who's not only into a girl's looks trying to get into her pants,but one who's interested in who she is as a person.

 

This is a very sweet movie,it has its share of vulgar jokes with one of the tall girls who doesn't know how to talk to boys,but all in all,it's a movie about growing as a person,about appreciating the people in your life who helped you.

Shelley at first seems stup1d, but she is sweet and kind, and if you look beyond the surface, maybe she's not as stupid as she seems. Her character has growth, and I liked how she wanted to become better for the man she liked.

 

The movie has a good soundtrack and good acting. I honestly liked the whole cast.

Hugh Hefner and his girlfriends at the time, Kendra Wilkinson, Bridget Marquardt and Holly Madison, appear in the movie.

Shaquille O'Neal makes a cameo appearance at Shelley's birthday party.

 

The movie was produced by Adam Sandler and Anna Faris (who came up with the idea for the movie, although her version was much darker, being a drama), among other people. It received mixed reviews, but grossed 70.4 million dollars against a budget of 25 million,being a box office success.

CinemaScore audiences gave the movie a B+, on an A+ to F scale.

The movie was first named "I know what boys like".

Viewer discretion is advised, as the movie contains nudity.
