The director of the film, P.J. Hogan explained that the focus group didn’t want Julianne to have a happy ending. “They still hadn’t forgiven her,” he said.

We’ve all had moments when there were knots in our bellies, especially if we were to take center stage. Well, we’re all humans at the end of the day, and this includes Cameron Diaz, who had the nerves as well.
Cameron Diaz said that she was terrified to do the scene, and she allowed the true terror of singing in front of people to be alive in her.
"I wanted to run and hide, and Dermot kept me there. He said, 'You can do it, you can do it.' In the scene I'm just staring at him the whole time because he's looking at me like, 'You're okay. You're not gonna die.' And I was like, 'But I'm dying.'"
Fellow Celebrities Love It Too!

This comes as no surprise that other celebrities enjoy the work of their peers as well. According to Cameron Diaz, her sister-in-law, Nicole Richie is obsessed with the film. "We went to Chicago, like, a year and a half ago, and she took me to every single [location]. She's like, 'Remember when you were walking down the street right here and then…' It was so much fun," she said to Entertainment Weekly.
We enjoyed the movie the first time we watched it, and we’re sure we’ll still love it… 22 years later!
