1. Even though Bumper and Fat Amy are everyone's OTP, the couple wasn't supposed to happen. Rebel Wilson and Adam Devine would improvise and Adam kept trying to kiss her during the scenes. The director loved it so much he wanted them to keep it up!
2. "Cups" wasn't even supposed to be in the movie! Beca was supposed to audition with "I'm a Little Tea Cup" but then Anna showed them that she could sing and play cups and they IMMEDIATELY wanted her to do it in the movie.
I bet you have "Cups" stuck in your head right now!
3. The riff-off was one of the best scenes! Did you notice the other categories? The riff-off wheel had other categories like Songs Gleeruined and Ugly Lead Singers!
4. Esther Dean played Cynthia Rose and she starts to sing "S&M" during the riff-off. Esther actually co-wrote that song for Rihanna!
5. You better aca-believe it! A Bella Barden and a Treblemaker got together IRL! Skylar Astin and Anna Camp are engaged! They met on set and fell in love.
6. Remember the naked shower scene between Beca and Chloe where they sing "Titanium"? It was actually supposed to be a scene between Fat Amy and Beca!
Okay that would have been HILARIOUS. I remember just dying whenever Rebel was on screen. Fat Amy is THE best character from the movies!
7. Remember when Bumper hits Fat Amy with a burrito? It took Adam so many takes because he kept missing and one time, he accidentally hit the cameraman in the face instead!
8. When the Bellas are singing "Party in the USA," Chloe actually hums "Dancing Queen" before she starts singing "Party in the USA"!
I've never noticed that before. I have to rewatch this movie!
9. Whenever Anna is singing alone in the movie, she was singing live on set. Anna wanted to do it and the producers knew she had the singing ability to do it!
Ugh. I would literally do anything to have her voice!
10. In the second movie, Anna improvised almost all her lines. She said she was inspired by Rebel from the first movie and wanted to challenge herself!
TBH there's no way Anna can come close to being as funny as Rebel. She's the queen of comedy!
11. The Green Bay Packers were the best part of the riff-off scene in Pitch Perfect 2! They were amazing, right? They actually did all their own singing and didn't learn the choreography until the night before filming.
Okay so they're amazing athletes AND good at singing and dancing? That's unfair! People can't just be too talented! Save some for the rest of us peasants!
12. During the end credits of the second movie, there's a scene where Bumper auditions for The Voice. Adam actually auditioned for the coaches during the Blind Auditions!
13. The entire cast had to go to a special singing and dancing boot camp for a month before filming. The producers wanted the actors to be able to do every single musical number perfectly.
And they pulled it off! Who else knows the choreography to the final number in the first movie?! *raises hand high with no shame*
14. Hailee Steinfeld got a record deal with Republic Records after producers saw her singing in Pitch Perfect 2. And now she has hit songs like "Love Myself" and "Rock Bottom"!
Every song on her EP is so catchy! I can't wait to hear her full album.
15. Fat Amy is actually a nickname based on Amy Poehler. It was something she called herself when she was pregnant!
Fat Amy had the best lines. "I sometimes think I can do crystal meth, but then I think, hmmm, better not."
COMMENT and tell us your favorite musical number from the two movies!
I think I'll always have a soft spot for "Cups"!
