* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: More coincidence, really. [http://www.elle.com/Pop-Culture/Reese-Witherspoon-February-2012-ELLE-Magazine-Cover/February-2012-Reese-Witherspoon?cid=obinsite Reese Witherspoon is on the cover of Elle magazine.]

=== The Musical ===
* [[Better Than It Sounds/Theater|Better Than It Sounds: Theater]]: Under the candy-colored fluffapalooza is a surprisingly strong feminist message with genuine character development and believable romance. Of course, [[Your Mileage May Vary]].
* [[Ear Worm]]: Omigod, omigod, you guys!
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: The fake legal case discussed during "Chip On My Shoulder" was recently turned into a (satirical) bill in a state legislature.
* [[Hollywood Homely]]: The supposedly plain Vivienne was played on Broadway by ''Miss America 1998'' Kate Shindle.
* [[Ho Yay|Les Yay]]:
** Hinted at between Elle and Vivienne in the salon, but just barely. Also, Brooke and Elle are rather touchy-feely with each other...
** In the touring production, at the end of the dance break in Positive, Margot has her hand on one of Elle's boobs.
** Likewise in the London production, albeit it's Serena rather than Margot who's fondling Elle during the freeze. Clearly they're all at it.
* [[Straw Man Has a Point]]: When Callahan sings "Gay, or European?" in the musical in order to illustrate that Nikos being effeminate and flamboyant does NOT automatically equal that Nikos is gay. Callahan eventually became one of the bad guys for sexually harassing Elle...but he still was right in making the distinction between effeminacy and homosexuality.
