Pretty Woman-Princess Diaries

I was watching Pretty Woman and I noticed a part in one of the scenes was pretty similar to a scene in Princess Diaries. I'm not suggesting Princess Diaries copied it but I just thought it was interesting how similar they were.

There were actually a lot of similarities in pretty woman and the princess diaries. Like the hotel manager being joe. The receptionist girl being the secretary of the queen. The guy from the boutique sucking up to richard gere was mia's hairstylist. Even how he called the girls to offer Julia Roberts clothes was in the same way he called his hair assistants on mia. And I loved both films and I watched them a million times already so hahahaha

I thought the hotel manager's name was Barney?

[@megw2139]

Yeah, I actually just read something about this. Gary Marshall actually did that on purpose because he thought it would be funny to cast the same man as a waiter in the princess diaries with the exact same line as in Pretty Woman😂 love this

[@tami8458]

Yeah, because it happens all the time😊

You probably don’t care bc u said this literally 7 years ago but they have a lot of these references. In the shopping scene where the guy comes with her bc she said how they were mean to her the same actor who helped her out was in the makeover scene in princess diaries 2. So is the hotel manager as the security guard.

Both have a green pallet cleanser (ice cream stuff? ) served in the same way after the exact same line

[@realflyinghirsch]

spoken by the same actor casted by gary marshal yes

[@wirklichdoof]

Oh cool. I didn't know they both served the green stuff. It's been so long since I've seen pretty woman

[@sugarywords]

Just searched this because i noticed it watching pretty woman and wanted confirmation. Clearly was not disapointed 😂

[@wirklichdoof]

😂😂

[@nomadicvanrn959]

You should include the PD2 opening scene when the same guy catches her bracelet.... and what about all the other tidbits?

[@ureffingay]

both written by Gary Marshall!!! They even used the same characters :PPPP

[@averagejoereviews1293]

Same actors, similar story (girl gets cleaned up) and the same line from that film with the same guy sayin it... hmm...
