When the sisters meet up with Whoopi Goldberg, they lip sync to "Can't Get Next to You" by the Temptations. Ruth Pointer was once married to Dennis Edwards, lead singer of the Temptations.
The sisters sing two songs with Bruce Willis, both of which were on his 1986 album, "The Return of Bruno." "Respect Yourself" was a top 5 hit for Willis and the Pointers. "Texas Woman Blues" was a cover of a 1972 song by Taj Mahal. Willis was a fan of the original recording, and when he decided to cover it, he reportedly said, "'Whoever is singing backup on that song, I want them to sing on my record." Mahal's backup vocalists were The Pointer Sisters.
The sisters later recounted that, as they drove through the streets of LA filming, they had a star sighting when Sylvester Stallone pulled up to their car at a stoplight.
