‘My Old Ass’ Director Megan Park on Why ‘Everybody Loses Their Minds’ Over Film’s Surprise Pop Star ‘Cameo’


Director Megan Park and music coordinator Tyler Hilton talk inspiration for the "One Less Lonely Girl" tribute and reaction to the surprise scene.

The musical moment centers on a very faithful recreation of Bieber’s oft-memed “One Less Lonely Girl” performances from his My World 2.0 era, where the he got up close and personal with a lucky fan pulled onstage each night. The My Old Ass psychedelic sequence features an entire choreographed routine, with Stella masquerading as the pop star, complete with iconic purple and white outfit, and bouquet of flowers for a crying fan. The over-the-top montage (sadly sans Bieber cameo) has become one of the most talked-about scenes in the film, leaving audiences buzzing (and humming the tune) long after they’ve left the theater.
