20 Things You Somehow Missed In Scream 3

14. The Meta Gag About Jenny McCarthy's Casting

While talking to Roman early in the film, Sarah gets to rattle off two more meta gags which refer to Jenny McCarthy's own involvement in the film.

First off, Sarah complains to Roman that she's "only in two scenes" of Stab 3, and lo and behold, McCarthy herself only appears in two scenes in Scream 3 before being killed off.

Also, she tells Roman,"I'm not happy that I am 35 playing a 21-year-old," but this is actually an amusing reversal of the truth. In reality, McCarthy was just 27 years of age when she played the 35-year-old Sarah.

Sarah also complains to Roman about having to die naked in Stab 3, but rest assured, McCarthy keeps her clothes on when Ghostface guts her a few minutes later.
