When I first saw the promo’s for Cameron Diaz’s movie The Other Woman I thought it was a genius idea for a movie. Revenge on a cheating husband sought by the mistress and the wife – great idea! While I probably wouldn’t have the courage to get back at a guy in the crazy ways these ladies do, I certainly have been tempted!
From 20th Century Fox:
Cameron Diaz leads a knockout cast in this irreverent comedy about love, lust and the laws of karma. New York attorney Carly Whitten (Diaz) is nobody’s fool. So when she accidentally discovers that her too-good-to-be-true boyfriend Mark (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) is married, she’s less than thrilled. Not only that, she and Mark’s wife Kate (Leslie Mann), learn about yet another mistress (Kate Upton)! Before long, however, the betrayed beauties have become unlikely pals who’ve decided to teach their three-timing man a lesson. The more the trio learns about Mark, the worse he seems, and the more fun they have without him!With eight deleted scenes, THE OTHER WOMAN Blu-ray™ kicks up the comedy even more! Extras on the Blu-ray and DVD, including a gag reel and “Giggle Fit,” will have you and your girlfriends cracking up for the rest of the summer.Blu-ray™ and DVD Special Features

My Review of The Other Woman:
While I was a bit skeptical at first because of some recent experiences in my own life I was pleasantly surprised by the number of times I laughed in the movie and could not stop laughing at the scene in the restaurant involving the laxative. Genius! That is probably exactly how I would deal with the same situation. And well, bathroom humour as revenge is always funny! Overall it was a fun movie that celebrated friendship (even unlikely friendship) and the power of women when they come together. If you are looking for a fun girls movie, this one is definitely a great choice!

Eight times Cameron Diaz has been a boss…
1. When she and the other angels kicked butt and saved Bosley after he had been kidnapped.
2. When she refused to put up with BS. Even from her students.
3. When she didn’t remember that she got married in Vegas, and then she hit the jackpot.
4. When she was a princess by day and ogre by night.
5. When three guys loved her, even though this happened…
6. When she was never too old to play dress up.
7. When she was an amazing mom.
8. When she still doesn’t put up with BS.
dressed up Vegas style and lip synced
Invited a cute guy from the elevator on our girls’ night out (he said no)
karaoke sober
We went to Vegas!
Traybogganed.
We will usually sing and dance to the music playing in the stores lol no shame. :)
In high school we called guys and pretended to be someone else.
The funniest thing we have done is do imitations of each other.
Little juvenile but when we were younger we’d troll people on POF. We thought it was funny then! lol
The funniest thing I’ve done with friends is hooting and hollering like a whale at a Vancouver Canucks game.
Going to the bar and having a good time.
Going out to the bar and just acting goofy
City chase race.
when we were younger, going to the bar to see how many guys you could flirt with
hmmm I don’t think that I can write it here :P
We tried on clothes and walked around the store like fashion models.
We went to a New Kids on the Block concert in 1991 dressed head to toe in LG73 (our local radio station) gear to try and win backstage passes. The pictures for this one are priceless!
Sing karaoke.
Recently took the gondola at a huge ski hill (first time ever). We were so high in the air, and the gondola was shaking, and we had no idea that you could see through the bottom. We were terrified and laughing so hard at the same time. It was a lot of fun, and that was mostly due to being there with my friend.
Good old girls night out. Nothing too exciting lol
Wore funky wigs when we went out.
Going out to the casino and having fun.
Going out clubbing and having a great time.
We once went on a scavenger hunt in the middle of the night. It was so funny.
okaying truth or dare at our adult slumber party
We don’t do things that are very funny. So I guess I’ll say when we cooked a fund-raising dinner from scratch for 200 people!
We have girls nights and act silly and have fun
