"Senior Year" takes place during the late 1990s and early 2000s, so the hair and makeup team took a lot of inspiration from famous pop and movie stars of the time. "We kept coming back to celebrities like Christina Aguilera, and Kirsten Dunst, and certainly Britney Spears," Melanie Hughes-Weaver, makeup department head of the movie, tells POPSUGAR.
Stephanie even had a poster of Spears on her wall, signifying just how influential the singer was on the character. But that's not where the Spears references end. "We had a flashback of "Crazy" where we're going back to Britney Spears at that time," says Cheryl Marks, the movie's hair department head. "That's one of my favourite scenes."
