One of readers was lucky enough to be one of the partying extras in yesterday’s Spring Breakers scene at the Coral Reef Beach Resort in St. Petersburg, Florida.
She sent us a few juicy details from inside the shoot, which you can check out below:
There were about 300 extras [in the scene]. Some in the pool, some around it, and some on the balconies.
I actually was in Group A; one of the “special girls” and got paid $150 to do topless scenes! Three of the “special girls” were around the pool, while the other 6 were on the second floor around the DJ booth. We were all suppose to act like we were “partying”, “raging”, and/or “wasted”!
They filmed everyone in the pool partying scene about 4-5 times until they were finally happy with it.
Then, they had a camera in the air panning across the front of the balcony along with a camera man and director on the balcony directing the “special girls” where to be placed around the DJ. Some of the “extra” guys were ECSTATIC! The “special girls” danced around the DJ booth topless, making out with other girls, and getting motor boated! Never have I seen so many SOBER people get SO crazy! It was definitely A BLAST!
After shooting in the sun for 7 hours of just EXTRAS, Selena [Gomez] FINALLY had a part at the end of the day where we all had to pretend to be partying without saying anything so they could hear the dialog.
All in all it was an awesome day!
Spring Breakers follows four college girls (Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson and Heather Morris) who rob a fast-food restaurant to go to spring break and land themselves in jail. Along the way they meet up with a shady criminal who bails them out of jail in exchange for them killing his arch-rival. James Franco plays the criminal.
