Injecting an outsiders view of the trios fray is Chelsea Handler whose character Trish is Laurens (Witherspoon) best friend. The inimitable talk show host, comedienne actor and author Handler intimates on her role as herself except that shes single in real life. Trish is basically me, but married, says Handler. Trish is not the best advisor, but Lauren needs her to provide a jolt of energy. Trish is a wife and mother whose mission in life is to offer frank and explicit opinions on her single friends love life.
In one of her outrageous lines in the movie on women empowerment, she tells Lauren You better get out there and do the things that every woman wants to do! relates Handler of one of her lines to get Lauren going on dating two gorgeous men at the same! time.
Says Witherspoon: Everybody has one of those crazy friends who does wacky things and lives vicariously through their dating friends. Ive known Chelsea for a while, and it was fun that we got to make this movie together. Shes just perfect person for the role.
