“That’s why we went back and shot more Usher stuff [of him] saying ‘Remember what I taught you in dance class’ or whatever,” he said. “We went back and shot more scenes with Usher in Chicago, which was where he was doing an album, and intercut more.”

“Dulé’s this world-class tap-dancer,” Prinze told The Daily Beast. “When we were shooting the volleyball sequence at the beach, I heard him sliding and tapping his feet on the wood, and I said, ‘Are you tap dancing?’ And he said, ‘I’m a hoofer, man.’ And that’s how we bonded. We started going to this dance studio in Hollywood and we’d tap dance. We did it all the time.”

Prinze and Shankman immediately hit it off while filming the movie, leading to Shankman playing a large role in Prinze’s 2002 wedding. As he told Today, “The choreographer from She’s All That married my wife and I!”
