At the 25th anniversary screening of 'Coyote Ugly', cast member Izabella Miko shared her journey from struggling in NYC to landing her role as Cammie. Miko reminisced about her past, including selling batteries and attending AA meetings, and discussed her visa complications during the casting process. Fellow cast members like Maria Bello and Tyra Banks joined the event, where they speculated on their characters' futures. Miko humorously suggested Cammie would embark on an ayahuasca journey, while Banks envisioned her character as a successful lawyer.
A year before Coyote, I was selling batteries in Times Square and going to AA meetings. I didn't have a drinking problem, but I wanted the free cookies and milk in the back.
I see girls walking in and auditioning for my part, just in case. It was just so heartbreaking.
I got my visa, then the next day I was on set.
Cammie goes to Colombia for an ayahuasca journey. She comes back and opens up an IV drip bar right next to Coyote Ugly.
