What's left behind the scenes

  • The only scene filmed inside a Las Vegas casino was the very first scene, where Nomie plays the slot machines.
  • Joe Eszterhas came up with the name Nomi Malone by combining his wife's nickname – Nomi (her real name is Naomi) and the surname Malone, believing it resonated with the word "alone".
  • For the filming of the dance scenes, Elizabeth Berkley worked sixteen hours a day in high heels.
  • Charlize Theron auditioned for the role of Nomi Malone.
  • Sharon Stone and Finola Hughes auditioned for the role of Crystal Connors.
  • Gina Gershon refused to recreate the famous leg-crossing scene from "Basic Instinct" (1992).
  • Jenny McCarthy auditioned for the lead role and almost got it, but it turned out at the last moment that she couldn't dance.
  • Paul Verhoeven and Joe Eszterhas planned a sequel where Nomi would go to Los Angeles to conquer Hollywood.
  • In the edited version of the film for television, Paul Verhoeven is credited as Yen Jensen.
  • Joe Eszterhas came up with the film's plot while on vacation in Hawaii. Joe received $2 million as an advance and another $1.7 million after filming was completed.
  • The producers wanted Madonna to play Crystal Connors and Drew Barrymore to play Nomi Malone.
  • For the first time in the history of the Golden Raspberry Awards, film director Paul Verhoeven personally attended the ceremony to accept awards in the categories of 'Worst Director' and 'Worst Film'.
  • After the film flopped at the box office and received seven Golden Raspberry Awards, studio MGM/UA attempted to turn the situation to its advantage by advertising the film as a 'cult midnight movie': advertisements for late-night screenings were placed in Los Angeles newspapers, mentioning, among other things, that the film had received seven Golden Raspberry Awards. Despite this unconventional approach, the advertising campaign was also unsuccessful.
  • As of early 2008, 'Showgirls' held the record for the NC-17 rated film released in the largest number of theaters – 1388.
