Trivia
Jake's backflips up and down the aisle were performed by a stuntman 'Jonathan Yarbrough'. He is more famously known as 'Jonathan Pendragon', of the magic duo The Pendragons
Because James Brown had trouble lip-syncing, all of his vocals were recorded live on the set. The band and the choir were all pre-recorded in the studio.
Many of the other scenes with dancing used amateurs, this scene used professional dancers to compensate.
