Too bad that she turned down the part !

She would have been the best thing in a bad movie.

And which side of the family would she have got her Chinese Filipino/Russian Jewish heritage/looks from? Steve Martin or Diane Keaton?

Damn. Really? I was always hoping she was Hawaiian or something. :-(

Why would you put a sad face over her real heritage versus being Hawaiian?

If she was from Hawaii, there would be like 40% Chance she's of Chinese descent.

That would've been interesting. Phoebe is arguably more beautiful than Kimberly Williams. But, the writing for Annie in this film is what made her a whiny, selfish, spoiled brat.
