Coyote Ugly Cast Reunites for 25th Anniversary Party—And It’s for a Good Cause!
Grab your glitter and leather because the beloved cast of *Coyote Ugly* is getting together to celebrate the film’s 25th anniversary! Mark your calendars for February 26, 2025, when they’ll take over the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica for a screening and Q&A that not only lets fans relive the wild fun of the 2000 classic but also raises funds for wildfire relief through Global Empowerment Mission. That’s right—you’re going to get the chance to see Piper Perabo, Tyra Banks, Maria Bello, Izabella Miko, Melanie Lynskey, and LeAnn Rimes, all in one place, and listen to untold stories that went on behind the scenes.
It’s been a tough time for many in Los Angeles lately, especially with the devastating wildfires that have ravaged the area, leaving over 29 people dead and thousands displaced. Among these was Tyra Banks, who actually lost her home in recent fires. So, this reunion isn’t just all fun and games; it’s about giving back, too! As Melanie Lynskey puts it, “We’re all gonna get back on stage,” and it’s clear they’re rallying together to support each other and the community.
What’s a Coyote Ugly celebration without the iconic music? Diane Warren, the songwriting genius behind the film’s hit “Can’t Fight the Moonlight,” will also be gracing the event with her presence. Fans can expect to witness the same vibrant energy that made the film a cult classic, which centers on Perabo’s character, Violet Sanford, a small-town girl chasing her big-city dreams in Manhattan while bartending at the original Coyote Ugly—yes, it’s a real place that still buzzes with energy in NYC’s East Village.
The reunion is not only a nostalgic trip down memory lane for fans of the film; it’s also a poignant reminder of the power of community support during tough times. Tickets for this must-see event are already available, so don’t sleep on this opportunity to go back in time while also doing some good. It’s a win-win if you ask us!
