What is Annie's Bakery in bridesmaids? ›

She's always loved to bake, and opened up her own bakery, Cake Baby, with her (now ex) boyfriend. Unfortunately, Annie's business just failed, leaving her in debt, alone, and back at square one.

And McCarthy took the script and, per usual, made it her own. She improvised the whole firecracker thing, the stuff about being wealthy and her high security clearance.

Major uncredited appearances include: Jon Hamm as Ted, Annie's sex buddy; Grammy Award-winning accordionist, pianist, and composer Nick Ariondo as the accordion player; and Emmy, Drama Desk and Grammy Award winner Pat Carroll as the old woman in the car.

Moreover, there is a scene where she is in bed with her boyfriend and he touches and squeezes her breasts (she is wearing a bra) while making sexual (yet humorous) remarks. There is a particular scene where two of the bridesmaids kiss. Also, one of them discusses how her husband doesn't satisfy her enough.

The restaurant to which Annie takes Lillian and the girls to experience authentic Brazilian cuisine is La Sirenita, 14032 Oxnard Street, east of Hazeltine Avenue in Van Nuys. It's actually a Mexican restaurant, and the rear parking lot entrance that's seen.

Annie: Really quick! Speaking of Consuelo, Lillian and I took Spanish together in school. And so, I would just like to say to you and to everyone here, “Gracias para vivar en la casa, en la escuelas, en… en la azul… “markada”.

The real reason Hamm went uncredited was at his own demand; he felt that his serious, dramatic roles in Mad Men and The Town would mislead audiences into thinking Bridesmaids would be a drama instead of a comedy.

After she landed her role on Gilmore Girls, she confessed that she spent four months on a doctor-supervised all-liquid diet, which saw her lose 70lbs.

Interestingly, despite having considerable screen time, Hamm was not even credited in Bridesmaids at his own request, as he didn't want audiences to associate his reputation as a dramatic actor with the film.

The Emmy award-winning actor bagged a pretty notable role in the hit 2011 film. But to the surprise of many, Hamm revealed he actually didn't get anything for starring in the movie. Hamm's character Ted was Kristen Wiig's character Annie Walker's fling and “friend with benefits.”
