Quotes 

• Nikki : [annoyed]  Didn't your mama ever tell you it's not polite to stare?

  Ali Rose : You-You're just so damn beautiful, I...

  Nikki : Well in that case, screw your mama and stare away.

  Ali Rose : No one would *ever* know.

  Nikki : Know what?

  Ali Rose : That you're a dude.

• Nikki : I don't get why everyone's having a conniption over her, she's just a tacky farm girl from Iowa.

  Ali Rose : And we know a cow when we see one. Don't underestimate us farm girls.

• Nikki : How come I don't have a nickname?

  Scarlett : Oh, you do.

  Nikki : Well, he never uses it.

  Sean : Oh, I do.

  Nikki : When?

  [walks down stairs] 

  Sean : When you leave the room!

  [whispers] 

  Sean : Slut!

  Sean : I heard that!

• Nikki : What the hell is that waitress doing here? I want that bitch *out*.

  Sean : And what did she *ever* do to you?

  Nikki : She said I looked like a drag queen!

  Sean : Well, that can't be the first time that's happened before.

• Nikki : [Waiting for Tess as she is exiting the club]  Tess, we need to talk.

  Tess : No.

  Nikki : Yes!

  Tess : I'm tired, Nikki.

  Nikki : Well, then you can just listen. We built this club together and, and then, some girl just shows up from out of nowhere, who hasn't even paid her dues - -!

  Tess : How do you know what dues she's paid? This chick doesn't sing that way because she's had it easy.

  Nikki : "They don't come to here us sing, Nikki"! Or... or, or, is that... is that just bullshit, now?

  Tess : You know, you're drunk. Go inside and call a cab.

  Nikki : I WILL NOT BE UPSTAGED BY SOME SLUT WITH MUTANT LUNGS!

  Tess : Then leave!

  Nikki : [Gasps]  You'd ruin our friendship over some girl you barely know? So much for loyalty!

  Tess : Since when did you know anything about loyalty? How many Goddamn times have I peeled you off the sidewalk? How many blackouts? How many times have I held your head over the toilet bowl while you threw up everything, but your memories?

  Nikki : OKAY FINE! But I will not stand in the back, Tess, you need to fix this-...

  Tess : You think you're my only problem? I'm about to lose my club! I'm about to lose the only thing that means anything to me! I have more to worry about than trying to keep you from pouring Tequila on your Cheerios!

  Nikki : Fine. Fine. I QUIT!

  Tess : I'm glad!

  [Nikki gets into her car and starts the engine] 

  Tess : Nikki, don't drive.

  Nikki : By the way, I slept with Vince the night after your honeymoon.

  [She makes a U-Turn and begins driving off in a rage, with Tess bashing Nikki's backdoor window with a crowbar] 

  Nikki : YOU CRAZY BITCH!
