A real exotic dancer inspired the character of Ramona, and she went by the name, Samantha Barbash. Barbash pled guilty to conspiracy, assault, and grand larceny.

She did so in exchange for five years probation in 2017 for scamming Wall Street clients out of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

FANGIRL MOMENT OF THE CAST

In the BTS video, Lopez looked stunning in a white off-the-shoulder outfit at At&T. The entire cast of "Hustlers" is seen fawning at the arrival of Tom Hanks during the photo session.

"I don't have any lip gloss on, am I allowed to stand there?" Hanks asked the cast as he joined them for a picture.
