Booty Call (1997) - This low budget (and lowbrow) romantic comedy is best known for launching the film career of Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx. The film is about a guy trying to christen his new relationship with a first night of sex, and it features future stars like Bernie Mac and Vivica A. Fox. On the film's 20th anniversary, here's a look at the cast who helped push the street term for a late-night search for fornication into the American vocabulary. (Photo: Columbia Pictures)

Vivica A. Fox - Vivica A. Fox starred as the no-nonsense character Lysterine, who ends up falling for Bunz. Since Booty Call, Fox has kept busy as one of Hollywood's hardest-working actresses. Since then, she went on to star in several films like the drama Dead End and the comedy It's Not You, It's Me. She also appeared on reality TV in the hit Celebrity Apprentice. Recently, though, she's been making more headlines for her feud with ex-boyfriend 50 Cent than her acting. (Photos from left: Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images, Columbia Pictures)
