"(My favorite moment on set) was probably every time Adam said, 'I’m going to go play basketball during this scene,'" she told OK! at the MTV Movie Awards. "That was a lot of times. He loves his basketball. He always writes it into his scripts. It’s hilarious. You’ll see it. I play basketball in the movie, too."

It took her a minute, but ever the professional, Bella brought her A-game.
