Violet Sanford (Piper Perabo), an aspiring songwriter, leaves her home and her father Bill Sanford (John Goodman) to pursue her dream in New York City. While she tries, unsuccessfully, to get her demo tape to be noticed by the studios, she meets a group of bartenders in a local hot spot called Coyote Ugly. She is hired by the bar's owner Lil (Maria Bello) and must learn the ropes of singing, dancing, and performing wild acts before a rowdy crowd. Romantic interest Kevin O'Donnell (Adam Garcia) tries to help her in overcoming her shyness.
Unrated edition
In
summer 2005 an unrated special edition of the film (the original release was rated
PG-13 and the director's cut rated R) was released on DVD. The extended cut adds
approximately six minutes to the film's runtime, most of which consists of additional
shots of the coyotes dancing on the bar and of Violet and Cammie (Izabella Miko)
trying on different outfits while shopping. Arguably the most notable additions
are the extension of the sex scene between Violet and Kevin (Piper Perabo used
a body double for most of the scene), and the inclusion of an additional scene,
which shows the "coyotes" winning a baseball game because Cammie distracts
the pitcher by stripping.

The Coyote Ugly Saloon first opened on January 27, 1993 in New York City, after New York University alumna Liliana Lovell eschewed a life on Wall Street for a life in bartending. Having held several bartending jobs during college where Lovell perfected her unique routine of dancing on the bar, singing, and challenging customers to drinking contests, she applied her business model, learned from her former boss, legendary and notorious New York City bar owner, Tom McNeill, whom she worked for at the West Village Saloon, The Village Idiot, prior to opening Coyote Ugly, of "beautiful girls + booze as money" to Coyote Ugly. She began hiring girls and training them in the wild routine, which included such antics as chugging alcohol, setting light to it then breathing fire. While some girls were good at singing, others good at dancing, and others good at yelling, Lovell found that not all the girls were talented in each of the three aspects, so she often paired girls with complementary abilities.
