The books are noted for containing many popular culture references, which include singers, movies, and fads in modern culture. Meg Cabot quotes the series' inspiration on her website stating: "I was inspired to write The Princess Diaries when my mom, after the death of my father, began dating one of my teachers; they later went on to get married just as Mia's mom does in the book! I have always had a 'thing' for princesses so I stuck a princess in the book just for kicks... and VOILÀ! The Princess Diaries was born."
