I think personally, it was the moment when I tried to do the choreography to You Cant Stop The Beat, along with the cast, and forgot that I was 50. That would be it for me 🙈
I have to say that I do like the of ending of the 2007 movie more than that of the musical. I didn't even realize it wasn't the ending of the musical because Inez winning just makes more sense. Little Inez winning the contest made her character and her mother's more important and actually made the Corny Collins show integrated. It's also a good change that the main character didn't win as Tracy doesn't even seem to care much about miss Teenage Hairspray so her winning doesn't do anything for her character arc. If anything seeing Inez win accomplishes her goal of getting to show to be integrated which winning THS doesn't really do.
Agree but I think Tracey winning helped her achieve her dreams to get into the college she wanted but yeah, Inez winning does make more sense for the show to be officially integrated.
@@mats460 I totally agree on both accounts. Inez winning is something bigger. Tracy already got on the show and even became famous; but Inez didnt even got the chance to audition because of her color so finally showing everyone she had what it takes and then winning seems like a bigger triumoh for the community that has been deprived. I also like the von Tussles' redemption. Like you said I ubderstand ehy the movie excluded it because it's unrealistic but I love how the theater play gives us the idea that these women are also subconciously tired of being stuck up all the time and just needs to let loose to be kinder. Ans the heroes made them realize that. It would have been satisfying to see them punished, but wouldnt it be better to see them get converted to allies? Besides they already had their comeuppance when Amber didnt win the pageant and Velma had to overcome her racism since she got a promotion.
I've never seen Hairspray but I did go crazy when I found out Dove & Kristen were playing mother & daughter duo again. I do have a upcoming Mal tutorial & I am trying to post a few Hairspray live videos Disney Descendants style on TikTok because why not, thought it would be funny plus some parts gave me Disney Descendants vibes like the song mama I'm a big girl now.
Have you seen Penny in the move? Literally wearing a skin-tight dress that only lets below her knees move a little bit. Every time I watch I'm scared she'll fall over lol
Boots are drastically easier to dance in even once those high compared to regular stiletto heels. Your foot is held in place by the boot, whereas a stiletto shoe or heel can fly off.
Yeah, and it made more sense that the show was officially integrated because she won. In this version, why is it suddenly officially integrated? Just cuz they’re dancing together? It doesn’t make sense
@@nicigiusto6124 the original movie says something like "blacks and whites seen together for the first time EVER on local TV. The corney collins show is now integrated." So maybe thats why... not just dancing together but just existing together. Looks like for the musical they altered it slightly
One of the best and yet underrated things about hairspray is their costume design. the outfits in the movie and as well as this live version are so good. Also casting Dove Cameron as Amber was perfect 👏👏👏👏
i personally don’t like how they watered down penny’s mother. in the movie it showed how penny could be independent and didn’t need her mothers approval. it was also a metaphor for how there’s always going to be people who disagree with ur choices no matter what and that you have to live your life regardless
I feel as though in the movie they showed a different side to where there's still racist people who aren't going to accept you and that not everything will be sunshine and rainbows. Just like how they also didn't include Amber and Velma joining in on you can't stop the beat, I liked how they didn't just get a freebie but instead they were left out because they quite frankly deserve to be left out.
For people stuck in their homes this gives a great bright shining light in these dark times. Music has always brought people together and we need that now
Sad that the fears expressed by Seaweed and Motormouth are just as realistic today as in 1962. We have so far to go. America’s original sin of slavery is still a stain on our society.
@@mee5780 we're talking about the black people getting killed by police. These facts are more relevant: In 2015 stats state that deaths for young balck men were 5 times higher than white men the same age. This isn't even including women statistics for that would be higher. Yes there is bad cops everywhere but the reasons why they're bad range from different areas, like corruption, abuse of power etc. And in America a lot of it is abuse of power but also racial prejudice. Its not just the cops but a lot of people are also people are racist because of lack of education etc.
@@mee5780 1. Police accept that danger when they join the force. It is their JOB. 2. Innocent civillians do not deserve to be killed by police regardless of how much danger the police are in. The fact you can't understand that is mind blowing.
I watched Hairspray for the first time ever on Friday when it was shown on this channel and I loved it - but, the fact that the racial aspect of the story still rung true today and felt even more relevant due to everything going on at the moment was incredibly upsetting.
@@Stopthisrightnow560 I didn't say otherwise. I agree with both your statements. My point is that not every case of bad policing is racist. Otherwise we'd have to accept the same in other countries. Also...please go and google Jarrett Maupin (BLM activist) face police firearm training to see how he was able empathise with the police. I cry when I see the video of Walter Scott, George Floyd. These are horrific incidents. I also cry when I saw Tony Tempa, and when I read about Jeremy Mardis, Rhogena Nicholas, Kelly Thomas. Not every incident of bad policing is due to racism. It shouldn't be the default reason for police brutality.
i HATE that tracy won. there was so much significance when Ines won. guys i’m very much aware that’s how the original ends, but the 2007 one was changed to Ines for a reason
Yel Kempis right!!! Ladies choice is so much more entertaining than the sophomore hop where they dance the Madison, it’s lively it’s fun and it’s better music. And then Tracy winning doesn’t make much sense other than her wanting to go to college but, I remember I saw the movie before watching the stage production and when I found out Tracy win I was so disappointed. Ines winning felt satisfying and well deserved and gave a very firm foundation and reason for why the show should be integrated and it got her on the show which does more justice to her characters importance than just one off remark. They should’ve added that, it would’ve been so much better.
This is good, but I must say I prefer how the movie ends, Inez winning does so much more for the message of the whole thing as all Tracy wanted was for the show to be integrated, she didn't seem to care much about winning, and also I think that Penny could probably have been cast better, in my opinion her voice just doesn't lend itself well to musical theatre
I heard that Ariana requested the role or something. My facts probably aren't straight but if you want to know more about that I think there is a video about that. Ariana said Penny was always her favorite in Hairspray when she used to go see it.
This has nothing to do with Inez winning but I agree she should of won it made more sense but is no one gonna talk about how Tracy stepped on link’s foot Edit: it’s probably part of the choreography but Velma and Amber were annoyed and mad when Tracy came back and everyone comes and dances in there faces to rub it in I thought it was weird and funny. If ur confused on what I am talking about I mean when Inez came in with the other people
@@dgaller06 she did, but she's moved to a very different style of music and singing (which is still great imo!!) her diction just isn't as clear as it should be anymore for a stage musical
I think Ari actually has talent for musical theatre, she was on bway wen she was younger. But idk if she's a good fit for certain shows, such as this one. And maybe she sang a little different she'd be great
I wouldn't mind seeing the musical version of Legally Blonde on this channel. That would be a first for it. It first appeared on MTV so I've learned. Maybe it can have its first appearance here.
personally i think, that the main character had struggles with breathing and they singing is quite off....but the dancimgs great and not everyone can handle dancing and singing at the same time, since it's really difficult...
Honestly, I feel like this Tracy conveyed the “I am who I am and you cannot take that from me” feeling of this number the best. She truly seems confident and sure that she, and everyone, has their own worth.
Can we please get a revival of this show after all this craziness!!? This song is perfect for Broadway's return, because the beat cannot and will not be stopped!
I think they meshed the 2007 and the 1988 version together in this work. I feel like some nervousness shows in the casts as they perform but it still worked out in my opinion. I still fangirl when it comes to Penweed!! They are the OTP for me still.
EVERYONE in this ensemble did an OUTSTANDING job. That being said, can we take a moment to recognize the talent that is Ephraim Sykes. Literally, every artistic choice he made in this number was perfect.
I'm always annoyed when Penny doesn't get to keep her checkerboard dress from the show, but they did a great job all the same. The show begins and ends on such high notes that listening never gets stale. Hairspray's such a fun and important show. I hope it comes back to New York someday soon :D
Got breathless just watching them sing!!! You have no idea how much breathe you'll have to take in between verses just to get through that entire song!! Not to imagine doing the choreo!!! 💀 Did this musical for school and that song killed me!
Tracy: integrates the show and proves that black people should have equal opportunity Hair spray Guy: appoints a racist white woman as head of beauty products specifically made for women of color.
I saw Hairspray on Broadway back in the 8th grade for the end of the school year class trip with my chorus group and Harvey Fierstien was Edna and seeing him as Edna here, brings back so many memories.
So sad. Being a school night, my daughter and I stayed up last night to watch this together, but she couldn't keep her eyes open til the end, so we decided we would watch the end together this morning over her birthday breakfast, but our stove bombed out and it took over an hour to get breakfast sorted and the video expired about 20 minutes before the end of the show. So devastated! Hopefully one day we get to see what happens in the end.
I really wanted to like this but honestly, I feel like they might have gone wrong in casting a bit. It almost feels like they tried to pack star potential rather than seeking what worked best for the role. Course, this is simply a fan opinion. I'm no musical or casting director
I agree. Tracy, Corny Collins, Velma, and Seaweed seem very well cast. I personally don’t love Harvey Fierstein in this, and I think that both dove Cameron and Ariana Grande did not fit their roles. Ariana Grande has a much “popier” voice that does not fit this show, and Dove Cameron seemed very flat in her acting; I would have preferred her as penny.
Hairspray live is meant to be fun and a one time thing, where fans can see celebrities take part in a professional musical, if you wanted to see a better cast without the stars then the original broadway one is probably better for you, obviously they have to have some degree of talent there which I’m sure u can see, but this is obviously created for the intention of the celebrities fans
All of these musical live shows (grease live, hairspray live, etc) purposely to like showcase celebrities doing professional musicals. So while some of the casting might have not been perfect, they did what other live musicals do (packed star power).
I don’t know how accurate this is to the actual broadway production but the dialogue is so rocky. it feels like a bunch of one liners rather than a conversation or a flow of events. that being said, they sounded pretty great for singing this live, this is like the hardest song to maintain breath support for lol!
Actually the whole production was pretty accurate except for the fact that they removed the opening number from act II. In this number there were only like two lines changed. And yeah it is a heavy number. Even for the movie which was pre recorded, the cast called it "you can't stop to breathe".
idk about castings but tracy, penny, seaweed and link were really good. like i had to watch this four times to focus on each one of them performing. THE STAGE PRESENCE RLLY GOT ME UGH
Ariana grande didn’t really fit her role, and dove Cameron would have fit better as penny. I agree that Jennifer Hudson was good, as well as Kristen Chenoweth as Velma. Other than that the cast was ok.
@@Blue-xt7kc I'm not sure if you know who Micheal Ball is (He played Edna in the UK Tour) I really wish they would've had him as Edna. Even thought Harvey is the original, it just didn't fit that much in this version.
Please upload "I Know Where I've Been". Not only is Jennifer Hudson a QUEEN, but the song is so important and needs to be heard again and again, especially now because sadly, in 2020 it is still just too damn relevant.
The Shows Must Go On! I love this Rock Song. It was transcribed for Guitar by an artist that recently died named Eddie Van Halen. RIP Eddie, you'll always be a source of inspiration.
Wanted to watch it yesterday but said it wasn't available, that's not fair. It's the first one I miss, I even tried 3 times, once on Friday and twice on Saturday 😭😭
It's going to take a miracle to get networks to give us musicals like this again. Way too many people, too much virus worry. But thank God we had this happen, as well as Fox's Grease.
I was crush in this song because i will be able to be Ordinary people in this show. It shows in 1960s america but i can see that moment in 2023. There are a lot of times that i can feel my limitness these day. I really know about my troubles that i have but i believe i can do anything! Thanks for this song and film.
What was your favourite moment from Hairspray Live?
I think personally, it was the moment when I tried to do the choreography to You Cant Stop The Beat, along with the cast, and forgot that I was 50. That would be it for me 🙈
Big, blonde, and beautiful :)
The end.
The vocals wasn't good.

Tracy played her Reverse Card brilliantly.
One of the best and yet underrated things about hairspray is their costume design. the outfits in the movie and as well as this live version are so good. Also casting Dove Cameron as Amber was perfect 👏👏👏👏
Agreed! Harvey Fierstein (Edna Turnblad) said that the breasts that he wore were 25 pounds each and the butt was about 50 pounds😬
Different costumes entirely in both
I really like how Penny’s mom accepts Seaweed because he makes Penny happy. I wish that part had been in the movie.
Fun fact for you, Penny’s mom in the Movie only had about 3 minutes of screen time
i personally don’t like how they watered down penny’s mother. in the movie it showed how penny could be independent and didn’t need her mothers approval. it was also a metaphor for how there’s always going to be people who disagree with ur choices no matter what and that you have to live your life regardless

I remember watching this. It's nice to see how all the characters are dancing together at the end
Last night I was watching then decided to go to bed once it was 1am but now I only got to watch half of it since today it was gone
We need multiple national tours of Hairspray over the next couple of years.
Honestly, any time we get to see Harvey Fierstein perform in drag (in his legendary Tony-winning role no less) is a damn good day in America
We need Tracey, Seaweed, Penny, Motormouth and the others (except The Von Tussle's) in these times! I know they would help make things right!
I think that we need Von Tussle too: it's great when someone doesn't see difference between people, but is AMAZING when someone changes his/her mind!

Sitting here and really hoping they upload “I Know Where I’ve Been” because oh lordy the feels get me in that song - and it got the actors too!
Once again, thank you for sharing this show.
respect for this honestly because this song is hard to find breaks to breathe and even if they took breaths that were obvious they killed it

So devastated! Hopefully one day we get to see what happens in the end.
I saw a few people on the full thing say that it was on daily motion in parts I will go try to find it and link it 😁
Oh man that's unfortunate. Hope she had a lovely birthday anyways! 🌻
@@gggriffith1579 Thanks for that! I'll have a look. That would be awesome :)
@@lilianrebelle9224 Aww, thanks x
Although I do think this version has the parts in between from the original broadcast when they spoke to people about it, hope it isn't too annoying
I CANNOT stop watching this!! Whoever the choreographer was is a GENIUS! Pure Gold!!
This was an awesome show!👍 Really brightened my day and got me singing along! 💃
*"I **_CAN'T_** sit down! I **_CAN'T_** sit down!"*
*TEN! TEN!!*
I really wanted to like this but honestly, I feel like they might have gone wrong in casting a bit. It almost feels like they tried to pack star potential rather than seeking what worked best for the role. Course, this is simply a fan opinion. I'm no musical or casting director
I agree. Tracy, Corny Collins, Velma, and Seaweed seem very well cast. I personally don’t love Harvey Fierstein in this, and I think that both dove Cameron and Ariana Grande did not fit their roles. Ariana Grande has a much “popier” voice that does not fit this show, and Dove Cameron seemed very flat in her acting; I would have preferred her as penny.
Hairspray live is meant to be fun and a one time thing, where fans can see celebrities take part in a professional musical, if you wanted to see a better cast without the stars then the original broadway one is probably better for you, obviously they have to have some degree of talent there which I’m sure u can see, but this is obviously created for the intention of the celebrities fans
All of these musical live shows (grease live, hairspray live, etc) purposely to like showcase celebrities doing professional musicals. So while some of the casting might have not been perfect, they did what other live musicals do (packed star power).
I didn’t think tracy fit her role I think she was picked cause she was plus-sized she couldn’t dance like the original tracy
@@Blue-xt7kc I saw it on Broadway with Harvey twice---he plays it much better in a room of people (the whole time).
Most of these live performances blow me away with how much talent they showcase.
Love this musical, It wasn't available in my country apparently
This song will always make my heart happy 💕
It was great.......saw it twice......it is one of my top 5 shows! Thank you! ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
This is one of my favorite movies! Still speaks volumes to this day!!!
Even though Garrett Clayton is gay I still have a crush for him
This never gets old never. It’s like watching it for the first time all over again. A roller coaster of goosebumps. I love it
I don’t know how accurate this is to the actual broadway production but the dialogue is so rocky. it feels like a bunch of one liners rather than a conversation or a flow of events. that being said, they sounded pretty great for singing this live, this is like the hardest song to maintain breath support for lol!
Actually the whole production was pretty accurate except for the fact that they removed the opening number from act II. In this number there were only like two lines changed. And yeah it is a heavy number. Even for the movie which was pre recorded, the cast called it "you can't stop to breathe".
@@evandangel8173 also Tracy didn’t win
@@sahayplayz that’s how it is orginally Amber won and Tracy doesn’t care that she won or at least in the one of the versions
This is one of the most joyous, triumphant moments in musical theatre history.
In comparing the 2007 movie to this Live version, I've realized that they both cast Disney movie stars for Link and Nickelodeon stars for Penny.
Maddie was such a great Tracy
idk about castings but tracy, penny, seaweed and link were really good. like i had to watch this four times to focus on each one of them performing. THE STAGE PRESENCE RLLY GOT ME UGH
This whole thing got me rolling and dancing with them
"If Tracy came in through the FRONT door, then who the heck is hiding in that can?!"
What a delightful performance! Cant help but bop to the beat!
i really enjoy watch the live stream of hairspray looking forward to the next show hoping it be the wiz live that my fav nba live show
this song is very much needed in our time.
Can everyone agree that Motormouths gold catsuit was everything
Jennifer set in interviews that it was also extremely heavy and hard to move in. Lolzz
I Love ❤All The Hairspray Movies 🎬
I was dancing and singing along
This part right here was my favorite part
i love this but ariana sounds like she's singing in an 8pt cursive font
Holy shit, this might be the best analogy for Ariana's singing I've ever read!!
SCREAMINGG
KiloD thank u thank u
Your pfp! You wiiiiiiiilll BE MORE CHILL!
This wins the internet
This is absolutely iconic
It's ok.
I'm impressed with Jennifer Hudson taking on the role of Maybelle.
Ariana grande didn’t really fit her role, and dove Cameron would have fit better as penny. I agree that Jennifer Hudson was good, as well as Kristen Chenoweth as Velma. Other than that the cast was ok.
@@Blue-xt7kc I agree with you entirely.
Same, hun. Same. :(
@@Blue-xt7kc
Oh shit I didn't even think of that. Dove would have been a much better Penny than Ariana!
@@Blue-xt7kc I'm not sure if you know who Micheal Ball is (He played Edna in the UK Tour) I really wish they would've had him as Edna. Even thought Harvey is the original, it just didn't fit that much in this version.
This scene ALWAYS puts me in the best of moods! XD
Please upload "I Know Where I've Been". Not only is Jennifer Hudson a QUEEN, but the song is so important and needs to be heard again and again, especially now because sadly, in 2020 it is still just too damn relevant.
happychaosofthenorth - I agree ❤️ - listen everyday.... 🤗
The Shows Must Go On! I love this Rock Song. It was transcribed for Guitar by an artist that recently died named Eddie Van Halen. RIP Eddie, you'll always be a source of inspiration.
Wanted to watch it yesterday but said it wasn't available, that's not fair. It's the first one I miss, I even tried 3 times, once on Friday and twice on Saturday 😭😭
It's going to take a miracle to get networks to give us musicals like this again. Way too many people, too much virus worry. But thank God we had this happen, as well as Fox's Grease.
This scene is just amazing let’s be honest
From The moment that this came out a few years ago I got the dvd super fast ❤️
I love hairspray Live it's my favorite musical movie
I love Hairspray. It's my favorite Broadway Musical
Tomorrow is a brand new day, and it don't know white from black
Ha ha ha...... yeah....
Little did they know...😔
Eponine?
I like how they have some of the OG cast of the first run
I JUST MISSED IT
Same :(
I had downloaded it, before I watched it :)
@@kitiket8016 I was going to do that, but I forgot because I have finals
You can find it online! It's Hairspray Live from 2016 :) Hope you can find it
@@ashildrtheswift3028 Can you give me a hint? Consider me an old lady who doesn't know all the GOOD places.
I was crush in this song because i will be able to be Ordinary people in this show. It shows in 1960s america but i can see that moment in 2023. There are a lot of times that i can feel my limitness these day. I really know about my troubles that i have but i believe i can do anything! Thanks for this song and film.
