I love Amber isn't a villan per say, but just grow up in a toxic environment serving to be her mother's way to liver hear dreams through Amber. That's why I love when she: 1- Recognizes that she lost 2 - Got attracted to a black guy 3 - Broke her prejudice to go to him and learn some moves from him This is all the redemption arc she needs in my eye, because this shows that, thou she is very much controlled by her mom, when time comes to push and her mother all the power she have over other people, Amber chooses by herself to do the things she was probably wanting to do for a long time This movie is so perfect, and this ending never fails to make me happy
If you go to 8:49 and look at the left side you can see Amber and that same guy dancing, he lifted her off the ground and is spinning her. She looks so happy, it is absolutely adorable!! ❤
4:06 For being one of the main two antagonists in the 2007 musical reboot movie of Hairspray, it was actually quite surprisingly that unlike her mother, Amber actually became a good loser not gonna lie right there.
Yes although Amber sounded sad and disappointed that she lost she just simply expressed to her mother that she lost no asking her mom to fix it which to me shows she's a good loser when she loses her mother on the other hand is a sore loser
I love the fact that Amber was just raised terribly by Velma and that’s the reason for her entire personality, she didn’t even know that Velma was cheating for her
Iojd and his you can be a little different if you’re not too familiar to me now and then but you get a chance and bring your friends in for the weekend if that’s what does the doctor wants and if’s fine fb and you know what you need me too but I don’t have any business 👩💼 With the doctors and very few doctors and nurses and nurses in between and they don’t know anything so hopefully they get better ❤️🩹 and for me it’s my first week off because of my surgery so hopefully I’ll have to get first day of school done ✅ I love ❤️ how you doing

Reading these comments makes me so happy. This version of Hairspray is truly ICONIC. Hairspray Live! on NBC was good but just doesn’t compare to the 2007 masterpiece. I was 12 when I saw it in theaters. I remember taking the online personality quiz and I got Penny. I met Amanda Bynes shortly after the movie release too and she was such a sweetheart. Hairspray gave me so much hope and positive representation as a mixed kid in a predominantly white suburban town. My hometown is a lot more diverse now than it was back then and my heart is just so happy and full. I loved seeing the characters in the movie come together to fight for justice and integration, the interracial couple pairings, Tracy’s symbolic checkerboard dress, Link and Inez dancing, Corny embracing his show’s changes, Amber redeeming herself, and Velma getting fired. My favorite part was when Inez won the pageant. I learned the lyrics and dances surprisingly fast because the music is just THAT good. I remember wishing my school drama club had made this be the spring musical. But NOPE! Kids at school used to laugh at me for liking this movie and for dressing like the characters. But I recently healed my inner child and learned a Hairspray combination in my dance class. Besides the fact that this movie’s so bright and colorful, I just love the overall message and what it stands for. It doesn’t matter if you’re black, white, skinny, fat, or whatever. We all deserve love, equality, happiness, and to live in a world where we can be loved and dance freely.
I love that integration came true through a victory and a literal crowning of a very deserving Inez by the TV host in the movie and given its due time instead of just a thrown away line lost in the middle of a music number like in the show! Seeing everybody smile or be happily surprised at Inez's victory was absolutely wholesome!! 🤩
I was 16 when this movie came out and this was the first ever hollywood musical I had watched in my small Indian town - I couldn't speak English nor understand it but I understood the music and the mood - it was extremely inspiring - still is!
She also plays Lamia in "Stardust" who is one of the three sister witches (she plays the one who is clearly the leader) and does a fantastic job as that villain too.
One of my favorite movie ending moments ever it’s fun to remember fave memories of dancing and singing to this ending song love it so fun but a bit exhausting I still occasionally sing and dance to it I love this ending is always timeless ! ❤🥰🤗🎶👏🏻
The music mix here from the film sounds so much better than the abridged, crushed mix on the soundtrack release, a crime we didn’t get this more complete, more dynamic version.
I love Amber's mother (can't remember her name) is such a carefully created character. FAME is everything. Even above her own prejudice. She won't sick the cops on a black man until they go to commercial break. Because then she looks bad and her fame is gone. It's SUCH a clever touch.
MOTORMOUTH (to Velma) Step aside, Miss Buttercup... it's time to wrap this mutha' up! Oh, oh, oh, You can't stop today ENSEMBLE ...No! MOTORMOUTH As it comes speeding down the track ENSEMBLE Ooo ooo ooo, child, yes MOTORMOUTH Child, yesterday is hist'ry ENSEMBLE Be gone! MOTORMOUTH And it's never coming back ENSEMBLE Look ahead MOTORMOUTH & ENSEMBLE 'Cause tomorrow is a brand new day MOTORMOUTH And it don't know white from black ENSEMBLE Yeah! MOTORMOUTH & ENSEMBLE 'Cause the world keeps spinning 'Round and 'round And my heart's keeping time To the speed of sound I was lost til i heard the drums Then i found my way 'Cause you cant stop the beat ALL Ever since we first saw the light A man and woman liked to shake it On a saturday night And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it With all my might today 'Cause you can't stop The motion of the ocean Or the rain from above They can try to stop ths paradise We're dreaming of But you cannot stop the rhythm Of two hearts in love to stay You can't stop the beat! Aah, aah, aah Aah, aah, aah Aah, aah, aah Come on, you von tussles Go on, shake your fanny muscles
3:57- I have a feeling amber’s going to do okay. Especially after her mom gets put into her place. I think she’ll learn that her mom isn’t always correct. Even her mom knows. “Amber stop that!” XD This woman has an eye for teenage eyeballing
I love Velma was just like "Amber should've won because I fixed it!" then a few minutes later she saw Amber noticing a black dancer and going to try and dance with him and Velma was just noticing like "What's she doing? She shouldn't start liking him!"
Amber gracefully her defeat unlike Velma, who acted more like a brooding child who can't fathom that her evil ways have failed her. As Taylor Swift once said, "Karma is on your scent like a bounty hunter. She's gonna track you down..."
Fun Fact: the Cast and Crew nicknamed this song "You Can't Stop to Breathe" because it went so fast that they were constantly fighting to not pass out from lack of air
Kinda sucks that Glee didn't keep Travolta's verse in their version. I think it has a good a message, and if people found it demeaning to those obese, then they could've altered the line to make it inclusive. They had heavy set characters on the cast anyway, shouldn't have been a problem. I just like the delivery for the "And if you don't like the way I look, well I just don't give a damn" line. It sounds so good. Edit: I also liked how the cameraman complimented how the shot looked. I don't remember if he too was done with Velma's shit or if he was genuinely complimenting the work lol.

Your honor, I rest my case
@@satan652i wish they had done a close up shot of that to make it more clear, it really ties up ambers character!
@@nick2678they close up on them in the alternate ending i wish they kept it in the final cut 😭
@@satan652I didn’t even notice that until you said something and I’ve seen hairspray so many times
Best.ending.ever

this movie was my childhood
Facts I watched this movie so many times as the child and I love the original originals great too
One of the best musical films of all time. God this brings back so much nostalgia.
I was so lucky I saw it on the day it came out!
"Amber, stop it!" My favorite😂 Stop eyeing that man!

What a cast from Michelle, to Queen, to Amanda, to Travolta this cast is great.
8:19 I dont blame the way queen Latifah looked James Madsen. He was hot in this movie! 😊
Right like I shipped them so hard back then! 😂
Not gonna lie, I’m pretty sure I actually thought they were dating when I was a kid.
Did anyone see Amber at the end 8:49
On the left side glad she got her happy ending too😊
Wow, I never noticed that before! LOVE IT! 🫶🏼
@ yea
Casting John Travolta as the mother is genius!
He was great in that role
It's a tradition since Divine.
I love that integration came true through a victory and a literal crowning of a very deserving Inez by the TV host in the movie and given its due time instead of just a thrown away line lost in the middle of a music number like in the show!

Michelle Pfeiffer was phenomenal at playing a despicable person. She really makes Velma a wonderful character to watch
Definitely! She was my favorite!
She also plays Lamia in "Stardust" who is one of the three sister witches (she plays the one who is clearly the leader) and does a fantastic job as that villain too.

James marsden is such a hunk lol beautiful
3:58 Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss. RIP 😢
Where ? Which scene?
I’ve watched this so many times and I just noticed ❤
What?! That’s him?!
@@rosajessica7405 Yeah.
Indeed. Twitch. The one who's flirting with Amber (much seen on the deleted scene), and who is wearing the maroon suit (or maybe brown)
4:39 you can see amber learning dance moves from the black guy she was staring at. 8:49 you can see amber in the black guys arms.
Why do Travolta and Walken have to much chemistry. I believe that couple had more chemistry than any of the other couples on this show
Joy joy joy! What a joyful number!
The music mix here from the film sounds so much better than the abridged, crushed mix on the soundtrack release, a crime we didn’t get this more complete, more dynamic version.
I really wish the LIVE version of Hairspray was on UA-cam like Rent Live
She tried to wipe the screen with the black dude on there, thats wild😂
I love Amber's mother (can't remember her name) is such a carefully created character. FAME is everything. Even above her own prejudice. She won't sick the cops on a black man until they go to commercial break. Because then she looks bad and her fame is gone. It's SUCH a clever touch.
Velma.
MOTORMOUTH (to Velma)
Step aside, Miss Buttercup... it's
time to wrap this mutha' up!
Oh, oh, oh,
You can't stop today
ENSEMBLE
...No!
MOTORMOUTH
As it comes speeding down the track
ENSEMBLE
Ooo ooo ooo, child, yes
MOTORMOUTH
Child, yesterday is hist'ry
ENSEMBLE
Be gone!
MOTORMOUTH
And it's never coming back
ENSEMBLE
Look ahead
MOTORMOUTH & ENSEMBLE
'Cause tomorrow is a brand new day
MOTORMOUTH
And it don't know white from black
ENSEMBLE
Yeah!
MOTORMOUTH & ENSEMBLE
'Cause the world keeps spinning
'Round and 'round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til i heard the drums
Then i found my way
'Cause you cant stop the beat
ALL
Ever since we first saw the light
A man and woman liked to shake it
On a saturday night
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it
With all my might today
'Cause you can't stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the rain from above
They can try to stop ths paradise
We're dreaming of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
Of two hearts in love to stay
You can't stop the beat!
Aah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aah
Come on, you von tussles
Go on, shake your fanny muscles
Mabel’s part is so iconic, I always find myself replaying it over and over again ❤
R.I.P. Twitch. No matter the style of dance you shone.
I would die for this movie.
I love that Velma got fired. She deserved it after everything she did.
I love that Corny just totally embraces this and shows no dominant white male toxicity, it's awesome!
If I remember right, in both versions, Corny keeps pushing for this outcome but gets pushback from Velma and the station
@@edwarddeguzman3258 awesome on Corny!
Yeah he was very laid back about it, because there was no dominant white male toxicity, he was just threatened by Velma. He wanted this to happen.
He was just waiting for his chance.
3:57- I have a feeling amber’s going to do okay. Especially after her mom gets put into her place. I think she’ll learn that her mom isn’t always correct. Even her mom knows.

😂
Someone mentioned that the cast actually renamed the song You Can't Stop to Breathe
Bravo! What a nice dance!
Amber gracefully her defeat unlike Velma, who acted more like a brooding child who can't fathom that her evil ways have failed her. As Taylor Swift once said, "Karma is on your scent like a bounty hunter. She's gonna track you down..."
I love hairspray I hope they make a part 2
yeah sad they won’t have amanda bynes 🥺
John Travolta should've won a ton of awards for portraying Edna Turnblad. Periodt.
4:57 the saxophone🫰🏻
This was such an good movie
It was always my thought that Inez and Seaweed eventually had Corny as a step father, lol.
Corny very clearly had a thing for Maybelle in this movie.
song should be called "Can't Stop To Breathe."
That’s what the cast nicknamed it! It even took Queen Latifah 2 runs to get it, despite her rap background
This is a good movie but it’s sad knowing how Amanda was being treated around that time both behind the scenes and at home. She deserved better
Fun Fact: the Cast and Crew nicknamed this song "You Can't Stop to Breathe" because it went so fast that they were constantly fighting to not pass out from lack of air
I honestly like the change that Inez wins. It makes more sense to me as officially integrating the show.
7:10 You ready?
Go Queen 💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺😁🥹
I just realized that’s Tayla Parx she voiced AJ in Telltale “The Walking Dead: Final Season”
The right way to fight discrimination
I Love this movie 💝💐
7:30 lyric change:
AND IT SEES BOTH WHITE AND BLACK! *YEAH*
Yess back in day
Is that John Travolta in a dress or am I tripping?!?!!
Yes
Queen ❤❤❤!
I love zac efron
Is there going to be a hairspray two
Amber Stop It 😭😂 Lmfaooo
RIP Twitch 3:57
7:03
3:33 Literally just noticed the station boss mouthing "Deal with it!".
Ever see those videos that are villians and if they are pure evil or broken. I think Amber can be qualified as broken.
Racist granny hurting herself always cracks me up 🤷😂
This was one of John Travolta's weirdest movies
Hey it may be weird but it’s nowhere near as ungodly awful as Battlefield Earth.
I was so happy when Velma got fired 😂😂
Busted/Burn! 4:16
