I am super excited about hairspray live later this year on NBC love the casting choices so far for it with Harvey fierstein as Edna turnblad, Jennifer Hudson as motormouth maybelle, Martin short as Wilbur turnblad, and Derek hough as corny Collins can't wait to see who else they cast I can't wait for December 7th:hakuna::cheese::mufasasmile:
Glad that people still have interest in Hairspray, even though I'm not a big fan of Broadway or Musical thanks to Glee show but I'm down for another one. I saw Fame 14 years ago and I'm still impressed with the content and acting.
Hairspray is a great show, you should watch it Fendi. The movie is actually a really good adaptation of the stage show.
I think hairspray live will be way better then the movie which was good also will be the Broadway version on tvQuote:

Promo for hairspray with Ariana grande as penny, dove Cameron as Amber, Garrett Clayton as link, Kristin Chenoweth as Velma. Sean Haynes as mr pinky, Andrea Martin as prudy and Rosie o'donnell as the gym teacher. They still have yet to cart seaweed, lil Inez, mr spritzer, the matron and few other roles. https://youtu.be/CZ7K0sbmIKk
Coool :D Kristin Chenoweth as Velma is perfect. I shall keep an eye out and see if I'm able to catch this sometime C:

Yup it's the 4th live musical that NBC has done and it's being co directed by the director of grease live and it will be live from L.A's universal studiosQuote:
