Love this already. Idk if someone already said it but the Flasher in “Good morning Baltimore” is played by John Waters who wrote the original 1988 film stating the incredible drag queen Divine and Ricki Lake (who actually makes a cameo as one of the talent agents that comes to miss hairspray competition). The tradition of hairspray (as said by the director of this version) is that Edna is always played by a man in homage to Divine, and Tracy is always played by plus sized girl (as opposed to casting a smaller girl and padding her, which apparently was considered for a second before the director vetoed the idea)

I watched hairspray for the first time earlier this year; i knew of You Can't Stop the Beat, but going in, I had no idea what the story was. My only recollection was that Travolta was the mom who hadn't left the house in many years. So, needless to say, I was shocked by the story being heavily focused on racism. Anyways, when it got to I Know Where I've Been, I had a feeling it was familiar, but I couldnt place it. It wasn't until near the end with her long note and when the chorus comes in that it clicked. It was on Glee with Unique, Beiste, and the trans people. That was a great performance.

So, the original Hairspray was a John Waters film in the 80's that became a bit of a cult classic. Then, in the early 2000's they created a Broadway musical adaption that got really popular and won a bunch of awards, and so they made THIS movie version of the stage musical in 2007. ABC also did one of their "filmed live for tv" versions in like 2015? 2016? Ariana Grande played Penny (Amanda Bynes's character) and was actually able to sing it the way its written, without all the cuts this version did. Lol. (Just a little bit of shade to Amanda Bynes. Still love her though.)

The flasher in the intro is John Waters. He put together the 1988 Hairspray movie. Don't watch the original with expectations of being the same. Same plot beats, but very different vibe. John Waters is known for his cult classics. They're known for being off beat and even offensive at times. He is known for always pushing the envelope to put it mildly. So for him to cameo as a flasher in a fairly family-friendly movie is very appropriate

I'd never expect to see a musical on this channel but I'm here for it. 🤣 As a hardcore musical fan, I must say that movie musicals since have never come to close to this greatness. 😊 But a lot of been inspired by this film.

33:58 I just realized it's Michelle Pfeiffer and Christopher Walken together in this scene, Catwoman and Max Shreck. And that trick gun is very funny.

If you think those costumes are to die for you should see "CHICAGO" 😂

Okay but why was Greg being so charmed by Aaron’s idea of making this into a drinking game so charming? If this reaction was an anime, there would be heart eyes, sparkles AND blush spots for drinking games.

Honestly love how much you guys didn't have any idea what the movie was about but somehow had the best combination for it.

Honestly still one of my favorite movies. I saw it in theaters (already knew about the original movie but had never seen the musical). And I fell in love with it. It kickstarted my love for vintage 50s and 60s clothing too. Had a huge crush on Zac Efron after this too. I annoyed my whole family by playing and singing along to this soundtrack CD after I was supposed to have been in bed. This movie is pure nostalgia for me and honestly it never gets old for me.

Watching this months later, but this and the musical is based on John Waters’ 1988 Hairspray movie (non-musical). Adam Shankman, the director and choreographer, was also on So You Think You Can Dance! And I keep forgetting he directed The Wedding Planner and A Walk to Remember.

I love this musical so much, it's one of my comfort cast recordings and soundtracks! You lot really didn't have any clue what it was about was actually the best thing 😂 *edit* To answer your question about Edna yes she has always been played in drag! ❤ the original film had the legendary drag queen Divine play her, then Harvey Fierstein originated her on Broadway (Michael Ball originated after on the West End) and like you see John Travolta played her in the film version of the musical ❤

John Travolta was doing a baltimore accent. I'm not sure why he was the only one who did it but it's honestly not awful. I'm not sure if the line 'I left my iron on' is in the original play or if they threw it in there because iron is so specific in the baltimore accent. it's like 'coffee' for new york or 'park my car' for boston

You should really watch Chicago next! It has queen latifah singing, and also it's got that sort of framing device you mentioned where all the musical numbers are framed by one character's perception of events! Roxie is so obsessed with showbusiness that it's her way of percieving the world.

I love this musical alot and fun fact about me I performed this musical during Middle school and it was a lot of fun, the choreograph was a ton of fun to learn and the songs were so catchy, I wished I had a lead but I was one of the Corney Collins kid dancers and Mr. Pinky. I dont really remember the dances anymore but it was blast.

Not sure if anyone mentioned it…but fun cameo in Good Morning Baltimore. The flasher guy in the trench coat is John Waters. The director/writer of the original Hairspray from the 80s with Ricki Lake.

One of the guys who helped set up the suit John Travolta wore in the movie actually came to my high school for a career day thing we were doing, told us about how Travolta was a little anxious to wear the suit.

You should watch Matilda the Musical next. It's so good and an excellent adaptation of the stage musical (nothing to do with the 90s film aside from shared source material). The musical has been running in the West End for over 10 years Or Chicago for more Queen Latifah
