I love how the dance style of inez is very hand centric you often think of feet when dancing but she incorporates her hands here as the main focus and throughout the movie like they are her wings
I really wish people realize some people are not in it to be famous famous. Some people were actually in it, because they had the passion for it he might have the passion, for he might not want to be famous, because being famous is not all as crushed up to be, I mean, if you think about it because if you come famous, guess what your privacy is taken away that make up rumors about you then you make one fucked up mistake then you’re the worst motherfucker in the world that’s how they act with a lot of celebrities, so yes, how many Asher don’t want to be famous I’ve heard some actress say that so people don’t seem to consider that act like him might not want to actually be famous he might be content to that just saying
I alwaysI thought he was going to be THE massive breakout star from Hairspray. I hope he's just retired from acting and isn't just struggling to get roles because he is so crazy talented!
Man can we just give Amanda Bynes her flowers though. Her acting was top tier and ahead of our time!!! Praying she makes her way back to our lord and savior and back in front of us with her talent!!!
I was so obsessed with this song! And had such a crush on him lol. But omg at 2:31 the way Elijah Kelly jumps so high is crazy?? He literally jumps over the other actors heads practically! In addition to dancing amazingly.
“I couldn’t lie but baby, lets be bold vanilla can be nice but truth be told the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice” such a powerful underrated line in the song. It highlights the fact that black people weren’t trying to put white people down like they were doing to black people, they just wanted to be included and understood.
Couldn't help noticing that the white kids--who were invited guests in the Black kids' territory--automatically headed for the back of that school bus.
The version that gets me is the TV perfection with a Hispanic playing penny.. it throws off the whole segregation vib cause penny's parents being racist

this movie was and is my favorite childhood memory. taught me early on to accept people for who they are and not to see colors. i'm basically color blind in a way. i don't see black or white as a difference. we're all humans.
If you seen this and you like Elijah kelly...go and educate b yourself on "The New Edition" story. He played Ricky of NEW edition. A 80s r&b group. Rhey ate the reason Bobby Brown is even relevant. He (Boddy Brown) was famous before Whitney.
What about this song reminds you of that? The Bandar-log stole Mowgli to make him their king in Kipling's original story, and King Louie in the Disney film wanted Mowgli to teach him to make fire so that he could be equal to humans. NEITHER of those things is really equivalent to what's going on here. So what are you REALLY saying?
If Tracy Turnblad was a white slender/lithe male or even a slim white girl, would she be accused of having White Savior Complex? Genuinely just a curious question.
I don't think so. Tracy's appearance isn't really important when it comes to the solidarity she shows her Black friends. Hairspray doesn't make this a story about how Tracy sets out to destroy segregation but instead focuses on her as a young girl who just wants to be on a popular TV show alongside her crush. In the process of her attaining this goal, she befriends amazing people who happen to be Black and she doesn't understand why they can't dance together. Tracy at no point overtakes their de-segregation movement or makes their struggles about herself. She provides support while respecting them as equals. She allows them to sing their blues, listening without interrupting or projecting and then not only advocates for them but stands next to them throughout it all. So, essentially whether Tracy is big or small, she was written to represent a genuine ally to a cause that is far-reaching and "bigger" than her. And she does what she can to help her friends, who again, happen to be Black. And as a Black person, that's all that we want - to level the playing field so we can also have equal opportunities. Which is what Tracy also wants for her friends. I hope that this (LONG...sorry!) reply answers your question.
In the stage version, it genuinely feels like she’s the white savior complex, and even the plot supports that (in the original stage version, Velma was “punished” by being put in charge of the make-up department for black people, and instead of Little Inez, it was Tracy who won. Also, it was Tracy who announced the show is integrated, not Corny, the owner and host of the show) This film removes the white savior complexes part. Velma was simply fired. Little Inez winning made a lot more sense, as being the first black person to win Miss Hairspray opened the door for Corny to announce the show to be integrated. And Tracy is a lot more passive in the narrative, despite being the main character. So yeah, the stage version is a bit white savior-ish, while the film made a few changes to make it better
While it certainly could go that way, it’s not a foregone conclusion. The key thing to nail is agency: is she the one calling all the shots, or is she just standing in solidarity?

Elijah Kelley did not come to play!!! Bro ATE this performance up!!
Oh My. Glad I found this video because I consider this song one of Elijah Kelley's best songs
You're right!
Hes amazing as scarecrow in the Wiz live and I love every song he sings in strange magic as well
@@gemimanaylor I was just gonna mention his You Can’t Win from the wiz is one of my faves of his
@@dt8988 definitely. I prefer his version of you can't win better that the original where Michael Jackson sang it
It's great to have a high quality version of this number
i love lil inez voice 🥰🥰 sound straight out of the 60s!! 3:02
I love how the dance style of inez is very hand centric you often think of feet when dancing but she incorporates her hands here as the main focus and throughout the movie like they are her wings
That is such a beautiful way to think of it I couldn’t agree more!
This clip just proves that Elijah Kelley should be WAY more famous than he is. HE'S SO TALENTED 😍

I alwaysI thought he was going to be THE massive breakout star from Hairspray. I hope he's just retired from acting and isn't just struggling to get roles because he is so crazy talented!
IM SO GLAD there’s people who remember this masterpiece
the voice the moves HELL YAH??
This has got to be my favorite song in the whole show. Go Seaweed! 🎭❤
Damn I forgot how much I looooooved this movie. Omg. The chills. The nostalgia
This must be my favorite musical number of all time!
I forgot how much I loved this musical and movie.
Man can we just give Amanda Bynes her flowers though. Her acting was top tier and ahead of our time!!! Praying she makes her way back to our lord and savior and back in front of us with her talent!!!
For sure!!! I miss her too 🩷😇🙏✨

Looks like it could’ve been a stunt double. But either way so impressive
It wasn't @techpolitics he's from my hometown and he was an athlete (he's from Lagrange, Ga)
Then he landed on the splits and bounced back up.

penny and seaweed had such ooozing chemistry elijah and amanda did great in this !! i just wish elijah had his breakout from this movie
God-dayum, Seaweed was fiyne!!!!!
At that time there was segregated times but they figured it out and became great friends and close to each other❤
I love this movie and the actors and the song like dang this is just fire current movies don't know nun bout this kinna stuff🔥💯💐
I ❤ how Penny faints when she sees seaweed that's love❤
This version is the best I have seen so far.
Yeah, I love this musical remake of Hairspray. The original one is fine too, but doesn’t wow or impress me that much. But that’s just me.
The version that gets me is the TV perfection with a Hispanic playing penny.. it throws off the whole segregation vib cause penny's parents being racist
This song is easily top 3 of the entire musical
Seaweed is so cute

Lyrics
[SEAWEED]
Hey
I can't see why people look at me
And only see the color of my face, oh yeah
And then there's those that try to help, God knows
But always have to put me in my place
But I won't ask you to be color blind
'Cause if you pick the fruit, then girl, you're sure to find
The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use?
The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste
And that's where it's at
Now baby, run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Oh sugar, run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Nasaan 'GOATED' Official Lyrics & Meaning | Genius Verified
Hey, yeah
I can't see why people disagree
Each time I tell them what I know is true, no, no
And if you come and see the world I'm from
I bet your heart is gonna feel it too, yeah
But I could lie but baby, let's be bold
Vanilla can be nice, but if the truth be told
The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use?
The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste
And that's where it's at
Oh, baby, baby, run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Oh sugar, go run and tell that (Run and tell that)
G-g-go on and run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Hey, yeah-yeah, run and tell, go tell (Run and tell that)
Keep moving, baby, run and tell that
Hey, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Hey, woo, ooh-ooh

Oh, the people 'round here can barely pay their rent
They're tryin' to make dollar out o' fifteen cent
But we got a spirit money just can't buy
It's deep as a river, it soars to the sky, to the sky
[SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE]
Hey, I can't see the reason it can't be
The kinda world that where we all get our chance, aw yeah
The time is now, so we can show 'em how
Just turn the music up and let's all dance, yeah
'Cause all things are equal when it comes to love
Well, that ain't quite true 'cause when a push comes to shove
The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice (Uh-huh)
I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use?
The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste
And that's where it's at
Now baby, baby, baby, run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Run and tell that (Run and tell that)
Aw baby, go run and tell that (Run and tell that)
G-g-g-g-go on girl, and run and tell that
That, yeah
