Can we appreciate how this is a film with a plus-sized lead and she isn't the portrayed as dumb or ugly, and she doesn't try to lose weight throughout the movie?
It's a John waters movie.
Not for the audition, not to get the guy, not even to be like the other girls... Pretty cool! 👍
@@Neo-ln4be I agree, but to be fair all that dancing she does will probably cause her to lose some weight.
Michael Watt I apologise for my language, I’m still a kid and I’m not very good with words, I hope you understand that I didn’t mean any harm.
Michael Watt I’m glad you can forgive me, I really appreciate having a civil conversation with you, I understand how hard it is on the internet and I completely see where you are coming from. I’m sorry if I said anything too mean or out of touch on my original comment.
How are we not all talking about all of Queen Latifa’s looks bc she popped off in every scene she was in.
My friends get annoyed with me because I always talk about how AMAZING she looks the entire movie
Her song was fucking amazing, it’s one of my favorites even to this day
Tbh Queen Latifa is an icon in this movie and no one can convince me otherwise
Her part is the best part of You Can’t Stop the Beat, hands down. You couldn’t convince 10 y old me otherwise, you couldn’t convince current me otherwise. ✨✨
@@plainbagel4411 Queen had the best part of that song plus ties with Elijah Kelley (Seaweed) for the best individual song in the movie.
I still cannot get over the fact that this musical is based off of a true story, but the writers wanted to give it a happy ending, because in real life the integration was not successful and the show got cancelled.
No way
What??? Really?
Not surprised.... ☹️
@Casual Kiwi 121 what the fuck
Seriously. I never knew that. I will look at this film differently now whenever I decide to watch it
When the black girls came on for the new girl in town, *they added **_THE FLAVOR._*
@1 1 T H E F L A V O R
THE flavour
1 1 Flaaaaavaaa
I mean they did make the song
The ✨flavor✨ it’s real.
Tracy was really like “mf looked at me once, we’re getting married”
okay but that do be a mood
too real
that was me in 8th grade
Deadass omg
Lesbians be like
A lot of people say that they had a fictional crush on Link in this movie, and I'm just sitting there like, "so y'all just gonna ignore my king Seaweed like that?"
I didn’t realize at the time but I had a crush on Seaweed and Penny so just anytime they were on screen I was 😍
RIGHT!?
@@GreatBooker SAMEE
THANK YOU I LOVED SEAWEED 😂
I loved Seaweed and Corny ❤
I still get INTENSE second hand embarrassment from the "i'm a bad girl and i need to be punished" scene
Lmao same, this was one of my favorite movies for awhile and I’ve seen it a bunch, but I still can’t watch that scene, I have to skip it or go out of the room
I literally curl up in a ball and fall off the sofa
Me too
I LITERALLY CANNOT WATCH THAT I SKIP IT EVERY TIME I WATCH IT BECAUSE I CAN'T EVEN
SAME and when she hits the cop with the sign like girl NO
"no wonder they kept separated, they don't want them to be upstaged" the tea
100,000,000,000% True, you oppress who you fear is greater than you
thats kinda realistic though...they realized wow we can't hang with the soul people
At the time African American musicians were doing some pretty revolutionary things, and white people were scared as usual
@@gayvalds PERIOD. like mfs still do this now. also like no hate to most tiktokers but manyy tiktokers have stolen dances from many EXCELLENT AND TALENTED black creators. and don’t give them any credit until they’re held accountable. and when they are held accountable, they get scared and delete it or end up tagging them like they should have did in the first place.
@@gayvalds and i know i’m being extra but when i was younger and use to do theatre this kinda of happened to me. like i can pretty much say i was the only black girl in the room and i was pretty much WAYY BETTER than everyone else. and one time i auditioned for ariel in the little mermaid and as a 8 year old i was fucking fabulous. but ofc i didn’t get the part. i also could tell that most of the white girls were threatened by me. others were very supportive after my audition. they gave it to the white girl ofc and no hate to her she was great but i was sooo much better. i ended up not being in the play 😭🖐🏾
hairspray is the gayest and straightest movie ever- how tf do u manage that
Cause it’s musical which gays tend to love with straight people straighting
That's one way to put it. 😂
momma mia got all this praise but hairspray was way better
Watch JJBA
Cause it's the 60's baby😗💅
Finally somebody recognizes the real heartthrobs of this movie we’re Seaweed and Corny 🥺
I was in loveeee
DEFINITELY!! I couldn’t care less for the spineless Link
@@MarieJes23 in all fairness, the original Link did fight for the cause with Tracy. I'm not sure why it was changed in the musical version
I still have the biggest crush on Seaweed.. Not gonna lie 😂
seaweed is my favoritee 😩
Ash doesn’t get paid enough to always look this good for us
I remember that when I clicked a video of hers for the first time I thought : "omg, she's sooo pretty"
That is true aaaaaaaaand that’d pretty true
I wish I could be her best friend
I know when I first saw her coralline video I was like 😏 wassup
What’s the funny part is the fact that all the black kids are in detention, honestly is still a prevalent problem today in America’s education system. i.e. the school to prison pipeline.
It’s so disgusting
Really is, I had a teacher who kept trying to send me to detention for wearing my hair in a turban/scarf 💀 she didn't even know what it was called, she'd just say "that thing", so I tied it in a bow and she still sent me to the principle who just looked at me like "👁👄👁 what's the problem?? It's just fabric??"
Seriously. I went to detention quite a bit and there was one school where I was always the only white person. ://
Yeah, my school was functionally segregated. And, that school was across town. The schools I were zoned for were literally the worst in the county. It's a real problem and nobody really talks about it.
Idk when i lived in jersy it was the blacks and puertoricans normally acting out. Moved down south and they were as sweet as can be and it was more mexicans and whites acting out.
FINALLY SOMEONE GIVING CORNY THE ATTENTION HE DESERVES!!!
Why Corny is the best:
1. he's for integration (and he's the host of the show, so that says a lot. he would rather be integrated than have high ratings, what a king)
2. he's so kind and understanding with the cast, and even to Ms Maybelle (love queen latifah
6. That run at the end of its hairspray 😍
7 AND HE WAS ON THE NOTEBOOK. Who should've got the girl cause he's literally perfect 😤💅🏼.
Listen to his first song, the way his says “nice white kids” you can just hear the pain in his voice when he says that
I love all of your replies and I am so happy you guys love him as much as I do
Those as re some low standards. Being for integration is not award worthy.
“This school is racist!!”.
“It was the 1960s what did you expect...”.
I thought it was different schools not different classes
Reyof ; after they passed a national law sometime in the 60’s they weren’t allowed to stop black kids from going to “white schools” but they could still separate them in classes as a loophole.
Literally Rei that’s interesting I never knew that.
@@thisisavivistanaccount7866 they technically couldn't. They would hand out detention papers like candy to black students to get them out of class. Speaking up about it got them more detention or even suspension for repeated infractions.
Call me Your Dai5y that’s why I said it was a loophole. They can’t “technically” but they found a way around it. You’re also correct about the “discipline” part though
The fact that you didn’t include the scene of Tracy just singing on the floor after getting hit by the dodgeball- PLS IT WAS SO FUNNY LIKE GIRL GET TF UP✋😭
ASHSJSKDK 😹 I cant breathe-
~This ✨HEAVY✨weight champion gets the prize~
Never once. Has it crossed my mind. That Tracey’s mom. Was played by a man.
edna turnblad has always been played by a man since the first movie came to the live version of the film
same my parents watched it with me once and they kept calling her John and I was like ??????
Megan Reardon it’s a tradition to have Mrs.Turnblad be pkayef by a man, more especially by a drag queen
He's also the guy in grease
i was one of those dumb kids who tried to look smart. so i would always be like "omg John Travolta is so amazing in Hairspray", meanwhile i didn't even know which character he played or what man's even looked like 🤦🏽♀️
it is only today... at 23 years old..... that i find out John Travolta played Tracey's mom. 😐
and i am absolutely shooketh.
seeing Amanda Bynes in old movies like this is kind of sad
I know, I loved her. Hope she is doing well.
What happened?
huh what happened to her?
She looks damn good in this movie too
For those that don't know, she has had mental health and substance abuse issues and has taken a permanent break from acting. There are also other issues with her parents taking conservatorship over her but I don't know too much about that.
I remember being like 10 and hearing Zac Efron say "Kiss my ass" was like... the biggest scandal to me!
SAME LMFAO
Me too! 😆
overall, stan Corny Collins
period
literally
In 2007, we wanted James Marsden. In 2020, we got James Cordon. As a giant cat. 😖
He's my man
The way Ashley recounts the whole script without realising
i’m honestly surprised how much of it is still in my brain
His name is probably Cornelius and just nobody talks about it.
Oh god
Ooof
i feel called out cuz i have a character named cornelius - with nickname corny :||||
thats my dads name noooooooo ewwww
How many times is this guy gonna lose?
In Link's defence, he's an insecure teenager who learns to be better by the end while Corny's a grown man who knows where he stands. Also Amber at the end almost not becoming a product of her mother because she kinda actually wants to dance and have a good time.
Also also, I especially like the change from the original where Tracy won the pageant to Inez winning it and by the will of the people bringing about integration.
Exactly! Thank you.
It was legit the reason why I watched this hairspray lol. I read the wiki for both movies and the musical and I decided to watch this one because I liked how in the end, Inez was the one that won.
I this is the only version of the musical I’ve seen so I just assumed that Inez won in every iteration.
I’m glad that this was my introduction, Inez winning is just more satisfying and does a better job of driving home the musical’s theme of accepting and celebrating people for their differences
@@teddy-1965 It really does and it's such a beautiful moment as well.
I agree; I think he deserves some slack and apart from him being played by Zac Efron, I never saw a problem with him. He did fall in love with Tracy, after all.
penny was literally soo cute and deserved more scenes😭
couldn’t agree more
Penny was so fine bruh and seaweed a whole inspiration to me😁
shakur vdm she was my gay awakening
I love how queen latifa just has this “y’all really making me say this shit” look 😂

your 'Us after quarantine' when Edna said "there's so much air out here" i was cryingggg
i read the "Us" you wrote as U's as in, multiple letter U and i was so confused
It SENT ME

That moment was fucking gold! 🤣👏
"No wonder they wanted to be kept them separate, they didn't wanna be out-staged."

Corny was LITERALLY the best character and nobody could change my mind.
He kinda made it all happened , he let her in , he let it all happen

Also he’s played by James Marsden. James Marsden is always a win. Always

Me, a black girl seeing u get shook abt racism and how black kids go to detention in the 60s when it’s still happening 🙃 no roast or shade but gurl
To be fair she’s never been to detention in her life 😂 me on the other hand 👀 I went every year for being late all the time 😂
😂😂😂😂 when is it happening now?
@@jakedelphin1792 literally in my high school the teachers would send the black kids to detention for forgetting their homework or being late, but the white kids who screamed profanities got nothing.
Thanks Send me invite on hangout my email is tdj5183@gmail.com
@@JaneDoeValentine my school was the same with muslim students. one teacher got in trouble bc she literally gave a muslin boy detention everyday for ‘cheek’ or ‘interrupting class’ but he would literally just yawn quietly or ask someone for a pencil🙄
Omg, same!! I use to watch this movie *religiously* as a child and it meant even more to me as a black person myself--I love how Penny didn't fall for Seaweed because he was black but because she simply was attracted to him as a person and how when they visited the black neighborhood, they were willing to learn about and appreciate the culture instead of just stealing and using it to their advantage(like Elvis Presley did for example) and Tracey even marched with them! I can go on and on but gosh, what a great movie it is *P.S. John Travolta definitely wasn't paid enough for his performance in this movie.* I remember my mom having a problem with the fact that he was in drag but I never cared 😂
Did you watch the movie? She did fall for him because he was black. It was rebellious for her as an innocent white girl with a racist mom, to date the handsome black man who had rythm and was cool. She literally says in "without love" that she's tasted chocolate that she's never going back. If that's not fetishism I don't know what is.
Aliyah J. True, but Penny was always down with the shits, which is more than these other snowbunnies can say.
@@AJ-cq5pw Clearly they did, so what the hell is your problem? Let them interpret however they want.
Corny Collins is the most woke human being to ever exist. and that's just a fact.
PERIOD!!!
@Liza Johnson woke has been a slang word used since the 60s. Laugh or don't comment.
Might I add, this movie is literally set in the 60s. Unfortunately racism and segregation wasn't considered normal back. Don't hate on a fun movie musical.
@Liza Johnson fine. comment whatever you want, I really could care less. ✌
@Liza Johnson You know good and well this is the 1960s. He was damn woke at the time. You know what they meant.
True!!
me, a mixed black girl, who has never seen this movie: “negro day” 👁👄👁
u never seen this??? drop everything and watch it
Watch the 1988 version its way better and way more iconic
@@yourmomsspaghetti5990 Omg yes, 1988 version is SUPERIOR. And more accurate to 60's values. They had more direct and strong racism, but it brings a more realistic view.
I think the main reason I watched this version over the other version was because in this version, inez won, rather than Tracy.
@@_helvetixa what is that? I never got that reference.
THE CHRIS BROWN COMMENT I GASPED. i choked on my water. ASHLEY THE FACTS U SPAT RIGHT IN MY FACE...u did THAT
HAHAH ME TOO
i love that james marsden finished filming the xmen movies and immediately started acting in campy musical movies. like just off the top of my head in 2007 was this and enchanted. king. he has the range
Does him drunkenly singing Benny and the Jets in 27 Dresses also count? Cause 😍
he was the moment, now c'mon now
james marsden is forever iconic
“This is what Chris Brown thinks he’s doing” *I’m spiraling and I’ll never come down*
Ok but Ashley knowing basically every word is a big ass mood
~ EDIT: HEY GUYS!!! GREAT NEWS! I was able to edit out the offensive part of the video while still keeping it up for you guys to enjoy! YAY! Mayhaps youtube actually did something right after all. Anyway I am going to keep this part of my comment up as many of you still saw it and I still stand by the explanation I gave. It would be easy to just delete it all and pretend it never happened, but that's not taking accountability and I want it to be clear that I am not perfect nor know everything, BUT I am more than willing to learn and am open to conversations. I am still EMBARRASSED beyond explanation but I really appreciate you guys letting me fix the mistake and moving on. Thanks again, I love you A TON, and here's to more open communication in the future.
Didn't catch that either but it's an interesting point! I thought since it's in the script/song then it might be ok just in that context but I see how that could still be super offensive...
that was me too! but hey we all have room to grow and learn, i’m just happy y’all give me the chance to do it 💓

@@valeriecharlotte1257 omg i like that
This movie is just too iconic to exist. Michelle Pfeiffer, Queen Latifah, and John Travolta and just gave the star power this movie deserved (and Christopher Walken). Plus everyone else in the cast gave such good performances
Im a black girl in my school we performed hairspray (it took a whole year to finally perform and I hated it all) and all the white cast who played the nicest kids had to scream "negro day' and there were only a handful of black kids doing the show and we all cringed everytime. Everyone just said it with so much enthusiasm and excitement,I know it was part of the performance but no one was showing any side of discomfort even my teacher shouted it everytime but hey... it is what ot is.
I remember in spanish class all the white kids being uncomfortable to say the word "negro" because they thought ut was pronounced the typical american way..and thought it was the same word. It also baffles me that the term colored is considered rude yet people of color isnt..to me they are the same its still separating us from white people based on the color our skin is supposed to be(because there are non white minorites that are just as pale as white people or paler) adding "people of" in front of it doesnt really soften the blow.
Okay same! We finally had enough black kids to do it and it turned out great but there was a lot of discomfort that we had to get through because the high school had a rough streak of racism. Also, it was always the white kids who were begging to do the show every year knowing damn well that it’s not a simple thing to do. Like, the disconnect was astronomical. I played one of the Dynamites and had a blast, but it took a lot for us to get through the rehearsal process and the show.
That really sucks although I’m sure at least someone was cringing on the inside😕I’m glad it’s uncomfortable when we’re reading reallyyy racist shit out loud in my English class( because who cares if famous writers say it it’s ✨literature✨) also no one actually says anything either, it’s just an awkward pause and then continuing on
Thing is thats because its a film based in 1960's and thats what it was like back then. Atleast there showing how much the blacks was mistreated back then insted of sugarcoating it.
@@mynameisnonofyourconcern8685 my English classes didn't care 😭 I had a white teacher give a whole class about why "everyone should be allowed to say the n word 🥺" and all the racist kids were excited af to read those parts

I was in shock when I first watched the movie and I found out that John Travolta portrayed Edna Turnblad, I almost had a heart attack.
I can't believe you had a crush on Zac Efron when James Marsden was right there! I guess I was a weird kid, lusting after a grown man lmao.
I had forgotten he was in this and recently started watching Westworld and its so sad to see him be such a good character here and compare that to his character in the first few episodes of Westworld. Hopefully it gets better for him on that show 😅

As a Baltimore boy whose parents worked on the original film and still know John Waters well this movie perfectly honored the original and the musical. Up to including John himself as the Flasher AND Jerry Stiller the original Wilbur as Mr. Pinky

I think Ash has a type to hate in every show and movie : good looking white boys LMAOOOOOO
SNSJSNSKS idk why i have to have someone to hate on when i watch someone
They always so badly written tho like "it's fine he's cute they won't pay attention to him being an ass" only oops we woke up
Honestly this is one of the best movies I've ever seen. The casting, the plus-sized lead, the accurate portrayals of the issues in that time, the music, John Travolta as a woman staying true to the original musical, CORNY F***ING COLLINS BEING A KINGGGGG? All absolute perfection. Everything is so perfectly portrayed and I feel it all works together so well. I rewatch this movie whenever possible because it's just a work of art 🤩
my good sis is talking about how her highschool was wild, like sis don't even get me started on my MIDDLE SCHOOL with a bunch of 11 and 12 year olds 💅💅
Big mood my middle school was insane
Honestly, we all had big crackhead energy
@@AikiraBeats agree
My middle school was basically Jersey Shore but with more discrimination
Same everyone in my middle school is just out a control those mf's tried to burn down the school just so they could get a long break but thankfully Coronavirus took care of that for us
yess get your coins, you deserve it
p.s I think you would really like the half of it on netflix
Irrelevant-_-monae !!!
I just finished watching it a few minutes ago
YESSSS
UNDERRATED MOVIE RELEASE ITS SO GOID
leslie feelsagain IT RLLY IS THOOOO 😔
The girl in the blue dress absolutely reading zac efron to filth with just a look sends me 😭💀🤣
Okay so zac didn’t sing in the first HSM cuz none of the songs were written in his key. So they got drew seeley to do it 🙄
And I’m mad that they didn’t just cast Drew Seeley. Or at least transpose the keys to fit Zach.
Allanah Davis lmaooooo but was he really? I didn’t know that. I just knew he played Troy in broadway
@@nadsyay that's not a disney movie
Kids spread rumours for years that I was a lesbian when I was in high school so everyone stopped talking to me- little did they know I was actually pansexual and gender fluid. Aspirations, kids, be more than they think you are 😂😂
The energy from this is Excellent
YOU 👏ARE 👏ICONIC👏
When I was in high school two kids were doing it in the bathroom and someone recorded some of it on vine. That video spread like wild fire and by lunchtime everyone knew. The couple were sitting in the cafeteria, everyone started staring and the principal called them to the office. The two of theme were suspended and the guy who recorded the act was arrested for child pornography. Those restrooms were closed for the rest of the year.
I was today's years old when I realised that John Travolta played Tracy's mother
bro same like what
Ikr I was so surprised!
quick suggestions:
-cyberbully
-Trapped: The Alex Cooper Story
-Handmaid's Tale (as a series)
- Miracle Season
-Carrie
yes handmaid's tale definitely!
please request these on @/requestsforash on twitter, luv
handmaids tale is a MUST !!
@Breyah B. and @adropintheocean , exactly !¡ Handmaids Tale is such a given
she would love it
seaweed's vOCALS IN EVERYTHING OH MY GOD
they filmed the school scenes a my school in Toronto, and my tween self got to meet Zac Efron and take a picture with him
Luckyyyyy!
OmGGGGGGGG. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
But did you meet Travolta?🥺 How was he?
I cackled when you said "This is what Chris Brown THINKS he's doing."
i’m literally the same as ash but 10 years younger lmfao i’m 14. I used to watch hairspray every single day oml I was OBSESSED
High key it’s more like Queen Latifah and Michelle Pfeiffer carried the movie
Don't forget James
For me, it was Queen, Michelle, John, and James. For the kids, it was absolutely Elijah Kelley. I gasped and cried watching him onscreen. I felt like I was watching Sammy Davis Jr for the first time.
I love them all I think they all carried the movie but since John played a housewife in 2007 literally embodied being a woman for this role during a time which men would only dress up as woman in movies as a comedic plot so he definitely deserves the praise. Queen Latifah and Michelle are just always amazing to watch and they thoroughly played their characters and brought originality to the roles as well. James as corny was like superb. Personally all the characters really were amazing and each person brought something unique to the role 🙌🏼❤️
The way ash remembers the entire dialogue is the energy i need in life .
elijah kelley is such an underrated singer and for me, he carried hairspray
I can't believe corny Colin literally invented tiktok 💀
🤣🤣🤣
i had the BIGGEST crush on seaweed growing up- he was just so smooth and cool
Amanda & Latifahs characters were deadass my sexual awakening’s and i don’t know why
agreed 100000000%
Bc they’re fine as hell. In retrospect my love of the Amanda show…well it makes sense
the reason they got drew seeley to sing in the first hsm was coz they didn’t think zacs voice was high enough
they can both sing but there are some notes that drew can hit that zac cant
Black Ninja i didn’t say it was his fault, i was j saying that they thought his voice didn’t fit yes zacs an amazing singer
"tracy is y/n" im- that's the most accurate thing i've ever heard
Allison Janey is glorious in everything. Also I love that you know every word to this :’)
Nah I feel like Brittany Snow is a sweetheart she shows her different side in Pitch Perfect so she wouldn’t say the N word, I love her so much, I would go straight for her and Anna Kendrick
Bechloe is the one reason I am hoping for at least one last Pitch Perfect movie
I DIDNT EVEN KNOW IT WAS HER WE LOVE CHLOE
hairspray should really be renamed "white saviour the musical" huh
The original John Waters movie actually parodys this concept. Worth a watch
I don’t think it applies for this movie tbh. If Maybelle was maybe begging Corny or Tracy for someone to save Negro day because they felt ‘defenseless’ or something, and they stepped in like a superhero then sure. But when Maybelle saw that Tracy wanted to march with everyone she basically said ‘i get ur enthusiasm but this isn’t your battle, sweetie. this is black folks’ business’ and instead educated Tracy through ‘I know where I’ve been’ while leading the march. And then Inez earned the crown in the end through her talent getting interest from the audience and not a pity handout.
@@NovaKnight_ hey that's a totally fair interpretation. Maybe there's more nuance between white saviourism and white people overstepping that I hadn't considered. Thanks for pointing that out to me :)
Frankie Horvath No problem! The easiest way to point out the white saviour trope is when there’s a victimized oppressed group/person who either calls on a white person to save the day, or has the white person save the group/person like an abandoned kitten in order to feel woke and act as a ‘saviour’ to enrich the oppressed person’s life. A white person wanting to be involved with a cause doesn’t automatically lead to the white saviour trope if written correctly. 👍🏽
@@NovaKnight_ Thank you for the emotional labour it took to educate me :)
Zac Effron didnt sing in HSM 1 because he hit puberty and his voice was cracking. He sang in 2,3, Hairspray, and Greatest Showman though
Plus a lot of the songs in the first HSM weren't written with Zac's singing voice in mind (his voice is deeper I think) and that's why when they the songs were done live they used Drew Seeley.
FINALLY SOME CORNY APPRECIATION!! Link wishes he was as progressive
