@ Dashy Awesome i agree that he was my favorite in this song but now that’s just not true. Kristen chenowith was the first glinda in wicked!! and ariana was in the musical 13 i’m pretty sure before she started acting.
@@goldranger5182 Gayness has nothing to do with anything.For Example Jonathan Groff and Lea chemistry is amazing Colton and Holden chemistry in Teen Wolf was also amazing.Ben Platt and Lucy from politicians amazing. I los all Neil Patrick Harrison female opposites their chemistry is amazing.
I’ve seen this version, the movie version, and a live play and in all of them seaweed and penny always have more chemistry in my option I don’t know why
Doves not even in the video and people are still talking about her.. maybe talk about the people who are actually in the video and not the person who’s been talked about over and over again?!
Curwhibble absolutely the actors are not on sync if you know what I mean and they change the story a bit the half of the story should be black people and racism. But in the musical they made it all about Tracy and couplesss etccc and Inez didn’t won
I didn’t think I’d ever prefer AB over someone else, vocally l, but I agree! On Broadway. Penny was a surprise power-house singer, as made apparent in this song, and I was expecting Ariana to nail it! Unfortunately.... she very much did not. 😐 Amanda’s overall characterization was so much better, and I even prefer the way she sung it. This is so bizarrely passionless; HOW?
the lack of chemistry, acting, and emotion in the video is so bewildering. like no one has any chemistry and the acting is so stale. but the singing is so uneventful. none of them sing with their emotions and prioritized a “pop” sound than an actual emotion. this is so hard to watch . . .
there’s some good bootlegs of the obc cast on broadway and many other casts who have way better chemistry. I love this musical and this is my favorite song but was very disappointed watching this.. go check out the others bc they are much better.
Do you have perfect pitch? I suspect that most viewers will not notice the difference. Also, films intended for the cinema are recorded at 24fps, but most televisions broadcast at 25fps, thus rendering the music sharp. You would need a keen ear to notice this.
@@brianaustin5467 does fps actually affect the audio? Fps only has to do with the video itself, no? I don't have perfect pitch myself, but I went back and listened and can confirm they took up the key for Penny and Seaweed's part. It's bit harder to notice with all the spoken lines in between.
@@keiko4043 Yes, it has to. The sound track is synced with the video. There are some high end TVs which can compensate digitally but a keen ear could possibly detect the digital atifacts, it's like a sort of watered down autotune.
That's the original ending of the musical, though 🤷. I do like Velma getting fired instead of promoted, but it really is the original ending, including inviting Amber and Velma to join the party.
@@FlyGirlErian much better is a stretch. i usually never prefer movie musicals, but i saw the hairspray tour last week, and while it was PHENOMENAL, there are certain changes in the movie that i think are much better than the musical. especially inez winning miss teenage hairspray. and i don’t like that amber and mrs. von tussel get redeemed at the end of the live show. they don’t deserve it lmfao.
@@princezzpuffypants6287 actually I think she's more worried that he wasn't eating aka not really caring about his health because Tracey was gone. And he thought "not singing" was worse than not being able to eat.
The thing is I didn’t hate this live. There were some good moments in this show. Mostly of the singing I enjoyed. Overall I think this was the second best live. Grease live was definitely the best I think. I enjoyed Ariana, Dove, of Course Kristen, and the Seaweed
GIRL HUH? she doesn’t blackfish ... but ok , it’s all about angles and lighting honey . same for me i look darker sometimes or lighter due to stuff. so as you... so shut up lol...
Maëlle I think Broadway was really where she had to hone her technique, because singing shows 5 to 6 days a week, not even including rehearsals, can take a huge toll on anyone’s voice so Broadway was where she really had to hone her skills and learn proper technique. However I still appreciate her pop and rnb vocals. To me I feel like her voice sounds best singing rnb.
this reminds me of a kids show, kinda boring but somewhat entertaining.. i know nothing about broadway or theatre, but even i can see the lack of chemistry in this video. the talent is there, but i literally just came for Ariana and Garrett
what always warms me up ❤️❤️is the fact that not only are there is another mixed couple in the background but there are also unbothered white couples enjoying the dance of love just the same. 🤷🏽♀️
Ariana Grande doesn’t really fit this role. Not because of her appearance, but because of her voice, she is a talented singer, but she sings much more “pop-py”, than the character is supposed to be, from the movies, and the stage show. She could be talented, in a show with a more modern style of music. With Dove Cameron, her character just felt flat. She was good in the light in the piazza, but I feel maybe she would have been better at penny.
you should hear Ariana's wizard and I broadway live performance from 2018!! She was trained for broadway and actually did broadway when she was 15! This might have just been an off performance or a special occasion because she actually can sing quite well and her voice isn't too pop - y. It can be, but she actually has some of the best technique of any singer nowadays! I've been studying vocal technique since I was 11 and she has always been someone I admired for proper vocal technique. :)
Lol everyone seems to hate this, am I the only one who enjoyed this show? 😂 yes there are problems and it’s not perfect but i enjoyed the comedy within it and I like the pop-sounding voice
It is ironic, considering that the main theme of this show is racial discrimination, that there is so much discussion in these comments about the colour of her skin.

unpopular opinion : but dove cameron was my favorite actress in this musical she seemed actually excited and had a lot of energy
She did!
and accurate vocals too
Unpopular opinion: I preferred one of the 3 leads. And florals are awesome for spring.
Doves not even in the video and people are still talking about her.. maybe talk about the people who are actually in the video and not the person who’s been talked about over and over again?!
Totally unconvincing chemistry. Maybe if link was singing to Seweed.
The actress who plays Penny's mom is so good and does not get the appreciation she deserves from this audience
Don’t you go disrespecting aunt voula like that 😂
Her name is Andrea Martin, and I like her as well. Not only a talented actress, but hilarious as well lol.
I don't know if it's the lack of live reactions. The chemistry. The orchestration. Or something else. But this is intensely awkward and passionless.
As someone who performed in this musical my senior year, I agree. This is super awkward and feels really forced 😅
Curwhibble absolutely the actors are not on sync if you know what I mean and they change the story a bit the half of the story should be black people and racism. But in the musical they made it all about Tracy and couplesss etccc and Inez didn’t won

For some reason I prefer Amanda Bynes “Penny” vocally for this song.
I think her voice fits the character better. Ariana is technically good but penny is quirky and shy which i dont think ari does good

I don't get it either because I feel like they're all talented, but here it's all so stale.
I think penny had the chemistry...
Thats what happens when you get a gay guy to try and act in love with a big girl
"So that I CAN GET MY HANDS ON YOU" thats the one line i'll never forget😂😂❤
I’m surprised I’m not a year late- I just found the “mama I’m a big girl now” song on Spotify and now I’m here- a day later. Nice.
this happened in 2016 hun you’re REALLY late
4:43 when he pulled her skirt back down 🥺

That was cute... I wish I was Ariana, mostly because I'm crazy about Ephraim.

I played Prudy two years ago, and lemme just say, tying Penny to the bed and making a crazy face was the best part of the show!
I played Penny in one and that scene was one of my favorites too!! 💘 I love musical theater sm 😭🫶

@@brianaustin5467 this has nothing to do with fps, tbh, because the keys are indeed changed for the film. hell, even Tracy's whole verse is removed
Andrea Martin is such an exellent comedic actress, its awesome how both her and Alison Janney nailed this minor role.
this set piece is so heart breaking, you can only see half of their performance through the bars :(
I love Penny’s mother. She’s hilarious.
lmao what ariana did with her eyebrows at 4:26 had me dead😆🤣😂
No one can beat the 2007 hairspray I was still disappointed in the ending
YeS thank you for that I feel the same way

That's the original ending of the musical, though 🤷. I do like Velma getting fired instead of promoted, but it really is the original ending, including inviting Amber and Velma to join the party.

There’s an It musical??? Where can I find that?

Is it just me or when tracy sings “so I can get my hands on you” at 5:19 it is satisfying the way she sings it-
Yes!
Cringe for me

Wish Ariana stayed with Broadway. I think her acting really could have been something if she wasn't so out of practice.
her singing too :( i think her pop career really damaged her voice. she used to sound so powerful, but even amanda bynes outsang her as penny.

I sadly agree. I was most excited to see Arianna play Penny (Penny was always my favourite character) but Arianna just felt flat to me.
Maëlle Damaged her voice? LMAO clearly u haven’t seen any vocal clips from swt tour. the best she’s ever sung.

Tracy is always played a newcomer. It’s tradition.

For the record, Garrett does give off Zac Efron and Matthew Morrison vibes while also giving off his own take on the character.

It would have been amazing to see the original cast from the movie do this live 🙌🏻
YASSSS I wanted to see Ariana Grande on this so badly!
I liked the quartet from the 2007 movie remake of Hairspray better
Hear hear
The 2007 movie was just perfect in general
I like the original broadway cast better. Kerry Butler is da BEST!
Yeah
I'm a little sad they didn't have Link make a mini-flamethrower out of a can of hairspray but they probably didn't want kids trying that at home lol.
“They can keep us from kissing but they can’t keep us from singing” lmao wow
to be fair, that was in the obc version. if you listen to the obc version he literally says the exact same thing in the same cringey way lmao
