"I hear we're handing out hugs," she suggested slyly. "Might I have one, too?"

-Freddie

[she doesn't wanna hug him she just wants to bother him]

He side eyed her, mouth twisting into a shape of disgust before he covered it, looking ready to retch. "Nuh-uh- I'm not even close enough to do that, you're probably coated in hairspray-"

Introduced Hannibal (NBC) to my bestie and we binged it last night. This morning we decided to watch Hairspray and this bitch literally started singing, "Good morning Baltimore.. there's a killer that lives next doooor.. I saw him eyeing these thighs, you seeeeeee... He's gonna garnish them with par-s-leyyyyyy.. And I was just like......... This is why I fucking love you 🤣💀

hate when your phone thinks it has the right to shuffle your entire music library. like just because i didn't queue up my regular playlist i'm waking up to Hairspray Live! (Original Soundtrack of the NBC Television Event)

If John Waters offered to turn your story into a movie would you go for it?

Hm. Admittedly I've only seen Pink Flamingos (I refuse to watch Hairspray) which is very unserious and like I associate him with very camp whereas I think my bullshit is a bit too serious (it comes with being a very boring person which I am), very NBC Hannibal gay than camp gay but at the same time I trust him, yanno? Plus maybe as a result my stuff could get (niche) famous and then I'd have a platform for Making Whatever I Want.

Frankly I'd watch the dark as hell comedy of afterlife au bullshit and laugh all the way...

Melissa I dropped my Hairspray CD earlier and broke the case 😭 my CD is fine tho thank god 💗

anyway do you have a favorite version of Hairspray?

i saw the "dropped your hairspray cd" and i was so distraught for you until i kept on reading the sentence. thank god the cd wasn't damaged!!

my answer to this is really complicated because in my gut i want to say the movie because that holds really big sentimental value for me. i first watched it with my friend in elementary school because she loved it, could sing and talk along to the whole movie kind of love, and from then on the movie and the songs from it have always been associated with her and our friendship. BUT at the same time i can't say it's my favorite version because the way they changed the plot and completely cut out or reworked some songs sucks and john travolta as edna was, let's just say, not the best choice (though after reading the movie's wiki i'll say he was a much better choice than the other people they were considering). i also can't say the 2016 live version is my favorite because, well, it just wouldn't be right to say one of NBC's live musical specials was my favorite version of any musical. and ariana grande sucked as penny her singing voice did not fit at all with the music or the other cast members. so i guess i have to say my Favorite version is the original broadway cast. that said, i've been listening to the live version the most, so there's that

it's funny you asked me this because i was just thinking about making my ideal hairspray playlist which would be me picking my favorite version of each song out of the 3 options on spotify. i think my most controversial option for that would be choosing the movie version of mama im a big girl now that's not even in the movie lol i really like that version with the 3 actresses who played tracy i think it's fun

but now, i have to ask you, what is your favorite version, kay??

LONG LIST OF THINGS THAT MAKE MY BLACK HEART FEEL SOMETHING.

NBC's Hairspray Live! ↳ “woke up today, feeling the way i always do; hungry for something that i can’t eat, when i hear that beat! that rhythm of town starts calling me down, it’s like a message from high above, calling me out to the smiles and the streets that i love! good morning, baltimore! everyday’s like an open door!”

[tetriminas]

it is a fucking CRIME that "Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now" wasn't included in the 2007 movie version of Hairspray bc that song is. SO GOOD

Stop Making Mediocre, Familiar Live Musicals On TV

Last week, NBC aired their yearly live musical: Annie. I watched it. It wasn’t awful (though Harry Connick Jr’s bald cap was). However, it did not need to be made. It’s not like no one knows the story of Annie. It’s not like there wasn’t a recent and decent movie remake of it in 2014. It’s not like these live musicals are spectacular productions that become instant classics in pop culture. And…
