  • The REAL "Hairspray"!

  • Did anyone else read Low Budget Hell about the behind the scenes stuff?

  • "I can't see through her hair." hahaha

  • John Waters FTW!!!

  • 2.02 its mr pinky playing wilba :D

  • What's that dance at 0:32 called?

  • The Mashed Potato.

  • @theTJster100 The Mashed Potato.

  • Both versions of "Hairspray" are great. Both versions told the movie in different ways.

  • No remake or re-imagining can ever compete with this film. But you'd have to be a little less "mainstream" to appreciate all of the legends in this movie, and all the incredibly witty dialogue and innuendo. That's why it's a "cult" film. And positively brilliant.

  • I love the musical movie version of this but I'll just say this: Divine scares the crap out of me.

  • thanks!!!

  • o_O holy crap , that is my school

  • please, somebody tell me the song at 0:50

  • Dancin' Party by Chubby Checker

  • I never seen the trailer of original movie before. It sure takes me back to 1989 when I first saw Hairspray on cable. I love the movie ever since then. I also saw the broadway musical twice. I say Devine, John Travolta, and Harvey Fierstein (who played Enda in the broadway musical) gave the best performance in playing Edna Trublad.

  • I have to see the old one, but I don't why everyone is dissing John Travolta in the new Hairspray--- Hillarious! I loved him in it and with Christopher Walkin. Also love the music in new one. Looks like the old one is grittier and might be more authentic, however.

  • "Young lady, that is not a hair DO, it is a hair DON'T!"

  • debbie H, Mizz D, SonnyB, just one wonderous gathering, Miss Soft Crab indeed

  • this movie was and still is awsome it shouldve never have been remade in my opinon and yes i saw the remake not all of it only to the part when travolta sings and it bored me

  • nothing before the original i love this movie

  • the madison is soo easy to do!

  • anyone know who the black man is who sang on stage during the dance for the "negros"? Also the name of that song? It was awsome....

  • "nothing take the place of you"-Toussaint McCall

    this rockabilly singer Lil Gizelle does a brilliant version of it! shes one of my favoritess

  • the hair in this movie is so inspiring ahha

  • i think the ratio is 50/50. even though i think this movie is suckish, and the new one's better. but some like classic more and some like the new one more. So it's 50/50!

  • I prefer this version. Love Divine!

  • Me too. John Travolta tried, but there's no way he could match Divine as the mom!!!

  • I don't agree... I personally hate Divine! John did such a better job!

  • I also agree. I could see Divine as the mom. But, John Travolta, I couldn't see him in a dress as a female role.

  • I know. No disrespect to John Travolta - he's an awesome actor, who can do anything - but Divine was made for the dual role (you know he also played a male role - in a suit - of a commissioner, I think - in the original Hairspray.

  • Yeah. I know he's an awsome actor in a bunch of good films (like Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Pulp Fiction), but the musical Hairspray, I told myself "I would want to see him in a comedy, but not as a female role."

  • @recovering16 you are right he did play both divine did

  • Queen Latifah's got nothing on Ruth Brown.

  • My family and I are not a big fan of Hairspray but my mom and I prefer the old version because the music is 60s music. I like the songs in the new one, but they don't sound like sixties music, they sound like modern music.

  • i love this movie sooooooo much better than the newer one!

  • whos the woman at 0;21

  • Pia Zadora

  • this looks a bit dark, and more off beat than the new one, anyone prefer it?

  • YES!!!! lol

  • I like this one more than the new one. In my opinion this one is waaaaaaaaaaay better. It has original music of the 60's not new music. I don't like the new one. They focused more on Tracey's mother. This one is 100 times better. They used the 60's music, which I think that matters the most. The new one has some horrible music, in my opinion, because it doesn't go for what the kids in baltimore were fighting for. Music had a lot to do w/what was happening in the 60's.

  • That's wright! This one is better than new one.

    1. Better music

    2. They show more fiting for the rights of man...

    3. Cast is better

  • Yup, that right:)

  • The guy playing Wilbur that's Ben Stiller's dad Jerry Stiller.

  • yeah wilbur turnblad is mr pinky in the new movie musical.

  • woahhhhhhhh!!!!! wow

    thats an awesome random fact

    i like awesome random facts thanks!!

  • no puede ser, ando buscando esta pelicula por todos lados y nadie la tiene, te amo al que puso este trailer, ya soy mas feliz ^^

    Me encanta por ke salen Divine y Sonny Bono... woooow

  • I love this movie it is the best

  • I don't understand how people hate the original but love the new one. You DO realize that without the original, there wouldn't have been a new one? >:(

  • yeah thats true. but people who were born later on probably think the newer version is more appealing. Ok i've never seen the original, but i reckon, from the look of it, i nowuld like it as much as i love the new one :)

  • Wow, I'm so glad they remade this. O__O;;

  • Well, accually, the 2007 movie is not a remake. The 2007 movie was based off the musical that was based on the original movie. In the original, there was no singing. But, when they made the musical movie, John Waters (who directed the original movie) decided to write a sequel to it.
