The Empowering ‘You Can’t Stop the Beat’ (Ariana Grande, Dove Cameron & More!) | Hairspray Live! 

Lmao, yeah it’s amazing. I could tell they were getting tired, because that part where Tracy gave her monologue and Seaweed hugged her from behind I could feel his pain. This song is very tiring to dance to and sing at the same time. Plus like half of them doing it in heels too. 😭

@@jamirgordon9745 They also slipped him tissue to wipe off the sweat....

Especially since she didn’t even dance in her Broadway performances! They had a body double switch with her for the big choreography moments. And look at her now!

She's been dancing in high heels for years

@@themango9644 yeah but her dance skills have been slowly improving for years. I’m just pointing out that she went from not even dancing in a show to the chereo that she pulls off now! And she’s much better in heels than flats lol

Fr facts. Love them together

Weren't they in this before descendants as well, when hairspray was touring the US?

So true

They were also in a liv and Maddie episode together 👀

@@CVLEH they were???? What episode??

Yup I did this show boy is it full on

😂😂😂😂

I danced to this with the 2007 hairspray movie with Zac Efron , Amanda bines and others it’s hard I was out of breath at the end of song but it’s fun to dance and sing to for sure

They’re playing characters they’re acting

@@LUNE_ALWAYS_27 duh

@@LUNE_ALWAYS_27 they're also musical theater nerds

Seriously impressed! I can't help but smile. I don't know how they kept in the joy!

What's ironic about the fact that Kristen is portraying Dove's mother here, is that also played Maleficent in the Descendants movies and Dove portrayed Mal, her daughter.

Same 😂

That’s why the song is jokingly called “Can’t stop to breathe.”

No joke! You really need breathe control for the singing itself, let alone adding dancing.

It takes a lot of practice and training but it gets easier with every show

@Madolite i was talking about an actual live show

@@Raymondgogolf no

@@liaodiaga1122 I would like us to be friends. Is that ok with you

@@Raymondgogolf Bruh

@@liaodiaga1122

Same here.

Even though she’s terrible in musicals?

​@@Kcc8256Kind of like your income

That is cool, but she just doesn’t have a strong enough voice for musical theater IMO.

@@vannah3729 She literally started out in musical theatre. Y'all can't use common sense to figure out that since they paid for her appearance they most likely asked her to sing in her more stylized pop voice.

@@crispri3919 She was in a handful of musicals as a child, that doesn't make her a Broadway legend. By that standard, I got my start in musical theatre too lol. You act like I'm attacking her, I just said I don't like her voice for a musical theatre role, and if she was requested to sing in that style (doubtful, just sounds like her normal voice) then I think that was a bad directorial choice. Calm down, I don't hate your fave, she's just not mine. The fact that you have to attack people's income and intelligence for having a different opinion is kinda sad and makes you look really childish and insecure. Are you ok?

Jennifer Hudson in movies and name please for me

Literally

Ik it’s so annoying

@@MJ.P.SG-7 ntm on her

I love it

I love it! She can blend in but she also stands out!

Hi Genie I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this compliment. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….🌹🌹

One of the best examples of this was when they did the legally blonde musical behind the scenes in audition process. To audition they showed how you had to be able to sing full belt while doing a pelaton exercise. Incredible. Totally missed by most how hard it is. Also to not heavy breath into your mic!

I know right? The stamina!

I KNEW I recognized Garret's face!!!! Since watching him in "Teen Beach Movie," he's been awesome!

He do it best on King Cobra 😍😚

Yes! i was hoping someone else noticed him! He was phenomenal!

It makes me sad she's so hated rn

Rosie O’Donnell?? Where was she???

@@RonnieStewartJr she didn’t have a huge part on the show! She was the gym teacher! But she still did amazing!

You don't mention Harvey Fierstein. He won the Tony Award for the part when the show was new. They were nervous about casing him because of his voice, but they had to double the length of "timeless to me" because audiences went wild for it every night. He's not big in Hollywood, but he's fantastically respected in the Broadway world - not only for his performing, but also for his writing, and for his work with up-and-coming people. Cyndi Lauper regularly credits him for shepherding her thorough creation of Kinky Boots, which she won a Tony Award for (best composer).

2007 is iconic. Young Zac and Amanda, AMAZING performances from Queen Latifa and John Travolta. Christopher Watkins also did amazing as well and SEAWEED.. full. Stop, he was amazing

@@Seraphina.Is. I think there are more big people in this movie. They all did amazing but this one always sticks to me. I like the acting better, the singing better, etc.

When did killing, destroying, smashing,etc. become "good" things. There are proper words with the correct meaning. Why do you (and many others) not use them? Are you a Millennial?

Shut up Boomer@@tessdurberville711

She ate and left no crumbs

I think it’s Andrea Martin.

@@HLPiepgrass Yes.

I didn’t know Olivia Newton John passed away! 😓

yeah, they had to cut a lot of songs from the stage musical when they put the movie together. They also expanded on Sandy's role because they had a big name for it.

Good For You is the best DEH song...and it just... didn't get in...

@@PupRiku I listened this song all last week from original Broadway soundtrack ❤️ This song and Anybody have a map - best songs 🌹

I mean the hairspray movie with Mac Efron my favorite even though they cut momma im a big gurl because budget reasons

frr

Definitely!!

Me! Literally why I clicked the video.

So disrespectful.

I was just looking for that…. Disgusted me. She was shining!!!

Maddie Baillio!

Exactly. It felt like she was playing herself

There is a big difference between the people who are really trained for working at the musical theatre and Ariadna Grande.She is not at the same high level like the other singer, dancers and actors of the ensemble.

@@sylviaandiel9201 Ariana Grande came from a musical theater background so I feel she could have acted differently, but didn’t. I think I blame the directors. Vocally she’s just out of place with everyone else and they didn’t give her more direction to match the singing/acting style of the show.

Same

broo agreed :(

The 2007 had a pretty excellent cast too

I guess you aren’t an Ariana grande fan

@@haleynicole5166 Haha I was rewatching it and wondered if I mentioned Ariana, she's definitely up there as one of the best

Lol yes 😂

🤣

I mean she is in theater in her childhood so this basically like a trip back down to memory lane for her

Same, I can't watch this without having tears down my face in the second part.

"lar"

We see what you did there 👀

It definitely is!!

Juliette wasn’t in this one but she was Sandy in Grease Live :)

Me too. Always crying on this song 😢

I agree, she’s kind of just playing herself! I would love to see her comedic timing shine a little more too

What a nice way to put that 😂

well, she's filming as G(a)linda for the movie adaptations of Wicked (yes, adaptation*s* - they're splitting it into two films with the first one stopping at Defying Gravity)

Didn't she started as a theatre kid?

@@notmyname3556 She did! In the musical 13 - which apparently is now adapted and on Netflix, but not her version. I remember seeing that and my friend and I going how talented everyone in it was. Turns out both Ariana and Elizabeth Gillies were in it
