Did a quick search and couldn't find a thread for this TV Live Musical... Thank you, I thought there was one but I couldn't find it anywhere when I did a search! 
But yeah, Kristin Chenoweth! I'm game!

Also, it is Kristin, not Kristen.

Ahh sorry! Yeah when I first read "Ariana Grande cast in Hairspray", I thought she'd be Amber but I guess she's used to playing dirty characters and Penny is one of those. I think without love is the only song? |

Ariana Grande? I've seen her a few times on Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show and thought she was just bad. Such a paperthin voice. Terrible casting choice.

Ariana Grande has an excellent singing voice, but she sings such appalling music that it's nigh-on impossible to tell.

I don't think I've heard of anyone in it so far.

I must've confused her with Demi Lovato. Still not overly happy with Ariana Grande being cast, but I don't think it'll be as bad as I feared this morning. |

Glee star Becca Tobin to play Amber.
Isn't it just Link to be cast now?

Maybe the guy that was 'the replacement Cory Monteith' in Glee that they found on the Glee project. He would make an excellent Link and has the teeth for it...help me out here. He was just in a movie that never came anywhere near me so I couldn't see it...by the 'Boyhood' and 'Dazed & Confused' guy...pah! you lot are useless |

Some more casting (final I think)
Dove Cameron to play Amber and Garrett Clayton as Link. From the looks of it, they are both stars of Disney Channel.
Really like this cast, any idea if ITV2 will air this over here like they did with Grease?

Has anybody heard anything else about this being aired in the UK? All the promo looks AMAZING and I love the cast - I'm sure it will be great!
NBC have never aired a musical of theirs in the UK before so I'm hoping loads that they will give the rights to a UK broadcaster to air this. Hairspray is a great musical and I'm sure it would get the viewing figures.

You're wrong there, NBC's Sound of Music did air here on Channel 4 about 4 months after it went out but it wasn't really received particularly well so I presume that's why it's not happened since

Video of the cast singing YCSTB!! So excited to see this programme, Jennifer Hudson is the BEST casting for Motormouth.
Is it me or is Arianna certainly miming in this?
