Hairspray The Movie

March 1, 2007 – This just in: Wild About Movies publisher Tim Nasson spent a couple of minutes with John Travolta in Boston two weeks ago, where Travolta was promoting his film “Wild Hogs.”

“So how much fun was it wearing a mu-mu and donning a wig, and getting your eyes and face done every day for the entire shoot?” Nasson asked Travolta.

“I did it all. I wore nylons, bras, girdles, slips, high heels, well, not very high heels, wigs. You name it,” laughed Travolta. “I had a blast making the movie and I think kids of all ages will embrace the movie just as much as they have the Broadway show and the original ‘Hairspray’ Movie. But, I am glad that the dress-up days are over.”

December 2006 – This just in: Just as Edward Speleers decided to shorten his name to “Ed Speleers” for his big screen debut in “Eragon,” Nicole Blonsky is going the same route. In the yet to be released trailer of “Hairspray The Movie,” Blonsky will be referred to as Nikki – Nikki Blonsky. So Nikki Blonsky is the new Nicole Blonsky.
