Hairspray Page #10

Hairspray contestants.

Hey.

All right, all right.

We are so close to announcing...

the new Miss Teenage Hairspray.

Look at that board.

What a nail-biter this one is turning into.

Ladies and gentlemen, the final tally.

It is my...

obligation...

to announce that Amber von Tussle...

Is about to get out-danced.

Tracy Turnblad!

What!?

# You can't stop an avalanche #

# As it races down the hill #

# You can try to stop the seasons, girl #

# But 'cha know you never will #

# And you can try

to stop my dancin' feet #

# But I just cannot stand still #

# 'Cause the world keeps

spinnin' round and round #

# And my heart's keepin' time

to the speed of sound #

# I was lost till I heard the drums #

- # Then I found my way #

- No.

- # 'Cause you can't stop the beat #

- Link!

# Ever since this old world began #

# A woman found out if she shook it #

# She could shake up a man #

# And so I'm gonna

shake and shimmy it #

This throne is mine!

# The best that I can today #

# 'Cause you can't stop #

Aah! Let me down!

# The motion of the ocean

or the sun in the sky #

# You can wonder if you wanna

but I never ask why #

# And if you try to hold me down #

# I'm gonna spit in your eye #

# And say #

# That you can't stop the beat #

They love you, Link.

Yeah?

Not for long.

Inez, come on!

Let's dance.

Little Miss Inez Stubbs!

Ladies and gentlemen.

Look at my baby go.

- Inez.

- Inez?

- Mm.

- Come on.

Oh! There you go!

Give her a hand, folks!

Little Miss Inez Stubbs!

Ladies and gentlemen.

# You can't stop a river

as it rushes to the sea #

# You can try to stop

the hands of time #

# But 'cha know it just can't be #

# And if they try to stop us, Seaweed #

# We'll call the N-double-A-C-P #

# 'Cause the world keeps

spinnin' round and round #

# And my heart's keepin' time

to the speed of sound #

# I was lost till I heard the drums #

# Then I found my way #

# 'Cause you can't stop the beat #

# Ever since we first saw the light #

# A man and woman liked to shake it #

# On a Saturday night #

# And so I'm gonna

shake and shimmy it #

- # With all of my might #

- Mother!

# Today #

# 'Cause you can't stop

the motion of the ocean #

# Or the rain from above #

# They can try to stop the paradise #

Hello?! Hello?!

# We're dreamin' of

but you cannot stop #

# The rhythm of two hearts in love #

# To stay #

# 'Cause you can't stop the beat #

Aah! Aah!

Ahh!

Amen.

I am now a checkerboard chick.

Penny!

No!

Aah!

Mommy.

Ow.

Live television:
There's nothin' like it.

Penny!

And now, it's the moment

you've all been craving for.

We have to wait till

they go to commercial.

As you know, we've kept the lines open up

to the last minute.

And those lines have been

burnin' up our switchboard.

Never in the history of this pageant...

has there been such a surge of late voting.

Baltimore, you've picked a winner.

And the new Miss Hairspray is...

- Inez Stubbs!

- What?!

Inez, you done it! You did it!

How about that?

Yes!

Come on over here, Little Inez.

Go, babe!

Oh! Inez!

Oh, my God!

Ohh!

That's my baby!

That's my baby girl!

But... She's...

she's not even a candidate.

She just got a tidal wave

of calls, velma.

But this is invalid.

This is impossible.

Well, anyone who dances

for it is eligible.

Rule 30, paragraph 5, asterisk,

down at the bottom. OK.

Well, this also makes you the lead dancer

on The Corny Collins Show.

Ladies and gentlemen,

The Corny Collins Show...

is now and forever officially integrated!

Oh, oh! Oh!

All right. Yeah.

Interracial dancing has broken out

at the WYZT stage.

Just look at the crowd's reaction.

Back to you, Steve.

# I was lost till I heard the drums #

# Then I found my way #

# 'Cause you can't stop the beat #

Amber, stop it!

I lost, Mom.

Let's just deal with it.

No, you did not lose.

You cannot have lost...

because I switched the damn tallies.

Smile, Miss Crabmeat.

You're on Candid Camera.

That was a good shot, don't you think?

Not bad.

Ha ha ha! What are you doing?

Get that away from me!

Go to commercial!

Go!

velma!

Pack your desk.

You've tainted the name of Ultra Clutch.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

How can you taint a cancerous

can-a chemicals?

You're fired!

I ca-I can't be fired.

Oh, yeah?

Last chance

to join the dance, folks.

Everyone is welcome!

Wilbur.

Do it now, or forever wish you had.

Really?

Show 'em, baby.

Nobody can dance like you.

# You can't stop my happiness #

# 'Cause I like the way I am #

# And ya just can't stop

my knife and fork #

# When I see a Christmas ham #

# So if you don't like the way I look #

# Well, I just don't give a damn #

# 'Cause the world keeps spinnin'

round and round #

# And my heart's keepin' time

Whoa!

Oh! I love you!

You did great!

Corny, do something.

The show is turning to gumbo.

Not a chance, velma.

This is the future.

Maybelle, let's go.

This is your time.

Yeah.

All right, Miss buttercup.

It's time to wrap this mutha up.

# Oh, oh, oh #

- # You can't stop today #

- No!

# As it comes speedin' down the tracks #

# Ooh, child, yes #

# Child, yesterday is history #

Be gone!

# And it's never comin' back #

# Look ahead! #

# 'Cause tomorrow is a brand-new day #

# And it don't know white from black #

# And so we're gonna shake

and shimmy it #

# And have some fun today #

# 'Cause you can't stop #
