Haylie Duff in Hairspray
Haylie Duff (pictured with the bouffant wig) started her run on Broadway last night in Hairspray as the snotty Amber Von Tussle. Aaron Tveit also started performances yesterday as the fellow nicest kid in town Link Larkin. Haylie, 21, sister Hilary, and the rest of the Hairspray cast celebrated the night away at The Palm West restaurant. The Palm’s GM Chris Gilman said, "Haylie was delightful … and a most welcomed addition to our Broadway community." More pictures in the gallery!
UPDATE :: I had the whole "Haylie Duff Experience" last night. I ate at The Palm West restaurant (Audrey and I shared the 5 lb. lobster and it was AMAZING) and got to see Hairspray again. Amazing as usual. I listen to the soundtrack all the time, so I sang along this time. And if I was allowed to stand in the aisles, I would have danced all of the choreography too. Haylie did a medicore job filling the role of Amber… the dancing definitely needed a lot more work. On a side note, I really missed Diana DeGarmo in the role of Penny Pingleton… Caissie Levy didn’t seem as gawky to me. Anyway, buy your tickets now or wait until Diana returns on September 8th.

Damn, that’s one fugly chick.
Way to go Haylie for not trying to be like your sister and not dying your hair blonde like every other sister wanna be in Hollywood (are you listening Ashley Simpson). It’s very classy of you to not only take another path, but on Broadway no less! I think you look great and good for you wearing your costume proudly!
bleh..just another anorexic young hollywood chick..hillary looked better with some meat on her..i do respect her wait-til-marriage-to-have-sex promise…her b/f must be a saint..
Aaron’s soooo cute… he was just playing that role when it was in L.A. a month ago! At least he ends up with Tracy Turnblad and not the chick this Duff plays…
i’ve noticed haylie has a mouth like julia roberts. of course, julia roberts is much more gorgeous.
thank you jared for continuly mentioning Diana! It sucks she didn’t get in the movie, but it’s for the best. I guess (lol)
I was just wondering for those of you who have seen this show would you say it was appropriate for kids 7-10 years old? I have heard that Zac Efron and Amanda Bynes will be in the movie version and my kids just love them. I wasn’t sure of the story line for it.Thanks for anyone who can help me out.
There are definitely some adult humor moments but it’s not anything wildly inappropriate.
Thanks Jared for the info!
