Hairspray! The Beat Goes On

Hairspray! The Beat Goes On

Entertainment Weekly takes a sneak peek at the Hairspray DVD (release date November 20, 2007) and shares a video of the song, “I Can Wait.”

This wistful sweet ballad was composed especially for the film as a solo for heroine Tracy Turnblad (played by Nikki Blonsky), and was actually shot for the film, but was eventually deleted before the final release.

The scene shows Tracy singing the ballad while locked up in Prudy Pingleton’s bomb shelter basement, interspersed with montages of events that took place earlier in the movie.

Don’t wait to catch the video at ew.com.

d holiday @ 11/16/2007 at 6:45 pm

i was wonderin when it was comin out because they said it was coming out on the 13th. i am going to watch the “run and tell that” scene over and over. elijah kelly did his damn thing in the movie.

You honestly have to be such s grumpy old **** not to enjoy hairspray even a tiny bit, I absolutley loved it!

I don’t really like her. she annoys me. but thats only my opinion. :)

But do you guys know what i think is kind of funny. People saying she’s going to be big in hollywood. Um, no she’s not. Have you seen her? I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with her weight!! Don’t get me wrong. BUT c’mon people. this is HOLLYWOOD. & hollywood is a cruel place. I predict the most she’ll get anytime soon is supporting roles and maybe main roles every now and then. Still not big though. :(

i don’t like her…

You don’t like her because why?

She’s not Vanessa…

You girls need to grow up!

Sing on Miss Blonsky!

I’m guessing Willian likes girls with more meat

I don’t like girls at all.

But wha’ts wrong with girls with meat?

Cacomorphobia is an ugly thing, seems to many people suffer from it.

THEY DON LIKE HER NOT BECOZ SHES NOT V! BECOZ THEY LOVE ZAC EFRON!

YAYAYAYA FINALLY JARED YOU HAVE SOMETHING WITH JUST NIKKI ON HERE!!!!!

WE NEED YOU TO POST MORE NIKKI!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for this I CAN”T WAIT for the DVD!

Yay! I love Nikki Blonsky! She is so gorgeous and talented, not to mention sweet, funny, and down to earth. Also, William, you are so right. There’s not a thing in the world wrong with big girls. It’s horrible how many people say mean things about her just because she’s not a size 0 and because she’s so close with Zac Efron. Grow up, people.

And like all you girls tell us, if you don’t like Nikki then don’t post on this thread!

She his a wonderful singer/actress/person

I agree with William

Carrie I also agree with you!

Go Blonsky!

YAY!!!!!! HAIRSPRAY COMES OUT ON DVD NOVEMBER 20!!!!! THAT’S JUST 9 DAYS B4 MY B-DAY!!!!! WHOHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! (SCREAM)

VanessaGarcia19 @ 11/16/2007 at 7:43 pm

I AGREE GO NIKKI! SHE HAS REAL TALENT
AND PLUS IF ZAC LIKES
HER WHY CANT YOU! JUST THEY
WAY YOU LOVE VANESSA HUDGENS
TOO….I LOVE ZAC EFRON SOO MUCH HE REALLY SHOWED
HE’S HAS MORE POTENTIAL THAN JUST HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL
I LOVED HAIRSPRAY I CANT WAIT! :)

Thanks you guys for all the support! Remember to watch the AMA awards. Who do you think will win, Hsm 2, or Hairspray?

I can’t wait for the DVD!!!!!!!!!! Nikki is such a great girl and is going to have an awesome career! I can’t wait for her album to come out! WOOHOOO! You go BLONSKY! ZIKKI FTW!

Thanks for the link. I love Nikki’s voice!

awwwww………i hate that movie so much……

Oh jeez. More immature people coming and making comments about her? Grow up. If you dont like her then dont post.

Nikki is brillaint. Her talents far surpass those of many other young stars out there. She WILL make it in Hollywood. She is classy and down to earth. She will make it. There is nothing wrong with her not being a size zero and that wont keep her from making it in that business. Look at Queen Latifah, she has gotten PLENTY of amazing roles. Saying she’s too big for Hollywood is pure bullcrap. Not everyone will be nice, but thats how it is in the real world, not just Hollywood.

I cannot wait for Hairspray to come out. That DVD is going to be packed with amazing stuff.

yeah you tell ‘em Jules, Nikki Blonsky already wrapped another movie after Hairspray and is working on a third. She’s pretty unique which will get her far.

Her rendition of this moves me to tears. Nikki has a phenomenal voice and will not be confined by the Hollywood regime because she has the talent across the board for film, TV AND theatre which believe me she will excel in. Above and beyond all that she has class and a sense of humour about herself and the industry. Very old Hollywood, she’s a star in the true sense of the word.

More please Jared ;)

I love Nikki. thanks for posting this Jared. she’s awesome. and has an amazing singing voice. I can’t wait to see her in more stuff. :)

yay Jules and Trace can’t agree with you more!!! she is going to make it in Hollywood just fine!

Jules and Irish, well said. Nikki has something that a lot of other girls in Hollywood lack: talent. She’s smart and funny, and seeing as how she’s already wrapped one movie and is currently filming another one, I think it’s safe to say she’ll have plenty of work, unlike some other people I could mention. Not that I am thinking of anyone in particular, HUDGE.

and then we have award season coming up. and she’s sure to get some nominations. :)

Irish, Jules, and our new shipper William! Right on guys! Ms.Blonsky is the shiznit! I am glad that we finally have a girl that can be a great role model for young girls! We need more woman like that who aren’t ashamed of being a bigger girl but lavish in it!

nice they shoulda put that in the movie. i hope she does make it big in hollywood. she’ll be an inspiration for people everywhere

She’s pretty much a shoo-in for a Golden Globe and BAFTA nom :) She’s already won a Young Hollywood Award and Rising Star Award this year, it’s just the start for her :)

Very awesome to see you reporting on Nikki Jared!

I can’t wait for the DVD release. I have been anticipating this!

And I have no idea why they cut that from the movie. It was a good song and her voice sounds amazing in it. Loved how they weaved in the scenes from earlier in the movie.

thanks guys for the support! and yes me and zac are best friends, but he has a girlfriend. if people like me because they know I am friends with zac, then you are not REAL FANS…

Jas you are so right! At least she doesn’t have to take her clothes off to get some attention or date a hot guy. Hmm who could I be talking about * Cough Hudge*.

Anyways, Nikki is a triple threat, she can sing, dance, and act. She has a personality thats real! ThankGod! We need more girls like her. She doesn’t have to pretend to be happy. She has a good team behind her helping her make the right decisions!

Nikki rocks! I can’t wait to see more from her.

Hopefully you will be reporting on her more often!

Nonna I couldn’t agree more! JJ you need to start posting more about this girl!

I can’t wait for this DVD it’s going to be absolutly amazing! and I love my girls from FF everything you say well put!

Nikki you are the reason that most of us even fell for Zac. You are making him become a man! SO THANKYOU THANKYOU!

Yes, exactly. I think it’s more that I like Zac because he’s friends with Nikki than the other way around.

I agree I didn’t even notice him until Nikki came along, then poof yay for them and they’re amazing friendship!

I love this movie but I really despise her voice.

Jared - It’s about time that you are giving Nikki some attention on her own! She is amazing with Zac, and they are such great friends and have terrific chemistry on and off the screen, but she deserves her own recognition.

This song is SOOOO beautiful! She is so talented, and we’ve only seen the beginning!

woooo! More Nikki!!!!
I freaking love the girl so much!! I seriously cannot wait to get this DVD!!!

Nikki is the most beautiful girl ever!!!!!

Thanks Jared for posting news about Nikki she is freakin amazing and we love her!

Nikki is just so incredibly talented.

JJ, Any chance you can give us some info on Harold or Queen Sized? I know a lot of us would really love to know about her upcoming movies. :)

And I couldn’t agree more. Nikki is amazing. It’s as simple as that.

umm the person. who says you’re Nikki Blonsky

you are soooooo not her. I’m sure she has better things to do than be on JJ.

so stop role playing. it’s annoying.

Nikki has been so busy working. She has a feature film wrapped, and a Lifetime movie in production. I would love to hear more about these projects, I agree Nonna.

I just love her confidence and charisma. She is also a kind and caring person who gives her time to charity.

I hate it when people that don’t like someone post about them, just to be rude. It’s not called for.

Hey, Ugh. I bet that’s what people say when they see you coming: “Her again? Ugh!”

I would love to have more updates on her other movies and singing career!

Jules, how is it possible I missed you’re amazing post. ICA. Nikki is an inspiration and a role model for everyone.

It doesn’t matter her size, she is too talented to fade away. Not only thst but she is a beautiful girl and it’s nice to see someone in Hollywood that isn’t considered ‘conventional’ or a type you would normally see. News flash not all women are a size 0 and that is okay.

Nikki is already proving she’s not going anywhere, I mean she had been getting awards, just wrapped Harold and is now filming that movie Queen Sized. She truly is a rising star and one of the ‘ones to watch’ ;)

Keep in mind Jared, celebs always remember the people who supported them before they became ‘hugely famous’ so it’s nice to see you *finally* reporting on her alone.

yeah and people who talk about her size. look at Queen Latifah. she has many roles and she’s big and so will Nikki.

I mean come on. she shares an agent with John Travolta. :)

Honestly people if you don’t like Nikki why comment. JJ puts enough post about Vanessa so if you prefer her go over to her many post and make your comments. I am happy to see JJ post something on Nikki. I think Nikki will go far because she is a talented person. If you agree great if you don’t that is fine as well because I am not trying to convince anybody one way or the other.

LP

I totally agree with you

Ashley(Not The one that has be @ 11/16/2007 at 9:06 pm

There are a lot of Ashley’s in the world huh?

People actually think Zac wants to be with her or will just one day open his eyes and be like ohh yes, we’re meant for eachother? Alright then…, the movie was good so hope the dvd has a lot of extras. Also Nikki Blonsky does not define perfection nor is she a true talent across the board.

Nikki ROCKS!!!!

Keep doing your thing Nikki.

Plus Nikki doesn’t need to ***** herself about in hollywood like a certain someone (V) at least Nikki is getting Casted for films and T.V. What exactly is vanessa doing right other than HSM *YAWN* and sticking herself to Zac for more attention?

Nikki has talent and winning awards (NO not awards like the stupid Teen choice awards and all that naff; REAL awards i.e. Young Hollywood award along with Zac who also won it and Best rising Star award THIS YEAR for her role in hairspray) which proves she has got a future.

So all these vanessa fans need to bow out of this thread if you don’t like Nikki.

PEACE!!!

Hey, all i’m saying is that in “hoollywood” girls who are skinny get more roles, it’s that simple. For example, Transformers… Nikki could never apply for the role, co-star Shia Lebouf. I’m sorry but she can’t be the “love intrest” or w/e. A story about a struggling teen with her weight… yeah sure but the actress the guy has a crush on… i don’t think so.

hi to the other Ashley. is that you Ley? haha

and to *

well alot of people find Nikki talented.especially from all the praise she’s getting from critics. and we don’t even bring up Zac in here except for the fact they’re friends. we’re here to talk Nikki not Zac.

No i am not Ley

Ashley2: sorry.

No she isn’t perfect..and that’s just one of the reasons I love her ;) Not a true talent? I guess the critics disagree with you.

Click here to see her aged 16 playing the lead in the opera Carmen..performed entirely in French.

http://www.newsday.com/entertainment/movies/ny-etblonsky0824,0,5542141.story

Not true talent indeed.

well said ash!

and to * what do you think talent is then? standing in front of the camera and letting flashbulbs go off?

And we know that it’s hard for plus sized girls to get the “love intrest roles” BUT there are plenty of roles out there for normal people! And whose to say a guy like that wouldn’t have a crush on Nikki hmmmm?

She has such a pretty voice and she’s a great actress. Unfortunately, Hollywood is a cruel, cruel place, and considering her weight, she probably won’t get anything more than supporting roles. It’s not fair, but that’s just how it works.

I’m not a big fan of Nikki Blonsky, but it has nothing to do with Vanessa, like most people think it does. I just don’t like her very much, she kind of rubs me the wrong way in her interviews.

Anyway, even though I’m not a fan of hers, I still think she’s talented. It’s just too bad that she’ll constantly be discriminated against because of her weight.

________________________________________________________________

LOL HE LOVE MAN. it wil not happend

it’s okay

Even all the veteran actors of HS were amazed by Nikki’s talent and grace. I think that speaks volumes.

So the only important role a woman could have in a film is to be the love interest? Wow I sure love your logic.

Maybe she couldnt get those roles, but she will get far better ones. That actually prove her talent as more than the “love interest”. She is leading lady material. She is above being the eye candy, even though she is a stunning woman. Her curves are sexy and more and more in Hollywood that is considered a beautiful thing.

Nikki will be around for a long while. She will get amazing roles. Stay tuned.

Lucy, are you trying to say vanessa starves herself to stay skinny?

but it’s changing out there! Hollywood can change!!! and Nikki will make it change! They didn’t even need to make Hairspray, and look how well it did!!!

Lucy preach it girl! Nikki has got real talent and isn’t ashamed of her game! BIG GIRLS ARE BEAUTIFUL!

No she isn’t perfect..and that’s just one of the reasons I love her ;) Not a true talent? I guess the critics disagree with you.

Not true talent indeed….

No that’s not what i meant Jules. I said she can’t get “love intrest” roles (it’ll all be too fake). I never said girls that do get love intrest roles, can’t get any othe roles. Your mixing my words here.

right on Tracy! BIG GIRLS ARE SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!

Nikki can actually act. She’s talented enough to pull off any role. And IA Jules, although Nikki is quite capable of playing the love interest…that’s not what all roles are. Nikki will blow us away with any role she plays.

So your saying it’s impossible for a beautiful plus size girl to find love? That’s a laugh.

I think she is capable of playing the love interest, absolutely, there is no reason to think that a sane, mature man wouldnt find her attractive and her personality wonderful. Not all males think like teenage boys.

Well ‘ugh’ that is how your post came off to me. You made a point to state that, I made a point to state something else.

anyways. Nikki has said, that if it were for an awesome part she would be willing to lose the weight

also right before she started Hairspray. she has actually lost 55 pounds. but Adam (the director) made her gain it back. because Tracy is supposed to be big.

Nikki could play a love interest!!! Real love has nothing to do with current beauty standards!

In hairspray it had nothing to do with love interest but who Tracy was. Everyone fell in love with this character because she didn’t care what the world said she knew what she was meant for.

Nikki doesn’t need a man to define her in this world and that is what is so great about her. She knows what she wants and goes for it.

I mean if John Travolta put the effort in helping her out than she has something that he believes in. I mean everyone in the cast loved Nikki because she is a woman that knows what she wants.

That is why we all love Nikki because she’s got talent and she wouldn’t have gotten this far without it!

And in a movie if she becomes someone’s love interest it would be believable. Look at Queen Latifah, she’s a big woman but she does well in the love interest department. So, for all ya’ll that say because she’s big she can’t be loved you are out of your minds!

Get real! Whether you are fat or skinny you can be loved.

I have no problem with Nikki, very talented and beautiful girl :)

But for those that are saying Nikki turned him into a man… well, I think Vanessa had that one covered :) …. on his BIRTHDAY! LOL

Seriously, if you didn’t notice Zac before Nikki, that’s fine. But what is really the measure of a man? Seeing some woman besides him? That’s pretty shallow, lol.

Hollywood I think is going to stand up and take notice with Nikki. I think hollywood is slowing moving in the right direction and I think a person with as much talent and charisma as Nikki will help that change along. Oh and for the person that said Nikki could never play a love interest did you actually see Hairspray uhhh she was the love interest to none other than Zac Efron and trust me the chemistry those two had just oozed off the screen and yes it was veryyyyy believable. Not everybody is a size 0 and not every guy wants a woman that is a size 0.

IloveNikkiBlonsky @ 11/16/2007 at 9:42 pm

Thank you Nikki Blonsky for making girls like me believe that I can to anything and that I can make it in Hollywood!

She is an amazing actress and an amazing person, she is a positive roll model for many!

I can’t wait to see her future projects!!!

IloveNikkiBlonsky @ 11/16/2007 at 9:45 pm

and I too believe Hollywood is moving in the right direction just wait and see!

Okay i don’t think you guys get that not everyone cares about what inside first… A lot of guys/men are shallow so good luck with that

Sporty Spice @ 11/16/2007 at 9:46 pm

I agree with you POSH. Well said!

IloveNikkiBlonsky @ 11/16/2007 at 9:48 pm

#88 ugh, but there are people who DO! and that is when the men are separted from the boys

Posh our point is that most of the time Zac looks miserable with Vanessa and with Nikki he’s adorkable!

We are not measuring Zac according to who he is with but we are comparing how different he is with each one.

Anyways this has nothing to do with Zac but Nikki!

I hope she wins an Oscar because she deserves it!

90) Well said!!!!

well the guys who are shallow and can only see beauty as what’s “popular at the moment” aren’t worth it

Nikki is a beautiful girl.

And if you don’t like her why are you posting here? It makes no sense.

Since this topic is supposed to be about Nikki I am trying to refrain from talking about V…but it seems like most of you haters are just Vanessa fans. My ? is if you really think Zac and Nikki will never happen why so much hate toward Nikki?

Baby Spice @ 11/16/2007 at 9:52 pm

I also agree Sporty and Posh! very well said!

Baby Spice @ 11/16/2007 at 9:54 pm

Well said Posh! I agree too!

I’m not a “vanessa fan” but i don’t how you guys think that one person who’s been in one movie is gonna “change” hollywood. It’s kind of funny.

And a lot of men say they like curvy girls more than super skinny ones.

Nikki recieved praise from the entire cast of HS, Adam and the crew, and many critics.

Any Nikki hate has nothing to do with her talent and ability.

Great to see some news about Nikki! Thanks for finally giving her some solo time. She was super in Hairspray and John Travolta said she was so sophisticated and amazing that he was blown away by her! I would say that’s a pretty good testament to her talent.

Hopefully we will see and hear much more about Nikki Blonsky in the near future. She is an inspiration to young girls everywhere. Loved seeing her and Zac work so well together. For two young people they were very professional and had great chemistry . Can’t wait for the DVD.

Well said Nonna, very well said.

Why the hate if there is no threat?

Tracy, Why are you bashing Vanessa if this is not even about her nor Zac?

Ugh: Look how popular this movie is? Look at all the musicals starting to come out? If something makes money that means Hollywood is interested. Because so far what has been produced hasn’t done much.

And Nikki will not take any part thrown at her which means that there will be better scripts and better movies made. Its called the Dominoes affect.

Yeah, why do you keep bringing up Zac? U make it seems like there a couple which i bet you guys are wishing would happen.

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:00 pm

U GUYS ARE IDIOT! HE LOOK SMILEY BECOZ THEY ARE ON THE RED CARPET IDIOT!!! DO U SEE HIM WIT NIKI DAILY BASICS SMILEY? WELL I DONT! COZ THR IS NON.

Ugh

just want to tell you that even though only one movie of hers has been released.

she already filmed another one. and she’s currently filming a 3rd one right now.

I CANNOT wait until Hairspray comes out! I’ve seen the movie in theatres 8 times, and Im going to skip classes that day so I can buy it early and play it over and over and also buy it on itunes and put it on my ipod. Nikki Blonsky is amazing and I really do think that she will do other projects and such. So what if she’s not the skinniest person in the world? She’s amazing and has talent. Point blank.

Ashley 2, I’m not bashing Vanessa just speaking facts. Why are people bashing Nikki? you answer that one and I’ll answer yours.

I don’t know that Nikki can change hollywood. She’s good, but not that good. What she can do is help other girls and young women see the potential within themselves and strive to love themselves as they are and shoot for their dreams. She can also make movie execs and directors wake up and open their eyes to a greater world out there than the no-talent sticks that tend to make it. Nikki is a real role model. Because she lives her life with quality, and doesn’t need to pretend to be anyone or anything she isn’t.

She’s a lady, and we need more of those in Hollywood. No matter what her size is.

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:01 pm

NIKKI IS TALENTED! SHE HAV THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE HER OWN GUY!
BTW ZAC IS GAY

not a basher.

I don’t care whether Zac and Nikki were to become a couple. I’m just happy they’re great friends.

and of course you don’t see them in candids together.

she lives in New York, he lives in LA.

Uh, Not a basher, if you are calling someone an idiot you might want to spell things correctly :).

You know Nonna I think Zac was one of those guys who said he wasn’t into super skinny hollywood girls in one of his interviews. Would love to see these two BFF hook up again on broadway or even in another movie.

Read where he was so taken in by her talent he watched her filming scenes even when it wasn’t his day to be on set. He found her amazing. Good for Zac!

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:04 pm

U GUYS SAYING ZAC LOOK MISERABLE WIT VANESSA( COZ THEIR PIC ARE TAKEN BECOZ THEY DON WAN TO) AND SMILE ALOT WHILE WIT NIKKI, DUH! RED CARPET! THEY NID TO SMILE!!

Do you know what the upcoming film is about… well let me tell you. She’s playing an outsider/loser in highschool and then the hot jock falls head over heels for her and then they live happily ever after. Well the begining is actually true but the falling in love with the jock part is just my prediction

Jennifer I agree with what you are saying. Hollywood needs Women that act like Women and will not downgrade themselves for theh almighty dollar. Young girls need to see more woman out there that have talent and confidence in their abilities. It doesn’t matter what size you are that should not stop you from following your dreams!

Nikki and Vanessa are friends. There is no need for anyone on either side of the fan bases to bash the other.

They are both beautiful and talented in their own way so stop nit picking.

Promote peace not hate. That is what real men and women do.

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:06 pm

I DONT CARE I SPELL RIGHT OR NOT AT LEAST U GUYS UNDERSTAND IT ITS ALL I CARE! NIA NIA NIA, FYI, TIS IS ABT NIKKI NOT ZAC! DON TALK ABT THEIR LOVE INTERESTED IF U GUYS DON EVEN KNOW

umm… they don’t like her? I can’t really read minds…

ugh.

yeah I know what her upcoming projects are about. so what they’re not romantic lead parts. but at least they look good and will be done well. I’m just happy to see her have any parts at all. I think she’s great and an awesome singer. to each his/her own. no need to be hatin’ her.

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:07 pm

*INTEREST

I think if anyone is saying anything bad about Vanessa, it’s because of the Nikki bashing that has gone on in here. Like I said, if you don’t like Nikki then don’t post here and if you continue too…and continue to bash her or say bad things about her that is when we stop biting our tongues about V. Because I haven’t bashed Vanessa at all in here and I don’t go into post about her just to trash her. It’s immature and wrong.

btw - Since this post is technically about Hairspray and the DVD, I wouldn’t say that talking about Zac is OT.

And, not a basher, Zac and Nikki have lots of fun and great chemistry, even when not on the red carpet.

Rosie you are correct! Zac said he thought he was gonna teach Nikki but Nikki taught him.

She’s a wonderful girl who is gonna go far!

you guys should be thanking me… i’m making her # of comments go way up! Where are the thank yous?

I think what a lot of people seem to be missing is what actually constitutes a successful acting career. Some people become celebrities, other people become actors. Nikki Blonsky is in the latter category. She may not be able to play ‘every’ role but she will play MANY roles because she by definition of not being your sterotypical lead a character actress and this is a plus factor in her career NOT a minus. Let’s remind ourselves of another young actress once considered unconventional…

“I never had ingenue status in my life. I was never allowed to do that. I was definitely a character actor. I always thought of myself that way from the time I was blinking awake. I never had that starlet thing. I didn’t think I looked that smashing. I needed to be engaged in my work.”

THR: You played a romantic lead opposite Robert Redford in 1985’s “Out of Africa.”

“By then I was not a starlet. That was a mature woman. I never had that other thing — which saved my life. If I had started out that way, things would have been different. It’s hard — once people place you in a glamorous universe — to break out of it.”

-Meryl Streep

I think she went on to do rather well ;)

Hollywood pretty girls are 10 a penny, truly great character actresses are rare and in demand.

For example:

“I think I was the only actress who told the producers that I didn’t give a **** about taking off my clothes and showing my fat ass and my sagging tits and everything else to the whole world, when I auditioned for ‘About Schmidt.” I think the Academy gave me a nomination for that one so that I would never take off my clothes on camera again.”

Kathy Bates

A sense of humour about herself and not afraid of what the world or the industry thinks of her.

These are the people Hollywood truly respects.

Nikki could act in a variety of roles for years, never being a ‘leading lady’ and yet she would still be a highly successful actress. I believe she is a character actress with crossover potential like Streep and Bates. She will build a career because based on her choices so far she has a strong team behind her and is staying out of the Hollywood rat race, you can play the game on your own terms if you make a decision about what you want to be. Do you want to be a star or do you want to be an actor? I know which I’d rather be.

114 well said! I’m sure they are friends in real life!! They wouldn’t want us saying bad things about the other.

wow 124 that was long LOL

91 Tracy : 11/16/2007 at 9:50 pm
Posh our point is that most of the time Zac looks miserable with Vanessa and with Nikki he’s adorkable!
________________________________________________________________

SHISH!!!!

Wow, lots of wishful thinkers on here.

Fran, good point. Always love your comments.. very diplomatic as always.

The chemistry you see everyone is just friendship.. nothing more, nothing less. Why? Because he’s dating Vanessa Hudgens.

Zac and Nikki (notice i didn’t put the names together) are great in this movie. Can’t wait to buy it!!!

Let’s all get back to the matter at hand people… Nikki and her castmates :)

agree with you 100% Irish :)

IRISH I FLOVE YOU! Once again you have stated what all us Nikki fans have been saying! Well said!

haters just calm down… if Nikki isn’t your cup of tea then just don’t post here. Find someone you DO like and post there… very simple.

124! Irish! you are so right!

whats with post #123? haha

this post has nothing to do with vanessa hudgens, no one should even be mentioning her. I mean, for once jared actually posts something about nikki and then people who dont even like her have to mention that they dont like her. oh well. if you dont like her, dont even post on this.

oops didnt mean to post that 2 times. :)

oops didnt mean to post that 2 times. :)

Hey Vanilla, I see you actually read the comments, since you paid attention to me telling the story of how I came up with Narf.

I love when people read.

Notabasher, you’re hilarious. Love your post… I don’t think they’ll ever get it.. do you? LOL

Well said Irish! And didn’t John Travolta compare Nikki to Meryl Streep? I think that speaks for itself.

Hey I want everyone to post because the more counts the more we will see Nikki! So all are welcome ;)

oh sorry, narf, that was a typo… i’m dyslexic.. see i can’t spell either… but great post anyway. LOL

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:19 pm

WUT?? I DID NOT SAY I DON LIKE HER! SHE;S TALENTED GIRL AND SHE FRIEND WIT BOTH OF Z AND V! AND SOME NIKKI FANS OWNSELF BROUGHT UP THE V WORD!

NIKKI CAN COME OUT WIT OWN ALBUM WIT A VOICE LIKE TAT

I’d rather have the haters not post at all. We don’t need their post count. ;)

Tracy you should really thank ME

Nikki is so talented! I hope she has an album soon!

No problem vanilla. Thanks for the compliment.

And thanks for taking the time to read.

im sorta happy they didnt put this song in the movie. I love the song, but I dont think it goes with the flow in that point of the movie. and the movie wouldnt have transitioned into without love as smoothly as it did. anyone else agree?

I can’t wait to see Nikki get award nominations.

and I can’t wait for the AMA’s.

all I know is Hairspray better win best soundtrack, because while I enjoy listening to HSM2. no way in hell is it better than the Hairspray soundtrack.

Kourtney.

I agree with you. I love the song and her voice in it. but I’m happy it’s not in the movie.

but I’m glad it’s on the dvd.

no no no, notabasher, i know you’re not a hater at all… :) I was just saying that i love your post, that’s all :)

DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN DREAM GIRLS MIGHT WIN

Love Nikki in Hairspray and can’t wait to buy the DVD! I’m driving my family nuts with Hairspray songs and videos on Youtube.

She is an amazing and a true talent! Wow she is everywhere these days with her singing and acting. Great to see her in different roles because she is not just a one dimensional performer.

Also loved all the candid pictures of her and her BFF Zac on ff. Thanks gang! Those behind the scenes and off the set pictures are super. They look great together.

not a basher

meh. I love the songs from Dreamgirls too, but I don’t know if it’ll win. Hairspray has a ton of fans and so does HSM. so I really think it’s between these 2.

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:28 pm

I DON KNOW, WIT A GOOD VOICE LIKE JENNIFER HUDSON, BEYONCE…WOW. WHY NOT! BUT I SURE HOPE HSM2 OR HAIRSPRAY WIN =)

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:29 pm

BUT HONESTLY, DREAMGIRLS DESERV IT

wow already tons of comments way to go Nikki!

FLOVE YOU Irish!

I think Hairspray deserves to win!

not a basher.

I know. I love Jennifer Hudson’s voice. it’s amazing and Beyonce was great too. I just prefer the soundtrack to Hairspray better. so I want that to win.

but I really like the songs from Dreamgirls.

not a basher @ 11/16/2007 at 10:36 pm

I LOVE THE SONG FRON DREAM GIRLS “YOU GONNA LOVE ME” , I WAS LIKE DAMN

Okay, first I want to say that I’m very happy for Nikki and this is a cool thread. It’s great to get a peek at this deleted scene. I am very excited that the dvd is only days away now and I will be up that morning getting it at the store. :-)

Next, just wanted to say it was a little sad to read through and see the comparisons here…and if there’s real honesty, unless I missed some posts because they were removed for abuse or something, I don’t think I saw any that bashed Nikki with a comparison to she who shouldn’t need to be named since it is indeed a Nikki thread. What I mean is, the mentions of you know who came about by those defending Nikki. Anyway, just seemed, well, counterproductive to me. I am a fan of said gal too and I didn’t have any intention of discussing her here.

So, basically, maybe we can focus on Nikki’s awesomeness and leave it at that. And, I agree with narf #114. Peace is good…I like both but I respect the one this thread is celebrating. :-)

Not a Basher

I know. I FLOVE And I am telling you… that was awesome.

and I love the song Listen too.
———————————–

and yay 4 more days til Hairspray’s on Dvd. :)

Yes, please can we just keep it to Nikki and if you aren’t a fan then don’t post here. That would be great.

I can’t wait to see the new films Nikki has been working on. :)

And I CAN NOT wait for this DVD. It looks like there is a lot of amazing features. The only thing I am disappointed about is that it looks like there won’t be any bloopers and I would have really loved to see some bloopers.

OMG! Some Nikki Blonsky postings……………finally!! Love the girl and can’t wait to get my hands on the DVD. Super talent with an incredible voice. Saw her in CARMEN in high school and she was fabulous! Knew it was just a matter of time util she got discovered.

You rock girl! What a great success story for such a deserving young woman with a big heart and talent to match. She is a beautiful woman inside and out. That’s what she said about her co-star but it is also true about her.

I really hope Hairspray beats HSM2. I mean, I like the hsm2 soundtrack and I listen to it about every day but the hairspray soundtrack is way better. I think the people in hairspray have more vocal talents than the people in hsm. granted zac efron is in both but his vocal talents are more showing and shining in hairspray than they are in hsm. also, I think the hairspray songs have more depth to them.

exactly Nonna

yeah I LOVE bloopers I’m sad we’re not getting any bc I’m sure there were some great ones.

I would have loved to have seen some Bloopers! I am just glad that the dvd comes out on Tuesday! I don’t think I could have waited much longer!

we need bloppers! There might be some surprises!

ha. Bloopers!

Angie..you saw her in Carmen? *Is insanely jealous* The footage of her in that and Les Miserables blows me away every time I see it. Just wow.

You know they’re saving the bloopers for the super duper you just have to have it 1.5 release next year guys ;)

I would love bloopers too…but I’m wondering if either the HD DVD version, which I think comes out in early ‘08, or some other super duper must-have edition will include them. I love the movie and I’m not saying it’s not worth it, but I’m thinking that the producers and such are going to milk it for all it’s worth. I mean, I’m sure I’ll also be buying the new upgraded version of the cd soundtrack too. They so have their hands in my pockets! LOL.

Out of curiosity, anyone have thoughts on which version they’re getting? The Shake and Shimmy or the big deluxe locker type one.

The HAIRSPRAY soundtrack is much more professional and deserving of the award. It has depth of voices and the songs are fabulous. If it were chosen by music professionals in the business, it would be a no brainer to win. But with all the tweens voting I’m not sure the best soundtrack will win.

The DVD will be able to bring that amazing uplifting, toe-tapping music to our homes! Can’t wait!! Miss Blonsky was a super talent in the movie.

Irish, I was thinking that too! That maybe the would come out with another special edition thing that has even more special features down the road so that you have to buy both. Thise sneaky scoundrels.

And Nikki was amazing in both of those plays. I wish we could see the entire thing.

Zac Fan

I wish I could get the locker set, but I don’t really have the money for it. so I’m just getting the Shake and Shimmy.

and I wanted the new two disk sountrack but to me there was nothing new that I wanted. I only want I can wait. :D

Yes, she was just fabulous. Her high school productions were like professional sets and full orchestras. It was like broadway!

Also heard her sing at the GIANTS game. I’m a huge NY Yankees and Giants fan! Nikki too loves baseball games. Did you know she and Zac went to several games when they were in Toronto to watch the Blue Jays in their free time?

I am getting the rockin’ locker gift set for sure!!!

You are so lucky Angie to have seen Nikki in person!

Sounds amazing Angie..and damn you saw her at the Giants game too?! I was so mad we never got any footage from that *cough JJ* Yes I am aware that she and Zac went to Blue Jay games in Toronto hehe…I have visions of the trailer they shared decked out in that mean lookin blue bird lol. Baseball is the only American sport I follow to any degree so I enjoyed that one ;)

Zac fan..great minds ;)

Nonna..of course..we’re just fans..they’ll screw us for every cent ;)

Finally, something about our girl!!! Hairspray was amazing and and gave young Hollywood to show their real talent–Nikki, Zac, Elijah, Amanda, Brittany—all a joy to watch.
And Nikki will go far, because her talent cannot be contained and soon everyont will know it.
Size isn’t what matters, it’s character

LOL you can say that again. And you know we will be waiting in line to buy it too. :P

no offense i like nikki, but i prefer vanessa, and vanessa is also a triple threat: she sings, acts, and dances, she has also modeled. but we shouldnt comparre vanessa and nikki, theyre friends and theyre both two completly different people. please dont say nikki is better, or vanessa is better, theyre both different people…

why are you bringing up Vanessa we’re not talking about her. and her being a triple threat is very debateable. and we’re here to talk about Nikki. so don’t bring up V.

Missy and Ashley…thanks…yeah, I think I’ll get the Shake and Shimmy…one part of me wants the locker one to have the “deluxe” one but then I think that the locker and tote bag will just become more clutter somewhere in the house. LOL. So, not sure if it’s worth the extra money…particularly considering the anticipation of this super dooper version. ;-) Irish - I was thinking that about the great minds…we were on the same track. :-)

I’m thinking about the cd too…might not need it…may not buy it the first day in any event like I will be buying the movie…I am going to be so unproductive on Tuesday! LOL

#181 its great that you like nikki and vanessa unlike some other people but were not talking about vanessa in here. this is all about nikki and hairspray.

Zac Fan

I know me too. all I’m going to do is watch everything on that DVD. every special feature and commentary and what not.

I admit. I’m Ashley and I’m a Hairspray-Aholic. ahahahah :D

ashley, haha I have to admit, I’m a hairspray-aholic too! Ive seen it 8 times! anyone else seen it that much?

and ill definitely be glued to my tv allllll day watching all of the hairspray extra bonus features or what not that it has.

Kourtney

in theatres? bc if so.me too. hahaha.

Can it please be the 20th yet?!

I saw it 9 times in theatres Kourtney and a fair bit besides ;) Excessive? Lol sure..but I see theatrical productions as many times too..I just call it research for my musical theatre post grad ;)

I also can’t wait to hear Elijah’s album..was very happy to hear about his record deal..well deserved. I wish Taylor Parks was getting more recognition, she’s amazing for one so young.

who cares if haters comment on this page they could do wateva they want its not its da first time a hater has ever on some1 they don’t like’s page………thanks to zac i even watched dat muvi i hated her there she was so annoyin n i hated her stupid hairstyle except at the end when it was straight……vanessa is better than her………
ZANESSA 4ever!!!!!!!!!!!

Honey! I agree! Taylor has a great voice! All the actors did in this movie!

Angie I watched that Giants game just to hear her sing and of course I didn’t hear her or see her! I was so mad!

Belle you’re retarded.

we’re talking about Nikki ok not Zac or anyone else. if you don’t like her stay in the Vanessa threads. buh bye.

ashley and irish, Haha, yeah I saw it 8 times in the theatres. and I watched it twice on illegal movie watching websites but I dont count those times. :)

and everytime I saw it I saw the movie with my friend so shes just as obsessed.

Ashley LMAO.

Ashley LMAO.

sporty spice @ 11/17/2007 at 12:51 am

I like nikki.

Now that said, next time there is a thread about you know who or her BF, I will expect those of you requesting that this thread remain about nikki only to show the same respect you want here.

Please stay of those threads unless you like them and can say something nice.

Thank You!

Nonna

hahaha I just can’t help myself. I get annoyed by Immaturity. lol. :D

Irish Carrie Kayla and all the other lovely girls from ff ICA and salute you for getting Nikki love on the first page before all the psycho ‘Zac loving’ freaks get on and ***** about how much better v is and how they ‘need’ zanessa…what they need is a reality check and a life…but i digress.

Nikki is made of amazing, she is phenomenal is every way. She’s talented and down to earth, funny, warm and beautiful…some people don’t see it but some people are deeply stupid.

Hairspray is an amazing film, everybody gives stellar performances and it deserves to clean up at the awards…although it probably won’t because life in general is a bit of a jitch.

Jared for the love of Al Roker post about Nikki more often…would it kill you to give her some of the attention warranted by her success?

Sporty

when Zac has a post. I talk about Zac looking cute or whatever. I rarely comment on his stuff anyway.

and I never comment in V’s posts. the only time I did was when people were being B*tchy to Nikki for no reason. and I complimented V on her shoes. bc they were cute.

I think calling someone retarded happens to be a bit immature ashley. Nikki fans should be able to get their points across without resorting to hurtful name calling. Next time check your conscience before opening your mouth.

whatever Narf. she was acting very immaturely. it’s not like we’re going ooohh Zac and Nikki.

we’re not even talking about him

so I don’t need to check my conscience I call it like I see it, and she didn’t even use proper grammar. or spelling. so she must be young.

still isn’t mature to call people names ashley. I call it like I see it too. You can make your point without the names. Just like I did.

ok fine. whatever. but it was still immature when we weren’t even talking about that. and we’re just discussing Nikki in this thread not someone else.

I am not going to fight with you ashley because than I would be acting immature. So I wish you goodnight and hope you never find yourself in Bellas’ position.

I’m not fighting wiht you or trying to fight with you. I won’t be in that position bc I NEVER go into posts of people I don’t care for.

You know I’ve been skimming this thread and I noticed something ironic. And that’s in the last thread that featured you-know-who, HER BOYFRIEND and Nikki a lot of Nikki’s fans comaplained “We want less of you-know-who, whose a *bleep* and more of Nikki who is a true talent.”

Amd you finally get a wish a thread devoted Nikki where her fans can praise her talents. And what do I find an inordinate amount of space on this has been devoted to discussion of you-oh heck, I’m just going to say it, to Vanessa (who’s been invited to preform at the annual Christmas benefit for the National Children’s Medical Center hosted by Dr. Phil McGraw and his wife Robin. It’s a very presigous event attended by the President and the First Lady by the way. Not bad for a no-talent *bleep* eh?). You’re either comparing to Vanessa or bashing Vanessa for no reason since this thread is about Nikki right? Anyway I just don’t understand why Nikki’s devoted fans would short change her in this manner.

Ah well, I guess it proves what I always expected it’s Baby V’s world and we just live in it. ;)

Change takes time, it’s a long hard climb.

Make love not war ;)

Rebecca..for the love of Al Roker! LMAO. Al Roker knows the truth.

Yes, Rebecca, sometimes life is a Jitch *wink*

And, for the love of Al Roker! LMAO along with Irish! Yes, Al knows the truth. In fact, he helps make it happen!

Nikki, Nikki, you’re so fine!
Nikki, Nikki, all the time!

Go Nikki!

Go Nikki!

btw - Just because someone is invited to sing somewhere, doesn’t mean they are talented. It just means they are popular. Anyone remember Jessica Simpson singing at the Kennedy Center Honours?

See, I can praise Nikki in comparison to anyone! Because she is just that made of awesome!

Irish…I’m sure Alex and Maggie would much rather make love

and I’m not going to comment on the last sentence of #207 because it would make Troy entirely too happy.

Baby ICA Nikki’s an actress and a singer, she’s recognised for her awe-inspiring talent first and that is how she wants it.

‘Leading ladies’ are ten a penny…you only need to be pretty and lucky. Real character actresses like those you mentioned are much rarer, women who give consistently powerful performances in movies worth watching more than once are truly diamonds in the rough.

Nikki might not be Hollywood’s idea of ‘perfect’

but it’s better to have a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without - confucius (sp?)

Rebecca,

Yes, Alex and Maggie would MUCH rather be making love. Maybe they are right now? Yep, I’d *bet on it*

#209 First off now you’re saying Vanessa’s popular? I thought nobody cared about her. Secondly you’re totally missing my point, why compare Nikki to ANYBODY? You wanted this thread to talk about Nikki then talk about Nikki. There is NO reason to bring anybody else up in this and bash them.

#210 Just the fact that you indirectly mention my last statement in my initial post brought a smile to my face and filled my heart with warmth. Thank you. ;)

It’s been fun jousting with you ladies but I’ve said what I came to say and that’s all I’m going say. So I must must a fond adeiu.

Sporty spice @ 11/17/2007 at 2:05 am

Who are alex and maggie and why are you discussing them in a Nikki only thread?

Jennifer

Alex and Maggie are making love
Troy and Tracy are rehearsing in the studio with the red carpet
Link’s taking Nikki for a drive in his corvette
and Zachary and Nicole are on the phone ;)

and before anybody accuses me of lunacy those were all inside jokes

Ashley, I have a HUGE PROBLEM with what you said to Fran in post #206. You said that you NEVER go into posts of people you don’t care for? Oh Really? Well, then, let me REMIND you that DO GO into Vanesa’s threads and POST NEGATIVE opinions. Here are a few examples:

From the VANESSA HUDGEN’S @ HOLLYWOOD VIDEO Thread:

185 ashley : 11/07/2007 at 3:39 pm
I love Zac/Nikki they are amazing. she’s going far in this business she’s already filming her third movie. she’s someone who is actually talented and has fame because of her talent. not of a scandal or who she’s dating

AND…..

192 ashley : 11/07/2007 at 3:48 pm
Jared!! MORE NIKKI NEWS!!!!!!!

She’s racking up a ton of awards.

AND….

197 ashley : 11/07/2007 at 3:52 pm
we like Zikki even if all they are are best friends.

too bad if you don’t like you you Zanessa lovers.

Zikki’s have to deal and we respect with your stupid name

so you need to respect the name Zikki.

AND…..

204 ashley : 11/07/2007 at 4:04 pm
Rosie Lee

Duh! you don’t see them together Nikki lives in New York not LA

also she’s been filming movies. she completed one this summer. and she’s filming one right now.

so that’s why we don’t see candids they live on opposite coasts.

she’s been doing stuff unlike Vanessa. who just shops.

AND…….

232 ashley : 11/07/2007 at 4:35 pm
ok I don’t care about Vanessa’s stupid pictures. they were in the past whatever.

but I don’t see the multi-talentedness of her. she wasn’t very good in HSM 1 or 2. in fact she was only in HSM2 for 15 minutes. I’m not really a big fan of Ashley’s but she’s the one who gets the praise in the movies.

sure she was famous but she became mostly known for her pics.
which is sad that they got out. and for the fact she dates Zac.

everyone else in the cast is getting movies done

Ashley just finished one, now she’s on tour

Lucas just finished two movies

Corbin is about to go produce and star in a film this month

Monique is going to do the dancing with the stars tour.

Zac is about to do Seventeen.

what is Vanessa doing? just working on her album. why doesn’t she do films while she’s making her album.

lots of other artists have done albums while making movies, like Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez and others.

++++ ASHLEY, I CAUGHT YOU! +++

Yes, you absolutely were on Vanessa’s thread saying very negative things about her.

I’m saddened and ashamed for you, dear. I think it is time for you to clean up your act AND start telling the truth. You have a reputation for trashing Vanessa and I’m not the only one on JJ who recognizes that.

I think my post speaks for itself, so I don’t think a response from you is appropriate. Unless, of course, you would like to apologize to us for your lack of integrity.

re 215 uh ck you get that there’s more than one Ashley on the planet right?

unless this site demands individual names in which case ignore me

Why do I feel like I’m in an episode of Recess? ;)

sporty spice @ 11/17/2007 at 2:50 am

Same Attitude = Same Ashley

CK #215 - Considering that I know at least half a dozen Ashleys, and several of them being fans of Nikki, how can you possibly say that all of these posts were done by one person, never mind the Ashley who posted here tonight. As a matter of fact, there was more than one Ashley in this conversation.

Second, holy crap! You actually wasted all that time and energy to go back through old posts and gather supposed evidence to “catch” somebody!

Have you stopped taking your medication?

Anyways, Rebecca:

Remember, Effie and Nickels are in the fiction section, hiding from Glen and Lynn!

Yay for Nikky getting her own post on JJ!! Totally love her…shes so talented:) And Hairspray is the best movie of the year….def buying the DVD on Tuesday! I loved this song/deleted scene…made sense to cut it…but still…

Yes, Jess! Isn’t it wonderful that Nikki finally gets her own post! Let’s hope that JJ posts a lot more about her upcoming movies, and all of the award niminations she’ll get this season! Yay for Nikki!

stupid ashley at jJ! now i know u keep bash on v! u know how many things abt v? syaing her didnt do nothing. yea rite! u don even know her! she’s been working for her 2nd album. dec goin to DC performing! wtf u know abt her!

Definitely! Nikki doesn’t get nearly enough coverage.

Sorry I only read English @ 11/17/2007 at 4:14 am

225 - Could you please rewrite your post. I really have no idea what you said.

I WAS TALKING ABT ASHLEY TAT POST COMMENTS AT JJ! IF U ARE SO STUPID TO UNDERSTAND WAT I WRITE OK THATS FINE!

love bbv , ASH AND NIKKI @ 11/17/2007 at 4:19 am

ASHLEY: IF U DON LIKE V JUST KEEP QUIET! DON SAY SHE DONE NOTHING, WHILE OTHER CAST DOIN THINGS, HOW THE FCK U KNOW ABT HER, SHE’S BBEEN WORKING ON HER 2ND ALBUM AND GOIN TO PERFORM AT DC. IF U ARE A FAN OF NIKKI TRY TO RESPECT HER AND HER FRIENDS

Finally Nikki gets her own post on JJ!
Irish flove your post. Everything is said!
I love this girl, she’s amazing, beautiful and very talented. I hope she’ll have a big career. But Hollywood is a cruel world and who knows what will happen. I fear that she will only get the role of the fat girl in movies. I think she will have to lose weight to get other roles. But I trust our Nikki, she is made of win!
I hope we’ll see more posts about her Jared ;)

rosielee9 @ 11/17/2007 at 7:30 am

45#How on earth is Nikki making Zac become a man? He’s doing that all by himself with what he choose’s to do with his life and he’s also a male so of course he’s going to become a man it’s called growing up, and that has nothing to do with Nikki it’s a natural progression in life.

rosielee9 @ 11/17/2007 at 7:51 am

Perhap’s Vanessa is just happy to be working on her album and her other endorsment’smaybe she will do anothermovie apart from HSM but why should she rush into one so that people can just say more nasty things about her,if she’s happy doing more music than acting that’s her choice.

All I will say about the Zac/Nikki thing is that yes theymaybe be friend’s but asfor anything else no, if Zac wanted to be with Nikki that much he would find a way and sowould Nikki. Nobody make’s Zac stay with Vanessa or go out place’s with her he does it through choice, and asfor the looks that Zac give’s Nikki they have been while they’ve been promoting Hairspray and nothing outside of that, the look’s he and Vanessa give each other are totally different.

I’ve nothing against Nikki and don’t see why her size should be a problem,I’ve seen clips of Hairspray and she does a great job and looks like she was having fun so good for her, and Ihope she contiune’s to do well, but as for anything between her and Zac other than friendship I just don’t see it.

I am going to buy Hairspray as I have always liked Joh Travolta and it look’s like a great movie to watch.

hi hi (zanessa fan) @ 11/17/2007 at 8:21 am

Oh, I thought it was about Zac.

Well…finally Nikki gets her own post here!!! I love her!!! She’s sooo talented, down to earth and she will really go far in Hollywood!!!
And for those who don’t like Nikki, I’m pretty sure all of you are fans of…I don’t want to mention her name…ENOUGH for the negative critisms on Nikki!!!!! She has been criticized a lot on this site already !!!!! If you don’t like her then DON”T come here…PERIOD!!! Is that clear???
I hope JJ will feature more articles,news on Nikki…

TRAVOT!!! WHICH MEANS TRAVOLTA and did john travolta die? and just to let u all know that zac efron said that he likes chunky girls and vanessa is chunky too so u have porbs but i personally just dont like b/c of her personallity so but also i really dont think shes gonna get anywhere most ppl dont like her and i think shes a really bad actress and singer so she should just go back to being no one.

Love Nikki!
Love Zac!

Great breakout movie for both of them! Kids and adults alike enjoyed it!!! A super production!

Tried to watch HSM#2 just to see what all the hype was about. Hated it….so cheesy, …the acting was jut so-so. It could not compare to the cast and total package HAIRSPRAY brings to the big screen. Great for little kids and tweens so Disney will make lots of money but I could not stand watching another minute of it. Let’s face it, without the heartthrob, Efron, the movie would be a flop. He is the catalyst for it’s success. That guy is gonna be very rich by the end of this deal.

I am a Hairspray junkie and found Nikki adorable in the part of Tracy. What a great talent for such a little dynamo. Can’t wait to buy the DVD.

ugh.same people here all the damn time.

The girl can sing,that’s a fact.

omg!! i can wait to seee this!!

So, where’s Ashley disappeared to? LOL, sucks to be outed huh?

Also, opinions are pretty much everyone’s own.. nobody can win here, because, thank god, he gave us our own thoughts and opinions. Some people will agree with each other, some won’t. There’s no way that you can force someone into the same thinking as yours.

With that being said, if you say HSM sucked, fine, that’s your opinion. If you say Nikki is more talented than Vanessa, that’s your opinion too. But to debate on these threads in such a hateful manner is unproductive. If I were Nikki or Vanessa, I’d certainly be laughing at you all.

And if I were Nikki or Vanessa, to the person that called someone else “retarded” and the other person that made fun of someone just because of their writing… I’d seriously would not want you for a fan! Have you guys ever met or know anyone that’s retarded? It’s a disease that some poor person is born with. It’s not a choice. It’s a sad thing for those people around a mentally disabled person. That’s an ugly word to call someone and BAD FORM at best!! And to make fun of people because of poor grammar… give me a break. There are tons of intelligent people that have had to work hard at writing or their vocabulary.

This thread is full of immature people… except for the likes of Troy, Narf, Zac Fan, ck and for the rest that are mature enough to converse in respectful manner. :)

I know that but my point is that even though people live opposite parts of a country if they really want to be together and make a relactionship work then they take the time and energy to put into a relactionship for it to happen no matter where they live.

And if Zac is so unhappy to be with Vanessa why the hell would he stay with her, go on vacation with her, spend his birthday with her, go other place’s with her, that’s a hell of a lot of time to spend with someone you don’t want to.

And I dare say that Nikki go’s shopping since when was that a crime, if you don’t know Vanessa personally then how do youknow how she spends her day and what she does we only see what the press take which is only a small part of her daily routine.

So she’s not done another movie since HSM2 she did plenty before and long before Nikki did, but Vanessa also has a singing contract so just maybe she wants to concentrate on that for a while and do the odd movie here and there, that’s her choice and nobody else’s.

This post isn’t even about Vanessa, so can we please all refrain from talking about her? I get there are people who like her than those that don’t. Arguing about that here isn’t going to change anyone’s opinion. Neither is going back and forth about the ZV vs ZN thing, so can we just agree to disagree. And if you are not a fan of Nikki than don’t post here. There are plenty of V posts to be posting on.

Anyway, I really want to know more information about her upcoming projects. I wonder what her album will sound like. Will Queen Sized be out before Harold?

And I can’t wait to see all of the special features on the DVD. I have been waiting for the DVD ever since the movie hit theaters. :P

And thanks again to Jared for finally giving Nikki her own post. I’ll restate that it’s about time.

Is this all about Vanessa or Hairspray and Nikki. As they would say to Nikki fans, get off this site if you don’t like her. They are so hateful and seem to thrive on feuding with people who do not share their opinions.

#241, did you ever hear the saying: “Less is better”? Didn’t think so.

Love Nikki,her BFF Zac and Hairspray.

I find it interesting that the Nikki fans here are asking people who bash her not to post here, yet some of them are the same people who go to Vanessa or Zanessa threads and bash Vanessa…like VanessaGarcia, lp, irish, etc.

I’d like to say “turnabout is fair play”, but some of us Vanessa fans are not like that. So I’ll not say anything nasty like the Nikki fans post on Vanessa. I think they are both talented newcomers, with very different styles. There is no reason to bash either one. We all have different tastes, and we’re entitled to them. So let’s stop bashing on each other’s threads and live peacefully, OK???

Well put #244. I totally agree with you. We can all express support for our favorites and still be accepting and civil to one another.

*****************************************************************
#245 Doris… like you did to post #241? Don’t be a hyporcite, that was just as rude a comment. If you had it in you to be civil, you swallow your pride and apologize, doubt it though…

Let me remind you of your rudeness…

“#241, did you ever hear the saying: “Less is better”? Didn’t think so.”

that’s your #243 post… Doesn’t sound pleasant, nor civil or accepting of one another… LOL H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E! :)

Not all Nikki fans go on posts about Vanessa and bash her. I personally don’t anyway. The way I see it if you don’t like someone then don’t go into a topic about them. It’s as simple as that. The only time I’ve said anything bad about V is when people are bashing Nikki in favor of V. Sorry but that warrants the clawa coming out. Anyway I don’t see why this has to be an either/or thing.

Nikki is amazing and I think we’ve only scratched the surface of what she is capable of. Can’t wait to see more from her.

244) why do you keep saying I bash Vanessa I don’t!!!! I have said I am not fan but I don’t say derogatory or mean things about her. Now that I have said that I am not going to focus on Vanessa because this thread isn’t about her it’s about Nikki.
Nonna yes QueenSized will be out before Harold because QS is going to be on lifetime in Jan. and I think Harold comes out sometime in the middle or end of next year.
I can’t wait to see what else comes Nikki’s way. She really is very talented.

People saying somrthing bad about one does not warrent negative comments about the other. Thus the saying two wrongs don’t make a right.

If someone bashes the person you admire, be it Nikki, Vanessa, or any other celebrity, you CAN defend them without insulting another celebrity. Why?, because the celeb you end up bashing is not responsible for those bashing your favorite.

And unless these celebrities have done something to you personally, there really is no reason to bash any of them in the first place.

As I said earlier, promote peace not hate.

PEACE LOVE DAYDREAMS! haha

Love Nikki, only 3 more days!

this movie is awesome!!! nikki and zac are so good together and i love amanda bynes and elijah kelly!

Sorry, lp, but I do see you on Vanessa threads saying how you see no chemistry, etc. I see all of you make comments, and they’re not necessarily bashing. But it’s obvious you are all Nikki fans, and want to see Zac with her instead, so you always have something negative to say about them together. You can deny it all you want, but I have a pretty good memory for names, and I’ve seen you all before. The difference with most of us “good” Vanessa fans, is, we don’t say negative things about Nikki…even if we think them, cause we’re not rude and disrespectful.

Awesome, I can’t wait until January then. :)

Darn it why can’t I be one of those lucky people who got the DVD early.

I am looking forward to hearing Nikki and Adam’s commentary.

Go Sox-um when have I ever bashed Vanessa? I have posted in different threads yes re: Zac but I don’t believe I ever mentioned V.

Good luck to everyone at the AMA’s ;)

253) that is my opinion I don’t see the chemistry between them that all of you Zanessa fans do I am sorry but that is how I feel. Still that doesn’t mean I am bashing her and you are wrong there are alot of Zanessa fans that bash Nikki repeatedly because of what she looks like. I have never said anything bad about Vanessa if I don’t see the chemistry I just don’t see the chemistry that doesn’t mean I am being negative about her. I have also said since you seem to have such a good memory that if Vanessa is who Zac wants than so be it that is up to him who he chooses to be with. Yes, I do think Nikki and Zac are better together but again that is my opinion. What I think and feel about the situation is not going to make a difference to Zac, Nikki or Vanessa. So, stop lumping me in the group of haters that bashes Vanessa because I have never said I hated her just wasn’t a fan.

Know what? I don’t have the time to go back to the old threads and look for your posts. But I obviously remember you, or why would I mention you? Like I said, you may not say anything directly negative about Vanessa, but you gush about Nikki with Zac, even though they’re not a couple. I’m not saying you shouldn’t have an opinion….but saying it on a Nikki thread is just a nicer way to express how you feel. Look, I’m not trying to make trouble….I like Nikki. AND I like Zac and Vanessa too. I’m a fan of musicals and thrilled they’ve all been a part of bringing them into the limelight again! But I have seen you on other threads, and knew right away by your comments who you were fans of; that’s all. Peace and love to NIkki fans….can’t wait til Tuesday!

This is not the vanessa-basher Ashley guys, this is the I-Like-both-but-perfer-V Ashley

257) I am not trying to argue with you either and your right saying I like Nikki and Zac better together on a Nikki thread is alot better but how many Nikki threads have you seen? I think everybody can have there own opinion about things as long as it is not done in a mean or degrading way which I never do. I can’t wait for tuesday as well. Glad you enjoyed Hairspray!!!!

lp, the white flag is waving….here’s to Hairspray, and to Zac’s success! At least we have those things in common! :o)

260) I am waving the white flag also lol and your right here’s to the success of Nikki and Zac and Vanessa.

I agree with go sox actually. And it’s not just Nikki fans who bash Vanessa, it’s Ashley fans too. The sad part is that most Vanessa fans don’t even bash those two stars, whereas Nikki and Ashley fans feel the need to bash Vanessa in order to make their celebrity look better.

I find it very irritating when Nikki and Ashley fans insist that people should not bash their favorite celebrity, yet turn around and bash someone else’s. It’s hypocritical, stupid and unnecessary, and it makes me want to bash their celebrity in return, just to show them how it feels. I don’t like Nikki or Ashley, but I never go out of my way to bash them, no matter how much I may want to. If Vanessa fans can restrain themselves from bashing Ashley and Nik, then why can’t you guys?

And I find it almost disrespectful when people insist that Nikki and Zac, or Ashley and Zac, make a better couple when Zac is obviously with the girl of his choice. And since none of you are Zac, and none of you know Zac, you don’t know who he wants, and I wish people would stop acting like they do. He’s with Vanessa, and no one else but him has the right to say who he’s better off with.

Here’s to the white flag..and flags of every colour for that matter ;)

Peace & love people, Peace & love.
