disappointed but not surprised the coins are going to the naacp smh

I don't know anything about the NAACP really (I'm Canadian). Why is it disappointing that they're benefiting from this?

[analievelyn]

not nearly progressive enough AND they already got the coins. It's the smaller, grassroots orgs that need and deserve more support, love, and $$$

[howthedaysounds]

Aah okay, yeah I get that. Thank you :)

I do agree it's disappointing that the smaller organizations aren't being given as much attention by these fundraising campaigns.

I may watch it - I did watch Hairspray the other week. I really only remember the Diana Ross/Michael Jackson version, but I think I may have watched this one on TV in 2015, I cannot remember for sure.

They should stream Grease Live, the best live musical

I was thinking that last night when they aired Grease the movie on CBS.

It's a recording of the 2015 Live show.
