My name is SheBit and I'm a cradlesnatcher

We saw Hairspray on saturday night, and I got hold of the soundtrack to listen to on sunday, so I now have several songs stuck in my head

19 is fine! I do quite want to see the film, in part because the national enquirer, usually the home of bitching about female slebs with anything less that 100% unfeasably perfect bodies, keep raving about how hot the girl in it is, despite her being not a perfect size zero at all!

[shebit]

She's very far from size zero - she's decidedly podgy. The whole film is about what you do being important, not what you look like (whether it be your size or your colour).

I don't fancy actors under 30 (other than the Elf, who is now 30, and Heath Ledger). The average age of my actor crushes is 40+, so 19 is cradle-snatching by my standards!

19 is leagal and old enough to drink, is therefore fine.

[shebit]

Ah, but he's a 'merkin, so he can't drink at home. And he lives with his parents.

It's just *fantastic*! I saw it last week and went straight to Asda to get a few things and picked up the sound track.

Must go listen again!

I am exceedingly sneaky and therefore have the whole soundtrack without the annoyance of having to rip it from the cd myself or, you know, pay for it.

Wouldn't you love to see Cyclops and Wolverine having a sing off?

More than I should ever admit to.

And I found Hairspray equal parts offensive, tacky and awesome. I left confused, but grinning. Some bits were pure genius, but my brain kept freaking out about Travolta as a woman - it'd kind of accept it for a bit, and then spazz out...

But the music was pure, unadulterated awesome.

The tacky was kitsch and the offensive was usually intentionally so, to make a point about the way things were.

Travolta was doing the Dr Evil, high pitched voice (auditioning to be a Pepperpot, perhaps?), but then when he sang it was his usual singing voice again, which was a little odd.

The music was indeed awesome

I keep hearing good things about Hairspray - seems I should go watch it. :) I also want to se the musical of the X-men... XD

[shebit]

X-Men: The Musical seems a popular idea *g*
