According to Hayley Podschun's (who plays Tammy in the Hairspray film) Movie Set Diary on Broadway.com, she informs that there are some new songs in Hairspray. One of them that we already know about is "Ladies' Choice" sung by Link Larkin (Zac Efron) which replaces the Broadway version's The Madison. Another replaces "Nicest Kids in Town (reprise)" is called "The New Girl in Town" sung by the Councilettes (including Podschun and Brittany Snow who plays Amber Von Tussle). Check out her diary at:

deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.
Derek Mahon

I can almost guarantee that the "Nicest Kids reprise' is still in the film. I am pretty sure it was in the footage I saw a few weeks ago. So I dont think "The new girl in town" replaces anything.
Am i wrong or in The Roots book isn't there mention of a song called "The new girl in town" which was dropped from the musical after it had been tossed around from the white girls, black girls etc...
but this is cool, I actually hadn't heard that this was added to the movie.

That was an exciting read.
I really hope this film is fabulous because if it ends up sucking my will to live like Phanotm of the Opera and Rent did, I'll cry.
