I hope I can stay awake until then.

Just got back from the movie, she was great!

Did you go to the premiere or just a screening?

Just a screening. I've actually never seen the show, but I thought the movie was really fun and charming, especially in the middle of a summer where every other week I see some monstrously huge, overlong action movie.

So we have to sit through the un-funny antics of Adam Sandler until Nikki comes on.

Seriously, I don't know how more of this I can take before she comes on.

EDIT: On now. She looks so different! Updated On: 7/11/07 at 12:17 AM

Okay, I so I saw this thread JUST in time to tune in to watch it! THANK YOU BROADWAYWORLD!!!

PS: I work at a Coldstone, too! I'm really sad she didn't get to finish the combination of the "Tracy Turnblad" - it's got to be more than Cotton Candy and sprinkles!

she was great. Gonna be a big star. I could totally see her becoming the next Rikki Lake. so impressed with her ability to be her fun self when you know she's gotta be 'omg! i'm on the tonight show next to adam sandler! I find it ironic that the Tonight Show had on a gay friendly guest (Nikki) on the same show as a guy selling a homophobic movie (Adam).

What was with those earrings?
She seems just adorable.
Does Adam Sandler have a big Butt now?
He used to be buffed.

Aw! She was so cute. I can't wait to see the movie. Is anyone trying to go to the screening in NY on Monday?

I am. :)

At the AMC, right?

Yup. How early are you going to line up? I remember trying to see the Rent movie screening and I didnt even come close to getting in.

Bobby Maler, have you seen "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry?" The only reason I'm asking is, it strikes me that a lot of gay people work at Universal and I wonder if they would really release a homophobic film? I haven't seen it but I know that GLAAD has vetted the film and has no objections and friends of mine who saw screening said it's actually gay-inclusive. There seems to be a highly political campaign on the internet to screw this film but maybe it's better to SEE it before we pee on it.

Oh, and Nikki Blonsky is adorable!

She didn't seem nervous to me. She is adorable. And then, Adam Sandler had to keep on interrupting to make it all about him.

I can't stand him and his "gay" story wasn't very funny at all.

Once again, in re-telling her story about submitting a "home-made video" to the HAIRSPRAY casting people, she left out the part where she already had an agent, headshots, resume, etc.
