WELL I actually trust Mr Shaiman on this. He knows who he wants to hear HIS songs from!
That being said:
I would LOVE Patti Labelle or Aretha Franklin as Motormouth!

Patti LaBelle singing up storm in a movie - now that's inspired casting sabre...

Well, I'm glad that some people other than Queen Latifah are now being mentioned for Motormouth. She does not have the kind of voice needed to do that part justice. Let's not think about her just because she is black and was in Chicago. There is quite a big difference between "When You're Good to Mama" and "I Know Where I've Been".

"Smart! And into all those exotic mystiques -- The Kama Sutra and Chinese techniques. I hear she knows more than seventy-five. Call me tomorrow if you're still alive!"

If Jackie does get to do Prudy who would you want then for the Prison Matron & the Gym Teacher? Nice opportunity for a cameo for the teacher maybe Lily Tomlin or Rosie O'Donnell? I think Midler would be good as the prison matron. Just a thought.

My cast for the "Hairspray" film. IMHO, this cast is perfect, with no flaws at all. I know some will disagree.

Tracey Turnblad - MARISSA JARET WINOKUR or VANESSA OLIVAREZ
Edna Turnblad - HARVEY FIERSTEIN
Penny Pingleton - LACEY CHABERT
Link Larkin - JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE
Amber Von Tussle - KIRSTEN DUNST
Wilbur Turnblad - LEN CARIOU
Motormouth Maybelle - PATTI LaBELLE
Seaweed - USHER RAYMOND
Velma Von Tussle - GLENN CLOSE
Corny Collins - DONNY OSMOND
Mrs. Pingleton / Gym Teacher / Warden - ANA GASTEYER

I don't care what you guys think abotu pop stars, these guys are perfect for the roles.

On the other hand, that's just my opinion. You could be wrong

This is sad. I thought the original was good enough to be left alone.

<<<<< How cute was Johnny T in High School? No, you can't ask how I got that picture :-P

As long it has Marissa and Harvey in it, I'm fine.
