dove and kristin are the perfect duo for mother/daughter roles since they were in descendants before this!

Dove has got these perfect teenage facial expressions. All the eyerolls, the huffs, the smirks. Amazing.

dove has this old school voice that fits perfectly with this type of music and she is perfect in amber

Dove is so lucky to get to work with Kristin Chenoweth so much

The little detail of Penny not knowing how to pose at the end always cracks me up.

I think Dove has the gift for the musical theatre world! She should focus on it

I will never be able to get over how happy Dove looks in this video. Ariana and Maddie are trying to be assertive and convincing (really good actors of teenage girls in this situation), but Dove is just a smiley baby! She's just adorable and she's having so much fun while the other girls are trying to stay in character. It literally makes my heart S W E L L seeing all her silly faces!

I love how you can seamlessly see Ariana tripping on her lamp 😅 you can hear her react to it and see that the lamp is only a bulb on her next scene

Can we just talk about those runs that Maddie and Dove do during the second verse when they sing "bow" and "how" respectively? That's seriously good

It's immensely cool how the 3 moms won a combined 7 Tony Awards!

I love how Dove sang “Watch me fly” IT WAS AMAZING!

How is no one commenting on how good Maddie's performance as Tracy? She did such a great job and I feel like she's not getting the recognition that she deserves

FUN FACT: This is the edited version of the song from the DVD. On the night of the actual broadcast, the lighting crew hit a slight technical difficulty towards the start of the final verse, causing Maddie Baillio to get plunged into darkness. For the DVD, they edited in footage from an earlier recorded rendition of the song to help make the glitch less noticeable. If you look closely from 3:10 - 3:25, you'll notice that Tracy is not nearly as well lit as Penny or Amber, and you can actually see the spotlight pan over to her at 3:23. The actual broadcast also has a couple other glitches throughout the evening, including a brief moment during "Good Morning Baltimore" where Maddie's microphone shorted out for a couple seconds, but I honestly didn't even notice until I read about it later in an article because I was already enjoying it so much. As the title of this channel states: The show MUST go on!

It’s actually crazy thinking this was from nearly half a decade ago 😫

dove was made to play amber 😍

notice how everyone's only talking about dove and ariana... it's kinda disappointing, this girl, Maddie I believe her name is, did an amazing job, but isn't getting the recognition she deserves

I didn't know I needed Dove and Ariana in a song together.

MADDIE has such a great voice, so professional and really meant for musical theatre!

Seeing Dove Cameron dance is just refreshing....

This is one of my most favourite songs from this musical

I love Dove’s voice so much omggg, it’s very clear. They all did great!

do y'all hear Ariana knocking the lamp over lol 2:00

I NEED Dove to play Glenda in Wicked one dayyyy

Having the girls isolated from each other kills the song. It works best on stage with them dancing together.

They’re all wonderful solo! Problem with that is, nobody’s willing to take the vocal back seat so they sound horrible in unison.

Love Dove’s facial expressions she’s like a ball of sunshine 🥰🥰

Dove and Kristen being the perfect mother and daughter once again🤣🥰

I was disappointed that Ariana didn’t use her theatre voice. Although her voice is very beautiful it sounds out of place because she is singing in a more pop tone but the others are singing in their theatre voice (I know she did musical theatre but clearly she must’ve lost that voice).

1:32 is my favourite part:) her voice just fits so well

1:33 I love this part so much

I love how much fun Dove is having in this. Always smiling

I love that all the comments are about dove when I expected to be about ariana

Collen ballingers fav part 1:34

Am I the only one who likes to sing along to this song and pretend I'm in the musical??

I always love dove cameron’s part here in this song

Dove literally looks like a barbie doll she's so beautiful

Stop, stop telling me what to do-o Don't, don't treat me like a child of two-o No, I know that you want what's best Please, but mother please give it a rest … Stop, don't, no Please Stop, don't, no Please Stop, don't, no Please Mama, I'm a big girl now … Once upon a time when I was just a kid You never let me do just what the older kids did But lose that laundry list of what you won't allow 'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now … Once upon a time I used to play with toys But now I'd rather play around with older boys So if I get a hicky please don't have a cow 'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now … Ma, I gotta tell you that without a doubt I get my best dancing lessons from yo-ou You're the one who taught me how to twist and shout Because you shout non-stop and you're so twisted to-o Ooh … Once I used to fidget 'cause I just sat home But now I'm just like Gidget, and I gotta get to Rome So say arrivederci, toodle-loo, and ciao 'Cause mama I'm a big girl now, whoa … Stop, don't, no Please Stop, don't, no Please Stop, don't, no Please Mama, I'm a big girl now … Hey mama Say mama … Once upon a time I was a shy young thing Could barely walk and talk so much as dance and sing But let me hit that stage I wanna take my bow 'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now … Whoa, once upon a time I used to dress up Ken But now that I'm a woman I like bigger men And I don't need a Barbie doll to show me how 'Cause mama I'm a big girl now, ooh … Ma, you always taught me what was right from wrong And now I just wanna give it a try Mama, I'm been in a nest for far to long So please give a push and mama watch me fly Watch me fly … Show off … Some day I will meet a man you won't condemn And we will have some kids and you can torture them But let me be a star before I take that vow 'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now, whoa … Mama, I'm a big girl now Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Mama, I'm a big girl Ooh, such a big big girl (woo) … I'm a big girl now, whoa (Stop, don't, no, please) (Stop, don't, no, please) whoa (Stop, don't, no, please) Mama, I'm a big girl now

I just watched Dove the whole time

The ending of this song, just gets me. All of their voices blend well together. I didn’t realize how much I liked Doves voice until now.

Couldn't believe they cut this from the film and put it in the ending credits instead.😖

One of the catchiest songs in this musical. I wonder why this was excluded in the movie.

I Like how tanner from the teen beach movie is in the background in 2:29

I’m sorry, Ariana’s final pose kills me 😂

I come here bearing no biases for or against this cast, and I gotta say, they did a great job! My ears already super accustomed to the original broadway cast so usually other renditions sound off to me, but they did great. Dove also really sold it to me with her facial expressions (aside from the singing, which she nailed), and she even made Amber more likable than usual. Nice job.

This was the best live musical they ever did. The talent was unmatched and everyone fit their roles so well. I love revisiting it.

I love that one of the mother just walks away while hairspraying a DOLL

i love how ambers mom secretly likes the song unlike the other moms

Dove Cameron is really talented - I never even heard of her until I saw the trailer for Schmigadoon, and she's sooooo good. She's FUNNY. A beautiful girl with great comedic ability is not always that easy to find! It's all the little things she adds, like the funny head turn in that one part. She's so good, I'm really impressed. I didn't even look at the other two, sorry to say.

Dove Cameron using her Liv Roonye voice from "Liv and Maddie" and Ariana Grande using her Cat Valentine voice from "Victorious" is so cute

I think we can all agree that Hairspray LIVE was the best live show done by any network so far! It was SOO good!!!!!!!!!!

Dove's voice is so beautiful!

There's something satisfying about how Dove Cameron moves at 0:15

Andrea Martin, Kristin Chenoweth and Harvey Fierstein showing the children how it's done.

“LYRICS” stop telling me what to do (Don't) don't treat me like a child of two (Know) I know, that you want what's best (Please) but mother, please, give it a rest!! Once upon a time when I was just a kid You never let me do, just what the older kids did But lose that laundry list of what you won't allow 'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now Once upon a time, I used to play with childhood toys But now I'd rather play around with older boys So, if I get a hickey, please don't have a cow 'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now Ma, I gotta tell you that without a doubt I get my best dancing lessons from you You're the one who taught me how to twist and shout Because you shout non-stop and you're so twisted too Once I used to fidget 'cause I just sat home But now I'm just like Midget and I gotta get to Rome So say, arrivederci, toodle-loo and ciao 'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now Oh, oh Stop, don't, no, please Stop, don't, no, please Stop, don't, no, please Mama, I'm a big girl now (Hey mama, say mama) Once upon a time I was a shy young thing Could barely walk and talk so much as dance and sing But let me hit that stage, I wanna take my bow ('Cause mama, I'm a big girl now) Whoa, once upon a time I used to dress up Ken But now that I'm a woman, I like bigger men And I don't need a Barbie doll to show me how 'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now Ma, you always taught me what was right from wrong And now I just want to give it a try Mama, I've been in the nest for far too long So, please give a push, and mama watch me fly, watch me fly (Show off) Someday I will meet a man you won't condemn And we will have some kids, and you can torture them But let me be a star before I take that vow ('Cause mama, I'm a big girl now) oh, oh-oh (Mama, I'm a big girl) hey, hey, hey (Mama oh, I'm a big girl) (Ooh, such a big, big girl) (I'm a big girl now)

Dove and Kristin are my favorite ❤❤❤❤🙌🙌🙌🙌

I pray we get a official recording of the stage show, this whole show felt flat without audience reaction

I remember when the full musical was shown on this channel! Good times :)

Let's be honest, Harvey back in those pin curls was perfection

Ari looks so cute

Harvey remembered those dialogues from that song by heart, seeing as he’s been Edna before

Dove and Kristin did it the best

0:44 Penny's mom has a late and loud "stop" and totally notices lol

I love the dress dove is wearing omggg

2:43 I feel like this part would be a tad bit funnier if Penny sang it. 😏

Dove is flawless 🤩🤩

Definitely my favorite song from Hairspray!

Dove & Kristin look like they're having a great time lol

I did not expect to see Harvey Fierstein, what a pleasant surprise!

I love this song so much but I was so disappointed that Ariana went for her more pop-y singing throughout the entire music instead of going back to her Broadway singing. It kind of ruined it for me. With all the songs not just this one

Ariana and dove. Both have amazing voices so glad they got to do this thing together

Why does Penny's mom sound like Mrs Crocker from the Jimmy Neutron TV show on Nickelodeon LMFAO😂😂😂😂

90% of the comments: Dove she did really good

They slayed so hard in this

Dove is actually so good! It's ridiculous of easy she makes this look, and her voice is so powerful!

Dove's live performances always amaze me.

dove is such a good performer

All their voices go great together ❤️

Sang this song in high school choir, one of my favorites ❤️

2:09 I don’t know much about Ariana but I have to say she is adorable in this 💕

All 3 of these actresses are so amazing and with their singing voice they are unstoppable!

wow their voices are so lovely

Ariana grande and dove Cameron both have great voices

This song is pure happiness!

the fact that dove did this in heals 😩

I was disappointed that they didn't include this song in the 2007 movie. I love this song!

I’ve always admired Dove! But her vocals is amazing and shows she has a range 🥲

its how the phrases rhyme and it still makes sense with the theme of the song for me....so underrated

This is my favourite musical of all time.

i literally love this remake it is amazing

Doveee is sooo prettyyy

I went to see this musical once, it was the… BEST. This is my favourite song, by far!

Oh dove ❤️ you are such a pleasure to watch and listen to. Such a talented young lady in so many ways. Unique voice and she’s so happy and smiley such a natural.

It’s crazy that Dove and Kristen actually look alike

So cool they were able to cast them as the moms !!!

1:09 The blending of the voices for the "Please" part's music to my ears...

One of my favorites

They all have such beautiful vocals 🙈✨💕

I LOVE the dress Dove is wearing

the fact that ari and dove were in the same show and i never saw it makes me want to cry

"You're the one who taught me how to twist and shout! Because you shout nonstop and you're so twisted too!" 😂
