Harry's hairstyles are fantastic - HUGE - her last hairdo is in the form of an enormous loving cup. The van Tussles are for segregation - that would be Sonny Bono, running for office, his wife Harry (on stage the former Miss Baltimore Crabs, in the film Miss Soft Crab). Corny Collins, who is the Baltimore Dick Clark, would like nothing better than to integrate his television show, but blacks are only permitted to dance one night a week.

'Hairspray' is highly exaggerated in parts, which makes it extra funny, and Waters captures '60s Baltimore beautifully. 'Hairspray' has now been immortalized on Broadway as an enormous, energetic, fabulously entertaining musical which kept the conceit of a man playing Tracy's mother, again with great success. Ricki Lake plays Tracy Turnblad, a short, chubby teen with big hair who loves to dance in 'Hairspray,' a 1988 John Waters film starring Divine, Deborah Harry, Sonny Bono, Ruth Brown, Jerry Stiller, and Mink Stole.
