"Hairspray" became the talk of the town in 2007 when it set the record for the biggest opening for a movie musical. Although the record was later broken by the release of "Mamma Mia!", the movie went on to be the fourth highest grossing musical in U.S. cinema history. Its commercial success soon led New Line Cinema to ask writer John Waters to pen "Hairspray 2: White Lipstick" despite the fact that the original film was based on the Broadway musical. While the first movie delves around early 60's music and highlights on the racial segregation, the sequel enters the late '60s era of music and takes a look at the British Invasion. There will also be 17 brand new songs from Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman to be expected.
