More 'Hairspray' in the Works

"The Insider" breaks news on a possible new 'Hairspray' movie and star Nikki Blonsky shares her thoughts on a sequel to last year's hit musical!

Nikki revealed that director John Waters is currently working on a script for the next 'Hairspray' and said she would be thrilled to once again be involved in the project. "All I have to say, on the record: I am so down... I am ready to play Tracy Turnblad again," Nikki told ET while filming on the TV show "Ugly Betty."

Nikki also said a big draw of making another 'Hairspray' would be the opportunity to possibly work again with John Travolta, who played the part of her character's mother in the first film.
