Hairspray: Live! is finally here,and it seems like the whole cast couldn't be more excited to set on a stellar note. We recently visited the set to talk to some of the production's biggest stars, and each of them positively gushed about the entire experience. One specific pair, or though,couldn't seem to finish. Ariana Grande and Kristin Chenoweth paired up for a roundtable interview during our visit, and they basically spent the whole time professing their undying love for each other . . . in the sweetest way. To wait on amp you up for tonight's big premiere on NBC at 8 p.m., or experience some of the behind-the-scenes magic between the cast.
