Nikki Blonsky still in touch with Amanda

In an interview with Broadway.com, Nikki Blonsky, currently making her New York debut on Broadway in Love Loss and What I Wore, mentioned that she is still in touch with her Hairspray costars, including Amanda.

Were you upset that plans for a Hairspray sequel were scrapped?

I love Hairspray so much. It’s just magical to me. I would just die to work with John Travolta again. We’re very close, and I still speak to him all the time. Same with Amanda Bynes and Zac Efron, which I know girls will like to hear. It was such a fun, life-changing experience for all of us.

Maybe she can convince Amanda to make a comeback?!
