John Waters and Ricki Lake -- S**t Happens!

"Hairspray" and "Pink Flamingos" writer/director John Waters, and the original Tracy Turnblad, Ricki Lake, were at the Film Independent's Spirit Awards, where Ricki kinda gave everyone the bum's rush.


When you're a part of a cult classic -- you become immortal. Like John's mustache.

15. John Waters is a great director from Philadelphia. Yes, he's gay. Has never been in the closet. Ricki Lake has been in several of his movies including Cry Baby with Johnny Depp. He tends to use the same actors in his movies including the late Divine and Patricia Hearst among others. He is very weird, occasionally disgusting and incredibly funny. I'd call him the modern Ed Wood but John Waters knows he's making schlock and plays it all tongue-in-cheek.
