JOHN TRAVOLTA looks to have another movie hit on his hands – as a fat woman.

He and co-stars of movie musical HAIRSPRAY, in which Travolta cross-dresses as EDNA TURNBLAD, received a five minute standing ovation at the ShoWest Convention in Las Vegas on Wednesday after guests were shown footage from the film.

Travolta joked, “We may be onto something. I think the fat make-up worked.”

The film also features MICHELLE PFEIFFER, QUEEN LATIFAH and newcomer NICOLE BLONSKY, who also attended the ShoWest cinema owners event.
