Different versions of "I Feel Pretty" lyrics

In the Broadway show version (according to the piano/vocal score) the lyrics go "I feel pretty, oh so pretty, I feel pretty and witty and bright." (rhyming with "tonight).) In the movie score version the lyrics go "I feel pretty, oh so pretty, I feel pretty and witty and gay" (rhyming with "today.") Does anybody know the exact reason or reasons why the authors decided to makes these particular changes in the movie score viersion?
