Yeah! -Pam bares all

10 July 2015 - 02:02 By Leonie Wagner

Forget verses, choruses and all the other complicated music stuff. It seems all you need is a couple of repetitive lines, a catchy beat and a risqué video. Just check out former Rhythm City actress Pam Andrews' new music video Yeah, released yesterday.Following her exit from the television series to focus on her music career, this is her latest offering in which she bares all, literally.But in a time when you're only popular if you've trended on Twitter, or at least got a hashtag, this might not be the comeback she was hoping for.The singer is known for drawing inspiration from US artist Rihanna, as she did at last year's Channel O music awards when she walked the red carpet in a black mesh dress that left very little to the imagination.Yeah leaves nothing to the imagination.It is a gaudy combination of Miley Cyrus's Wrecking Ball and Nicki Minaj's Anaconda, with Andrews taking it to new levels since she's practically naked throughout the video.There is even a scene in which she dances against a wall in a solo take on Beyoncé and Shakira's Beautiful Lie.Although the chorus is catchy, it lacks lyrical content. But Andrews more than makes up for it with over-the-top sexiness.It's four minutes of her touching herself suggestively, water running over her naked body, dancing against a wall and kissing a man in a steam-filled room.The 30-year-old mother of one left Cape Town and was introduced to local audiences when she won the first reality television competition, Popstars, in 2002.After leaving the group 101 the following year to pursue an acting career, she landed roles on the e.tv soapie Backstage, then the SABC1 drama series Tshisa, and then Rhythm City.But her video barely made a splash online.It was released at midday and by 6pm had barely cracked 300 views.She tweeted: "My video out now. Please be warned its very risque - watch at your own risk."..
