MÖTLEY CRÜE Drummer Makes Cameo Appearance In KEITH ANDERSON Video
September 17, 2005MÖTLEY CRÜE drummer Tommy Lee makes a cameo appearance in the new video from country-rocker Keith Anderson. The clip of "XXL", by award-winning director Trey Fanjoy and produced by Don Lepore for Picture Vision, incorporates multiple vivid dramatic scenes interwoven with energy-charged live performance footage of the Arista Nashville recording artist and his band. In one scene, Lee is surrounded by glamorous nurses and takes on an OBGYN (Obstetrics and Gynecology) role and delivers a baby boy as he lip-syncs, 'Oh, mama, he's a XXL!!' In another vignette, Anderson joins three gorgeous southern belles and one ugly humongous steer with a huge Texas flag in the background. Former Tennessee Titans football celebrity Eddie George takes on a "youthful" role and joins some pre-teen football players in another hilarious "XXL" scene.
"The 'XXL' video treatment nails exactly — and even beyond — the vision that I had for the song back when I co-wrote it with Bob DiPiero," exudes Anderson. "It carries on the spirit of my album, 'Three Chord Country and American Rock & Roll', by pairing an Oklahoma country boy with a die-hard rocker, Dr. Feelgood himself, Tommy Lee of MÖTLEY CRÜE! Then, for added flavor," he laughingly adds, "we played up the sports theme in the song's lyrics by creating a cameo for football legend Eddie George — and, of course, to make it a well-balanced video, we had to cast plenty of beautiful actresses!"
Filmed in Nashville on September 11, Keith Anderson's newest video event is the highly-anticipated follow-up to his No 1 debut music video, "Pickin' Wildflowers". According to CMT (Country Music Television),Anderson has been the only male debut artist to land a No 1 video on their network this year.
Although a specific video airdate is unconfirmed at this time, the final edit of "XXL" is expected within two to three weeks.
