Beyoncé surprised fans on Tuesday by releasing a video for her song “Bodyguard,” which sees the Grammy-winning singer channeling actress Pamela Anderson. The video, released on Election Day, also urges people to vote in the 2024 presidential election.
The video – retitled “Beywatch” – depicts Beyoncé in a variety of settings, donning a red swimsuit styled like Anderson’s when she starred on the series, “Baywatch”. Bey also channels Anderson’s look in the 1996 film “Barb Wire,” wearing a black dress and high boots, as well as the Pam’s outfit in the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards.
The Election Day message shown in the ‘Bodyguard’ visual comes more subtly, and appears when the singer pulls out a prop pistol which releases a flag that reads “Vote.” Beyoncé had publicly endorsed Kamala Harris for president, speaking at a rally in the singer’s hometown of Houston late last month.
“Bodyguard” appears on Beyoncé’s country-themed album Cowboy Carter, which was released in March. The album features the singles “Texas Hold ‘Em,” “16 Carriages” and “II Most Wanted.”
