Eagle-eyed fans have spotted a massive A-list actor in a wild music video from a popular 90s band. Jason Statham, known for his action roles in films like The Transporter, can be seen dancing in leopard-print briefs in The Shamen's 1992 video for Comin' On Strong.
The Shamen, formed in Aberdeen in 1985, were a chart-topping electronic dance act known for hits like Ebeneezer Goode and the album Boss Drum. In the video for Comin' On Strong, Statham appears as a background dancer, gyrating behind lead vocalist Mr. C.
Social media users have expressed surprise and amusement at the discovery. One Facebook user called it 'Jason's finest performance,' while a Reddit comment read: 'Okay. Alright. I see you, Jason. A whole lot of you.' Another user noted that Statham also danced in Erasure's 1994 video for Run to the Sun.
Fans praised Statham's work ethic, with one comment saying: 'This guy's the definition of hustle, diver, dancer, model, martial artist, actor...legend.' Another wrote: 'A job is a job. Work is work. Nothing wrong with that. Respect.'
The Shamen's founding members included Colin Angus, Derek McKenzie and Keith McKenzie. Rapper Mr. C joined as a full-time member in 1991, propelling the band to household name status in the 1990s rave scene.
