in a sleepy haze, i half-watched some music videos -- without the audio -- on a flight to cleveland today. turning off the sound really hammered home how stupid some of this stuff is (or was). i started wondering who is the most shameless poesur/overactors in music? so many to choose from. here's my current top contender:

what about the billy squier one which supposedly boffed his career... the one where he is boffing the bed and air humping columns of dust motes or whatever?

i mean if one expands the definition of "shameless mugging" to include dancing around in your bedroom like an eleven year-old girl

Flying Lotus is pretty shameless considering how little he's actually doing.

ugh. Well it's the Talk Dirty To Me video, anyway.
I was thinking of Summertime by Y&T but there's so much other crap going on in that godawful video, their mugging barely registers.

I have watched Robert Palmer's Simply Irresistible in slow motion (surprisingly NOT for the models, ugh) and he made some of the most exaggerated, hilarious faces ever in that video. You just can't tell he was doing it because of the extreme quick cutting camera techniques used in the video. He mugged, it was just very subtle mugging.
