After a two-year absence, the actress is beyond words about making her comeback to the soapie. \u201cIt\u2019s a good feeling to be back on\u00a0<em>Rhythm City<\/em>\u00a0and it was also quite nice seeing some of the old cast and crew members again,\u201d says Pam.<\/p>\n<p><strong>GROWING UP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The singer explains how her time in Europe has changed her into a better person who no longer needs people\u2019s validation and how taking a step back really helped refocus her drive into enjoying her life the way it is, instead of stressing herself about being perfect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore I left for Europe, I was focused on all the wrong things. I was so obsessed with fame and wanting people to love and accept me. It really stressed me out, to the point I did not eat well because I wanted to be skinny and perfect,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStepping away from the limelight made me realise that I didn\u2019t need to be famous or become a celebrity. I just needed to love and accept myself the way I am.\u201d She adds, \u201cWhat has changed about me is that I now have a clear understanding of who I am. That\u2019s the most amazing feeling. I only do the things that make me happy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>HER VIDEO BLOG<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pam emphasises that she has been busy with her video blog on YouTube, Vlogging with Miss Andrews, but took a break from it after things were getting out of hand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, I started a YouTube video blog but then I paused it for a while because I\u2019m a very private lately. I didn\u2019t like people seeing my home and son,\u201d says Pam. \u201cAnd also there was a follower who was commenting too much about how beautiful my son is and that he also knew where I stay. So I stopped vlogging and relocated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The actress is also famous for turning the internet upside down with her semi-nude photos. She says she is comfortable in her birthday suit. \u201cMy friends always joke with me about the fact that I\u2019m so comfortable being naked,\u201d she laughs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pam Andrews sat down with Channel 24 to discuss her\u00a0 obsession with being famous Here is the full interview Pam rose to fame as a member of 101, the singing group that won the first season of\u00a0Coca-Cola Pop Stars\u00a0in 2001, and later launched her acting career as wild child Frankie in the e.tv drama series [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6031,"featured_media":6101,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[5025],"class_list":["post-6092","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment","tag-pam-andrews-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Pam Andrews opens up on her obsession with fame - Ghafla!
