One of the great joys of director Akiva Schaffer's The Naked Gun is that movie-goers will be hard-pressed to identify the funniest moment: it's so consistently hilarious that your favorite may just be the one you most recently recall. That being said, one of the most memorable scenes in the new legacyquel is definitely Pamela Anderson taking the stage in a jazz club to perform an improvised scat song she dubs "Sassafras Chicken in D." It's a side-splitting bit – and I was shocked to learn about the extreme effort that went into filming it.<br /><br />CinemaBlend's Jeff McCobb recently spoke with both Anderson and co-star Liam Neeson during the press day for The Naked Gun, and the very first question he asked the duo was about the actress's jazz performance. While you might think that she simply got on a stage and spouted a bunch of improvised nonsense into a microphone, the exact opposite was the case, as everything was scripted, and it took half a day to shoot it.
