'From Baywatch to Broadway. I am inspired by the unexpected,' Anderson told the AP in a statement. 'This is it, and I will not hold back anymore. I am letting go. I am ready to see what I'm capable of.'

She added: 'For Chicago, I'll be putting all my cards on the table. I am doubling down - on me.'

Set in the 1920s, the musical is a scathing satire of how show business and the media make celebrities out of criminals. It has Bob Fosse-inspired choreography, skimpy outfits and songs such as 'All That Jazz' and 'Cell Block Tango.'

Chicago tells the story of Roxie Hart, a housewife and dancer who s her on-the-side lover after he threatens to leave her.

'From Baywatch to Broadway. I am inspired by the unexpected,' Anderson told the AP in a statement. 'This is it, and I will not hold back anymore. I am letting go. I am ready to see what I'm capable of.'

To avoid conviction, Roxie hires Chicago´s slickest criminal lawyer to help her dupe the public, media and her rival cellmate, Velma Kelly, by creating shocking headlines.

'Pam is a very moral person, extremely moral. She cares about animals. She cares about the planet. She cares about people,' said producer Barry Weissler.

So Pam comes with totally opposite attributes in life, but she fits because of her celebrity, what she´s gone through in life.'

Weissler said he had approached Anderson about the Roxie part over a decade ago, but their schedules didn't work.

'Now that we're doing it, it's even more opportune. It's more timely. She's really standing for something now - as a professional, as an activist, as a very talented lady. She can surprise a lot of people,' he said.
