Pamela Denise Anderson (born July 1, 1967)[2][3][4] is a Canadian American actress, model, media personality, and author. She rose to prominence after being selected as the February 1990 Playboy Playmate of the Month, and went on to make regular appearances on the magazine's cover and holding the record for the most Playboy covers by any individual.[5] She then received international recognition for starring as "C.J." Parker on the action drama series Baywatch (1992–1997), which further cemented her status as a sex symbol.[6]
In 1995, a sex tape of Anderson with her then-husband Tommy Lee was stolen and leaked, which resulted in a legal fight and made her the subject of controversy. She went on to play Vallery Irons on the syndicated series V.I.P. (1998–2002) and Skyler Dayton on the Fox sitcom Stacked (2005–2006). Her film credits include Raw Justice (1994), Barb Wire (1996), Scary Movie 3 (2003), Borat (2006), Superhero Movie, Blonde and Blonder (both 2008), The Institute, Baywatch (both 2017), City Hunter (2018), and The Last Showgirl (2024). Anderson also appeared in her own reality series Pam: Girl on the Loose (2008) and has been involved with a number of television shows such as Dancing with the Stars (2010, 2012), Bailando (2011), VIP Brother (2012), Dancing on Ice (2013), and Danse avec les stars (2018). She will host Pamela’s Cooking with Love, a Food Network Canada show in 2024.
Anderson is also known for her activism, having publicly supported many charitable matters and causes, particularly animal rights and PETA activities.[7] She is also the author of the autobiography Love, Pamela (2023) and the plant-based cookbook I Love You: Recipes from the Heart (2024).
