We love Pamela! Born on July 1, 1967, Pamela Anderson is a Canadian-American actress, model, and pop culture icon who rose to fame as the ultimate blonde bombshell of the 1990s. She first captured public attention in 1989 after appearing on the cover of Playboy, which led her to move to Los Angeles and pursue modeling full-time. She quickly became a fixture in the industry, landing covers and spreads in major publications like Rolling Stone, Vogue, and GQ.

In the early ’90s, Pamela transitioned into acting and skyrocketed to global fame as C.J. Parker on the hit series Baywatch. She went on to appear in films such as Scary Movie 3, Superhero Movie, and even reprised her iconic lifeguard role in the 2019 Baywatch movie. In 2022, she made her Broadway debut in Chicago, taking on the lead role of Roxie Hart and earning praise for her performance.

Over the past few years, Pamela has embraced a more natural look, stepping out with minimal makeup and a refreshed sense of self. Her decision to let go of glam and embrace authenticity has been widely celebrated. She’s also made headlines for her personal life once again—this time for her reported romance with actor Liam Neeson.

Pamela’s relationships have long been part of her public narrative. She was famously married to Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee, with whom she shares two sons. She also wed musician Kid Rock and professional poker player Rick Salomon—twice.
