Pamela Anderson
“I spent some time for myself, stripping away this caricature that I created, because I’d started believing that it was true.”
There is one thing that Pamela Anderson is sure of, and it’s that life is full of change. “You start thinking back to the reality – what was I doing 30 years ago? What was my perspective on the world?” With the PamNaissance in full swing, she’s “a very different person now”.
From her critically acclaimed role in The Last Showgirl to speaking out about the causes that inspire her and her brand-new plant-based cooking show, this is Pamela Anderson standing in her power.
In this issue, Pamela Anderson is ready for her closeup: her second act is only just beginning.
