Pamela Anderson

Pamela Anderson is an actress, model and author. A camera operator who noticed her in the crowd discovered Anderson at a 1989 Canadian Football League game and put her on the jumbotron. From there, she was signed to be a model for Labatt’s beer.

She became famous after being selected as the Playmate of the Month for Playboy in 1990. Anderson later became a household name after starring as C.J. Parker in the beloved series Baywatch alongside David Hasselhoff, which earned her a spot of being considered a sex symbol in Hollywood. Her additional acting credits include Barb Wire, The Nanny, Scary Movie 3, Borat and Stacked.

Anderson made her Broadway debut in Chicago in 2022. The following year, she released her documentary Pamela, a Love Story, which detailed her troubled relationship with ex-husband Tommy Lee, with whom she shares two sons: Brandon Thomas and Dylan Jagger Lee. The doc also dealt with the fallout of her and Lee’s infamous 1995 sex tape.

The actress returned to the big screen in 2025’s The Last Showgirl, and Anderson received high praise for her work in the film, even scoring Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award nominations.

Anderson was married to Lee from 1995 to 1998 and then to singer Kid Rock from 2006 to 2007. She next married poker player Rick Salomon — twice — first from 2007 to 2008 and then from 2014 to 2015. After the relationship crumbled, due to Salomon’s alleged drug problem, which Anderson stated in Pamela, a Love Story, she was married to bodyguard Dan Hayhurst for one year until they finalized their divorce in early 2022.
