Who is Pamela Anderson?

Pamela Anderson is a Canadian model, actress, producer and activist famous for being a former playboy playmate and for her role as coast guard in the television series, ‘Baywatch’. She is also an animal rights activist who is actively involved with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). She became a model by chance when she was spotted wearing a figure-hugging Labatt's Beer t-shirt in a football stadium and was promptly hired by the company for modeling for their commercials. Suddenly famous, she received an offer from Playboy magazine to appear as the cover girl on an issue, and was subsequently chosen as a ‘Playboy Playmate of the Month’. Her first major television appearance was as lifeguard C.J. Parker in ‘Baywatch’, an action drama series. She went on to become one of the most popular faces of the series. She got her first movie break with ‘Raw Justice’, and was immediately noticed by the critics for her steamy love scenes in the film. She again appeared on the covers of ‘Playboy’ and cemented her image as a sexy blonde bombshell. But, there is more to Anderson than just her sex appeal—she is an active campaigner for animal rights and is involved with PETA.
