PAMELA ANDERSON



Biography

Pamela Denise Anderson was born in Ladysmith, British Columbia, on July 1, 1967. Literally born into the spotlight, she was the first baby to be born on Canada's100th birthday, earning her the title of "The Centennial Baby." Her landmark birth was chronicled in the local newspaper and her parents, Barry and Carol, were awarded with cash prizes for the birth of little Pamela.

In the summer of 1989, Pam was spotted on the jumbo screen of a CFL game wearing a Labatt 's T-shirt, and the crowd went wild for her. They immediately offered her a modeling contract. Thanks to the popularity of a Labatt beer campaign in Vancouver, Canada, Pamela was approached to do a cover for Playboy. Her appearance on Hef's magazine was the launching pad of her career, and roles in television soon followed.

She had a small role on the comedy Married... With Children and played Lisa, the Tool Time Girl, on Home Improvement. Her role on Home Improvement led to her red bathing suit-clad role as lifeguard C.J. Parker on Baywatch.

In 1996, Pamela starred in her first feature film, Barb Wire, despite her manager's advice to refuse the film role. She should have taken his advice, since the film bombed at the box office.

The event in Pamela Anderson's life that has caused the most hoopla in the public eye was her spontaneous surprise wedding to Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee after dating him for four days. Pamela's most widely recognized camera appearance is probably the tape of her and Tommy Lee engaging in sexual acts. The homemade video was allegedly stolen from their house in 1995 and can still be viewed on the internet. In 1997, one year after the birth of their first child, Brandon, Pamela filed for divorce. It didn't take long for the Lees to get back together and Dylan, their second son, was born later that year.

In 1998, Pamela starred in and produced the successful syndicated show V.I.P.

Pamela and male model Marcus Schenkenberg became an item after her final split from Tommy Lee. Making her divorce from Tommy even more official, she dropped "Lee" from her name in June 2000. In April 2001, she started seeing the king of trailer-trash rock, the cocky Kid Rock.

In early 2002, Pamela announced her involvement in the animated series Stripperella, a stripper/superhero character created by Stan Lee of Marvel Comics fame. This was followed by news that she would accompany her new boyfriend on tour as an on-stage stripper. All this was put on hold when it was made public that Pamela had been diagnosed with hepatitis C. She claims that she contracted the potentially fatal disease by having shared a tattoo needle with Tommy Lee.

She also cowrote a book with Eric Shaw Quin called Star in 2004. She wrote and published her second book, Star Struck, in 2005. It gave a "veiled" look at her life as a celebrity and as wife to Tommy Lee.
