Born in the city of Ladysmith on Vancouver Island in Canada, Pamela Anderson made her way to LA in 1990 and has become one of the millennium's most recognizable icons, gracing the cover of Playboy a record-breaking 11 times and appearing on more magazine covers worldwide than any star of her generation.

Pamela stars in the Fox sitcom Stacked as a woman working at a bookstore who's trying to change her life and break her habit of falling for less than responsible men. She spent two seasons on the ABC sitcom Home Improvement and five seasons starring on the show Baywatch, which reached a worldwide audience via syndication. She created, produced and starred for four seasons in her own series, VIP, which was also syndicated worldwide, and developed and starred in her own animated series, Stripperella, which aired on Spike TV. In 2004 Pamela added the title of author to her resume with the release of Star, an energetic blend of fact and fiction. Her second novel, Starstruck, comes out in the summer of 2005.

Pamela recently launched The Pamela Collection, a cruelty-free clothing line that includes jeans, T-shirts and pet accessories. A percentage of profits from the line goes to PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, a cause that is close to her heart; she recently received the first Linda McCartney Humanitarian award for her work with PETA.

Pamela launched her own website, www.pamelaanderson.com, where she has started to sell merchandise, and keep a diary for her fans. She lives in LA with her two children, Brandon and Dylan, whom she had with her ex-husband Tommy Lee. dunno Less
