Pamela Anderson is a Canadian-American actress, model, and media personality. Pamela Anderson is best known for her glamor modeling work in Playboy magazine and for her appearances on the television series Baywatch (1992–1997).

Anderson came to public prominence after being selected as the February 1990 Playmate of the Month for Playboy magazine. She went on to make regular appearances on the magazine’s cover, holding the record for the most Playboy covers by any person. Anderson became known to a wider audience in 1991 when she appeared on the ABC sitcom Home Improvement, playing the role of Lisa for its first two seasons. She gained international recognition for her starring role as “C.J.” Parker on the action drama series Baywatch (1992–1997), further cementing her status as a sex symbol. She played Vallery Irons on the syndicated series V.I.P. (1998–2002) and starred as Skyler Dayton on the Fox sitcom Stacked (2005–2006).

Anderson’s film credits include Raw Justice (1994), Barb Wire (1996), Scary Movie 3 (2003), Superhero Movie, Blonde and Blonder (both 2008), The Institute, Baywatch (both 2017), and City Hunter (2018). She appeared in her own documentary series in 2008, which she also co-directed, and has taken part in numerous reality television shows from around the world, such as Dancing with the Stars (2010, 2012), Bailando (2011), VIP Brother (2012), Dancing on Ice (2013), and Dancing with the Stars (2018).

Anderson has publicly supported various charitable causes, particularly animal rights, and has endorsed PETA activities. She has also released three autobiographies and four novels. Anderson was the recipient of a star on the Canadian Walk of Fame in 2006. She holds both American and Canadian citizenship.

Anderson has been critical of pornography. In 2016, she co-authored a viral Wall Street Journal opinion piece with Orthodox rabbi Shmuley Boteach, in which they called online pornography a “public hazard of unprecedented seriousness.” The two called for a “sensual revolution” to replace “pornography with eroticism, the alloying of sex with love, of physicality with personality, of the body’s mechanics with imagination, of orgasmic release with binding relationships.” They later gave a joint lecture at Oxford University to over 1,000 people. Boteach observed: “It can be intimidating to talk about pornography and eroticism alongside an international sex symbol, but I think Pamela has handled it extremely well.” The two also wrote a book together, Lust for Love (2018), about how meaningful, passionate sex has been declining, and called for a new sensual revolution that emphasizes partners connecting in the bedroom.
