Born as Canada’s centennial baby on July 1, 1967, Pamela Denise Anderson was destined to be a star. An unexpected sequence of events landed her right on the doorstep of Hollywood, where she became known as a lovable, daring, enticing, platinum-blond bombshell. She may be scorned by some for her appearance, but many people admire and applaud Pamela Anderson for her firm dedication to PETA and as an international spokesperson for vegetarians.

Pamela Anderson would make her way into the spotlight at a 1989 football game in Vancouver, where a cameraman captured her spunk among thousands and changed her life forever. The entire arena went wild when they saw Pamela Anderson on the wide screen in a sexy Labatt beer t-shirt. When Labatt beer got wind of her appeal, they hired Pamela Anderson as their hot new poster girl to do commercials and ads. On any given night, you could find her face and killer-figure on the walls of bars and nightclubs all over Canada.

Her widespread popularity began to trickle over the border, and pretty soon Hugh Hefner was making an offer for Pamela Anderson to make her American debut on the cover of Playboy magazine. Men everywhere fell in love with Pamela Anderson and due to her fame from Playboy, her television career soon took off. Some of her many television credits include Married With Children, Home Improvement, Baywatch, Baywatch Nights, V.I.P., Stacked, and the animated Stripperella. Former porn star Emma Nixon, who was once in Penthouse, was Pamela’s make-up artist on V.I.P. Since then, Pamela Anderson has also starred in several made-for-TV movies and films. Most recently, Pamela Anderson has been seen as Grammy award winning artist Kanye West’s love interest in his music video, "Touch the Sky."

Pamela made her way ringside in 1995 when she made a vow to participate in Wrestlemania with the winner of the World Wrestling Federation’s Royal Rumble. In April of 1995, she accompanied Diesel in a match against Shawn Michaels. Michaels was accompanied by former Playboy model Jenny McCarthy (who ironically shared the cover of Playboy’s September, 1997 issue) by his side. This marked the beginning of a long-lasting relationship between WWE Divas and Playboy magazine. Today, you can find WWE Divas such as Rena Mero (Sable), Christy Hemme, Candace Michelle, Torrie Wilson, and Chyna (Joanie Laurer), within the archives of Playboy.
