Who is Pamela Anderson?
Born on July 1, 1967, Pamela Anderson is an actress and model who got her start in the 1980s as a Playboy model.
Her first appearance was on the cover of the October 1989 issue and in January 2011 she became the first model to have appeared on the magazine’s cover 13 times.
The Canadian model and actress had moved to California when she appeared on the cover of Playboy for the second time in 1991.
“Hollywood people are dreamers, always grabbing for something big,” Us Weekly reported Anderson said in the issue.
“I’m a dreamer too, so I guess I belong here.”
She continued to pose for Playboy while going on to star in Baywatch and Home Improvement.
In 1998 Anderson was joined on the cover of Playboy by her Baywatch co-stars Donna D’Errico, Traci Bingham, and Gena Lee Nolin.
What is Pamela Anderson’s net worth?
Pamela net worth has taken a hit over the years after several failed marriages, financial missteps, and a sex tape scandal in the 1990s.
Anderson played the role of Casey Jean (C.J.) Parker on Baywatch and in a 2018 interview on Baywatch TV, Anderson said: “I’m happy (Baywatch is) still playing all over the world. The character is me.
“I feel like I went from Baywatch to where I am now. Everything is a blur in the middle.”
However, Pamela’s financial problems started in 1995 when she married Mötley Crüe drummer, Tommy Lee.

Their marriage resulted in a leaked sex tape that further launched Lee’s career but tainted Anderson’s.
According to The Washington Post, although the couple sued the person who distributed the sex tape, it was too late and he had made $77million in profits.
Neither Pamela or Tommy made any money from the now infamous tape.
The couple’s marriage promptly fell apart, but Pam’s financial struggles were far from over.
She accrued millions in property debt and unpaid taxes, ultimately causing her to sell her house and move to a trailer park.
According to The Los Angeles Times, she ultimately listed her trailer on the market for $1.75million and moved back to her home in Canada.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, at the height of her career, Anderson was making $6.6million per season on Baywatch, but as of January 2023 she has a net worth of $20million.
What is Pamela Anderson up to now?

She has her own foundation, The Pamela Anderson Foundation, where she says: “25 years of connecting resources – for charity – a natural extension – I have been dedicated to human, animal, and environmental rights… it’s all connected.”
Her website adds: “We do not have to be part of the ‘bewildered herd’ philosophy – we must be outspoken and brave.
“Question everything. Challenging communities – and politics worldwide – in a provocative way.”
She says her foundation funds the protection of the planet and environment and “those who live within it.”
On January 31, 2023, Pamela released her highly anticipated Netflix documentary: Pamela, A Love Story.
