Pamela Anderson continues to reinvent herself.

The Last Showgirl star—who is nominated at the 2025 Golden Globes for her leading role as a seasoned Las Vegas showgirl forced to face retirement—is entering awards season with a fresh face, going makeup free since 2023.

“I’ve been playing characters my whole life,” Pamela told Entertainment Tonight last month. “I want to play characters in movies, not in my personal life. I just want to be me, so this is an experiment. It’s just something I feel drawn to do.”

And while she said she “didn’t even think anyone would notice,” the Baywatch alum—who is mom to sons Brandon Thomas, 28, and Dylan Jagger, 27, with ex Tommy Lee—has shared the positive impact her decision has made on others.

“I didn’t realize that it was going to resonate with so many people,” she said during an October episode of Today With Hoda and Jenna. “I had people coming up to me and thanking me. It’s just really interesting to see the ripple effect it’s had. But I did it for myself. I did it for myself just to say I’m good enough as I am, and I don’t need to chase this impossible dream.”
