WSJ. Magazine gets talking with Pamela Anderson, who was a 1990s icon and fame of 'Baywatch.' The story reflects on her career, and the launch of her new memoir 'Love, Pamela' along with the Netflix documentary 'Pamela, A Love Story.' The blonde actress talks in the feature about getting older, the Hulu series Pam & Tommy, and defying people’s expectations about her.

Chantal Anderson has photographed the star looking laid-back yet glamorous, with the styling works of Rebecca Ramsey. Pamela Anderson, who also posed for Variety Magazine recently, dressed up in a wardrobe of casual knits, elegant blouses, and chic accessories, while Madrid Glow has worked on makeup, with hair by Sara Tintari. The star was also under media scrutiny for her relationship with Tommy Lee, and the former couple were an IT couple of the 90s, getting married just four days after they had met.

Anderson on getting older:

“I think we’re so much more beautiful the way that we are,” she says. “No one wants to hear about natural beauty from me. But I’m not afraid of getting older. I kind of like that I’m not chasing youth.”

Anderson on last year’s Hulu series “Pam & Tommy” (Ms. Anderson says she was not consulted about the show):

“It’s like, I’m right here. Hello? I’m alive. Maybe you want to sit down and talk to me and find out more? But they didn’t,” Ms. Anderson says. A representative for the model-actress says Hulu did reach out to her team, but the staff kept the inquiries from her because they perceived it to be a hurtful project.

Anderson on defying people’s expectations:

“Part of my life is always trying to get over that hump, convincing people that I’m capable of anything because of the image of me,” she says. “And I know I’m responsible for that. But yeah. I’m a Playmate that wrote a book. Sorry.”
