Following Lily James’ recent portrayal of Pamela Anderson in the Disney+ series Pam & Tommy, fans of the show have become fixated on the real-life star, and how she became to be the household name she is today. From her iconic role as C. J. Parker in Baywatch, and her many appearances in Playboy, this new series follows her infamous relationship with Tommy Lee, and goes into detail about their sex tape leak scandal, and how it was an accidental theft.
But as fans come to terms with the fact that there *probably* won’t be a second season due to it being a limited series, it seems the Pamela Anderson fix will need to be sourced from somewhere else. So, if you’re nosey like us, why not start with her net worth?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, she is worth a comfortable $20 million (£15 million). It’s alright for some, eh? After starting her career in modelling, and having her first Playboy cover in October, 1989, she has gone on to appear in the magazine 14 times - more than any other model in its history.
Anderson then began to dabble in the world of acting, bagging herself a small role in the ABC comedy, Home Improvement. She played the role of Lisa for two series - that is until she donned the classic red swimsuit in Baywatch alongside David Hasslehoff, Yasmine Bleach, Nicole Eggert, and Jeremy Jackson.
And aside from Baywatch being the pinnacle of her career, the star has made her fortune in other acting, modelling, and entrepreneurial ventures, too. After appearing in 2006’s Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, she took part in reality shows like Dancing on Ice, Big Brother, and Dancing With The Stars.
She also released a book Star in 2004, and launched collections with lingerie brand Coco De Mer, and French luxury vegan fashion brand, Ashoka Paris. And if that’s not enough, Pamela also has her own charity, the Pamela Anderson Foundation, which supports those on the front lines of human, animal, and environmental rights.
