Pamela Anderson: What Have You Done?!?!? - Showbiz

xenixtao · 08-01-2006, 01:01

Have A Look

All I will say is: "Pamela, grow old gracefully love

".

It's a shame really, there seems to be loads of post-35 female stars that have royally freaked up their looks (think Farah Fawcett, Melanie Griffith etc). It's a shame because if you look at photos of Farah Fawcett for example, she might have looked like a woman in her forties before surgery, but she was still nice and looked a lot better than after

Back to Pam, I always thought she was really nice looking, now she looks like she's wearing a latex mask

Ouchthathurt · 08-01-2006, 11:19

Oh how I agree with you! There is only so much you can do to your body before it fights back and Farrah has definitely lost the battle. Pamela is on the way.

I tell you who she now reminds me of - a blonde Janice Dickinson who looks like a cariacature of herself.

I was watching the Pam Anderson True Hollywood Story on E! a couple of weeks ago and they obviously showed us photos of this incredibly pretty girl with a lovely natural figure, a girl who was displayed like that on the big screen at a major league ice hockey game and literally stopped play.

If they hadn't have told me that it was Pam Anderson, I honestly would never have recognised her.

Why oh why do these people think they mess around with nature like this?

zx50 · 08-01-2006, 11:28

Hmmn yeah...you can't half tell she has had plastic surgery there. Her face looks about as stretched and smooth as a beach balls surface.

I agree. I've seen the ice hockey game footage that you mention and she does look like a completely different person. However, her dabbling in surgery is not a recent thing. She already, more or less, looked like she does now while she was in Baywatch. She started off quite natural, except for her boobs obviously, but proceeded to have more and more work done.

Fergie from The Black Eyed Peas is another. I've seen her discussed on threads on DS before and seen the 'before and after' pictures. She looks totally different and yet she has denied having surgery.

Why do these celebrities seem to think that Botox is the answer? Sure, it may iron out your creases but it also makes you look like a shiny waxwork as well (see Kylie and Dannii Minogue) It's all very sad that forty year old and over women cannot let themselves be seen with a few wrinkles.

I guess it's the youth-centric media. In fact, I think you'd be hard pressed to find any social problem the media isn't responsible for

I think it's a shame for Pam, she was really nice looking and to be honest, someone who has a few wrinkles but natural looks can still be nice (Joanna Lumley springs to mind).

Now Joanna Lumley is a classy looking lady, who doesn't care about the lines around her eyes and accepts aging. And one who doesn't air her dirty linen in public. Thank god we Brits do produce a few of those who are in the public eye. Apart from actresses like Lauren Bacal and Katharine Hepburn, the Americans don't seem to have many of the classy type who grew old gracefully.

That's the perfect word for our Joanna, "classy"

. I think she's a perfect example of the old skool style of star who looked great young, and who still looks great now she's slightly older. And you never hear scandal about her, or anything remotely sleazy or obnoxious... Ah, they don't make them like that anymore

Lovely voice too, very soothing.

Funnily enough, I was also going to mention Katharine Hepburn

, and I think Audrey Hepburn was a classy lady too

Oh yeah, definitely Audrey Hepburn. She came into her own when I was a teenager and I wanted to be just like her. I grew far too tall and outwards in the bust and hips areas to be a slim boyish type though, much to my dismay!

Well, I used to want to be Tom Cruise (back when he was cool), but got too tall and not good looking enough

. Not that I'm complaining, being 5'7 should surely be an official disability for a movie star.

These days I've settled for being Ryan Phillipe

swirlygirl · 08-01-2006, 13:53

Yeah Audrey Hepburn may have been "classy" but she succumbed as much as the plastic surgery lot do to the media's idea of beauty by starving herself...

Judi Dench is another one. She always looks fabulous and healthy, yet her age.

I don't see why people can't just try and look healthy and fabulous, rather than younger.

As for Pamela Anderson, I seriously think that she just needs to lay off the collagen. It's the lips that make the face look so overdone.

Ah, Judi Dench. What a talented lady and always looks fabulous. Now if anyone wants an actress for a role model it should be her, not the likes of Pam Anderson and the other Hollywood cretins.

Suze · 08-01-2006, 14:14

I realise this is just annoyingly pedantic of me - but I can't help myself! It wasn't a hockey game that Pamela was attending where the camera crew put her face up on the big screen - it was a football game (North American style football that is). It was game in the Canadian Football League in Vancouver. Just, you know, in case it comes up in a pub quiz or something.

(Oh! And I definitely agree with the opinions so far in this thread - the over stretched faces of most older Hollywood actresses is a disturbing trend....)

Dame Judi's wonderful. Maggie Smith too, I could watch her in anything.

It's funny, the best stars are the ones who are famous for being themselves. Like, you look at Marilyn, she's simply Marilyn. You look at Pwicee, she's a pair of breasts

.

Now, I know I just slagged Pwicee off there for being breasts and nothing else, and I've slagged off the Marsh in another thread for being a thong and an ego, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and say I actually quite like Pam, even though she showed it to the world in the pages of Playboy.

But, in her defence, she's always come across very well in interviews, she's not a bad actress at all and really doesn't appear to be a nasty or particularly dodgy person; plus I think she was actually very nice looking, so I jut find it a shame she's chosen to ruin her good looks with melon-sized implants

and obviously some kind of bad facelift

You're right. My bad

I'm so used to ice hockey games in Vancity that I automatically think that's all they play. My other half is a fiend for the Saturday night ice hockey game if he isn't in a play or performing somewhere.

Like you Stu, I don't dislike Pammie Anderson at all. I quite liked the show where she was a bodyguard, how embarrassing that I can't remember the name of it! I just think she should now start to lay off the enhancing thing.

We get it Pammie. You're sexy and blonde. Now how about ageing gracefully because like the rest of us you aren't getting any younger.

Suze · 08-01-2006, 14:35

OK. I'm in danger of coming across as a Pam-know-it-all...but it's really just that I'm Canadian. And Canadians are forced to learn everything we can about famous Canadians before we're allowed to emigrate so we can answer the 'name a famous Canadian' question....

Anyway....Pamela's bodyguard show was VIP.

(and Ouch - Hockey Night in Canada! An institution! Your other half is obviously a man of great taste. Or just Canadian.)

Oh believe me! He's Canadian through and through. The funniest thing I ever saw was us sitting with a huge party in a bar in Denman Street in Vancouver with only one Canadian, my other half! The discussion was raging about the various difficulties of living in Canada as an ex pat and all he said in a teeny little voice was "I feel a bit picked on..."

Yeah VIP, that was it. I thought she was okay in that.

Squealer_Mahony · 08-01-2006, 18:48

I think she looks horrible in both pics but I am just a meanie.
I think it's more to do with the quality of the first one though.
She looks sun burnt.

_hunni_bunni · 08-01-2006, 19:26

I think she looks better in the second picture though tbh. Even though she looks plastic ,that was probly the kinda barbie doll look she was going for.

lots2do · 08-01-2006, 19:37

Nice pencilled in eyebrows, Pammie - NOT.

Yeah, when I see women who do that I always wonder why. Surely they can have their eyebrows plucked professionally to make a flattering arched line if they can't get the courage to pluck it themselves?

I don't know what it is about them that makes them think that the drawn line above their eyes is more flattering than natural hair.

Caramel · 09-01-2006, 14:28

It seems the eternal youth these celebs are attempting to attain could be what they will not achieve, in terms of life expectancy; after all who knows what long-term effects silicone, botox and collagen will have on their health.

Ceza · 10-01-2006, 11:13

wow she looks totally different, are you sure that is the same person?! also found paris hilton as a teen http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/archives/005189.html

Yes I agree. Why don't these people age gracefully?
I mean to have the odd nose job is one thing or even a bit of lippo suction if you feel it would help but people go OTT. Making them look worst than ever.

I mean look at Honor Blackman, Joanna Lumely or Goldie Hawn. They have all aged fab and I don't think they have been under the knife. Please correct me if Im wrong.

Red_Duck · 10-01-2006, 12:26

As an actress who can actually act as opposed to looking like a mannequin, it pays NOT to have plastic surgery as you get older. The reason Dames Judi Dench and Maggie Smith and Helen Mirren and non-Dame Joanna Lumley still get cast in leading roles is that they have highly expressive faces and the camera can pick up subtle changes ofexpression. A botoxed face has to be as subtle as a sledge hammer to convey the same range of emotions. As an article said recently, Raquel Welch for example, might look decades younger than her contemporaries such as Maggie Smith and Judi Dench, but no one seems to want to offer her the kind of meaty film, television and stage work that regularly comes their way.
