Pamela Anderson has embraced a makeup-free lifestyle, but many of her fans are still having trouble accepting it.
She first publicly showcased this change at Paris Fashion Week in 2023, and it has become a defining aspect of her public persona.
The famed Baywatch star is again going viral this week as she looks barely recognizable at 57 years old.
The Golden Globe nominee was one of the attendees at the 2025 Met Gala on Monday. She wasn’t alone; she brought along her son Brandon Thomas Lee as her date for the occasion.
The 2025 event had a theme of “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.”
For the red carpet, Pamela Anderson wore a silver beaded gown designed by Tory Burch. She also debuted a bold bob with her blonde hair hitting just above her shoulders and baby bangs that ended right above her eyebrows.
The fresh cut marked a departure from Anderson’s usual style, adding an unexpected modern twist to her iconic look.

“I’m happy to see her comfortable in her own body, aging beautifully. But you are correct. Did she just go through a break-up yesterday? That’s the only excuse for those bangs. 😂,” One final person added.
