PAMMY THE REAL ME

Sex symbol star ditches her makeup

- ASHLEIGH RAINBIRD

ACTRESS Pamela Anderson has stripped off her makeup to look natural, and challenge ideas of beauty.

The Baywatch star and former Playboy model, 56, wants to "flip the script" on the beauty industry because getting fully made up every day means "you lose yourself".

Five-times married Pamela, who became a 90s sex symbol as CJ Parker in the US beach series, now spends far less time getting ready.

She said: "It's like you spend half your life in a makeup chair in this industry. A lot of great friends are makeup and hair stylists, and those are all important people in these dreams that we're all creating for magazines and movies. But, for every day, you lose yourself.

"So it's nice to challenge yourself and not fall into all that madness. I create my own kind of madness." She wore no makeup at autumn's Paris Fashion Week shows but insisted it was no act of "rebellion".
