Pamela Anderson arrives to the Met Gala in beautiful dress
Pamela Anderson arrives in style to the Met Gala with baby bangs.
Pamela Anderson is baring it all about going bare face.
The model and Baywatch alum recently opened up to People magazine about her turn to natural glam over the past two years.
"People come up to me daily; at the grocery store, on the beach, on my walks," Anderson said in the story published May 15. "People are like, 'Thank you so much for doing this,'" noting the look resonates with "a lot of people."
The "Last Showgirl" actress was speaking to the outlet about her skincare brand Sonsie, which has a cult following, after she recently wore natural glam (and new bangs) to the Met Gala on May 5.
"I think that sometimes we have to come back to ourselves and peel it all the way to remember who we are, what our original thoughts are, what our dreams and aspirations are," Anderson said about going makeup-free. "So this is all part of it, it's coming back to who you are and wherever you are in your beauty journey."
But the "Love, Pamela" author said she's "not opposed to makeup," adding that "I love glam, I love all of that" and "I love creating characters on film or in theater."
Pamela Anderson started going makeup-free in 2023
The "Baywatch" bombshell has peeled back the layers of her personal life in recent years, seen by some fans as a revision of her previous Hollywood reputation as a sex symbol.
Her fresh-faced glow has impressed many since she started transitioning away from makeup on red carpets in 2023 (and kicked off a "natural beauty revolution," in the words of her "Showgirl" co-star Jamie Lee Curtis).
In October of that year, she told Vogue France she hopes that she can help model the multitude of ways women can express themselves.
"I'm not trying to be the prettiest girl in the room," she said. "I feel like it's just freedom. It's a relief."
Pamela Anderson goes makeup-free at Gotham Awards, says it didn't 'make sense' for her
Then, at the 2024 Gotham Film Awards, Anderson told People that she hasn't completely removed makeup from her life.
"I love to wear makeup too sometimes," she said. "It has a time and a place. I just feel in my personal life, it just didn't really make sense."

Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie's Twins, Vivienne And Knox, Are Their Parents' Mini-Mes On Rare LA Outing
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's twins, Vivienne and Knox Jolie-Pitt, made a rare appearance recently, which highlighted their strong resemblance to their famous parents. The duo was spotted in Los Angeles dressed casually as they visited a grocery store to pick up a few items. Besides the soon-to-be 17-year-old twins, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie share four other children, including Shiloh, 19, and their adopted siblings Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, and Zahara, 20. Jolie and Pitt's twins, Vivienne and Knox, were recently spotted in public, and people couldn't help but notice how much they resemble their famous parents. Knox looked much like the younger version of his father, with his low haircut that looked similar to the one Pitt had when he starred with Jolie in the action comedy "Mr. & Mrs. Smith." Meanwhile, Vivienne looked like the spitting image of her mother, wearing her hair loose, with some strands tucked behind her ears, just like the actress had been seen doing many times. For the outing, the duo dressed casually, wearing complementing outfits that consisted of a white polo, denims, and sneakers. They visited their local grocery, and Knox was seen carrying out a shopping bag as they made their way out of the location. From all indications, it appeared that they were unaccompanied by their mother on the casual outing. Earlier this year, the twins showed their humanitarian side by joining their mother to help close friends who were affected by the devastating fires that swept through parts of Los Angeles. The trio was spotted making multiple visits to their local grocery store in Los Feliz to pick up items needed to care for some of their loved ones who were staying at their home. "Right now I'm taking care of people close to me and having them at my house," she told the Daily Mail at the time during one of their grocery runs. A source also confirmed to People Magazine that the actress was "heartbroken for those who have lost their homes or are impacted by the fires." "She's doing everything she can to help, even opening her home to friends who were forced to evacuate," they continued. Knox and Vivienne are the youngest of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's six children. Their siblings include their older biological sister Shiloh, 19, and adopted siblings Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, and Zahara, 20. As for why the twins are rarely seen in public, Jolie explained in a promotional interview last year for her film "Maria" that all of her kids prefer to live "quite private" lives. "None of my children want to be in front of the camera [at] this time," Jolie said during an appearance on "Good Morning America," per People. "They're quite private." "Shiloh's extremely private," the actress noted, before adding, "They weren't born with privacy, right? So, I hope that they can have that as they grow old. So we'll see." That same year, she made a similar statement to E! News when asked if her kids intended to pursue a career in acting. "No, I think they're especially shy, very private people," she told the outlet. "They want to be private." While Jolie seems to have a strong relationship with her children, things appear to be different with Pitt. Last year, People confirmed that his bond with his older children remains strained, and he has had "virtually no contact" with them for a long time. Meanwhile, he still has "visitation" rights with the younger kids, twins Vivienne and Knox, although Jolie has the children "most of the time." Yet, his relationship with the twins may not be very strong either. Multiple reports last year noted that Vivienne dropped the last name "Pitt" from her credit in The Outsiders Playbill. However, it has yet to be confirmed whether she has legally changed her name. After nearly a decade-long legal war, Pitt and Jolie finally reached a settlement in their divorce in December last year. The Hollywood stars first met while filming "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" in 2003 and subsequently started dating before getting married in August 2014. However, shortly after their second wedding anniversary and an alleged private jet abuse incident, the "Maleficent" actress filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences as the cause of their split. Following their divorce settlement, Jolie's lawyer, James Simon, revealed that the actress is "relieved this one part is over." "Frankly, Angelina is exhausted," Simon told the Daily Mail. "More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr Pitt, and since that time, she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family."

Chris Pratt and Nick Offerman mourn death of 'Parks and Recreation' castmate Jonathan Joss
Chris Pratt and Nick Offerman paid tribute to their "Parks and Recreation" castmate Jonathan Joss following the actor's death this week. Joss was fatally shot in front of his San Antonio, Texas, home on Sunday by one of his neighbors, police said. He was 59. The actor had a recurring role as Chief Ken Hotate in the hit NBC sitcom. "Damn. RIP Jonathan. Always such a kind dude," Pratt, who had his breakthrough role as Andy Dwyer in the series, wrote on his Instagram story on Monday. "Sad to see. Prayers up. Hug your loved ones." Offerman, who starred in "Parks and Recreation" as Ron Swanson, told People magazine on Tuesday that he and other co-stars have been in contact since Joss' death. "The cast has been texting together about it all day and we're just heartbroken," Offerman said. "Jonathan was such a sweet guy and we loved having him as our Chief Ken Hotate. A terrible tragedy." "Sex and the City" star Cynthia Nixon, who was not on the sitcom, also paid her respects to Joss. She shared an image of the late actor on Instagram on Tuesday. "Was devastated to learn of the killing last night of the wonderfully talented actor and musician Jonathan Joss, who my family and I enjoyed so much in Parks and Recreation," she wrote. Nixon also repeated claims by Joss' husband that the actor was targeted because of his sexuality. "We will not let this stand," she said. The San Antonio Police Department said in a statement on Monday there was "no evidence" that Joss' killing was motivated by hate, but said the suspect would be charged accordingly "should any new evidence come to light." Conversations with Joss' neighbors and several police reports of prior incidents between Joss and the man arrested for his killing — Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja — paint a complicated picture of what led to the fatal shooting. Joss and Ceja were in a heated back and forth for years that was being mediated by a police crime prevention unit, according to police records and statements shared with NBC News. Ceja could not be reached for comment. The 56-year-old does not have a lawyer, according to the Bexar County District Clerk's Office. In addition to his role on "Parks and Recreation," Joss was also known for his role as John Redcorn in Fox's animated sitcom 'King of the Hill.' The animated series was rebooted and will premiere on Hulu in August, with Joss returning as Redcorn This article was originally published on

Stella McCartney Resort 2026 Collection
Did you see that no-visible-means-of-support dress that Stella McCartney was wearing at the Met Gala? The one where she was standing next to Mary J. Blige, who was in an ivory Stella tuxedo and coat? Somehow, said dress, in white, forest-friendly viscose, was suspended from a wired off-the-shoulder infrastructure. It then swooped into a deep plunge, and flowed onwards into a sumptuous goddess-y drape. But how does it stay on? 'It's architectural, almost like a Christo,' she explained on a Zoom call. 'It's suspended off a corset. The corsetry comes up, and it just captures you, and it just extends beyond the area of your bust and creates this dramatic silhouette. I love the simplicity of it, and the drama of it.' It turns out she was test-driving the studio prototype at the Met. 'It feels so wearable when you have it on. I think it's quite difficult to create a dress that you can wear and feel modern, and still yourself in,' she testifies. That dress, as well as other variants on the wired neckline, appear in the pre-spring collection. Recently—since she became independent—McCartney has become even more focused on what she does best. 'On the strengths that we have that are very clear to me and to the team and also very individual. I think it's about having an attitude. A really strong point of view that I have always had as Stella. And this effortlessness as well.' Dilution and caution are not part of the plan. This pre-spring collection is named A Walk on the Wild Side, a punning nod to McCartney's love for nature and animals, as well as for hot, sexy dressing. It repeats and underscores the shapes in the last runway collection—and the idea she tags 'Laptop to Lapdance,' the synonym for day-to-evening, in Stella-speak. The laptop itself can be accommodated in the enlarged Ryder bag, which comes in recycled faux suede or ostrich look-alike Mycelium-based leather. 'We are an activist brand, and an artistic brand. You can have both.' She has something to cover every eventuality, in a collection that is achieved with 96% conscious materials and is 100% cruelty-free. There is her tailoring (eternally inspired by the Savile Row bespoke suits her parents ordered from Tommy Nutter), a white midi-dress with a back-dipping hem, and a sweatsuit with knitwear embedded trompe l'oeil-wise in the front. Loving animals doesn't hold Stella back from loving animal prints. Last season it was snake, this time it's an oversized ocelot fur pattern, scanned from a photograph of the cat's incredibly beautiful markings. The arc of the brand's offering includes a full spectrum of eveningwear. The drapey, clingy super-short part of it surely harks back to the 1980s and to the second coming of body-con, the neon-bright disco-dress rage which came out of London in the 2000s. She likens the super-molded ones to lingerie contour engineering. 'Just really simple, like power mesh, this little suck-you-in hot, sexy, chuck-it-in-a-bag dress,' as she puts it. A whole new generation can now take advantage of this; if they were born in 2000, they'd be 25 years old, which happens to be exactly the same age as the Stella McCartney business. The arc of what McCartney does lands in souped-up denim—she says she's been doing well with demand for fake leather 'chaps' jeans and standouts like her fierce cross-lacing seamed ones. There's a tank printed with the word HARDCORE amongst this section. Meaningless fun? Yes, maybe, yet even there, McCartney's relentless pursuit of eliminating harm shows up. According to the press release, the black printing is done with Living Ink, a natural renewable non-toxic dye made from spirulina waste, a byproduct 'from the national supplement industry.'
