Pamela Anderson Steps Out in Showgirl-Worthy Style at the Met Gala 2025
Pamela Anderson has had quite a year. First, the 57-year-old star's career-defining turn as veteran Las Vegas dancer Shelly in Gia Coppola's The Last Showgirl got rave reviews and earned her a Golden Globe nomination; now, with the chaos of awards season behind her, Anderson is ready to celebrate the first Monday in May with her oldest son Brandon Thomas Lee by her side.
Anderson hit the red carpet at the 2025 Met Gala with Lee, a producer and actor known for his roles in TV shows and movies including Cosmic Sin and Sierra Burgess is a Loser. (Anderson's younger son, Dylan Jagger Lee, is also a model and musician.) Anderson wore an ice-blue silk mesh Tory Burch gown embroidered with twisted silver sequins and a mix of scattered crystals, and in a nod to the night's Tailored for You dress code, the dress's silhouette was tailored from the inside out using traditional menswear techniques. Lee wore a custom tuxedo by Genuardi.
Anderson and Lee's professional collaboration didn't begin and end with the Met Gala, of course; Lee was credited as an executive producer on The Last Showgirl , telling Variety in December 2024 of his involvement with the film: 'My personal mission was to give my mom the opportunities she gave me as a child. She would do anything for me. She showed up and was a very good mother.'
Hopefully, we'll have many more projects (not to mention red-carpet looks) coming our way from Pamela Anderson & Sons in the future.

9 celebrity jewellery looks that made a statement
2. Audrey Hepburn's Tiffany & Co pearls in 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' (1961) Above Breakfast at Tiffany's' launched numerous celebrity jewellery moments (Photo: IMDB) Nothing says 'iconic' like Audrey Hepburn gazing into a Tiffany's window in Breakfast at Tiffany's . The multi-strand pearl necklace she wore with a Givenchy black dress wasn't hers, but it cemented Tiffany & Co's place in pop culture and made pearls eternally chic. It also introduced the idea of fine jewellery as aspirational, cinematic luxury. 3. Lady Gaga's Tiffany & Co diamond at the Oscars (2019) When Lady Gaga stepped onto the red carpet wearing the legendary 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond—previously worn only by Mary Whitehouse (at the 1957 Tiffany Ball) and Audrey Hepburn (for Breakfast at Tiffany's promos)—she gave the historic yellow diamond its most modern moment yet. Styled with black gloves and an Alexander McQueen gown, it was a homage and a power play all at once. 4. Rihanna's Chopard diamonds at Cannes (2017) Rihanna shut down the Cannes red carpet in custom Chopard—including a watch reimagined as a choker. The look wasn't just stunning—it marked the launch of her co-designed Rihanna ♥ Chopard collection and redefined red carpet jewellery as edgy, fashion-forward and layered, not just traditional. 5. Princess Diana's sapphire engagement ring (1981) Chosen by Diana from a Garrard catalogue (not custom-made), the 12-carat sapphire surrounded by diamonds was controversial for its 'off-the-rack' accessibility. It later became one of the most globally iconic celebrity jewellery pieces, and even more so when Prince William proposed to Kate Middleton with the same ring in 2010. It is now arguably the most famous engagement ring in the world. 6. Beyoncé's Lorraine Schwartz diamonds at the Met Gala (2014) Paired with her sheer Givenchy gown, Beyoncé's black diamond chandelier earrings were a high-drama highlight of the 2014 Met Gala. Lorraine Schwartz and Beyoncé have a long-standing relationship, and this jaw-dropping look proved that diamonds can be as daring as they are dazzling. 7. Marilyn Monroe's diamonds in 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' (1953) Above Celebrity jewellery doesn't have to feature gold carats and flawless diamonds to make an impact. While the dazzling diamond necklace Marilyn wore in the 'Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend' number wasn't real, the scene remains one of the most referenced jewellery moments in film history. The fantasy of diamonds as a girl's ultimate bestie is forever imprinted on pop culture. 8. Kim Kardashian's Lorraine Schwartz diamond ring (2016) Valued at over US$4 million, the 20-carat ring Kanye West gave Kim became notorious after it was stolen during a Paris robbery. It was a defining piece of the Kardashian jewellery narrative—jaw-dropping, headline-making and inseparable from celebrity security discourse.

Zendaya's Bulgari emerald suite at the Venice Film Festival (2021) As a Bulgari ambassador, Zendaya has delivered major celebrity jewellery moments, but her appearance at the Venice Film Festival wearing an emerald and diamond Bulgari suite with a sculptural Balmain gown was peak modern goddess. It showed how a Gen Z star can carry—and redefine—heritage jewels for a new era.

‘Mission: Impossible': 7 stunts that redefined high-stakes action cinema
The knife to the eye ('Mission: Impossible 2', 2000) The stunt: A knife stops just short of Cruise's eyeball during a brutal, close-quarters fight. Game changer: This bold moment cemented the actor's reputation for going above and beyond, pushing the limits of commitment in performing dangerous stunts. Don't miss: Exclusive: Meet Jess Khan-Lee, the actress making Hong Kong shine in the latest 'Mission: Impossible' movie The Burj Khalifa climb ('Ghost Protocol', 2011) The stunt: Scaling the exterior of the world's tallest building in Dubai using only suction gloves. Game changer: This climb transformed Mission: Impossible into a global spectacle. Cruise trained on glass walls before performing the actual climb hundreds of stories above ground. The image of Cruise clinging to glass became instantly iconic, establishing the franchise's new scale of ambition. The airplane hang ('Rogue Nation', 2015) The stunt: Clinging to the exterior of an Airbus A400M cargo plane during takeoff and flight to 5,000 feet. Game changer: Director Christopher McQuarrie initially suggested this as a joke—Cruise took it literally. Performing the stunt eight times while facing bird strikes, debris impacts and fuel exhaust, this aerial nightmare became the signature marketing imagefor Rogue Nation and set a new benchmark for Mission: Impossible madness. The HALO jump ('Fallout', 2018) The stunt: A high altitude low opening parachute jump from 25,000 to 30,000 feet at dusk, making Cruise the first actor to perform an authentic HALO jump on screen. Game changer: This sequence required 106 jumps to capture three perfect takes, with filming restricted to a narrow window at dusk. Apart from making Cruise the first actor to perform an authentic HALO jump on screen, it demonstrated how the franchise could make physiological extremes as thrilling as traditional action scenes. The motorcycle cliff jump ('Dead Reckoning Part One', 2023) The stunt: Riding a motorcycle off a massive Norwegian cliff, then BASE jumping to safety. Game changer: Described as 'the biggest stunt in cinema history', this leap required one full year of BASE jumping training and 13,000 motocross jumps. Cruise performed it six times from a specially constructed Norwegian mountain ramp. Director McQuarrie considered it the most dangerous stunt the team had ever attempted, pushing the franchise into extreme sports territory. The rooftop jump and ankle break ('Fallout, 2018') The stunt: A London rooftop leap that resulted in Cruise breaking his ankle on impact—and finishing the take. Game changer: This wasn't planned, but it became the ultimate testament to Cruise's dedication. After breaking his ankle, he completed the take anyway—footage of his injury reportedly appears in the final cut. Production halted for three months, yet Cruise continued performing on his healing ankle, underscoring the real dangers of practical stunt work. 'Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning' (2025) As the franchise comes to its epic conclusion, Cruise has saved his most audacious stunts for last. The Final Reckoning promises two sequences that may once again redefine the meaning of 'impossible': one sees Cruise clinging to the wing of a 1930s Boeing Stearman biplane flying upside down through South African canyons at 10,000 feet. The other is an underwater scene filmed in a custom-built 800,000-gallon tank with a 1,000-ton rotating gimbal. After nearly three decades of defying gravity and redefining what's possible on screen, Cruise continues to prove that even the most impossible missions are worth attempting.
