All actors need to show courage, says Pamela Anderson
Pamela Anderson thinks all actors need to show "courage". The 58-year-old actress actually feels she performs at her best whenever she's "terrified", like when she sang in The Naked Gun. The Hollywood star told Entertainment Weekly: "You have to have courage. You have to have courage to be an actor at all. But that's my happy place is when I'm terrified. "I actually really enjoy singing. I love being on stage … The feeling is so rewarding because I feel like we repress so much of ourselves, and especially as an artist, and I love to write and journal and write poetry, but performing and working on a movie is another way to express yourself because everything is loaded." Pamela actually leaned on her own life experiences for her Naked Gun performance. She said: "All the words to that song, I'm thinking of personal experiences in my life, and so I'm able to get it out even in a crazy scene like that. So it's not just spitting out the words, it's performing some of your innermost thoughts." Meanwhile, Pamela recently revealed that she doesn't enjoy her "sex symbol" status. The actress cemented her status as a sex symbol by playing 'C.J.' Parker in Baywatch in the 90s, but Pamela didn't actually enjoy the attention that came her way at the time. During an appearance on the How To Fail With Elizabeth Day podcast, Pamela explained: "I don't like being a sex symbol. "I mean, I think it's not very sexy. I think we all aspire to be sexy in our relationships, but sexy for the world is, I don't know. "It brought a lot of attention I didn't like, but I hate to say that because I'm not complaining, but I do feel that is a slippery slope where you are presenting yourself to the world like this and you get this attention back that." Pamela has adopted a makeup-free look in recent years, and the actress is now embracing being "more natural". She said: "It can be even scary at times, me not wearing makeup and me being at this age, coming into this part of my career, I felt it was important for me in my personal life, to be more natural."

I don't like being a sex symbol, says Pamela Anderson

Anderson has adopted a makeup-free look on red carpets in recent years, and the actress is now embracing being "more natural". "It can be even scary at times, me not wearing makeup and me being at this age, coming into this part of my career, I felt it was important for me in my personal life, to be more natural," she said. "I want to challenge myself and become and to be present myself in different ways because women are many things. We're not just the wild animal between the sheets." Anderson previously admitted to being shocked by the public's reaction to her makeup-free appearance. The Hollywood star actually assumed no one would notice if she decided to stop wearing makeup. She told The Sunday Times newspaper: "There's these beautiful clothes. I'm wearing Vivienne Westwood. I have this great hat and beautiful coat. Nobody's going to notice if I don't wear any make-up." "I didn't realise it was going to start all of this, all these people really relating to me." Anderson feels the public's perception of her has changed over recent times, saying the shift also benefits her two sons. Pamela - who has Brandon, 29, and Dylan, 27, with her ex-husband Tommy Lee - shared: "(My sons) probably don't feel they have to defend their mom any more."
