Dunno why but I find it a bit annoying 😭

Like 'ooo look at how classy i am now that ive ditched the hair extensions and sexy clothes'

That's just me though 😅

I like sjp's look - long hair makes women look younger, imo, and make up can do wonders - i dont think shes had any facial surgery either x

JackGrealishsBobbySocks · 10/08/2025 14:45

She looks great. Her age is what makes her look older.:)

Of course she’s had surgery. Obvious from the shape of her jaw.

(I think she looks bloody good though!)

Why would you think she hadn’t read it?

lnks · 10/08/2025 14:47

Just because you obviously only feel you look good if you conform to misogynistic ideas of what a woman should look like, doesn’t mean the Pamela Anderson looks bad with no make up. I think your belief stems from insecurity about how you yourself looks.

@Mrsbloggz

I really didnt think sjp had 😅😅

Edit, has pam had facial surgery prior to this no make up stuff??

TaborlinTheGreat · 10/08/2025 14:48

It's not actually compulsory for women to prioritise looking a different age than they are. It's ok to just have a particular haircut or clothes because you like them, rather than because they make you look younger.

Omg sjp?? I could've sworn shes said shes anti face surgery?!

And celebrities definitely always tell the truth about this kind of thing...

Shitmonger · 10/08/2025 14:49

Why do the people who post these threads never include the picture(s) that they’re referring to? There was one the other day asking what people thought of someone’s new facelift or some such that also had zero pictures.

Branleuse · 10/08/2025 14:49

She looks very polished, great bone structure, botox and perfect eyebrows.
I think she looks fabulous, but just because she doesn't have foundation and mascara, its hardly a natural look.

Excellent question. No one ever seems able to answer it. “That makes you look older” - and? So what?

redgingerbread · 10/08/2025 14:53

Ageing’s better than dying young…

Blanket statements like ‘long hair makes women look younger’ are just nonsensical.

some women look younger with long hair and some with short.

some women look better with the hair that makes them look older. Looking younger doesn’t always equal looking better.

I’m almost 60. Without makeup and with my mid -long hair left natural and air dried I look younger but I think I look better when my hair is blow dried smooth and I have some makeup on even though I look older.

Belladog1 · 10/08/2025 14:53

People can wear whatever they want to wear and look however they want to look. But do I think Pamela looks good at the moment? No. I think she looks pale and washed out.

In the movie she is promoting she looks stunning, but i dont like her natural look right now.

And as another poster said, SJP looks great.

CalamityGanon · 10/08/2025 14:54

You should listen to her documentary on Netflix. Lovely woman and she talks about why she no longer wears make-up etc. She explains how she was treated as a blonde bimbo in her youth and it’s clear she’s a very intelligent woman and would prefer to be known for her rather than some plastic manufactured facade. I think more women should start to think like that and have more of a fuck it attitude to looks and life and just be happy in their own skin.

GellerYeller · 10/08/2025 14:55

I think Pam looks fantastic with and without makeup.
Im sure SJP said in an interview she was anti ‘tweakment’ but admitted she left it too late to start having anything.
I think she looks great too. Ditto Emma Thompson and Jamie Lee Curtis.

Snorlaxo · 10/08/2025 14:56

Considering Pamela’s experience as a Playboy model and sex tape victim, I can see why she might rebel against the whole bombshell thing and go the other way.

It’s a shame that ageing is still an insult used to towards women. The entertainment industry is especially brutal towards women for this and in an ideal world, we’d start to see women looking their age and not pressured into plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures so they can compete against younger women.

Imo

I do think that long hair (tbf, healthy long hair) makes a woman look younger

That said, look at frankie bridge, she nails short hair, so agree it doesn't apply to everyone

Although I think thay in the case of Pamela, I did prefer her longer hair

Lavenderandbrown · 10/08/2025 14:57

I agree op it IS a hard look for most of us to pull off. Just like her bay watch red bathing suit lifeguard wearing makeup and her getting married in white bikini with captains hat look are impossible to emulate for most. She spent a lot of time with very heavy eye makeup lavish blonde hair and boobs and legs always on full display A full on glamour rock star wife look.

its fine to change your look as you want and as you age but it’s just another look of impossibility for most women.
when I got divorced I kept my marriage name because of her. She was on the show “the view” and was asked by Christie Brinkley a guest host why she was still going by Pamela Anderson Lee and she responded…well I want to match my children’s name. I thought ok if it’s good for PAL it’s good for me and it has been
