Pamela Anderson Earns Golden Globe Nomination for “The Last Showgirl”

Son's advocacy and indie drama spark critical acclaim for '90s icon

Pamela Anderson has received a Golden Globe nomination for her starring performance in the indie film The Last Showgirl. This nomination represents a dramatic shift in how Hollywood perceives her, moving away from the stereotypes that have frequently defined her career.

The nomination follows years of deliberate career management by her son, Brandon Thomas Lee. He’s worked hard behind the scenes to change the industry’s opinion of his mother.

Gia Coppola’s “The Last Showgirl” was made in 18 days on a modest budget of slightly over $1 million. In the film, Anderson plays Shelly, a veteran Las Vegas dancer facing the abrupt shutdown of her long-running act. The story also follows her attempts to reunite with her estranged daughter, played by Billie Lourd. Critics have lauded Anderson’s performance, and industry figures such as Jamie Lee Curtis have publicly endorsed the project, joining primarily because of Anderson’s participation.

Brandon Lee, the film’s executive producer, expressed delight in his mother’s journey. “It means the culmination of a very long road and a lot of hard work,” he told me. This moment really only marks the beginning for her.”

Anderson nearly missed the film because her old agent rejected the script without first presenting it to her. Coppola persisted, finally connecting with Anderson through her son.

Anderson, 57, found personal meaning in her portrayal of Shelly. “I was able to bring a lot of my own experience,” she explained, reflecting on her life in beauty and glamour. Anderson, who rose to prominence as a Playboy model and gained global recognition as lifeguard C.J. Parker on “Baywatch,” has recently focused on recovering her story through several initiatives, including a memoir and a Netflix documentary by her son.

Brandon Lee’s participation in his mother’s career exceeds family dynamics. “My mission was to give my mom the opportunities she gave me as a child,” he told me. “At a certain point in your life, you become a protector.”

This defensive strategy has included declining lucrative chances that do not correspond with Anderson’s artistic development. Their efforts began to bear fruit with the publication of her memoir, “Love, Pamela,” and the documentary, “Pamela, a Love Story.” These projects contributed to changing public image. “She was no longer merely a sex symbol. “She was a human being, and I believe people were seeing her in a completely different light,” Brandon pondered.

Anderson’s metamorphosis goes beyond her work life. She now lives on Vancouver Island, where she enjoys a simpler lifestyle focused on gardening and self-discovery. “I went home to remember who I was,” she added, describing how she read the script for “The Last Showgirl” while tending to her vegetable garden. Despite her present popularity, she remains connected to her beginnings, joking about continuing to produce pickles even as she seeks new acting possibilities.

Anderson’s Golden Globe nomination appears to be just the beginning of his career comeback. Brandon said the caliber of parts available to his mother has substantially improved since “The Last Showgirl.” “It’s safe to say that you’ll see her on the big screen for some time,” he told me.

“The Last Showgirl” is due to hit theaters on January 10, potentially ushering in a new chapter in Anderson’s long career in entertainment.
