Blondi sekspommi Pamela Andersoni teati 1990. aastatel kogu maailmas. Pärast seda, kui ta Kanadas ühe jalgpallimängu ajal publiku seast avastati, paisati ta kiiresti superstaari staatusesse - temast sai Playboy kõige populaarsem kaane- ja postritüdruk ning Hollywoodi glamuuri ja seksuaalse veetluse sümbol. Ometi kujunes see Pamela Anderson, keda me arvame end tundvat, pigem juhuslike sündmuste kui hoolikalt läbimõeldud sammude tulemusena. "Armastusega, Pamela" on tema tõeline lugu. Lugu sellest, kuidas väikelinna tüdruk oma unistuste sasipuntrasse takerdus.Kasvades üles Vancouveri saarel noorte, taltsutamatu loomuga ja seda ise adumata stiilsete vanemate lapsena, möödus Pamela lapsepõlv küll viletsates oludes, kuid temas kujunes väga sügav armastus looduse vastu. Tema maailma täitsid ühiskonna poolt tõrjutud elusolendid, väljamõeldud sõbrad ja abi vajavad loomad. Aja jooksul sai Pamela oma loomulikust häbelikkusest jagu ja tema rahutu kujutlusvõime lennutas ta sellisesse ellu, millest vähesed unistadagi oskavad. Viimaks jõudis ta välja Playboy villasse ja Hollywoodi.Kuulsuse kasvades leidis Pamela end olukorrast, kus temast oli saanud kollase ajakirjanduse sihtmärk. See oli aeg, mil paparatsode põhitaktika oli inimese maine ja enesekuvandi hävitamine.Pamela liikus elus väärikalt edasi, leides tuge armastusest kunsti ja kirjanduse vastu ning ammutades eneseusku emadusele pühendumisest ja aktivismist. Nüüd, kus Pamelal on seljataga meeldejääv roll Roxie'na Broadway etenduses "Chicago" ning ta elab taas oma lapsepõlvesaarel, räägib ta meile oma loo. See on lugu allasurumatust vabast vaimust, kes naaseb koju ja avastab end igal sammul üha uuesti. "Armastusega, Pamela", mille ilmeka proosateksti vahele on pikitud originaalluule read, on mõtlik, mitmekihiline ja unustamatu memuaarteos.

Den blonde skønhed var allestedsnærværende i 1990’erne. Efter hun blev spottet på tilskuerpladserne til en american football-kamp, gik det stærk for hende. Hun blev Playboys foretrukne covermodel, og gennem serien Baywatch blev hun selve symbolet på Hollywoods glamour og seksualitet. Men hvad sker der, når man mister grebet om sit eget liv og offentlighedens billede af en ikke stemmer overens med virkeligheden?Tabloidpressen og paparazzierne jagtede hende aggressivt og afslørede de mest intime og ufordelagtige detaljer om hendes liv. Pamela var ulykkelig over offentlighedens fejlagtige opfattelse af, hvem hun var, og midt i alt virvaret mistede hun kontrollen over sin egen historie. Med denne bog tager hun magten tilbage og fortæller sin egen historie om en stærk, selvsikker og kreativ kvinde, der nægtede at lade medierne reducere hende til et sexsymbol.”En pikant historie, der indeholder nogle virkelig skøre episoder, ?men Andersons gode hjerte mærkes bag det hele.”– Kirkus ReviewsAndersons selvbiografi skildrer et mere sundt og frigjort menneske, der adskiller sig fra det gængse billede af hende.”–The Washington PostUddrag af bogenBaywatch blev ved med at ringe. Min kæreste, David Charvet, tog til audition, og jeg indvilligede i at tage med ham. David var gudesmuk – de var heldige at have ham der, og han ville rigtig gerne være skuespiller. Casteren åd ham rå og kiggede så forbi ham hen på mig og spurgte, om jeg var den Pamela Anderson. Hende, som aldrig dukkede op. Forsigtigt sagde jeg, at ja, det var jeg. Producerne kom ud og tilbød mig et job lige på stedet. David fik også sin rolle, selvom jeg ikke tror, at han var glad for, at de også ansatte mig. David vidste, at det ville være slutningen på vores forhold på en eller anden måde. Jeg prøvede at fortælle ham, at det ikke ville ændre noget, men han havde ret. Vi holdt ikke længe.Producerne ville vide mere om mig for at kunne skabe en karakter. Vi talte om min bedstefar, og hvordan jeg elskede havet, dyr, krystaller, hvordan jeg kunne føle energi. Det var sådan, C.J., eller Casey Jean, blev til. Den bohemeagtige, frie sjæl, som elskede røgelse og stearinlys, en healer og dyrehvisker. Et sandt spejlbillede af mig.Om forfatteren Pamela Anderson (f. 1967) begyndte sin karriere som model i hjemlandet Canada, men flyttede i 1989 til USA for at blive model i Playboy. Efter en mindre rolle i en sitcom fik hun i 1992 sit gennembrud som C.J. Parker i tv-serien Baywatch. Efterfølgende har hun medvirket i en række film og tv-shows. I sit virke som aktivist kæmper hun bl.a. for dyrerettigheder.

”Ehkäpä tarinani saa vastakaikua – pikkukaupungin tyttö, joka jotenkin sotkeutui omiin unelmiinsa.”Pamela Anderson kertoo omaelämäkerrassaan, miten ujosta, eläinrakkaasta tytöstä tuli puolivahingossa maailman tunnetuin seksisymboli sekä miten hän säilytti järkensä ja uskonsa ihmisiin hullunmyllyssä nimeltä Hollywood.Pamela Anderson varttui Vancouver Islandilla Kanadassa villin luonnon ympäröimänä teinivanhempiensa sekä suomea puhuneen lempeän isoisänsä kanssa. Eläinrakkaan poikatytön matka tähtiin alkoi, kun televisiokamera osui häneen paikallisessa jalkapallo-ottelussa. Nuori Pamela muutti Hollywoodiin, esiintyi Playboyssa, sai roolin Baywatch-tv-sarjassa, tuli äidiksi sekä rakastui ja erosi rokkari Tommy Leestä koko maailman seuratessa sivusta. Kaikilla oli mielipide Pamelasta, kaikki halusivat palan Pamelaa. Anderson palasi taannoin takaisin kotiseudulleen, puutarhanhoidon ja lukemisen pariin. Siellä hän myös kirjoitti eriskummallisen tarinansa, joka on täynnä valoa ja varjoja, mutta ennen kaikkea lapsenomaista ihmetystä arvaamattoman elämän edessä.Pamela Anderson on kanadalainen näyttelijä. Pamela Anderson -säätiön kautta hän edistää sydäntään lähellä olevia asioita, mukaan lukien valtamerten, sademetsien sekä haavoittuvassa asemassa olevien eläinten suojelua. Pamelan suurin ylpeyden lähde on ollut äitinä oleminen pojilleen Brandon Thomasille ja Dylan Jaggerille.

Pamela Anderson var överallt under 1990-talet. Hon upptäcktes på läktaren under en fotbollsmatch och lanserades snart som en av Playboys omslagsmodeller. Men den ikoniska Pamela Anderson vi tror oss känna skapades av tillfälligheter. Hon övervann sin blyghet och blev en superstjärna. Baksidan: paparazziblixtar som inte gick att undkomma. I Love, Pamela Den officiella biografin berättar Pamela Anderson för första gången sin historia med egna ord. Det ikoniska "blonda bombnedslaget" som i själva verket inte är blond. Historien om en småstadstjej som trasslade in sig i sin egen dröm, men hittade fristad i sin kärlek till konst och litteratur, sitt moderskap och sin aktivism. PAMELA ANDERSON är en internationell ikon som arbetar med både underhållning och aktivism. Genom sin stiftelse Pamela Anderson Foundation är hon engagerad i hav- och regnskogsbevarande samt skydd av utsatta människor och djur. Att vara mamma till sönerna Brandon Thomas Lee och Dylan Jagger Lee har alltid varit Pamelas första prioritet och största källa till stolthet. Pressröster:"Bländande."- New York Times"En saftig historia med några riktigt galna ögonblick, men ändå lyser Andersons goda hjärta igenom."- Kirkus Reviews"Kvinnan bakom den ikoniska bilden avslöjas i denna intima och välskrivna resa till självförverkligande."- Library Journal "En eftertänksam memoarbok. Denna poetiska och frisinnade berättelse speglar både Andersons naivitet och hennes vildsinthet."- Publishers Weekly

TO LIVE AND DREAM IS A WICKED DANCE. MY DREAMS OFTEN COME TRUE- A CURSE, AND A BLESSING. PAMELA ANDERSON's blond bombshell image was ubiquitous in the 1990s. Discovered in the stands during a Canadian football game, she was quickly launched into superstardom, becoming Playboy's favorite cover girl and an emblem of Hollywood glamour and sex appeal. Yet the Pamela Anderson we think we know was created through happenstance rather than careful cultivation. Love, Pamela brings forth her true story, that of a small town girl getting tangled up in her own dreams. Growing up on Vancouver Island, the daughter of young, wild, and unwittingly stylish parents, Pamela lived a hardscrabble childhood but developed a deep love for nature, populating her world with misfits, apparitional friends, and injured animals. Eventually overcoming her natural shyness, Pamela let her restless imagination propel her into a life few can dream of, in Hollywood and the Playboy Mansion. As her star rose, she found herself becoming a fixture of tabloid fodder, at the height of an era when paparazzi tactics were bent on destroying a person's image and self-esteem. Pamela forged ahead with grace, finding sanctuary in her love of art and literature, and emerged a devoted mother and activist. Now, having returned to the island of her childhood, after a memorable run starring as Roxie in Chicago on Broadway, Pamela is telling her story, a story of an irrepressible free spirit coming home and discovering herself anew at every turn. With vivid prose interspersed with bursts of original poetry, Love, Pamela is a pensive, layered, and unforgettable memoir.

An unlikely pair of voices-the world's most recognizable beauty icon and "America's rabbi"-comes together to diagnose how meaningful, passionate sex is on the decline in Western culture, and what is necessary to save it. Sex is dying in America. Inundated with sex and starved for it, obsessed with it yet clueless about it, we are slowly forgetting how to make love. The crisis of modern sexuality is seen in high divorce rates, in the degradation of sexuality through pornography, and tasteless displays of empty, counterfeit erotica. Most of all, it's seen in sexless marriages and platonic relationships where cybersex has become more addictive than the real thing. Sex has become so trivialized, coarsened, and vulgarized that couples no longer feel its pull. The once powerful and irresistible magnetism of sex is being diluted and drained.The authors propose replacing the 1960s' sexual revolution with a new sensual revolution, a rediscovery of intimacy that encourages and ennobles human relationships, elevates healthy lust, and gets us from looking up from the glowing screens of our smartphones to the people around us, most especially the people we love the most. LUST FOR LOVE embraces the idea that what our most important relationships need most is lust. It is necessary to rediscover what's sexy again, how to bring back romance, and to understand that in addition to love, we need lust to repair our unfulfilling sex lives and broken relationships. LUST FOR LOVE proposes a return to what lovemaking was always meant to be: a desire to know and experience another person in the deepest possible way.
