Not wearing makeup is our natural state. How is that a shtick or cloying?

This^. It's refreshing to see a celebrity trying to look like a human not a Kardashian doll.

+1 Not everyone admires fish lips, blow up butts, and bubble boobs.

All of which Pamela Anderson proudly sported not that long ago.

And good for her for moving past that.

All the more reason for her to be coming out loud and proud with no makeup. If she wanted to prove to herself that she was more than just a pretty face and big boobs, she has done that in spades.

The last decade of her career has been informed by taking her interests and talents that have nothing to do with her face or body and doing the things that she loves and monetizing them successfully - cofounding a clean, vegan beauty company, having a gardening show, doing Broadway and getting a lead role in a comedy in her late 50s, well after the public knows exactly what she looks like without any artifice.

Her book and her documentary are telling her story on her terms. I’m very happy for her that she’s having this moment.

This is horrific? What is wrong with you? Please seek therapy before you destroy yourself with plastic surgery.

Yes, this is how she made her career. And she was literally the pin up girl for impossible beauty standards. She had a heavy hand in participating in the creating and maintaining the standards she appears to now reject - or at least can no longer hold up herself. I have yet to see her acknowledge this. And until then, no, I’m not going to clap for this “au natural” no-eyebrow look.

She is really trying to strip all of that away and it is making a statement that she’s still doing red carpets, still out in the public and working and is in a viable person in her late 50s without trying to look glamorous without being known for her looks.

I recently read Brooke Shields’s memoir, and she says that periodically she meets usually a man who is surprised that she’s out and about and bordering on angry that she has gotten old. They say the most insane things to her and her theory on why is that she was known as this gorgeous young woman and that seeing her age makes them feel old and reminds them that they too are aging.

You don’t have to like it or agree with Pamela going make up free, but it is interesting that people are having strong reactions to it, both positive and negative.

I would rather she made an actual statement using words about how her using her looks in that women was harmful to her and women generally. Otherwise, it reads like she is just trying out her next shock-look because she can no longer pull off the sex bomb look.

You make it sound like she was some sort of victim. She wasn't.

She never had Kardashian fish lips and a blow up balloon butt(s).

+1 The Kardashian rear ends are grotesque.

Oh, please. She had a blow up everything and you know it. And some of you are pretending she didn’t very much seek to be sexualized - spare us! Of course she did. She wasn’t some kind of victim who was made to dress a certain way.

I mean, great that she is no longer living that lifestyle, but cut out the revisionist history that she was somehow forced to look and behave a certain way.

DP. While I didn’t write that, you must be joking if you think this looks good. A small amount of tasteful makeup would do wonders here - it’s a red carpet event, not working outside in her garden.

She looks great for her age, just not an artificial made up beauty. Her eyebrows are gone due to over plucking of decades as many of women her age and she isn't drawing artificial ones.

+1. Alas, the plucking was standard back then and it doesn't always grow back.

+1000
That was literally her mission! No one forced her to be a human blowup doll. Give the woman some agency.
