BAYWATCH icon Pamela Anderson looks the business — even after getting snubbed for an Oscar. The 57-year-old received critical acclaim for her role as an ageing Vegas dancer in The Last Showgirl, and got a Golden Globes nomination. But she was not among the Academy Award Best Actress contenders announced on Thursday.

Looking on the bright side, she posed for mag Elle’s January digital cover — telling them: “I always say the win is in the work.”. A proud Pamela has revealed what it would mean to win the gong, 33 years after she burst on to our TV screens in her tiny red swimsuit as lifeguard CJ Parker.

Pamela is playing the lead role in The Last Showgirl, which is directed by a member of the prominent filmmaking Coppola family - Gia, the granddaughter of Francis Ford Coppola, and niece of Sofia. She said: “Gia was insistent that we were all going to see it together, and we’re going to see it on the big screen with an audience.

“And so all of us were in tears. She traumatised us.”. In the film, Pamela plays the lead role of Shelly, and she was so desperate to prove herself as a serious actress that she knew she had nothing to lose and everything to gain by giving the part her all.
