Pamela Anderson Talks About How She Relates to Her Character in The Last Showgirl
In a recent interview with Deadline, Anderson shared how her own life experiences informed her portrayal of Shelly. Anderson explains, “I couldn’t have played this character if I didn’t have the life I had. And I couldn’t even look back in hindsight and think these things I may have done differently if I didn’t have the life experience to get me to this place where I feel that way. People sometimes say, why did you make this choice? Why did you make that? So we’re all doing the best we can in the moment and with the tools that we have and the experience that we have, and we’re all fighting in this invisible bubble.” She goes on to add, “And even having children. That really resonated with me because having children in this business and having children and working, a working mom and children, we all carry this guilt and we’re all going to beg for forgiveness to our adult children.”
The Last Showgirl premieres on December 13 and is already generating buzz for its insightful storytelling and Anderson’s powerful performance. With its combination of personal reflection and universal themes, the movie promises to be a standout addition to Anderson’s filmography and a poignant exploration of life’s unexpected turns.
