Pamela Anderson is embracing change with a new hairstyle transformation ahead of the 2025 Met Gala. The 57-year-old actress and activist surprised fans with a striking new look in New York City, showing off a new sleek, chin-length bob.
The 'Baywatch' star attended the Tory Burch Foundation’s Founders Breakfast honoring Martha Stewart. Pamela, who is known for her signature blonde hair, showcased the new look and posed for photos at the event.
The star's hair was partially hidden under a beige bucket hat that shadowed her eyes. The new hairstyle was paired with a minimalist beige ensemble, which consisted of a wide-neck long-sleeve top and flowing wide-leg pants.
The 'Last Showgirl' star has carved her own path in Hollywood, most recently with a more natural makeup-free approach on red carpets and special appearances. Pamela took a drastic departure from her classic aesthetic, and she has been praised by many for her new life chapter.
Fans of the actress think her new look could be a hint for her attendance at the 2025 Met Gala, which is set to take place May 5. The star attended the exclusive event last year wearing a flowing Oscar de la Renta gown and a dramatic faux leather headpiece by Noel Stewart.
Makeup artist Pat McGrath was behind her radiant beauty look for the 2024 Gala. “Pam wanted to wear makeup again for the Met Gala, so we created a look that acknowledged her natural beauty but then took it to the next level,” McGrath shared in a press release.
“We wanted to explore the next incarnation of natural — an elevation of natural — and to show how you can wear a full face of makeup but in a very fresh and beautiful way.”
Just last December, she debuted blunt bangs at a screening of her acclaimed movie. She posed in a structured brown Bottega Veneta dress featuring cape-like shoulders and subtle corset detailing, paired with the brand’s Canalazzo pumps.
Pamela talked about her evolving style during an interview with People at the 2024 Gotham Film Awards. “I mean — I wear — I love to wear makeup too sometimes,” she said. “It has a time and a place. I just feel in my personal life, it just didn't really make sense.”
