Pamela Anderson turned heads at the 2025 Met Gala, stepping onto the blue carpet with a fresh hairstyle and a familiar face by her side, her son, Brandon Thomas Lee. The 57-year-old actress and activist, best known for her blonde look, debuted an edgy transformation.

The actress showed off her sleek, chin-length blonde bob paired with blunt bangs. The dramatic cut marked a bold departure from her signature beachy waves, with fans quickly commenting on her new look, with many describing it as a fashion risk.

The star attended the 2024 Met Gala wearing a flowing Oscar de la Renta gown and a dramatic faux leather headpiece by Noel Stewart. “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," Makeup artist Pat McGrath said about her look.
