Pamela Anderson, at 57, received the prestigious Golden Eye Award at the Zurich Film Festival on October 5, 2024, marking a significant recognition of her decades-long career in the entertainment industry.

Festival director Christian Jungen praised her performance as 'oscar-worthy' and described it as the 'Comeback of the Year,' highlighting her current 'authentic vulnerability'.

During her acceptance speech, Anderson expressed surprise at her accomplishments, stating, 'I never thought I would be on stage, receiving an award like that,' and conveyed enthusiasm for future projects.

Reflecting on her past, she discussed her time on Baywatch and expressed a desire to change perceptions about her, emphasizing that her career is far from over.

She highlighted her decision to not wear makeup at Paris Fashion Week as a pivotal moment in her transformation, which she described as a release and freedom.

Despite her minimal makeup approach, Anderson added a pop of color for the festival, wearing a baby pink caped gown adorned with a diamond brooch.

The Last Showgirl, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, is set for release later this year, and Anderson will also star in a Naked Gun remake scheduled for July 2025.

Anderson was honored for her diverse career and her role as Shelley in Gia Coppola's film, The Last Showgirl, which tells the story of a dancer whose Las Vegas show is canceled after over 30 years.

The film resonates deeply with Anderson, as she felt uniquely suited for the role after reading the script, and it marks her first acting role since 2022.

Anderson has embraced a natural look in recent years, discussing the challenges of self-acceptance in her fifties and her decision to adopt a minimal-makeup philosophy.

Her look was complemented by stunning diamond earrings, and she shared a video on Instagram tagging Pandora jewelry, showcasing her embrace of elegance.

Having gained fame in the 1990s as a lifeguard in Baywatch, Anderson's public life has been marked by numerous relationships and divorces, yet she continues to evolve and redefine herself.
