This Pamela Anderson American Music Awards Look Has People Talking To This Day
Pamela Anderson is never one to shy away from a bold and daring look. The "Baywatch" star's style has evolved but has never dulled. Anderson dominated pop culture in the '90s and the aughts with looks that cleverly combined scandal with fashion — a tactic that always had people talking. One look in particular stands out to this day as something that might have been ahead of its time in 2003.

It can't be helped that a little black dress can steal the show every time. If there's one person who can make an LBD iconic, it's Pamela Anderson. She arrived at the 2003 American Music Awards wearing a short, black dress with very high slits. She paired the dress with open-toed crystal heels and her signature blond bombshell hair and smoky eye makeup. The only thing more provocative than her dress was who she arrived with. Anderson walked the AMAs red carpet with none other than her now-ex-husband Kid Rock. The two were famously in an on-again, off-again relationship that consisted of four weddings and only four months of actual marriage.
Pamala Anderson is a prime example of gracefully changing her style
Pamela Anderson's style has grown with her over the years, and she continues to turn heads. Instead of her signature smoky eye, Anderson now proudly goes makeup-free. She debuted her bare face in 2023 during Paris Fashion Week and hasn't stopped since, embracing her natural features as she ages. "I think people are starting to look more alike these days," she told People in 2025 regarding her new makeup-free look. "I still have fun, but I don't want to look like anybody else. I want to look like me."
Anderson's fashion has gone through an incredible transformation over the years. The star's style has certainly evolved from her "Baywatch" days. In 2025, fans were able to see just how much Anderson has changed and how fashionable she still is while promoting "The Naked Gun" and "The Last Showgirl." Nowadays, Anderson seems to enjoy floor-length, classic gowns, paired, of course, with her naturally beautiful bare face and her iconic blond hair. Once a blond bombshell, always a blond bombshell, barefaced or not.
