Pamela Anderson isn’t holding back about how good it feels to receive high praise for her new film The Last Showgirl — especially after the Hulu series Pam & Tommy, which was released nearly three years ago, was made without her knowledge, she says.

Anderson plays an aging Vegas showgirl in the new movie from Gia Coppola. For so many reasons, it's a role only she could meaningfully deliver.

The actress and model stars in Gia Coppola’s drama, which also features Jamie Lee Curtis and Brenda Song, about a performer in a Las Vegas revue that is about to end its decades-long run.
