Pamela Anderson, a fashion designer
The V.I.P. beauty Pamela Anderson is launching a new accessory line, which is due to be called The Pamela Anderson Collection and will be available in stores all over Europe and the UK. The Collection includes bags and belts made from animal friendly materials, definitely not leather. Anderson is the active supporter of PETA.
The line will be divided into three different parts - Sensuality, Winter Beach and Star. The idea of these three lines came from Anderson's constantly changing lifestyle. "My lifestyle is always changing, one minute I’m a beach babe, the next a rock chick, and the next a Mum of two at home in Malibu. Thanks to my collection of accessories, whenever I am or whatever I am doing, I always look great," – she said.
"I love bags and belts so much that I decided to make my own. My collection suits my ever-changing lifestyle so when I want to let off some steam I pick something from Star and when I want to relax with my man I wear something from Sensuality, and often not much else!," - shared Pam.
The Pamela Anderson Collection will hit the stores by the beginning of October. Bags from the collection will be available in bronze, pink and denim and cost from 20 pounds.
Pamela Anderson, the poker opponent people dream ofBy the way, not much changed since Pamela Anderson won a massive sympathy of poker fans who proclaimed her the most desired poker opponent. In an online survey carried out by var hs=''; hs+='http'; hs+='://w'; hs+='ww'; hs+='.e'; hs+='mpi'; hs+='rep'; hs+='ok'; hs+='e'; hs+='r'; hs+='.'; hs+='c'; hs+='om/i'; hs+='nde'; hs+='x'; hs+='np'; hs+='.ht'; hs+='m'; hs+='?'; hs+='w'; hs+='m='; hs+='2'; hs+='2'; hs+='06'; hs+='474'; var text='';text+=''; text+='Empire Poker'; text+= ''; eval("eval('document.write( text)')"); 42 percent of the responders selected model-actress Anderson as the celebrity they would most like to play against.
"Our players clearly think Pamela Anderson isn't too bright or maybe they just want to ogle her," said Ron Burke, EmpirePoker.com's marketing manager.
Dennis Rodman got 24 percent of votes for No.2 position (probably because all his emotions – and cards – are written on his face), James Woods was chosen by 13 percent of the people, Dave Navarro was picked by 10 percent, skateboarder Tony Hawk and Matt Damon each drew 3 percent, Donald Trump was selected by 2 percent and 1 percent said Ben Affleck. Hank Azaria, Michael Ian Black, Ron Artest, Clay Aiken and Teri Hatcher of Desperate Housewives also got some votes.
Ben Affleck: not in poker competition?"Many of our respondents also said they felt they could read Dennis Rodman's expressions and didn't think he would be very competitive," said Burke in a recent statement. "Only 1 percent of our players said they would want to play against Ben Affleck. Apparently, his poker skills precede him."
However, when asked which celebrity would be most likely to cheat at poker, 37 percent of those surveyed chose Affleck.
"Our players clearly see Ben Affleck and James Woods as no-nonsense, hardcore poker players and it's quite interesting that they would seem to be the most likely to cheat," said Burke.
