Further Proof That Pam Really Is A Living Doll
Loose talk
The always unpredictable Drew Barrymore, indulging in some self-analysis: “I think mellowness comes out of my pores and my wildness is within.”
Would you believe … Baywatch Barbie?
The new edition of Mattel’s venerable plastic blonde bombshell is a dead ringer for “Baywatch” babe Pamela Anderson, complete with a sexy red tank-style swimsuit and a lifeguard costume.
She also comes packaged with tiny binoculars, a whistle on a rope, a Frisbee and a toy dolphin that emits dolphinlike sounds at the push of a button.
Unfortunately, there are yet no signs of a tattooed Tommy Lee drummer doll to keep his blushing bride company.
But there’s a nifty new Ken, featuring a pumped-up body and a miniature Yamaha Wave Runner that’s said to make “a groovy engine sound.” (Just keep him off Lake Coeur d’Alene, OK?)
Bring the party hats, and maybe he’ll don one
Johnny Depp turns 32 today.
Guess she and Barbie do have a lot in common
Stockholm department stores that displayed posters of Pamela Anderson selling swimsuits were sprayed with a foul-smelling juice in an apparent protest. A newspaper letter signed “Former Anorexics Fight Back” said the posters “encourage anorexic attitudes in women toward food and their bodies in order to arouse men.”
She’ll make more money sticking to the outside
Former Anderson co-star Nicole Eggert tells Entertainment Weekly that “being on ‘Baywatch’ was against everything I am morally … There’s much more inside of me, and I just want to be given a chance to show it.” In her upcoming movie, “Melissa,” Eggert says she appears topless only once.
Why, even Paul has been tempted a time or two
The aforementioned Ms. Barrymore, explaining to New York Newsday why she bared her breasts for David Letterman’s birthday: “It was definitely the most exhilarating minute of my life. Any woman who tells me she sat next to David’s desk and didn’t want to get up and dance for him, they’re lying - or just really different than me, and I can’t understand them.”
They barely waited until the mourning was over
Ghoul alert: When “Selena! The Phenomenal Life and Tragic Death of the Tejano Music Queen” made the New York Times best-seller list, Pocket Books publicists created an instant fiesta, ordering in tacos, enchiladas, guacamole and Mexican beer. Said one: “We found out at 9 in the morning and had the party at around noon.”
