Pamela Anderson, known for her role in 'Baywatch,' has opened up about being underestimated by Hollywood and herself, especially during her appearance at the Toronto Film Festival promoting her new film, 'The Last Showgirl.' Reflecting on her career, she stated, 'I underestimated myself too,' emphasizing that the timing of her current opportunities feels surreal and fortuitous. The film, which premiered to enthusiastic applause, portrays Anderson as Shelley, a Las Vegas dancer facing the challenges of aging in a changing industry. Anderson's recent documentary, 'Pamela, A Love Story,' and her memoir, 'Love Pamela,' have contributed to her reinvention and the favorable reception of her new role. Director Gia Coppola was initially hesitant to cast Anderson but was convinced after viewing her documentary, leading to a strong collaborative effort. Anderson expressed gratitude for the chance to showcase a more multidimensional character in her latest project, stating, 'The stars have really aligned.'
