Pamela Anderson 'sued for $22.5m by ex-boyfriend for condos loss'

Pamela Anderson and ex-boyfriend Laurence Hallier are engaged in a legal battle over a Las Vegas condominium endorsement.

The former Baywatch actress reportedly signed a deal in 2006 to make a series of promotional appearances for Hallier's Panorama Towers high-rise luxury homes in exchange for a condominium of her own.

Anderson eventually filed a $1m (£624,883) suit against her former lover, claiming that Hallier was unable to secure her a dwelling at the Panorama Towers and had agreed to pay her the sum in return.

Hallier has now alleged in his own countersuit that Anderson failed to live up to her endorsement agreement by refusing to make several public appearances as stipulated in her contract, TMZ reports.

He is contending that Anderson's failure to promote Panorama Towers resulted in a significant loss of sales and is seeking $22.5m (£14m) in damages from the star.

A rep for Anderson has declined to offer any comment.
Laurence and Anderson apparently dated on and off for several years, before finally spitting in 2010.

Anderson is PETA 'Person of the Year'

Pamela Anderson has been crowned 'Person of the Year' by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

The actress was recognised by the animal rights organisation for her extensive work in the field during 2010, reports WENN.

Anderson spent the year campaigning for pet adoption, taking part in anti-leather advocacy in India and speaking to students at Oxford University.

She also appeared in a video for PETA which was subsequently banned in several international airports.

"For years, Anderson has been penning letters and posing in ads for PETA UK's American affiliate in order to raise awareness of cruelty to animals and demonstrate how easy it is to avoid contributing to animal suffering," a spokesperson for the group said in a statement.

Anderson PETA ad banned in Hong Kong

A racy animal rights advert featuring Pamela Anderson has been banned from another airport after officials in Hong Kong deemed the promo too risque.

Anderson is seen posing as a scantily-clad member of airport security staff in the clip for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). She is shown stripping passengers, including Jackass star Steve-O and comic Andy Dick, of their leather, fur and other animal products as they pass through security checks.

It was banned from Logan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts last month and now chiefs at Hong Kong's airport have refused to screen the ad, because it was "considered inappropriate" and might offend some visitors, reports the AFP.

The promo was banned from all three New York City airports by officials last year amid fears it was not suitable for passengers with young children.

Pamela cried and was sick when she first posed naked

She may come across as extremely bold, but Pamela Anderson cried and was sick when she first posed naked for Playboy magazine.

The former ‘Baywatch’ babe was stunned when the adult publication asked her to bare all for them but she quickly overcame her nerves about stripping off in public.

“I was so confused. I told my mom about the offer and she said, ‘Do it. I’d do it,’” Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

“I was so shy I was sick. They got the cover in the first roll of film because I was in tears thinking, ‘Oh my God, this woman, she touched my boob, this is not for me.’

“And then, after a while shooting, I became so comfortable they had to stop before I walked out of the studio door nude,” she added.
