Pamela Anderson Is Radiant in Off-the-Shoulder Gown as She Embraces Natural Look at Academy Museum Gala

Pamela Anderson arrived in style to the Fourth Annual Academy Museum Gala.

On Saturday, Oct. 19, The Last Showgirl star, 57, showed off an understatedly elegant look at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, where she once again leaned in to her natural beauty, seeming to keep her glam to a minimum.

Anderson wore a black off-the-shoulder gown from The Row that featured short sleeves in a textured woollen fabric, as she carried a foldover clutch in matching black. She wore her hair in a sleek low ponytail and appeared to wear only a slick of clear lip gloss. At the event, the actress posed alongside the likes of John Travolta on the red carpet, who looked dapper in a dark green jacket, black turtle neck top and black pants.

Anderson's use of less of make-up continues to follow her make-up free philosophy of recent years.

Her appearance at the gala comes after she was seen earlier this week in N.Y.C. for the Giorgio Armani fashion show.

She also recently stepped out in another statement look at the 20th Zurich Film Festival in Switzerland as she wore a baby pink dress and a coordinating shawl. During the Friday, Oct. 4 event, she was joined by The Last Showgirl director Gia Coppola, as she accepted this year's Golden Eye Award honoring the Baywatch alum's decades in the industry.

"It's never too late, even though it's a challenge, to change people's hearts and minds," Anderson said in a speech, referencing her Baywatch years at the festival. "And I'm humbled that the red bathing suit is etched into pop culture."

"So please join me in celebrating this new chapter," Anderson added. "Let me try to change your mind. My life is an open book. I have no secrets."

When named Glamour's global Women of the Year earlier this month, Anderson opened up about wearing less makeup — a decision she first embraced publicly in September 2023 during Paris Fashion Week. “I’ve just done it and I’ve played with it,” Anderson told the outlet for a digital cover. “I’ve nothing against makeup, but I felt like it just looked better on me in my 20s than it did now."

“You’re going to hit a crossroads in your 50s, and you go, Am I going to chase youth? Am I going to be miserable? Or am I going to be self-accepting? And it’s a practice," she added. "And it’s hard to say that you’re attempting all this if you’re still doing the red carpets and the covers of magazines plastered in makeup.”

Honoring Paul Mescal, Rita Moreno and Quentin Tarantino, the gala is once again set to raise money for the museum's exhibitions, education initiatives and public programming. This year's event is co-chaired by entrepreneur Dr. Eric Esrailian, Salma Hayek, Nicole Kidman, Eva Longoria and Tyler Perry.

During the event, Mescal is set to be presented the Vantage Award, which honors "an emerging artist or scholar who is helping to contextualize and challenge dominant narratives around cinema," per the museum's website. Separately, Moreno will receive the night's Icon Award, while Tarantino will take home the Luminary Award.

“The Academy Museum Gala celebrates the power, global impact, and indelible importance of cinema, and I am thrilled we can gather for a fourth year and honor these three amazing artists—Rita Moreno, Quentin Tarantino, and Paul Mescal—whose groundbreaking achievements, filmmaking influence, and demonstrated versatility will continue to inspire generations of artists and filmmakers,” incoming Academy Museum Director and President, Amy Homma, said in a pre-event statement.
