Describing the origins of this “little monster,” Anderson identified it as her younger self – “Little Pamela Anderson” – who harbored a mischievous and creative spirit, yearning to break free from her shyness and live boldly.
“I was painfully shy … I wouldn’t [even] wear a bathing suit … I knew I had to jump off a bridge to get to … [release it],” she confessed, recounting her reluctance to embrace her potential.
