AMERICAN GIRL PAMELA ANDERSON04/30/2008The former "Baywatch" beauty - who was born and raised in Canada - says her first act as an American was to visit the capital Washington D.C. to lobby against animal testing on behalf of PETA. Pamela - who lives in Los Angeles with her two sons, Brandon and Dylan - said: "Being a citizen excites me not just because I can vote, but because I can crack the whip on Capitol Hill to defend animals." It is unknown when Pammie was granted her US citizenship. The 40-year-old blonde is a devoted animal rights activist and recently revealed she had stopped wearing her beloved UGG sheepskin boots after she realized they were made from animals. She said: "I'm getting rid of my UGGs. I feel so guilty for that craze being started around my 'Baywatch' days - I used to wear them with my red swimsuit to keep warm - never realizing that they were SKIN!" "I thought they were shaved kindly. People like to tell me all the time that I started that trend - yikes!" 2 |
