Pamela Anderson Reacts After Being Snubbed for Oscar Nomination

Fans were hoping the former “Baywatch” star would be in the Oscars mix.

Pamela Anderson, 57, star of the acclaimed movie The Last Showgirl, was snubbed for a Best Actress nomination on Thursday, but had a very gracious reaction. “Oh my gosh, it’s not something I ever expected. Doing the work is the win... we can lose sight of that sometimes in this whole crazy awards season, but it’s nice to be recognized, and it’s all a bonus,” she said, according to the New York Post. Anderson was nominated for a Golden Globe for her role as a washed-up showgirl and a Screen Actor’s Guild Award, which she called “really cool.” Anderson had high praise for the Showgirl script, saying, “I’ve never read a script that I responded to like that before—no one was sending me anything like this. I read it and I thought, I have to do this. It’s life or death. It’s really important.”
