CNN —Pamela Anderson says preparing for “The Last Showgirl” was a deeply personal experience. “I was able to bring a lot of my own personal experience, my long life of dealing with beauty and glamour and aging and reassessing life choices,” Anderson told Madison, speaking about the emotional preparation she did. “The Last Showgirl” stars Anderson as Shelly, a Las Vegas showgirl whose show abruptly closes after a 30-year-run, forcing her to face her future and plan for it head-on. In the Variety interview, Anderson went on to talk about her two sons Brandon and Dylan Lee, who she shares with her ex, Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee. But you need life experience to know that you would have done that differently,” Anderson said.
