Pamela Anderson, the voluptuous former Baywatch babe, is desperate to earn some legitimacy now that she has firmly entered her forties. Yes, forties. We are all getting old. There was a time, pre-Governator, when she even speculated on a future run for governor of California. As a Canadian born citizen, she could not set her sights on the White House, but I know I had a hearty laugh and I assume you did, too. Anderson had to fall back on the last refuge of the celebrity scrambling to justify her existence—activism.Anderson has chosen animal rights as her outrage de jour. In the past, she has railed against wearing fur, using animals in movies and television filming, and forcing animals to perform in circuses in spite of the fact she has taken her kids to the circus on a number of occasions. I might cut her some slack and chalk that up as a learning experience. Who knows when such people hear the voice instructing them to go save France?
Ah, but wait. Anderson has been a ardent supporter of PETA. She has recently donated her 2000 Dodge Viper to be auctioned off for the cause of animal rights. Her Dodge Viper, with its leather seats, leather interior, and leather covered steering wheel. Leather, as in cows, which are animals. I am curious at what point this fact may register on her. Or PETA, for that matter. Will they pass up the opportunity to sell the car since it violates their general principles?
