Acceptance speech for Vegan of the Year - Last Chances for Animals - Los Angeles - Oct 24th, 2015

Thank you Alexander

- Fellow crusaders, pirates, and beloved friends of the animal kingdom...  I am thrilled and honored to be 'Vegan of the Year'..

Finally ...after .. the long road of trial and error.
Variations of veggie, and veganism...It IS a destination - a practice.
A religion maybe ? A sensual, and blissful place.
That place of relief, that lives between your eyes - in meditation...Inspiration...
Compassion IS sexy.
Eating compassionately - is not only sensual… it something we can do as individuals… control what goes into our mouths... A good first step-  in doing our humble part, to save the world.
I have to tell you- I just made the most incredible vegan 'loaf"? not a fan of word loaf? But-  I made it-  with farrow, lentils, grated sweet potato, grated leeks. Fresh parsley, mushrooms..I soaked some walnuts..  added them to sauteed tomatoes and a bit of agave. Blended -in my cuisinart. then combined together - and threw in the oven as I was prepping the ‘loaf’ I baked a whole pumpkin. (for an hour)- I get so excited about cooking now— sorry
But I made pumpkin pie.!!
My breakfast this morning was a beautiful combination of my veggie loaf, sliced avocados,  red pepper hummus. It was beautiful to look at- You eat with your eyes first. I love my little online show- The Sensual Vegan. I'm kind of obsessed.
I have been Vegan for years - but, I have never felt better. 
3 days till I'm cured if hep C (99%) -
I feel like I'm getting 20 years back of my life. I'm going to make the best of it. I wish I could show you my fridge. I'm so proud of my mason Jars filled with filtered water, rosemary, lavender, ginger, lemon. My beauty water experiments...
Vegan is beautiful.
It's creative, It looks beautiful in your fridge. On your plate - and- it's beautiful for the soul, and the planet--. and, To be honored - for honoring the lives of others - is exciting--
I am grateful for all that LCA and everyone here does -
Beyond food.
Chris DeRose was the first Animal Activist I knew of. My first year on Baywatch. My Christmas card was my dog Star - wearing my Baywatch watch - the card read "Every few minutes an animal is lost to experimentation" .  I donated 5,000 dollars in honor of Baywatch cast and crew for their Christmas gift. They weren't sure even what that was- well- except Alexander Paul. She was a great influence on all of us- an activist, for the environment... I cant remember if it was Alexander or Mario Van Peebles mom - who would tell me... 1 sheet of toilet paper for a pee? 2 for a…..poop?
And - I know it was Alexander who was on everyone. about not taking too many napkins - recycling— she’d hunt you down if she saw any littering or excessive use of napkins— She was a force on the set... and, it’s so nice to see her continue the fight… and so nice for me to be apart of it..  we were good kids… I don’t know what happened — but life takes twists and turns--
It’s been a wild ride.
Even getting to be Vegan -
Don't beat yourself up. It's a journey.
From my experience- a 'Canadian vegetarian' still ate fish?
And - even with all the knowledge I had about the cruelty in slaughterhouses and Dairy industry.. I still could not figure out how to cook without butter?
Thank goodness there are many - much better - alternatives. I wanted to learn how to cook more vegan dishes - build my repertoire. I called my brother to film my cooking lessons- and that's the show-- It is so fun, organic in every way— It feels so good.
I am a very enthusiastic student— always- and I felt the need to share- the little tricks— the alternatives-- Ask the questions everyone wants to ask. Delahna and I love to talk about all the sexy benefits -
I can't help myself.
The energy, the love.

The LOVING...

All... is much better with a Vegan...Who needs cialis.?
I don't trust people who don't like onions. and, Definitely don't date them. Onions are GREAT for blood flow. If you know what I mean.

Thank you again.

I love you all!!!!  

Thank you

The California Coastal Commission

People have the power! I was thrilled to take part in this historic win for orcas last night:
http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-seaworld-orcas-20151008-story.html
The California Coastal Commission did right by orcas in requiring, as a condition of approval for the Blue World Project, that SeaWorld stop breeding them, which will ultimately end captivity for long-suffering orcas in California. SeaWorld has admitted that it intended to breed even more orcas to fill the new tanks, but the commission's action today ensures that no more orcas will be condemned to a non-life of loneliness, deprivation, and misery. SeaWorld is a sea circus, and the orcas are its abused elephants. PETA wants SeaWorld to stop building tanks and start emptying the ones they've got by sending the orcas to coastal sanctuaries, where they'd finally have some semblance of a natural life.

Hi, I’m Pamela Anderson. As a resident of California..(who grew up on Vancouver Island.- surrounded by natural wildlife like orcas, bald eagles in the habitats they thrive in and breed naturally..) I often look out at the beautiful ocean and wish the whales confined at SeaWorld had freedom as nature intended. 
SeaWorld’s proposed expansion is out of step with the times. L.A. has banned bullhooks used to beat elephants. San Francisco banned animal circuses altogether. And last month a judge upheld the government’s ruling barring a marine park from importing beluga whales from Russia, an issue I spoke about at a Russian forum, just before the ruling. Approving a permit for new awful orca tanks would be a major step back. 
Look closely at SeaWorld’s plan. It is designed to enhance the tourist experience—not the animals’ existence. SeaWorld says it would use the extra space to breed and imprison more orcas. Approving this project will mean immense suffering for the ocean’s most sophisticated animals. 
The construction alone will be very distressing to SeaWorld’s captive orcas. Only one of the existing tanks is being replaced, so the orcas will remain in the others and be subjected to constant loud machinery. For marine mammals who communicate through sonar vibrations, this is torture. SeaWorld’s own records reveal that construction stresses the whales out. 
SeaWorld is clinging desperately to the past, before people understood these intelligent animals. 
But we now know that captive orcas go insane - and suffer terrible depression - when they are separated from their babies- and their families. If SeaWorld truly cared about animals, they would move the orcas to much more affordable sea sanctuaries where they live some semblance of a normal life, feel the ocean currents, perhaps even communicate with their pods, even if they may never be released
As a resident of California, I urge you to please vote against SeaWorld’s Blue World project.

PCove series/ 2016
I know, I know.
I may be partly responsible for the 'beachy fluffy boot' craze. Back..  to Baywatch days.
I had no idea that animals suffered (and died) to make those boots.
It was at the beginning of my Activism career.
I think a lot of people never understood the cruelty that went into making shearling products— or even wool—
 I've been determined ...ever since - hence- redemption (my production company)-
This is the glamorous alternative -



"Pammies" are cruelty free. Made from recycled electronics.
Progressive fabrics - making use of waste- instead of harming animals.
This is my passion. to discover new compassionate, forward thinking fabrics- that are recycled… there is no reason to use animals for fashion, for food, for anything,  but love—

My goal is to get a pair of these on every body who enjoys the beach lifestyle- surfers, the world--everyone who enjoys the comfy-ness of slipping on something easy and warm, to bring their families to the beach, to the snow,  anywhere outdoors.  The boots are as stain and water resistant as they can be- but are  washable…too… get outside, get dirty…live...

Our message is…
Compassion is sexy.

Thank you for caring about animals, the environment and looking and feeling good.
These are a labor of love.
It's taken me this long...
To convince people - this is the future— stay tuned for more of my lifestyle brand— coming soon...
Take part in a sensual revolution.
Sensuality is a sexy kindness. Empathy. Realizing that every choice we make -effects others - all others— not just humans...
Thank you for choosing "Pammies"!!.
Girls and boys.
We don't discriminate.
enjoy...
With Love,
Pamela x
