Biography
A native of Canada, Lee was born on Vancouver Island, and later
moved to the city of Vancouver. It was while she attended a British
Columbia Lions football game that Lee was "discovered" in a most
unusual way. Dressed in a Labatt's Beer T-shirt, her image was
transmitted on the stadium's wide screen. The fans cheered the
beautiful girl, and she was brought down to the 50-yard line and
introduced to the appreciative crowd. As a result, she was signed
to a commercial contract with Labatt's and became the company's
"Blue Zone" girl. The campaign was so popular that other
commercials and advertising assignments for Lee soon followed. Due
to the recognition from these commercials she was soon approached
to do her first cover for Playboy magazine. Pamela has since gone
on to grace the cover an astounding five times, more than any other
woman in the magazine's history. With the success and recognition
she garnered from Playboy, Lee soon moved to Los Angeles where she
spent two seasons in the top-ten ABC Television hit series "Home
Improvement" as Lisa, the Tool Time Girl. It was on "Home
Improvement" that she captured the attention and affection of
viewing audiences nationwide. At the same time, Lee was cast as
'C.J. Parker' on the internationally successful series "Baywatch, "
but because of the impossible schedule of working on two hit shows,
she eventually left "Home Improvement" and remained full-time on
"Baywatch." She now stars on one of the most phenomenally popular
television programs of all time, which is seen in 140 countries
worldwide. Recently, Lee made the transition into the feature film
arena, starring in Dark Horse Entertainment's action comedy "Barb
Wire". Distributed by Gramercy Films, "Barb Wire" was released in
the spring of 1996. In addition, Lee was featured in the CBS
movie-of-the-week, "Deader Than Ever", a hip and updated Mike
Hammer mystery, co-starring Rob Estes. She recently co-starred in
the television movie "The Evolution of Mr. E.", adapted from the
H.G. Wells short story, where she portrayed a quirky
sculptor/artist. Pamela is was wed to Motley Crue drummer Tommy
Lee, and the couple had two children. However, the couple divorced
in early 1998.
