Signed, sealed, delivered - Pamela Anderson is Vancouver Islands.
Anderson is from Ladysmith and left her mark in Victoria Monday (March 6) with a book signing at the Indigo in Mayfair Shopping Centre.
Fans lined up for hours at the event to get copies of AndersonBԪַs memoir, Love, Pamela signed.
Some dedicated people came as early as 5 a.m., and many others were left disappointed as only around 100 fans were able to get the wristband required for the signing.
Nessa Pullman arrived early enough to get her book signed.
BԪַI got here at 7:10 a.m. and IBԪַm really glad I did,BԪַ Pullman said. BԪַThere was already a line all the way around the corner to L.L.Bean. I was in the last section of people who got in so I almost could have missed it.BԪַ
Mandy Sloan got in line at 7:30 a.m. and wasnBԪַt able to get a wristband for the event.
BԪַI thought I was getting here earlier enough and being cautious but I still stuck around the mall and got some photos,BԪַ Sloan said. BԪַI lined up for like two hours.BԪַ
Mark Nagra took the day off and came from Nanaimo for the event and had 16 copies of Love, Pamela signed and says he will give copies away.
BԪַI think she was super sweet and kind, and itBԪַs nice to have that kind of energy around you,BԪַ Nagra said. BԪַI have a friend of mine in the hospital whoBԪַs a fan so IBԪַm going to give a book to him right after I leave. IBԪַm going to give some to family, employees and friends and make them happy. It was also an opportunity to say hi to another vegan and support her. We support the locals as much as we can.BԪַ
Pullman lives in Victoria and says it means a lot to her that Anderson is from Vancouver Island.
BԪַI think itBԪַs really cool,BԪַ Pullman said. BԪַIt just speaks to the type of people that grow up on the island. She stayed really humble. She never really lost that small-town feel even though she got super famous. Most people probably would have forgotten their foundation. I feel like she really kept it strong.BԪַ
Love, Pamela and AndersonBԪַs Netflix documentary Pamela: A Love Story, were both released Jan. 31.
BԪַI read a bunch of the book yesterday,BԪַ Nagra said. BԪַI loved that start of it. ItBԪַs awesome. I look forward to reading the rest of it. If I didnBԪַt have to get up early for the signing, I would have kept reading it.BԪַ
The memoir and the documentary reveal details about AndersonBԪַs life, including her romances and her start as a Playboy model.
BԪַI watched the film five times,BԪַ Pullman said. BԪַIt was so good. I found it really eye-opening just how down-to-earth she was. IBԪַm excited to read the book.BԪַ
