Happy 44th birthday Pamela Anderson! In honor of her special day, Breaking Celebrity News is toasting the former Baywatch babe with a special bikini photo feature, highlighting her hot body over the years.

The Canadian actress skyrocketed to international fame after she was chosen at Playboy’s Playmate of the Month in February 1990, following up her modeling gig with roles on Home Improvement and Baywatch.

The busty blonde married Motley Crue rocker Tommy Lee in 1995 and the couple received lots of attention for their rock and roll romance, which included two children, a sex tape and multiple break-ups and reconciliations. Pam was also the sexy spouse of Kid Rock and Rick Solomon, though both marriages lasted less than a year.
