Pamela Anderson is an It Girl of the moment — and she's proving her impeccable sense of style with something fans certainly didn't expect!

The Golden Globe nominee was one of the attendees at the 2025 Met Gala on May 5, where she brought along son Brandon Thomas Lee as her date for the occasion. Although it was a family night for Pamela, folks couldn't get enough of her entire look that nodded to the theme of "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style."

Wearing a silver beaded gown designed by Tory Burch for the red carpet, she also debuted a bold bob, with her blonde hair hitting at her chin and blunt baby bangs cut straight across her forehead.

As for the inspiration behind the daring new hairstyle, Pamela told Emma Chamberlain for Vogue's red carpet interview that the chop actually was a long time in the making.

"I love it, because I feel like I'm the best version of me right now," she explained in the clip. "[The hair] is new ... I've been kind of slowly cutting my hair over different projects that I've been doing in the last couple months, and I thought I was just gonna go for it with this. I actually really love it. It's so freeing — I've had a pixie cut before, but this is nice."

But that's not all Pamela shared about her incredible Met Gala ensemble. When she shared behind-the-scenes photos getting ready for the event on Instagram, she noted the importance of celebrating just how different the fashion moment was for her.

"Bold ... Brave … Precise. 🤍," she wrote in the caption. "A celebration of courage and craftsmanship. Thank you for the invitation—an honor. Love, P."

Naturally, Pamela's dramatic hair transformation had fans screaming about it in the comments online.

"Absolutely sublime! You look ethereal!" one person wrote. "Love the bob, fringe & bold lippy! The dress is stunning too. Gorgeous," another declared. "WOW this hair and this look are perfection," a different follower exclaimed.

Well, we may just have to copy this look for a future hairstyle!
