I’m really starting to think that Pamela Anderson’s only claim to fame at this point is showing up to event horribly and/or scantily dressed. Just a few weeks ago, Pamela attended a “launch” for her “fashion line” Muse, and walked the runway in a dirty thong and a scarf. It was all pretty gross. Pamela chose to wear a little more for last night’s Hollywood Style Awards in Los Angeles. She wore… what is this sh-t? It looks like an 80s bridesmaid dress that’s been run over by a truck. With Pamela still in the dress. Whenever I look at Pamela the thought “Rode hard and put away wet” always pops up. Which is fine, whatever, just another gross moment in Pamela’s history of gross moments. But now she’s gotten a child involved! Yes, Pamela had the daughter of her makeup artist act as her official train-carrier. This little girl looks terrified. I would be too.

Most parents might worry about their daughter following in the footsteps of Pamela Anderson, but not the Barb Wire star’s make-up artist. Sharon Gault allowed her young girl Adelaide to carry the train of the brazen 42-year-old’s outrageous dress at the Hollywood Style Awards in Los Angeles. It certainly helped her make the grandest entrance of the night, which kicked off LA Fashion Week.

Standing shyly beside Pamela and photographer David LaChapelle – who counts her mother as his muse – Adelaide looked slightly uncomfortable as she was photographed beside the famous blonde bombshell.

While most of the stars in attendance at the glitzy bash last night went for more traditional looks, the former Baywatch star managed to steal the limelight with her revealing dress, which appeared to be falling to pieces.

The baby pink gown appeared to be a recycled couture gown, which was worn the wrong way round and was held together with safety pins and knots.

The risque gown – which stopped short at her bottom, also gave Pamela an opportunity to show off her fabulous long legs.

The star-studded event, on the eve of the start of LA Fashion Week, was a friends’ night out for Pamela, who attended without her new boyfriend Jamie Padgett.

Joining Pamela, Adelaide and David at the bash was the youngster’s mother Sharon and magazine publisher Benedikt Taschen.

Sharon, otherwise known as Mama Make-Up, is a popular hair stylist and make-up artist to the stars and has worked with Christina Aguilera, Lady GaGa, Elton John, Kelis and Justin Timberlake.

The Hollywood Style Awards is an annual ceremony organised by Hollywood Life magazine to celebrate style-setting celebrities.

Among the guests at this year’s bash were reality TV stars Kim Kardashian and Lauren Conrad, Sophia Bush, Hayden Pannettiere, Jessica Stroup and Kelly Osbourne.

Would you like to know how significant the Hollywood Style Awards are? They’re so important I had to go through twenty different sources to find out the name of just one of the “winners” of one of the “Style Awards”. That winner? Brody Jenner. Oh, yes. It’s that kind of “award” show.
