US television star Pamela Anderson has launched an unlikely new career as a novelist, penning the adventures of an up-and-coming young Hollywood actress.
Anderson's turning her hand to literature after soaring to fame as the bathing suit-clad star of the Baywatch television show.
The 37-year-old Canadian-born actress is criss-crossing the United States signing copies of her first book Star, written with the help of ghostwriter Eric Shaw Quinn.
Her maiden novel tells the fictional story of a late-blooming young girl named Star Wood Leigh who rises to fame and fortune in Hollywood on a television show called Lifeguards Inc.
