Pamela Anderson Says She Struggled With Depression ‘For A Couple Of Decades’

Actor Pamela Anderson is getting candid about struggling with depression in the past.

While attending the Zurich Film Festival to accept the Golden Eye Award for her upcoming film, “The Last Showgirl,” over the weekend, the ’90s pop culture icon spoke to Variety about possibly being depressed “for a couple of decades.”
