Pamela Anderson is Bringing Green to Dubai

August 6, 2008 in Giving Back by Kristen Seymour | No comments

Pamela Anderson might be best known for her cartoonishly curvaceous body and big blond hair, but she’s also gained a lot of recognition in recent years for her commitment to animals and the environment. No longer content to just raise awareness in this country, Pammy is now set to build a green hotel in Dubai.

After a recent visit to the United Arab Emirates for the Make a Wish Foundation, the bombshell was convinced by the royal family that she needed to become a hotelier there. She’s very excited about the idea of building an eco-friendly hotel there, saying, “It’s built with no fossil fuel at all … in Abu Dhabi — where they have all that oil.”

Pamela’s trip to the UAE took place at the behest of His Highness Sheikha Sheikha Bint Saif Al Nayan, who is using international celebrities to bring attention to the Make a Wish Foundation there, which he hopes will bring in support from the local community. Pamela participated in the fundraiser gala and auctioned off a dinner with herself.
