this morning the latest in a line of spoken-word videos was
released by Morrissey to promote his latest single EARTH IS
THE LONELIEST PLANET.
and what a moment it was when I realised it was PAMELA
ANDERSON in the video with him!!!!
I have long admired Pamela and have often wondered if they
knew each other. I remember reading that Morrissey had gone
to a thanksgiving dinner Pamela had had, where the guest of
honour was the turkey!! ... but had no idea if it was actually
true.
hence my joy when I realised it was her in the video with him.
and this pairing of Morrissey and Pamela is just perfect ... but
not just for the reason you might think.
you see Pamela is a strange mix in this modern day and age.
sure there have been hyper-sexual stars before and after her
... but none quite like her.
you see, she exudes qualities of the golden age of Hollywood,
when women were sexual, and strong (but not arrogant, mean
and big-headed because they knew they HAD IT) ... polite and
courteous.
if she had been born in the UK, in the north, probably 30 years
earlier, I have no doubt she would have graced the cover of a
'Smiths record.
that's why it is so perfect that Morrissey likes her ...
and of course the other reason why it's perfect, is because she
has the same beautiful spirit as Morrissey in using her voice
for the voice-less animals. it makes my heart swell knowing
that these 2 people are in the world MAKING A DIFFERENCE
... and now knowing that they are friends.
