Pamela Anderson is much more comfortable in her skin these days.
Speaking to Refinery 29 about her recent NSFW film campaign for lingerie brand Coco de Mer, the 49-year-old Canadian sex symbol said she's feeling confident and beautiful.
"I love being a woman, soft, feminine, open. I do the best I can. I like to change the way I look. I feel much more in control these days," she told the site.
Pamela Anderson seen arriving at Annabel's for Coco de Mer Pre-Valentine's Day fashion show on February 7.
Known for her role in "Baywatch" and of course her iconic bathing suits, Anderson said she has a different stance on getting undressed for the camera these days.
"I rely less on what others tell me. No matter what we look like, sexy comes from within."
She also got super real when it comes to imperfections.
"Nobody's perfect — imperfections are sexy. Our vulnerabilities are what makes us attractive and unique. I feel the same fears, pangs, questions, I just may have learned to enjoy those feelings. If you don’t try, you never know,' she said.

In the sexy ad (and yes, we mean sexy), the former Playboy model strips down into seductive lingerie, and even gets friendly with a sex toy.
Work it, Pam.
"This film was meant to be cheeky. It’s very Coco de Mer — and me"
And it's no surprise the blond bombshell is a fan of lingerie during the holidays. In 2012, Anderson appeared in Love magazine's video advent calendar, posing in black lingerie and playing with giant balloons.
