PAMELA ANDERSON SHOCKS HOLLYWOOD BASH

Pamela Anderson

Former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson shocked guests at the Hollywood Style Awards over the weekend, when she turned up with 9-year-old girl Adelaide Gault, who trailed behind the actress, making sure her flowing Vivienne Westwood gown didn't drag on the floor. Gault, the daughter of a make-up artist who was said to be working at the event, followed Pamela around and even sat on the floor as Anderson took her seat near the catwalk. According to gossip reports, the audience physically gasped when Anderson took to the stage, turned to Gault and patted her leg, shouting "daughter," as if she was calling for a pet dog. A source tells New York gossip column Page Six, "She didn't even have her own seat and had to sit at Pamela's feet, where people nearly stepped on her to get to the stage. The girl looked uncomfortable and kept tugging on her dress to get her attention, but Pamela waved her away." Another guest adds, "Pamela was telling people it was her daughter. And, after she presented David LaChapelle with an award onstage, she shouted "daughter" in front of the whole auditorium, and slapped her leg like she was calling a puppy. The girl rushed up to grab her train." A spokesperson for America's Child Labor Coalition has now called for investigation into how the 9-year-old came to be "working" as part of Anderson's entourage. The rep says, "I would want to speak to the child to ask her if it is something she willingly did. Nine is very young, and an awards ceremony is a long time for a child to be out holding a dress."
