Restaurant aren’t always on target when naming dishes after celebrities. Some can’t spell Carrie Underwood’s name correctly or remember that she doesn’t eat meat. Something tells us Natalie Portman wouldn’t eat her own lobster salad at a New York eatery. But finally, a family owned restaurant in the midwest has gotten it right with the Vegetarian Pamela Anderson sandwich.

Tortas Guicho Dominguez y el Cubanito in Indianapolis, Indiana (that’s quite a mouthful to blurt out where to eat when you’re hungry) has a sandwich on the menu fit for the sex symbol actress to consume, containing green bell peppers, mozzarella, and mushrooms.

Comedy Central presented The Roast of David Hasselhoff, where the famous took jabs, made wisecracks and downright humiliated the actor about his life, including some of the more embarrassing moments, like the video that made its way on the Internet of him lying on the floor drunk trying to eat a cheeseburger.

Former Baywatch actress and fellow castmate Pamela Anderson was present and she took the video as the opportunity to state her pro-vegetarian views.

“David, I have to say, when I saw the video of you lying on the floor — drunk, broken down, cheeseburger meat falling from your mouth — I felt so sad. For that cow.”

The video incident caused David to later reveal to the public he was a recovering alcoholic, which Anderson took a shot at as well.

“David took his role on Baywatch very seriously. You know, one time I actually saw him rescue a real person who was drowning. David rescued the man, pulled him ashore, gave him mouth-to-mouth…and, of course, the man immediately died of alcohol poisoning.”

The clip of Anderson’s jokes from the roast can be viewed below.

Pamela Anderson gave 50 dogs displaced from the Gulf Coast oil spill a reason to bark with joy, as she worked with PETA and the SPCA to give the dogs care they needed while drawing attention to the plight of animals that are often forgotten during disasters that affect humans.

“We just wanted to do something practical that I could do hands on and, you know, we’ve all heard what’s happening with the shelters and how they are overrun with animals being surrendered,” she said. “People can’t feed their families, they are losing their jobs or moving in with their families and maybe someone is allergic to pets — who knows what the circumstances are, but the shelters are full of animals that need help.”

Pamela Anderson has called Janet Jackson “greedy” for agreeing to be the cover girl for Blackglama’s ad campaign, “What Becomes A Legend Most?”

Anderson told OUT magazine, “It’s disappointing. She has spoken out against fur before. I don’t know why some people stop listening to their heart. I guess some people get greedy, but it’s sad.”

Jackson is keeping mum about the criticism and instead using every opportunity to insert (more than likely highly scripted) positive words about the company that’s paying her to do so.

Pamela Anderson never shies away from irony.

If it’s not being the vegetarian who opens a strip club that serves steaks, it’s promoting vegetarianism in a restaurant that serves foie gras.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Anderson wrote to Montreal’s Restaurant Globe, the venue where she debuted the pro-vegetarian ad banned by city officials because it was deemed sexist, asking it to remove the delicacy created by forcing ducks to eat so much food their livers swell several times the normal size, causing pain and death.

“Surely the irony was not lost on you that I was unveiling a pro-vegetarian ad at your restaurant,” Anderson wrote.

Pamela Anderson "All Animals Have The Same Parts" PETA

“In a city that is known for its exotic dancing and for being progressive and edgy, how sad that a woman would be banned from using her own body in a political protest over the suffering of cows and chickens.”

–Pamela Anderson, in a statement responding to Montreal’s decision to deny her permission to unveil her new ad, “All Animals Have the Same Parts,” at a city sanctioned location, claiming it was sexist. Anderson unveiled it instead at a news conference for the Just For Laughs festival.

Pamela Anderson "All Animals Have The Same Parts" PETA

Pamela Anderson has been banned in her own home country!

When the vegetarian actress requested permission to debut her new PETA ad in the city of Montreal, officials gave her the thumbs down because of the partial nudity. The ad, shown here, reads, All Animals Have The Same Parts. Have a Heart. Go Vegetarian. Anderson’s “parts” are divided into breast, rump, ribs, legs, etc. showing where similar cuts of animal meat comes from.

Anderson will still be able to debut the ad Thursday evening, but it will be without the city’s blessing, as officials say it has hints of sexism in it.

“On one hand we’re working for an organization where we’re getting reminded on a daily basis that we should work in a sexism-free environment and that equality between men and women and the image of women is very important,” said Montreal film commissioner Daniel Bissonnette, who denied the permit.
