The Baywatch series had a great cultural impact in the 90s, especially because of its cult of sculpted bodies like actresses Pamela Anderson or Erika Eleniak, who unfortunately did not have much luck in the entertainment industry after the role of Shauna McClain.
And that is that, despite becoming a sexual icon of the time, it was difficult for the young woman to get serious roles that eluded her image of a “lusty blonde”, so she distanced herself from acting.
She later focused on raising her daughter, explored her teaching role as an acting teacher and now has a podcast, although her name has returned to trending due to criticism of her current appearance, as La Voz pointed out.

Recently, paparazzi photographed Erika Eleniak walking her pets in Thousand Oaks, California, to emphasize that her appearance was a far cry from her days as a Baywatch star.
In the pictures, the 53-year-old woman swapped her red swimsuit for a maroon T-shirt that revealed large tattoos on her arms, she also wore patterned pants, sandals and her face was bare of make-up.
Social networks clashed, writes Women’s Health, and while some harshly criticized her for her appearance, others defended her tooth and nail, for which she later thanked with a video she shared on her Instagram.

The actress openly broke down in tears in her post as she revealed that she expected bad comments after being chased by two vans.
She emphasized how scared she was at that moment and how much she hates being objectified, just like in her Baywatch days.
She also announced that for a while she avoided talking about her body in public, although now she feels “forced” so she might upload something about it in the coming days.
