Their group performs important educational and legislative work for animal rights, and we're honored to support them."

"Blonde and Blonder" is a new comedy starring Pamela Anderson and Denise Richards as two good-intentioned but intellectually-challenged ladies in an adventure of mistaken identities.

CEO Dean Hamilton Bornstein. Pamela Anderson has been a supporter and spokesperson for PETA for over ten years.

Hilarious "Blonde and Blonder" finds the perfect comedic color

(Premiere Reviews, Los Angeles, CA, Jan. 2, 2008) There's something special about the new comedy "Blonde and Blonder" that makes you want to smile through the whole film. It's not the surprisingly solid comedic performances from Pamela Anderson and Denise Richards, or the impressive assortment of various mobster, detectives and supporting characters. It's the tone, which director Dean Hamilton has skillfully balanced between innocent humor and sophomoric absurdity. True the film's press materials, "Blonde and Blonder" finds its strength from combining the appealing characters of "Legally Blonde" with the downright goofiness of "Dumb and Dumber." The final product is a thoroughly pleasing comedy that will appeal to a broad variety of audiences.

Anderson and Richards play two clueless blondes who witness a mob hit and are mistakenly identified as the killers. This sets into motion a complex series of events with compounding mistakes made by the blondes driving the action and comedy. Kevin and John Farley are especially hilarious as two, bumbling mob henchmen, bringing to life the memory of their famous late brother, Chris Farley. Emmanuelle Vaugier and Meghan Ory are sassy, sexy and fun as the real mob killers, now out for revenge against the blondes for stealing their assignments and fame. Adding yet another layer to the plot, the police are on a manhunt for all of them, which sets the stage for a wacky but logical finale.

Technical credits are solid, with crisp cinematography by C. Kim Miles, and great comic timing from editor Stan Cole whose many feature credits include "A Christmas Story," "Baby Geniuses" and the thematically similar "Porky's." Overall, Premiere Reviews gives the film nine stars (out of ten) with a recommendation for all audiences.

"Blonde and Blonder" will be released to theaters on January 18, 2008 for only two weeks as part of a special promotion and fundraiser for the Pamela Anderson supported charity, PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals).
