Erika Eleniak, renowned for her role as Shauni McClain on Baywatch, was once celebrated for her stunning looks. Since the show wrapped, she has undergone significant style transformations. Although she has made few public appearances, she recently made a striking return at the premiere of After Baywatch: Moment In The Sun.
The 54-year-old actress attended the premiere of After Baywatch: Moment In The Sun at The Bungalow in Santa Monica, California. She looked elegant in a simple black blouse paired with chic black trousers. She completed the look with ballet flats and wore her blonde hair straight.
Over the years, Eleniak has experimented with various hairstyles that were far from her iconic long blonde curls on the popular show. In recent years, she opted to cut her blonde hair very short and even dyed it bright purple at one point.
Erika’s edgy looks, particularly her bold tattoos, have divided opinions online, with some people deeming her “unrecognizable.”
Many felt that her tattoos added charm to her appearance and made her even more attractive. As one person commented, “She looks a lot better now than in her Baywatch days.” Another person gushed, “Love your artwork, Erika!”
Others were more uncertain about the drastic transformation. One person remarked, “Still very attractive, but I don’t like the tattoos.” Meanwhile, others simply wondered, “What happened to you?“’ “Such a beautiful lady with disgusting looking tattoos. What a shame.”
54-year-old Erika shared that she is currently trying to rethink and embrace aging. “[I’m] going through a lot of healing right now and the one thing that we know about life that is constant is that nothing is constant,” she said.
“So I’ve been doing some deep digging, right, about aging all of this. Struggling to hold onto my youth, to let it go, where to be in that.”
Another Baywatch star, Pamela Anderson, has also drastically changed her style. Now, the icon attends all events without a trace of makeup.
