Pamela Anderson Tearfully Says 'Goodbye' to Playboy Founder Hugh Hefner

The 50-year-old actress and model, who posed for the cover of Playboy magazine 14 times -- including the final issue that portrays fully nude women in 2016 -- posted a black and white video of herself wiping away her makeup smudging tears and whispering, "Goodbye Hef."

The video also included a lengthy tribute to who she refers to as the "most important person in my life."

"I have so many thoughts, I have no brain right now to edit," she wrote. "I am me because of you. You taught me everything important about freedom and respect. Outside of my family. You were the most important person in my life. You gave me my life... People tell me all the time That I was your favorite... I'm in such deep shock."

Anderson explained the last time she saw Hefner, he has so "old" that he was using a walker since his back wasn't in good shape. She then reflected upon that moment when he later showed her a piece of paper that he kept in his pocket with her name and a heart around it because she used to "embody the spirit [he] fantasized about."

"Everything anyone loves about me is because you understood me. Accepted me and encouraged me to be myself," she wrote. "Love like no one else. Live recklessly With unfiltered abandon. You said the magazine was about a girl like me. That I embody the spirit you fantasized about. I was the one. You said."

The "Baywatch" star also posted a black and white photo of Hefner kissing her on the cheek.

Hefner passed away Wednesday of natural causes. He was 91.
