Pamela Anderson or Kelly Rohrbach - who wore the Baywatch swimsuit better?

It's as famous as Coca Cola or the Nike swoosh. For GQ's summer issue, cover star Kelly Rohrbach told us what it felt like to slow-mo run a while in CJ's iconic red suit, and we look back to when original Baywatch star Pamela Anderson told us about using the suit in her own sex life.

Kelly Rohrbach tells GQ what it was like to wear the new Baywatch red swimsuit:

"My suit was that neoprene scuba gear material so it really rides up. They [the film crew] would use glue and tape it to my bum so it wouldn't make a wedgie wrinkle. Every day the paparazzi would shoot the costume designers doing the glue and there would be be a picture of somebody with a brush, putting Elmer's glue on my bum. I don't feel any shyness. In the summer I'm always walking around in a bathing suit. I'm very 'one love'. I think that's the Californian girl in me."

Pamela Anderson tells GQ how wearing that red swimsuit changed her life:

"I have two original Baywatch swimsuits. Or rather only one since I found my stalker in one two years ago. I walked into the bathroom and she was standing there in my red suit with blood running out of her slit wrists. Apparently she had been following me for, like, months and had been watching me sleep. And yes, I usually do dress up for boyfriends. It was only a few months ago, in fact, that I last put [the bathing suit] on. One of my boyfriends wanted rescuing from the bed. So I jumped in the shower, got all wet, and frisky and then did the slow-mo run all the the way from the shower to the double bed. I think he was pretty satisfied with the performance."

So who do you think wore it better?

We asked you to casts your votes for either Pamela Anderson or Kelly Rohrbach on both Twitter and Facebook (retweeting, liking or sharing to cast your vote) - and it seems you couldn't decide.

On Facebook, Kelly Rohrbach won with 85 per cent to Pamela Anderson's 15 per cent.
