Pam Ann, the saucy stewardess alter-ego of Australian funny girl Caroline Reid. has toured with Cher, crewed a private jet for Elton John, had her own TV show Down Under and appeared in promotions for Air France, Lufthansa and British Airways, among others.
At a performance at New York’s Triad Theater last week, Pam made a prank call to the Turkish restaurant downstairs, talked Grindr with a pair of Aussie boys, flirted with some Mexican cabin crew and delivered a bottle of bubbly to choreographer Nick Kenkel and his boyfriend.
