Pamela's personality & talent (askmen.com)

Pamela is a fun girl. Then again, any girl who has been on Baywatch seems like loads of fun to us! And she's into fun guys. Tommy Lee and Kid Rock seem like regular riots.

She's also into the "New Age" way of thinking. Coupled with a teenage desire to be a California beach bum, she's living her life pretty much the way she envisioned it. Now if we can only let her know that we share the same vision of life, maybe we could appear with her in an upcoming video project.

Pam may not be the most celebrated of thespians, but she can hold her own in the roles she has undertaken. She has improved as an actress over time (compare her early work on Baywatch with her final season on V.I.P.). And she has recently appeared in a new incarnation as a columnist for Jane magazine. Could an autobiography be next on her agenda?

Pam is whacked

She's being honest here:

"There's never going to be a great misunderstanding of me. I think I'm a little whacked."

Beyond the Valley of the Doll - Details May 1996

Beyond the Valley of the Doll
Women are from Venus, Pamela Lee is from Mars.
David A. Keeps surveys the landscape of her mind.


Brandon Thomas Lee may be the luckiest little guy in the world. His father, the lucky guy who got to put him where he is today, has already ordered him a baby drum kit just like the one dad plays in Motley Crue. And his mother plans to breast-feed her son when he's born.

"It's so bizarre going through a pregnancy," Pamela Lee tells me. "Yesterday I was having a bath and milk started squirting out of my breasts. I called Tommy and I go, "They Work!" and he just lost it. And we had the ultrasound the other day and the doctor said, 'There's the scrotum and there's the penis.' I was very impressed. For a seven month old. "

It's the happiest time in her twenty-eight years, but it's rough. "When you're pregnant your .sex drive goes way through the roof. And your brain, it does get fried. Just this morning I'm like, did I take my vitamins or didn't I? Seven months' worth of brain cells are gone."

And another thing: "If you laugh really hard when you're pregnant, you pee your pants."

She arrives at Shutters in Santa Monica with Jon Roberts, her assistant and "food cop." First he approves her lunch: angel-hair pasta with tomato and basil and a salad with goat cheese. (She had calamari the other day big mistake. ) Then he puts four beepers on the table. Tommy might call.

The Lees were married on February 19, 1995, after a four day courtship in Cancun. The bride wore white. A bikini. When they returned to L.A. they got married again, this time in silver spacesuits. Pamela has hired a midwife and wants to have the baby in their new house, which is still under construction. "When I told Tommy I wanted to hang a swing above the piano, he's like, 'Let me find some studs in the roof so you don't fall on your ass.' He's really the practical one in the relationship." And she's the romantic. Last October, for his thirty-third birth day, Pamela had a dream and turned it into a theme party. She had everyone picked up in a tour bus and driven home in ambulances. There was a Ferris wheel and a drum kit made of junk for Tommy to play. Everyone was in drag and there were little people saying "Welcome to Tommy land" as the guests walked down a red carpet in slow motion. Tommy wore a flowing robe and a crown made of crystals. "He was the king of Tommy land, and I was the ringmaster with short shorts, fishnets, and a whip." Clearly, they're still crazy in love.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


How would you prepare to do a love scene?
(one of her four beepers goes off) That must be Tommy. You started mentioning love scenes and the panic button went off. (after a brief lovey-dovey conversation) You know what? I just don't think I could bring myself to do it. I'm sorry, but if someone is pinching my nipple, it's my body that I'm sharing in an intimate way. I couldn't make that separation. A normal married couple wouldn't let the wife go across the street and have sex and say, "Oh, I was just visiting."

Isn't that a kick in the ass? That's what everyone wants to see you do.
Well, I think the sexiest moments aren't necessarily two people *******. Excuse my language. (laughs) Like the one in Fatal Attraction when she's falling in the sink and he's tripping over his pants. I think what makes people sexy is their sense of humor, their realness, their kind of stumbling human qualities.

What's the dumbest pickup line you've ever heard?
(long pause) I can't think of any. Maybe they all work with me.

Do you like being one of the most desired women in the world?
Now how do you answer that without sounding like a total jerk? And ya know, there's a little scariness that comes along with it, like when I get a letter addressed "Pamela Anderson, Movie Star" And it's in my mailbox, from Germany.

Do you ever wish that you were ugly but a great actress?
No. (laughs). . . I still go to work every day thinking I'm not cut out for this. I have a phobia: I can't watch myself on TV. I start shaking, I start sweating and I lose it.

Being beautiful, do you have to try harder as an actress?
I don't. (laughs) I mean, I do as well as I can, but I'm not doing Masterpiece Theatre. I'm just having fun with it. I think that's what TV should be about anyway. I look at I Dream of Jeannie and The Brady Bunch it was terrible television, but it was like easy watching. It wasn't like a lot of really in depth actors reaching into their childhood and remembering when their dog was run over

What's your first childhood memory?
Doing something bad. I was a three-o'clock-in-the-morning-nightmare child. My mother keeps telling me these terrible stories now that I'm having a baby. Like when she was gonna bake a pie and I smeared the cat in all her spices and butter and stuck him in the oven and went back to bed. Psycho. Or I would hide my brother in a barrel and then alert the whole town that he was missing.

When were you aware that you were becoming a woman?
Well, I got one nipple first. See, you wouldn't know this but they pop out, and they're like little hard things. I would run around screaming, just trying to pound it back into my chest. Then a month later I sat my mother down, crying, and I said, "Okay, I have to tell you that I'm dying of cancer." And then another month later the other one came out.

And now look at you. A perfect match. What did your mom say when Playboy called you?
My mom is super cool. She goes, "I would do it, if they asked me." She even went to the mansion a couple times and Hef told her she had nice legs.

Raquel Welch said being a sex symbol isn't as easy as it looks because you don't get a lot of sympathy.
But that's also in your favor because they're pleasantly surprised that you can hold a conversation. . . . I always felt like, the more open and honest and candid I can be, even in interviews, the better. If people don't accept you for yourself, then they should probably just turn the channel.

Does it bother you that you're criticized for having plastic surgery?
I've had one surgery, a breast augmentation, and a million other people have, but it's horrifying that I actually did. People will always find something. I don't understand why it's such a big deal, this is what I want to look like.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This is what she looks like: Cute. Tan with freckles, big eyes, and blond hair everywhere. (If she were a lapdog, she'd be a Pekingese.) She is the kind of woman that men like to put on a pedestal, mainly so they can look up her skirt, but she is more the girl-next-door than the inflatable sex goddess. She's put on some makeup ("I just kind of futz around"), but not the full war paint you might expect. The effect is disarmingly real. As we talk, Pamela tosses her hair around and laughs hysterically. She is not the poised, sincere young actress whose every utterance whispers "Respect me.'' Her attitude is more "Oh, the hell with it, let's party. " She's just one of the guys. She raves about Alanis Morissette and Nine Inch Nails ("They want to **** me like an animal," she giggles). She speaks with all the bouncy cool-rad-ya know-awesome enthusiasm of a beach babe, which only emphasizes her quirky, quick witted one-liners.

The prevailing theory; that Pamela Lee is not the brightest bulb in the chandelier, misses the mark. She is smarter than she needs to be. Smart enough to steal the show (in the tradition of Jayne Mansfield and Brigitte Bardot) at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival by showing up to promote her role as a butt-kickin' uber-babe in Barb Wire, even though she hadn't shot a single scene. And she reads a lot. Robert Bly, Kahlil Gibran, The Power of Myth by Joseph Campbell, fairy tales, and nursery rhymes, even though they can be scary: "Bye-bye black sheep," she recites, "going to stuff you in a bag and suffocate you." Sometimes things do get lost in the translation, though. Vanity Fair called her "a timeless beauty who has done everything in her power to become a transient one." "Yeah, well, 'transient' means someone who lives in hotels," she tells me, "and I'm a home body." But hers is a particular kind of intelligence, one that accepts without shame what she has become and uses what she knows to mess with people's minds. Once, trying to kill time on her exercise bike, she memorized some Hamlet. That came in handy when some snide announcer on a stupid TV special said, "Oh, Pamela's going to recite something from Shakespeare." She performed the "To be or not to be" soliloquy, "and their mouths just dropped."

Pamela Denise Anderson was born on July 1, 1967, To teenage parents, Barry and Carol, in Ladysmith on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Prophetically, she had her picture on the front page of the local paper when she was born because she was the area's first baby of the Canadian centennial. The family struggled. Mom was a waitress. (In her teens, Pamela worked with her at Smitty's pancake house.) Dad owned Barry's Furnace Service. "He had the name in big letters on the side of this big hillbilly wagon. When he drove me to school I made sure he dropped me off two blocks before I got there. " She was kind of hyper, digging holes to China in the yard with her mother's spoons. "I fainted a lot," she recalls. "I still do. I just don't have that shutoff valve." She didn't have Barbie's, but she had a stuffed alligator she loved. This is her toy story: "I don't know why, but I wrote TIGGER on his ear. And I blackened in all his teeth with Magic Marker. There was a dryer vent in the garage with a hole in it and I couldn't find Tigger for the longest time and I looked up there and my dad had (laughs hysterically) just stuffed him there. He said, 'It's too late now!' (still laughing) And I've never been the same since then." In kindergarten she had a crush on Donald, the boy with the biggest ears in the class. When she was ten or eleven, she succumbed to peer pressure and tried to shoplift Bonne Bell bubble-gum lip gloss; they collared her at the door. Though she never had teen idol posters on her walls, she had this thing for Staying Alive. "It was like my meter If a boy came over and didn't like this one particular scene, I used to go, 'Phhht there's the door.' " She was a straight-A student and went to the prom. "It's not really like a prom in Canada. Everyone just went out all night to the beach and got wasted." Pamela loved her father's father. Grandpa used to give her books and tell her "You are your empire, your body is your temple." He taught her to meditate. "He used to say when things were crazy at home, go to the beach and take a rock and really become the rock. I mean, it sounds kind of kooky, but it really helped me through a lot when I was little." He died when she was eleven. Pamela didn't go to the funeral; she's never been to one since. But he left her a legacy. He encouraged his granddaughter to keep a record of and, more importantly, to live her dreams. I encourage her to tell me a dream. This is what she says: I dreamt that Tommy was taking me to Ronald Reagan's birthday party. We're all dressed up and pack all the baby things into the truck. When we get there we get everything out of the truck and there's Ronald Reagan and then there's four rows of kids, like four by four. There's a poodle in every row spaced between the kids on the diagonal. And they were all line-dancing. I'm sit ting there watching the entertainment, and Tommy goes, "I'll be right hack, I'm gonna go find a girl that looks like you." So he leaves. I zoom in on Ronald Reagan and realize it's an impersonator. Oh my God, he's left me in a mental institution with all my baby stuff. So I go running outside and I see four rows of women naked from the waist down praying to Buddha. I go, "Excuse me, is there any way I can get a cab here?" And they go, "Well, the men's cabs go to the right and the women's to the left and there's no cabs going to the left, so I think women can 't get a cab today. " So I go inside and there's Anna Nicole Smith on an IV. I go, "Do you need me to break you out of here? " And she goes, "I can't. I 'm a ward of the state. " So I'm like, Oh my God, I really am in a mental institution. I go outside again and I see this really tiny Lego car coming up to me. I'm trying to open the door really carefully 'cause I don't want to break it, and I'm trying to get in and my stomach's way too big. I look inside and there's Tommy in the front, and he goes, "I'm gonna break you out of here! Ya know what, I didn't really wanna find a girl that looks like you. I just wanted to go party with my friends for a while come on, get in. " And then I woke up. "Maybe," Pamela tells me, "if you just print my dream, people will know everything they need to know about me. I don't want to try to analyze it. If I see someone try to analyze this dream in this article, I'm gonna be frightened." I don't normally like to frighten people, but I do fax her dream off to be interpreted.

Unaware of Pamela's identity, Dr. Tore A. Nielsen, director of the Dream & Nightmare Laboratory, Hospital du Sacre-Coeur, Montreal, writes:

Beneath this dreamer's creative tapestry of surrealistic episodes is a reasonably coherent story about the inner concerns and fears (dependency, insecurity, abandonment, confinement) of a woman expecting a child. "naked from the waist down praying" could refer to end less gynecological exams or perhaps the birth miracle itself. During pregnancy the body changes; the way she worries about her "way-too-big stomach breaking the little Lego car" is a particularly enchanting mix of structural uncertainty and kid symbolism. If much of this seems obvious, the dream is never the less riddled with enigmatic symbols, many of which suggest a very creative and humorous spirit. Why Ronald Reagan's birth day, for God's sake? And that weird matrix of dancing kiddies and poodles what could that be about? Does she own a dog? A Jungian specialist might find it to be a serene, symmetric, and well-balanced symbol of the self, a sign of individuation through procreation. But we would need to hear from the dreamer herself.

Later, I confess to Pamela that I had her dream analyzed. She gasps, "What did the doctor say? 'Lock her up'?" So I read her the good doctor's notes. "I have three dogs," she says afterward, "two Rottweilers and a golden retriever. Maybe I want a poodle. And my mother dreamed of dancing cows once, so maybe it's a hereditary dancing-animal thing."


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Are all men dogs?
No. I think a lot of women are. Women grow up with the theory that keeping secrets is good. I mean, your mother from the very beginning doesn't tell your father everything, and she makes sure you don't tell your father everything. I'm not the game-playing type. I think a man should be your best friend.

What makes a man sexy?
Imagination. Someone who's uninhibited and very secure with their body. And walks around naked all the time.

Was sex ever scary to you?
Mmm, no. If you play burglar-victim, it can be. (laughs)

Is there anything that would turn you off?
Yeah, abusive situations.

What will you tell your son about sex?
Well, I believe sex education should be taught in school, and I think that you should be approachable parents. If kids see their parents are very loving people and kissing and hugging and they know that sex is hopefully in combination with love, then they'll get the right idea. If you set a good example . . . you know, like swinging from trapezes.

What if he came to you when he was sixteen and said he was gay?
Then that's what he would be and he could wear my clothes if he wanted. We'd probably already have a couple shoes in the closet in his size.

Does size count? Hey, it's the sex issue. Men need to know.
Unfortunately, yes it does!. There's a lot of ways to make people feel good, but personally I think it does enhance things.

What do women want from men?
A great companion. A man that's a man. You don't want to have to be the man and the woman in the relationship. I always say you want a man who can fix the toilet.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


She's the queen of the tabloids, but it's a love-hate thing.

(They love her; she hates them.) They speculate over every pound she gains or loses. (Today, at seven months, she's seventeen pounds heavier than her Baywatch weight.) They spy on her whenever she's in the hospital. They dig up so-called old friends and lovers to dish the dirt. They tell stories about drugs, jealousy, fights.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Do you have to harden your heart when you become famous?
I hope not. I don't care how many times I get trampled on or how many times I get beat up, because I don't want to be one of those guarded, living-in-my-shell kind of people. I'd rather keep on getting hurt.

Which untrue tabloid story about you do you wish was actually true?
Oh, there's so many untrue stories. Let's see . . . That I really was the heroin poster girl. No, just kidding. That was a terrible story. There was a lawsuit over it that I'm not allowed to talk about. People think we have this really crazy rock 'n' roll lifestyle. But we wake up at seven and go to the gym every morning together. Tommy's been working out like crazy. He's gained twenty-eight pounds. I told him, "You're ruining your image. I think everybody should just believe you're a heroin addict, it's probably better for your career."

Did you ever experiment with drugs?
I was not a big drug person. I couldn't smoke pot because it made me so paranoid that I couldn't tell if I had to pee or I was really cold, so I just didn't enjoy it. I don't think there's other substances that really work with my personality.

What about Cristal champagne? That's what all the papers say.
Yeah, well, I guess that's the only drink anyone's ever seen in my hand. One night at Bo Kaos I had a few glasses of Cristal and I did a back flip in the booth. I landed on Tommy, and his drink went down my patent-leather pants. So I stand up and I've got my hand in my crotch, trying to get the ice cubes out. And that's when Tommy said, "I think I'm going to take my wife home now." Things like that usually happen if I drink champagne.

What about those pictures of you two having sex that were published in Screw?
I was devastated at first. Someone stole our pictures, I wanted to frame them, you know. (laughs) I just refuse to dwell on it in a negative way. Ooh, I'm having sex with my husband, like that's a real terrible thing. I think lots of people take those kinds of pictures. At least we took a Polaroid, we didn't take it to Supersnaps.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


There's this twisted dark side of me that's really fun to explore with this character because she just goes off at any moment." That's Pamela's sound bite for Barb Wire. Today, she goes a little further: "But I feel that way too. If anyone were to hurt my family, ya know, I'm not gonna think 'lawsuit first,' I'll probably think 'kill first.' "
Pamela Lee has not joined the chorus of tearful celebrities who heal their hurts in public. She tried it and both she and her parents got hurt. Last year a British tabloid quoted her as saying, "Recently I talked about the abuse I suffered as a child. I did this in the hope that other people going through the situation were not alone.... I didn't , do it to hurt anyone. Unfortunately the reports were completely sensationalized." Perhaps if she did get in touch with those feelings, people might begin to think she was a more serious actress and she might even become one but the process would almost certainly make her a less enchanting and delightful person. The fact is, she's survived it and can laugh about those things now. Maybe it's better that way.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your father reportedly had a drinking problem which is now under control. What was it like growing up with that?
Well, it wasn't fun at times, but if anybody was passed out on the porch when I came home, me and my friends used to flick rocks at their head and try to hit them, we kinda made a game out of it. No, I'm kidding. It was tough.

I read a story that said you hit your dad.
I punched my dad once. I punched him in the chin and I hit him pretty hard and then I ran for my life. It was just one of those situations where there was drinking involved and I don't really want to get into all that. My father's drinking problem is old news. But yeah, I was pretty ballsy as a kid. When my mom was crying in the bathroom and my brother was downstairs scared behind a locked door, I was the one who was yelling at my dad and then running for the door.

What did it teach you about life? I look back and I really respect my mom. My parents had me when they were seventeen and nineteen. And I think back to when I was that age and think, God! Anybody can have a child. Whether you're financially secure or emotionally secure or not. Money was always such a huge issue growing up. It was always like, If we only had this, then we'd have no problems, when really that isn't the case. Ya know what, though? It was tough growing up, but we all got through it and everyone is fine now and everyone gets along well. Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

That's mighty Nietzschean. Are you also an existentialist?
Like not an astrological, crystals, and incense kind of thing?

No, that's New Agey. Existential is like, If a tree falls in the forest...
That's really weird you said that, because my grandfather was a logger, and they tell me he talked to the trees, and the trees talked to him, and he used to always say that if a tree falls in the forest, it doesn't make a sound. I kind of do have that belief then, because I do have that faith that things are going to happen the way they're going to happen, and they're out of your control.

When was the last time you told a lie?
(laughs) Probably sometime in this conversation.

What do you think people most misunderstand about you?
There are things that they probably would never understand unless they got to know me, so that's just the way it's going to be. There's never going to be a great understanding of me. I think I'm a little whacked. It's just as well.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Outside, the sun is dipping into the Pacific. Everything is glowing and golden. It's a Baywatch moment. Time for some Baywatch questions.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Which one of David Hasselhoff's records do you treasure the most?
I haven't heard any of his CD's.

I heard he gave people tapes of his album as Christmas presents.
I don't think I was there for that one, but I did get a calendar one year. A David Hasselhoff calendar I have never met anyone who loves the business so much. He loves signing autographs, he loves the paparazzi, he loves people screaming his name, he loves wearing a big purple suit with a cape in London, walking in the Hard Rock Cafe. He's just full-blown David Hasselhoff to the max.

Swimming in that ocean out there is pretty gross, isn't it?
Sometimes. We do location swimming. But whenever you come out of the water they give you eye drops, ear drops, and you gargle with Listerine and hose yourself off, so nothing really sticks to you.

How many miles of that beach out there do you think you've run?
In slow motion or at normal speed?

No News From The Front - EMPIRE May 1996

She's blonde, she's busty, and she's very probably the most famous woman on the planet thanks, in no small part, to the fact that she's very good at taking her clothes off. But can she act? who the hell knows. "It's beautiful outside," Pamela Anderson tells Philip Thomas, "so we're eager to get outside and go play with our dogs..."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

During my brief, crazy, star-crossed relationship with Pamela Anderson, she stood me up twice, and left me three times - the last time for good, just like she promised. I should have known it was doomed. She just couldn't commit to anything - in the space of one 20-minute phone call, for instance, she said, "I don't know" 18 times. But how we laughed at all that life threw at us! Hello, She Lied! (Of which more later). Melisa Parks! (Of whom more later). Really Greasy Little Guys! (Ditto). We had such fun, me and Pamela, Pamela and I, such wild and maddening fun, but when the end came, it was positively harrowing in its finality. It was so bloody ... cruel.

"I'm walking upstairs now," she threatened, breathing down the telephone line. "I'm putting on my shoes."
"But ..." I said.
"It's getting late," she said. "I gotta go."
"Is this it?" I blurted.
"I'm sorry," she said, and I like to think there was a hint of tenderness, perhaps even triste, in among the Californian nasality and the off-hand banality. "But I really gotta go ..."
Click Burr ...

She was meant to ring me on Wednesday night (although she insists she never said she would, so I suppose it doesn't count), and she didn't. She was meant to ring me on Thursday night, and she didn't. She wasn't meant to ring me on Friday night, and she didn't, so that was good. And she was meant to ring me on Saturday night, and she did - nut half-an-hour early. I had two pizzas in the oven, and when the phone went I was attending to a bowel movement / Armitage Shanks interface that was developing quite nicely, I felt, and had every chance of coming to a satisfactory conclusion.

"It's your phone call," shouted a voice from the kitchen. "It's Pamela Anderson on the phone."

It's Pamela Anderson on the phone from some beach house on the Californian coast, shaggy-haired and breathless, no doubt, from some mind-boggling gymnastic sex with that Tommy Lee drummer bloke from the �ptly nam�d M�tley Cr�e, and keen to get off to some stupidly chic breakfast date before going skiing in the morning and surfing after brunch, or whatever it is you're suppose to be able to do in California. And I have two rapidly crisping pizzas in the oven here in drizzly North London, and I am literally having a crap time. Not a great start to a balanced and meaningful relationship, but, undeterred, I restore my modesty, bound out of the bathroom, pick up the phone and hear nothing bu the dialling tone. Pamela is out of my life.

And not for the first time...

Pamela Anderson has got a movie coming out in six weeks' time and a baby coming out three weeks after that. It's all happening for the Baywatch Beauty, as usual, but the busy bee has agreed to call me to talk about her latest film, Barb Wire, which neither of us has seen and, in common with most of humanity, probably never will. Actually, that's not fair - we'll get to see it, all in good time, but it does make the conversation a little strained at first, since the whole point is to talk about something neither of us knows anything about. When Pamela rings me back seconds after the first telephone catastrophe, the obvious opening gambit is to ask why on earth she's been standing me up. Where did she get to the other night? What is it with me and her? Does she want this thing to work or not?

"I'm sorry" she says. Her voice sounds like it belongs to a 12-year-old Californian Valley Girl, not a 28-year-old woman from Vancouver, Canada. She finishes almost every sentence with a little giggle, and attempts to fill every microsecond of silence with words of any description. She's really quite charming, endearingly uncomplicated, but I'm not sure I have her undivided attention, since she has a strange habit of agreeing with me, then unexpectedly changing her mind and immediately not agreeing with me. It's almost as if there's a multimillionaire rock star (M�tley Cr�e have sold around 20 million records to hard-livin' teenagers since 1980) waiting impatiently at the door, dog leash in hand. Which, as it turns out, there is.

"I'm sorry I couldn't get to you the other day, it's been crazy around here with these paparazzi photographers hunting us down. When I was supposed to call you, I had the sheriff over at my house."
The sheriff?
"Yeah! Heehee!"
What was he doing at you house?
"Basically escorting people away from my place, because it was getting a little ridiculous and I'm feeling a little uncomfortable, because I'm due to have my baby in nine weeks. If it was a man jumping out of the bushes at me without a camera, I'd probably kick him in the face, but since he's got a camera, I'm not allowed to beat him up. It's very upsetting!"
Why can't you beat him up? In case he takes a picture?
"Yeah!" says Pamela. "Well, no. Because they sue you. It's ridiculous, but anyway, so I had to leave my house that time, and that was just about when I was supposed to call you."
How exciting! So you had to actually leave with the sheriff?
"Yeah!"
Where did he take you?

The bit at the end there - the "No baby! Not Yet!" bit - that was a trifle disconcerting, if I'm being absolutely honest. It was screamed in response to one of the grumpiest sounds I have ever heard. The sound of a devil-child rocker with tattoos and a legendary manhood asking if, for Christ's sake, his wife, who happens to be the World's Most Desirable Woman, had finished on the phone with that dork from England yet. As far as I was aware, we'd only just started. But Pamela's got other ideas.

"It's beautiful outside," she says suddenly. "There's not a cloud in the sky, so we're eager to get outside and go play with out dogs."

Okay, fine. I think I'm getting a feel for where I stand. Pamela seems to think there's no future for us - and hardly any present, if you want the truth. But if only she could see what a caring, sharing, listening type I am, then a brief conversation with me might rank slightly higher than taking some dogs for a walk. And if only I can get her not to change her mind immediately after agreeing with me, we might be on to something. So here goes.

Me: Where do you live?
Her: By the beach.
Me: Santa Monica?
Her: Yeah!
Me: It's nice there
Her: No... further north.


Oh! Well, at least it's close to the Baywatch location, where Pamela will be heading come August to do a whole other batch of episodes with the rest of the over-developed beautiful young people (and David Hasselhoff), the better to continue the money-making machine that the world's most popular TV show has now become. Baywatch has made Pamela a worldwide superstar, nowhere more so than in Britain, were she is mobbed in the streets, and from where she receives huge wodges of e-mails every day. It must be tough-ish, living life in such a spotlight, even when you encourage it, and indeed Pamela is getting a little upset about the constant intrusions.

"It's hard, it's frustrating, but it's all part of it, it's not something you complain about," she muses. "But in some ways when you want your privacy, and when you want to go round and buy your Pampers and your baby stuff, it just seems like there's private moments and there's moments where it seems appropriate. I have nothing against anybody, lots of the people that I've met are really nice, but some of them, like the people around here, a couple of the ones around here are really greasy little guys that, you know, if they were following me without a camera I would report them as stalkers. I don't feel comfortable with these strange people!"

But what about Tommy Lee? My Goodness me, if ever there was a gentleman who could see off a bunch of greasy little paps, it's him. Why don't you just set him on them?

"He's has to be good!" says Pamela. "Unfortunately."
But Tommys's a hard nut, isn't he? Hard drinkin', hard livin', biting the heads off whippets all that stuff?
"He used to. I don't know... He doesn't have time for that any more."
Doesn't he?
"He works too hard."
That must be dull.
"Since I've known him, he's... I've never had that kind of lifestyle," says Pamela. "We still have a lot of fun, we still do a lot of things together, we don't go out very much, but we entertain at home a lot. Well, we did - now we don't. Now we're being very good. I have nine weeks to go, so we've been focusing on having a baby and living a healthier lifestyle."


You may have read that the baby Pam's been waiting for (after two miscarriages) is going to be called Brandon Thomas Lee. You may have read all sorts of things about Pamela Anderson. She's not the world's shyest, retiringist type, what with the countless Playboy spreads (including a record-breaking six covers) and the Really, Really Rude Pictures (of which more later). But when you talk to someone like Pamela, you really need to know from the horse's mouth how much of what's written is true. So, let's test her out on some of the more recent tabloid tales.

Story one. She pulled out of a movie called Hello. She lied and was sued for $3.2 million. Yes?

"No," says Pamela. "They were trying to sue me for more than that , and I didn't pull out of it, I read the script and they said I showed interest, but I didn't and that has all worked itself out anyway. But everyone tries to sue you and we just say, 'Get in line, get in line, get to the back of the line, we'll get to you soon, take a number...'"

Who else is suing you then ?

"I don't know, who knows ?" she says merrily. (A slight diversion: Saying "I don't know" seems to be inordinately uncomfortable for many people - does it not ? - so loathe are most folk to admit there may be something in the universe which they haven't figured out yet. Pamela is a glorious exception. Pray continue.) "Oh just a lot of people, who knows? If a drum stick breaks and shoots across a room and hits someone they'll sue for, who knows, emotional distress, who know? It's ridiculous!"

Story two. You, in a jealous fir of pique-like anger, got your stand-in Melissa Parks fired from Baywatch. True or false?

"She got herself fired for lying and stealing a Baywatch suit and misrepresenting the show," corrects Pamela. "She made up a story that said the producers saw her and thought she looked like me and hired her. But she was on the show long before me, so maybe they saw me and thought that I looked like her and they hired me! You know, I don't know."

Story three. You take spooky herbal stuff like echinacea and goldenseal, whatever they are. Hmmm?

"Whaaaatt!? Oh my God! Echinacea! I take echinacea, but I don't know too much about Chinese 'erbs and Indian spiritual medicines. I don't take goldenseal root. You can't take it when you're pregnant. It's a combination usually found with echinacea, which is for your immune system, and I guess it's just one of those healthy... I really don't know what goldenseal is, but it's probably up the same alley, along the same lines as your immunities. I don't take echinacea all that much, just if I'm around a bunch of sick people."

And what of The Pictures? The Really, Really Rude Pictures? The Astonishingly Frank, Well, Lets Be Honest Pornographic Pictures? These very possibly apocryphal images of Tommy Lee and Pamela up to all sorts of naughtiness were, some alleged, deliberately leaked by the couple to the press, for reasons unknown (though only a couple of "top shelf" magazines have, I believe, published them). Others say that you can't be sure that it is the beauteous twosome in the picture, and actually it's probably a couple of lookalike�s. What's the story there?

"Oh Yeah," says Pamela hesitantly. "Erm.. those pictures. Well, they're stolen property, so if anybody's printed them, they're breaking the law basically. Someone stole them out of our house. There were all sorts of rumours that we had some photographer to take these pictures, but believe me, if we hired a photographer we wouldn't have blurry Polaroids. That would have been a waste of money!"

So they are yours? And they are you?

"Yes, and I wish I had them back because I want them for our photo album. I don't want them for the world to see."

There is a pause. The thing is, I simply cannot summon up the courage to tell Pamela that I have seen copies of the pictures, gawped in amazement at copies of the pictures, and I could probably track them down again if she really does want them back...

Still, it has to be said that most of the press that Pamela Anderson gets is pure joy, PR-wise. Particularly in the UK, she is quite simply adored by one and all. And it must be more than her being fabulous looking, because Sophie Marceau is probably more beautiful, and no one clogs her e-mail, or at least not as far as we know. People have said it's because she looks like a child. Because of her breasts. Who knows? Maybe she does. So, any theories as to why you're so massively popular with, well, everybody?

"I don't know, I don't know," says Pamela after some thought. "Because I really haven't done a lot, I've been in LA for six years and sometimes I'm confused by all the attention, especially in England, but i guess the show is really popular, and David Hasselhoff is really popular and i think that... I don't know, I can't begin to understand why. Really."

But let's face it. There are lots of beautiful women in California, aren't there? What's so special about you? You must have thought about it.

"I don't know. I really don't know! I don't know. I think I'm just straightforward and honest and I'm candid about things and that's why I don't understand the misunderstandings, because if anybody were to wonder about anything, they could just ask me and i'd tell them, there's no charade or manipulation going on with me. When all the lies are written, I just go. 'Why did they say that, why didn't they just call and ask?"

And that assessment turns out to be gloriously true when we finally get around to the subject of Barb Wire. There is no charade or pretence her at all. In fact, there is so little selling going on that you can't help but wonder whether the film will be a complete mess. Most movie stars could work in telephone sales, cold-calling to off-load condos in Chernobyl, so well-honed are their bullshit-creating mechanisms. But Pamela is wonderfully straight. Here's how it went.

Me: We haven't seen Barb Wire over here. What's it like? Hello? Hello? I do not bastard believe this... Hello? (I slam the phone down)
The phone: Ring, ring!
Pamela: Hello? What happened there?
Me: You left me again.
Pamela: Heehee!
Me: I was saying, we haven't seen Barb Wire over here. what's it like?
Pamela: I haven't seen it either, I haven't seen anything on film, just a rough video.
Me: And how does it look, what you've seen so far?
Pamela: I'm excited about it. I'm excited about the music. The soundtrack is incredible. Everybody is on it. I think it's going to be a good thing. I mean, I hope so. You never know. It's opening May 3 all over, so we'll see. You know what? It's a lot of fun.
Me: Well, let's hope so.
Pamela: Yeah!


Let's indeed hope so, although it could possibly be true, as has been quoted in the not-so-quality press, that Pamela is no longer bothered about movies, that the only career worth worrying about is motherhood...

"I wanna do more things, but you never know," she says. "I've gotta see how this movie goes and how people respond to it and we'll see after that, but right now I'm really focussed on having a baby and seeing what kind of time I'll have. I don't wanna do the whole nanny thing. My mom's moving here, my mom and dad are moving to California. So I wanna... Tommy and I wanna raise our own children."

Are there some favourite directors you'd like to work with if you make more movies?

"I really don't know. If I could work with David Hogan (director of Barb Wire) for every movie after this, I would do it. He's my favourite."

And what about Tarantino? Scorsese? Spielberg?

"I don't know. I loved working with David, that's all I know. Anybody beyond that, I don't really know. But if anyone said they wanted to work with me, we would see, I don't know, it depends on the project, but David's my favourite, I'd do anything for him!"

Of course, even if there aren't any more films, there's been a lot of talk of the New Bardot, what with the sex kitten bit and the blonde hair and the pout and the Playboy spreads (BB did three to PA's six). What does the woman herself think? Fancy a bit of the New Bardot thang?

"Well, that's a compliment!" squeals Pamela, putting her hand over the receiver. "Just a minute, honey, one minute okay, baby? (Takes her hand away) I'm walking upstairs now, I'm putting on my shoes. Er, yeah, I loved her whole presence and everything about her, but I don't know, I have my own life, I don't think I could be a new anybody."

And with a brief thank you and good luck, Pamela Anderson is gone. She has her shoes on, she has her dogs on her leash, she has the Really Greasy little Guys in attendance, and she has Tommy waiting impatiently for her downstairs, presumably with my name on a bullet in one of his (presumably) many hand-guns.

Pamela Anderson: Bimbo or Bardot?

Pam's Overal Rating (by AskMen.com)

overall rating : 93

Why does she get a 93? If she doesn't deserve it, no one does! While talent and professional achievements do come into play in our rating system, Pamela Anderson's physical accomplishments and talents have pushed her score way up. The notorious video of her and Tommy Lee is required viewing in order to get a feel for her natural abilities.

Pamela has gone from pin-up girl to actress to uber-celebrity mostly based on her phenomenal looks. She has a huge cult following all around the world, comprised mainly of men of all ages who can't get enough of this blonde bombshell. She has experienced a rough couple of years, with custody battles over her two sons, and her diagnosis of hepatitis C. We know Pam's tough enough to overcome these obstacles, and continue to entertain us in her own unique way.

Pam's interview with E Online

TV's new VIP on gettin' naked, bein' a drama queen--and (shhh!) her secret ache

by Luaine Lee

In case you had any doubts, Pamela Anderson Lee is a very important person.

It says as much on her new syndicated series, V.I.P. Lee is the star and exec producer of the show, in which she plays a reluctant bodyguard facing a series of unplanned twists and awkward scrapes.

Seems appropriate, considering Lee's own life. The blond bombshell was a fitness instructor in British Columbia when she was discovered at a football game by beer maker Labatt's. (She happened to be wearing one of their T-shirts at the time.)

Hawking brewski paved Pam's road to Hollywood, where she punched in as the Tool Time girl on Home Improvement and beautified the California coast on Baywatch.

But it was the five nude layouts and bestselling video for Playboy that ensured her massive, uh, fame. It was also just the kickoff of Lee's career as a bare-all starlet.

An allegedly stolen homemade X-rated video starring Pam and rocker-husband Tommy Lee set off a frenzy in Hollywood and a legal battle with an Internet company that sought to profit from the tape.

The couple left the courtroom in defeat, only to return a few months later--this time facing each other after Pam accused Tommy of kicking her while she was holding then seven-week-old Dylan. (He's now nine months; older brother Brandon is two.) The rocker was sentenced to six months in jail for spousal battery (he was released in August), and Pamela filed for divorce.

Now 31, she is hoping to get attention with more, well, conventional onscreen exploits. Will fans follow Pam into the V.I.P. area? Something tells us they just might.

How do you feel about everything that has happened with Tommy?
I've learned a lot. And in a way, it looks negative, but it's all positive. My husband has definitely learned a lot. And, you know, it's all going to be good in the future...I really believe in fate. I believe I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be every moment of every day.

Many women who are abused never have the courage to speak up. Why did you?
You have to do what you have to do. And I have two little children, and I'll do anything to make sure they're in a loving environment.

It seems motherhood has really affected you.
I don't take as much crap as I used to. You know, once you give birth, once you have kids, you realize what's important in life, and you realize it's really not difficult to be a good person. And so when people aren't good around me, I tend to move away from that. There are so many good people in the world, and you want to surround your children with that. I gave birth at home both times--natural--with a midwife, in water...with nothing.
No anesthesia? No doctor?
Nothing, not even Tylenol.

That was pretty brave.
Brave! Oh, I have huge balls. Yes I do. My brother says that.

And yet sometimes you seem almost shy.
My mom can't believe I was in Playboy, because growing up, I was very shy. I had a real strong imagination. I won awards for creative writing. There's the person who lives inside my head and the person I really am.

But how can a shy person bare it all for the world?
Playboy is really a different side of me that I didn't know was there. Some of my happiest times--and this seems kind of crazy--are doing photo shoots. I love them because I can be anybody I want in a split second. It's harder to maintain that over a television show or on film, but I can be 6 billion different people in a roll of film. I still don't like looking at the pictures, though.

Why not?
I love doing what I do, but I don't like seeing the finished product. I'm starting to. I like my new show and watching dailies.But I've done things before where I couldn't watch the show.

What things?
Well, actually Tommy has never seen an episode of Baywatch. I wouldn't let anybody watch anything. My mom has seen them. That's a little different.

What kind of a kid were you?
Always in trouble. I was a drama queen right from a very young age.

What things did you do to get into trouble?
I put my brother in a barrel and told him not to come out until I told him to. Then I alerted the whole town that he was missing. The cops were there and the fire department. When they found him, he said, "I can't come out till Pam tells me to."

You really fell into acting. Do you like it? Is it something you'd always wanted to do?
I never knew this is what I wanted to do when I started. I was like...well, this is interesting, but I don't think I could ever be any good at this.

Has that changed?
I'm having fun on the show. I'm working with some great people and great writers. And it's such a combination of everybody. When you see somebody on television who you think is a good actor or actress, you don't realize that it's a combination of so many things.

It's not just them. It's the writers, the editors, the people in production. I have such a great group around me right now that I have a lot more confidence in that department. And I'm loving it.

How does it feel to be the star, actually the real VIP of your own show?
I never realized that being with a studio was so...it's like being married. It's so sweet. They're so worried about me. I think people are kind of drawn to me because I'm very honest about myself and my personal life. I just think they're always worried that I'm actually going to say something about my life.

I'm not going to go on and on about my personal life, but I think I've been a very strong person, and I think I've gone through a lot of things a lot of other people have. I don't think I'm any different from anybody else. But life has lots of challenges, and you always come out of them. So, I think I'm a good example of that.

You've had some rough patches. Which was the roughest?
Lately, with my husband--that was very, very unexplainable. But it's another thing I know we'll get through. It's very hard.

Is there something you want to do that you haven't done?
I played saxophone for seven years in school, and there's a musical side of me that's aching to come out. I sang all through school. I sang all the solos and sang in a jazz choir until one stupid boyfriend told me I couldn't sing. And I didn't sing or dance anymore after that.

I think it was just a controlling thing. But I'm just aching every day to do it, and I think someday I will. My brother's a musician, and I've been saying we should go into a recording studio and record something. But I still have that mental block.

Who has most inspired you in your life?
I didn't realize the impact that my relationship with my grandfather had on my life until much later. He's not around anymore. He passed away when I was 11. But he taught me all the principles of how I run my life.

He was a very spiritual person. He taught me how to meditate, and he always said I wasn't an extension of anybody else or the town I lived in. He said I had a new life to do whatever I want with and to be a good person and to just take opportunities as they come and go, with the flow, day by day.

Play It Again Pam - Sci-Fi Universe May 1996

Play It Again Pam

by Todd Krieger


Don't be surprised if, as a red-blooded American Male, you find yourself completely alone at your place of work or higher education on May 3rd of this year. That's the opening day for Barb Wire, the big-screen debut for Baywatch's mega-global star Pamela Anderson, who aside from bit parts in forgettable movies such as Good Cop, Bad Cop and Some Kind of Wonderful hasn't stormed the silver screen in the same fashion that she has beamed into homes around the world or flown off magazine racks across the USA. The highly recognizable actress, who has graced the cover of Playboy more than any other woman in history, and who has an equally impressive resume in the audio-visual arena , has not really had the same success at the theaters.

Pamela's Resume


Home Improvement: #1 rated show in the US
Baywatch: #1 show in the known Universe
The Best of Pamela Anderson (Playboy Video): #1 video of the summer 1995


If the attention that was showered on her in Cannes this Spring she arrived via speedboat to find literally hundreds of paparazzi stumbling over each other desperately angling for the shot was any indication of the reception that Barb Wire will receive, it just might be the early leader in the annual summer box office sweepstakes and turn Anderson into an even larger phenomenon. At the very least it's clear that her audience the male population between the ages of 12 and 50 will be there to support her as movie magic further expands the larger than-life mythos of Canada's 28 year old sweetheart.

Proving that in Hollywood, star-power is worth more than its weight in gold, Barb Wire was green lit on the strength of Anderson's name alone (a name that has since been changed to Pamela Anderson-Lee following her marriage to Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee). Barb Wire, a little known comic based in the superhero universe known as Comic's Greatest World, was just one of Dark Horse Entertainment's many properties that company heads Mike Richardson and Todd Moyer were looking to put into production. Then, in rapid succession, producer Brad Wyman told Richardson, founder and President of Dark Horse, that he had Pamela Anderson's ear, the project was pitched to her, and from there financing was a fait accompli. "Brad told us that he had access to Pamela Anderson," recalls Richardson. "We pitched Barb Wire and she loved it."

Anderson, who has been quoted in interviews regarding her love of Bullfinch's Mythology and the writings of Carl Jung, felt that playing Barb would be a great opportunity. "My manager was getting a bunch of scripts in and he said, 'I don't even know why I'm telling you this but I've got this movie based on a cartoon character but you're not playing a cartoon character.' I don't know what he expects me to be, but at the time I said okay. Then some time later I was asking about it, 'Who's that character she rides a motorcycle, shoots guns and is an action hero? I want to do it.' I got the comics and said this is me. Nobody else can play this this has everything that I want to do."

Her obvious appeal as a celebrity, coupled with Baywatch's weekly viewing audience of one billion worldwide, gives Anderson the kind of heft at the global box office that few stars of either sex can match, a fact not lost on the film's producers, Polygram Filmed Entertainment. "Polygram is huge in Europe and with their strength in foreign distribution and Pamela in it, the numbers looked very good," recalls Richardson. "We did the deal and raced like crazy to get moving. This all happened in January ['95] and principal photography began by May 24th."

Loosely based on the comic book, Barb Wire is a post-apocalyptic shoot-em 'up with Anderson starring as Barbara Kopetski, the ass kickin', name taking, bounty hunter with allegiance to neither man nor country. Barb's creator, comic book writer Chris Warner, admits that having his pen and ink drawings transmute into flesh and blood has surpassed his wildest imaginings. "I never envisioned her as oozing this kind of bombshell quality, but when Pamela walks across the screen it definitely adds another level to the character," says Warner.

While elements of Warner's comic book vision have been retained Barb still owns and operates the Hammerhead Bar situated in the fictional town of Steel Harbor and she's still a bounty hunter who rides a motorcycle and handles weapons of every shape and size the super-hero antics of the comic book (and her cohort and sometime bodyguard, the cyborg known as The Machine) are nowhere to be found.

"The comic book is based in a super hero world and the interaction between those heroes", explains Richardson. "Those aren't the elements to played up in a Barb Wire motion picture, which is focused on one individual story where Barb is reluctantly drawn into a situation that compels her to action."

Even with a draw of the magnitude of Pamela Anderson, adapting a comic-book can be a tricky enterprise, as evidenced by the box office flame outs of popular cult comic heroes in the Stallone stinker Judge Dredd and the tanked Tank Girl. Couple that with the intense pressure to get the film scripted, blocked and have production completed before Baywatch began shooting after its hiatus, and time concerns became paramount. Todd Moyer, Dark Horse Entertainment VP and Executive Producer on the film, credits action writer Chuck Pfarrer (Hard Target, . Darkman) with giving the picture its look and feel and delivering a script that put the project on a pace to get completed.

"We knew we could make the movie with . his draft," says Moyer. "He scripted the . action sequences. We wanted to make sure that the character Barb Wire defended her . self in a realistic fashion. It wouldn't be , believable to have her beating up ten huge . guys. It's more in the style of say, Steven Seagal in Above the Law when he walks, down the street and drops a couple of guys with an elbow. It's important that she be smart and use her best assets in fighting and uses them in a surgical fashion."

The Pfarrer draft more than vaguely resmbles the film school staple and rookie Screenwriter's bible, Casablanca. Though the script was undergoing revisions nearly every day as shooting went on ("One day they want the ramp at the back of the truck to drop down, the next day they don't. There's something new every day," offered one special effects coordinator).

Just as Casablanca was set in neutral Morocco against the backdrop of World War II, Steel Harbour is the free zone in the aftermath of the Second Civil War and free Canada is the promised land. Anderson's Barb is the doppleganger for Bogie's Rick: she's the jaded, bitter bar owner with a broken heart, and the Hammerhead, if viewed through a twisted, demented, is a virtual stand-in for Rick's American Cafe. As Bogie had to wrestle with his conscience and broken past when former love Ingrid Bergman needs assis tance in getting her husband, the key to the Allied Resistance, out of Casablanca, so too must Barb face her demons when Axel Hood (Temeura Morrison) comes knocking on her door seeking safe passage for his wife, who just happens to be...you guessed it....the key to the rebel resistance. Only this time, instead of transit papers being the magic ticket to freedom, the plot is based around the hunt for special contact lenses which allow the wearer to bypass retinal scans and pass into free Canada.

Much as it seems to be something of a stretch to think of Pamela Anderson playing a role requiring the hard edged cool of a Humphrey Bogart, the even more difficult task falls to Morrison to add weight as the long-lost love with an agenda in a film that walks a tenuous line between having a titillating camp sensibility and being a dark, oppressive action epic. Bit as anyone who saw Once Were Warriors might figure, Morrison handles his duties with aplomb.

"Temeura is phenomenal," offers Jack Noseworthy, who plays Barb's blind brother Charlie. "He is a spectacular talent, very Brando-esque. It's like he's got this internal machine working all the time and when he wants to, he just turns it on and makes it happen."

The frenetic push to get the film finished forced Barb costume designer Rosanna Norton and art director Jean Philippe Carp (best known for his work on the French sensation Delicatessen) to begin working on the picture even before a director was hired. "I began putting together the principle of the bar in March," says the Frenchman Carp. "For me, it was important to approach the film psychologically from the point of view of what material is available to these people trapped in this neutral zone hence all the bare, naked metal."

Costume designer Norton had been schooled in the dangers of too literal an adapttion stylistically or otherwise from previous work on genre films such as Casper, The FlintstonesandTron. "What looks great in the comic would look really stupid in the movie," she admits. "If we dressed some one in a pink and blue outfit like Barb is in the comic, even someone with Pamela's figure would come out looking fat and silly".

With assistance from Norton, Anderson has clearly become Barb, right down to the tattoo that now adorns her left arm. "It's synchronicity. Just like what happened with Jim Carrey and The Mask," marvels Barb's creator Chris Warner. "Look at the comic Barb Wire and who comes to mind?. Pamela. Nobody else could play her. "Not surprisingly, the costumes for the movie are truly out of this world and put Anderson's ample assets in full view. "We'd be tying her into her corset saying, Honey, we don't want to hurt you' and Pam would just say 'Pull it tighter," says the ebullient. costume designer. "One of the real challenges was to dress her doubles, we had to be virtually surgeons with double-sided tape and padding." Alongside Anderson's readily apparent , gifts, she's proud of the athletic prowess she brings to the role. "I was athlete of the year in high school and I just really wanted to do this," says the Baywatch beauty who unabashedly mentions that some time ago she told Details of her desire to play Pambo. "I kickboxed for a couple of months and learned how to ride a motorcycle, and learned to fire every kind of fully-automatic, semi automatic weapon that there is."

Shedding her little-girl-lost image was not without its hardships, however. "I've had guns around me my whole life, but my dad always taught me, 'Keep away from those things.' The only problem I had was that the shells kept popping out since I was firing blanks and I couldn't wear glasses." Showing that she's equal parts beauty and brawn, Anderson squeezed off round after round of the aptly named 20 pound Desert Eagle machine gun all while managing to keep her heels on and hair in place.

Anderson brings a nearly snarling ferocity to the picture as she executes whirling kicks, fires rapid-fire pistols and machine guns and spits out Barb's catch phrase,"Don't call me Babe."

Producer Richardson who felt that Anderson was "out stunting the stunt women" hasn't been the only one to sing . Anderson's praises. Co -star Noseworthy also felt that working with the misunderstood beauty was a rare treat. "I had no expectations," he says. "She's just an incredibly nice girl and is not really anything like the caricature image people see in the media.We had a total blast. I can still remember my first day on the set. Pamela, Temeura and I were slinging huhge machine guns through fire. In the flashback sequence, we're beating people up, shooting guns playing G.I. Joe and just having the best time."

Despite having backers on the set and being generally well liked by most of the cast and crew alike, the picture's first director Adam Rifkin (whose previous credits include the Charlie Sheen starrer The Chase and the thoroughly cultish The Dark Backward) was taken off the picture after just a week of shooting. The cryptic "creative differences" was the official reason stated by producer Todd Moyer adding that, "It's now a bigger-budget picture and there is more time to shoot it."

Rifkin's replacement was the director David Hogan, whose big screen work includes directing the second unit action sequences on the giganto Batman Forever and doing the same for Aliens. While the change was greeted with less than unanimous approval, everybody seemed to take the shift in stride. "Sure, I was disappointed," opines designer Norton. "Adam had a surrealistic vision and a very interesting view about where he wanted to take this picture. Now we're doing more of a music video thing, a more commercial picture and it will be very interesting to see how those two visions will match up."

"It's unfortunate for any movie to have that kind of massive upheaval," adds Noseworthy, "but I was hired to a job and that's what I'm here to do." Noseworthy, who rose to fame as the lead in the cancelled MTV series Dead at 21, was both excited and amused by playing a blind character, "Great! I'm in a film with Pamela Anderson and I'm blind and I play her brother. Somebody somewhere has a very twisted sense of humor." While he researched the part extensively, taking courses at a Braille Institute and learning how to go through life as a blind person, on shooting days he was literally blinded by wearing contacts with white lenses that completely covered his eyes. "I wanted to play it straight, which would have been more creative, but for reasons having to do with the storyline they wanted me to wear these Ienses."

The film's sets were built inside the old Hughes Airforce Base in Marina Del Rey, the location which Dreamworks SKG recently co-opted for their new facilities. In addition to Barb's bedroom comlete with indoor jacuzzi is the massive two tiered Hammerhead bar. "I wanted the bar to be huge, to give the director a bird's eye view of everything," says Carp. "We had two different concrete floors existing so on one level we have the bar, and then on a lower level there is the kitchen and the dance floor. Then there is the mesh grid to protect the bartender from fights."

As proprietor of the Hammerhead, Barb has an office that looks out on the chaos of the weapons free bar below (there's a gun-check at the front door) while the office doubles as her armory. Presiding over this techno wasteland of Ieather, treachery and booze is Curly, the aide-de-camp, confidante and maitre d' of the Hammerhead, played by the unforgettable Udo Kier. The self styled wizard of camp, Kier made an indelible mark on horror fans every where early in his career with his back to backperformances in the Andy Warhol cult films Dracula and Frankenstein. Talking about how he got cast as Barb's number one guy, Kier relates the German actor's stereotyping dilemma. "I had been offered the part of the villain, but I wanted to be Curly, he says "I had just done Johnny Mnemonic and I didn't want to get typecast. It is so easy for that to happen when you are a foreigner."

Once he had the part, though, there were still more casting hijinks to follow. "I've worked in films for over 30 years and never been on a film where the director was changed. I went to the new director's house in Malibu to meet him because I was cast by the first director. We laughed and we laughed and made up this very funny character with a bald head and a tattoo of a fly on his cheek." The picture has had a bumpy ride though. Alongside the change within the first week of shooting, Anderson had serious health problems which placed added pressure on the already rushed production, causing valuable shooting days to be missed and no small amount of nerves to be fried. Summing up the shoot, Anderson reels off a laundry list of events surrounding the picture, which in her mind might just end up adding flavor to the whole endeavor. "There was the first director, then the second director, then I had some medical problems on the set and I got married just before the movie, which is probably really bad timing," she says. "I said, 'Well, I hope this chaos adds to the whole vibe of the movie' because this movie is chaos and I think that in the end it will be great."

Those medical problems turned out to be a pregnancy that ended when Anderson suffered a miscarriage. "People were very understanding," recalIs Noseworthy. "Sure, we're trying to shoot a movie, but this woman had a miscarriage. There are more serious thinqs goinq on." Despite everything the rushed production schedule, beginning production without a script or Director, the director being changed, Pamela's pregnant, Pamela's not pregnant every person on the set reiterated time and again what a phenomenal time they had making the movie and the sincere sentiment that they hoped the fun would translate well to the big screen. Whether or not the "chaos" was a good thing remains to be seen, but when you've got Pamela Anderson in tighter than you can imagine leather pants, made up to look like a cross between a hooker and a hitman, at the end of the day, it just might not matter.

Lust Action Hero - Premiere May 1996

Lust Action Hero


BY KRISTEN O'NEILL
* PHOTOGRAPHED BY LANCE STAEDLER *

wo of Pamela Anderson Lee's best assets--the right one and the left one--are resting on a corner table at Shutters, a bright beachfront eatery in Santa Monica. They are smaller than you'd expect, and surprisingly delicate, like the rest of her five-foot-seven, five-months-pregnant frame. She leans forward, allowing her lunch guest to touch them.

They are her hands. Long, manicured nails polished a pearly white flow flawlessly into slender fingers devoid of accessory, save for a single word--tommy's--elegantly inked around her ring finger. "Big Mike did that,'' she says, drawing attention as well to the artfully shaded ring of barbed wire that wraps around her left biceps, the tattoo she got to kick off production on Barb Wire, her feature-film starring-role debut, which opens around the country this month--right around the time she is due to give birth to her first child, by her husband, Motley Cr�e drummer Tommy Lee.

"I think women are more beautiful when they're pregnant--you definitely have a higher sex drive,'' she says, laughing. "It's a much more sensual thing if you're creating a life together; it's really, really wild.''

She is considering some below-the-beltline piercing, "but not until after the baby. You've gotta be careful. Tommy was having his nipple pierced, and I asked the guy, 'If you pierce my nipple, will it spray out three different ways?' 'Well, it already sticks out like a shower head--who cares?' And I'm, like, 'It does?' " She pauses in the middle of her chopped salad ni�oise to retrieve a page from her husband. She smiles as she shows the beeper display: 007. "It means he loves me, but I don't have to call him back,'' she says.


Without question these are heady, hormone-rich times for Pamela Anderson Lee, the 28-year-old fantasy-object phenomenon launched from the pages of Playboy whose blond hair bleached the color of a klieg light, breathtakingly enhanced breasts, and Bardot-with-a-bullwhip persona have come to embody the '90s bimbo. In addition to gracing an unprecedented six Playboy covers, not to mention a slew of top-selling posters and calendars, she has scored a hat trick of small-screen number ones: Home Improvement, a top-rated show in the U.S.; the syndicated smash Baywatch, said to be the world's most popular television program; and Playboy's The Best of Pamela Anderson home video, which bumped Forrest Gump from the video-sales chart's top slot. Her seat-of-the-bikini Cancun marriage to Tommy Lee, after the couple had known each other just four days ("In the morning we woke up and he goes, 'Do you drink coffee? Do you like eggs?' "), shot her public profile into the stratosphere, and capped an impressive--and still unabated--tabloid run, which has included the publication of some honeymoon Polaroids in which Anderson Lee is shown committing an act of considerable friendliness on her presumably grateful husband.

The attention is all the more striking considering it's based on little more than how Anderson Lee looks in (and out of) a bathing suit. "I think what has happened to Pam has happened by default,'' says Marilyn Grabowski, Playboy's West Coast photo editor and a longtime associate of Anderson Lee's. "All Pam had to do was go stand on that street corner. As many beautiful girls as there are, there are very few Pamelas."

Her status figures to grow further this month with the release of Barb Wire--a slickly shot B movie from Gramercy Pictures that hopes to fashion Anderson Lee into the female action star Hollywood has always yearned to create, ready to both kick ass and bare it at a moment's notice. But in its less-than-infinite wisdom, Hollywood made a strikingly ironic choice for the role of a self-sufficient, don't-!&$@-with-me heroine in Anderson Lee--who throughout her stay in Hollywood has been a sweetly pliant prefeminist, come to conquer not the town but a man whom she could wed and to whom she could bear children. It is that goal--not fame or money or stardom--that she has pursued most avidly, propelling her through a series of failed relationships with a host of high-profile men.

That goal, at least, she says she has attained, via her whirlwind marriage to Lee, whom friends and associates agree exerts adamantine control over his wife. Her never-a-dull-moment behavior on the Barb Wire set--from Lee-led fights with producers to fainting spells, womanly problems, trips to the hospital, uncharacteristic surliness, and trailer-rocking lunchtime trysts--has prompted friends and colleagues to invoke the names of such fallen icons as Dorothy Stratten and Marilyn Monroe when speaking of the sweet, naive Canadian girl.

And yet . . . in person, Anderson Lee is hardly the plastic figurine splashed across magazine covers and tabloids. Her freshly washed hair drapes over her freshly scrubbed face, revealing high cheekbones sprinkled with light freckles, and a tiny zit over her right eyebrow. She wears square-heeled black pumps and a sleeveless, mauve knit dress that softly falls just far enough below her bottom. Five months and one week pregnant on this day (the baby is due in May), Anderson Lee sports a belly swollen to the approximate size of the slight nagging bulge that millions of women sweat through aerobics and sets of abdominal crunches every day to obliterate.

To meet her is to like her, immediately. An animated storyteller with "madness in her head,'' she waves her hands emphatically and discusses her love of flaming-hot Chee-tos, Pringles light BBQ-flavor potato chips, and Shirley MacLaine--her favorite actress--with the same enthusiasm that she exudes when recounting a recent naked water-skiing escapade.

It's safe to say that Anderson Lee never envisioned that her meager show business credits would place her at the forefront of mainstream pop culture worldwide; in typically self-deprecating style, she finds the Pamela Phenomenon, coming soon to a theater near you, as mystifyingly funny as anyone would. "It's this high-profile thing--for nothing, really,'' says Anderson Lee. "I don't understand it. It's just bizarre. I go to Europe and there's all this madness, it's crazy. I'm, like, What's this based on? I haven't done anything.''

here have been many action stars and many action films, but Pamela Anderson Lee might be the first person ever to have begun an action movie and stopped taking her birth-control pills, in hopes of getting pregnant, at the same time. At first she wrote off the cramps she started experiencing during some of Barb Wire's fight scenes to morning sickness. "I have a very high tolerance for pain,'' says Anderson Lee. "I'm not a whiner. I didn't want to disappoint them. This is my first movie and I don't want to be known as a problem, because I'm always on time and I always work really hard.''

The camera was rolling on day four of one sequence when Anderson Lee nearly fainted. "She was literally at the point where she says, 'Don't call me babe,' '' says director David Hogan, referring to the cine-moment when Barb Wire levels her gun at the bad guys and delivers her signature tag line. "Her hands were shaking. She almost passed out before we got that take done. Then we did one more shot and she almost went down again.''

A trip to the hospital revealed that Anderson Lee had a cyst the size of a grapefruit on one of her ovaries. Production shut down for four days while she underwent surgery. "The day I could move my legs,'' Anderson Lee says, "I came back to work.''

In June, Anderson Lee took a pregnancy test in her trailer with her best friend and assistant on the film, Melanie Arthur. The results came up positive, and Anderson Lee saved the test to show Lee when he arrived on location. Her elation was short-lived: Weeks later, she miscarried. (Her current pregnancy was confirmed by doctors in October.) Production shut down for another two days.

It was at this point that friends and colleagues began to notice what they saw as a dramatic change in Anderson Lee. "She just became increasingly exhausted,'' says Arthur. "[The miscarriage] took a lot out of her, and it just added to the stress of having a new marriage and not knowing your husband before you're married. I'm sure it was really hard for her to concentrate on the movie.''

Now the actress--who used to fall asleep in her truck outside of her makeup artist's house if she arrived early for her 5 a.m. Baywatch preparation session--was habitually late to the set and regularly asked to leave work early. She stomped around her trailer throwing hissy fits when a wardrobe dresser would attempt to make costume changes. On one occasion, Anderson Lee even threw an Evian bottle at a crew member. Those at the shoot were quick to fault the influence of Tommy Lee, a constant presence hovering on the set and drinking with his buddies in her trailer.

"Tommy never disrupted a day of shooting,'' counters Hogan. "If he did, I wasn't aware of it.'' All the same, crew members regularly grouped around her trailer at lunchtime, gawking as it literally rocked and rolled while she and Lee had sex inside. Perhaps as a result, postlunch makeup, hair, and costume touch-up sessions that had formerly taken an hour to complete stretched to three hours. "There were times when I said, 'It's time for [Pamela] to come out of her trailer,' and she took a little longer than she should,'' says Hogan. "But I've never worked with a woman that didn't happen to.''





"I was overwhelmed,'' Anderson Lee admits. "My first movie, starring in a film, a lot of pressure. I'm glad Tommy was there. Tommy actually helped me out a lot.''

Lee's influence over Anderson Lee was palpable to crew members. More than one observer recalls Lee's telling her--barely one month pregnant, hardly showing--that she had better say she was three months pregnant in order to explain her burgeoning belly. "I believe she was having a lot of emotional problems, and she was having problems with Tommy,'' producer Todd Moyer says. Was she using drugs--speed, cocaine? "Absolutely not. I do not know that she did any drugs during that time. I believe she partied hard, but I never saw it. Nobody really knows except for Pamela and maybe her doctor.''

"That's why I was asleep in my trailer every five minutes,'' Anderson Lee says when asked if she did drugs at any point during the Barb Wireshoot. "I can't even imagine myself on that stuff. I'm so hyper as it is, if I were to have anything like that, I'd probably go through the roof. There's no way my body could even take it."

The turmoil reached its peak one afternoon in the last month of production, when Anderson Lee asked Moyer if she could leave the set early. Moyer refused to release her. "I started crying: 'You can't talk to me that way,' '' Anderson Lee says of their conversation. " 'I've had no time to emotionally heal from this miscarriage. I came back four days after having had endometriosis surgery.' He said, 'I didn't know you had goddamn surgery. I thought you were just having a miscarriage.' I was, like, 'Just a miscarriage?' Tommy went out to him and said, 'If you ever talk to my wife that way, I'm going to kick your ass. I don't give a fuck who you are.' ''

"She never brought up her illnesses [during our conversation],'' Moyer counters. He claims Anderson Lee wanted to leave early to attend a meeting with Lee and his lawyer. "Pam said to me, 'If I don't go to this meeting, I'm gonna get a divorce from Tommy.' I said, 'Then you have a problem with your relationship. You can't leave in the middle of a $200,000 shooting day.' ''

Anderson Lee insisted that Moyer keep his distance from the set for the remainder of production. "It was shortly thereafter that Todd kind of disappeared,'' Arthur reports, "and we didn't see him much after that at all.''

Anderson Lee also fired managers Ray Manzella and Dennis Brody midway through production. "They misrepresented me,'' she says. "They were constantly demanding things on my behalf. Finally I said, 'I don't need a manager. I don't need a baby-sitter. I definitely don't need a date.' ''

Despite the tempestuous nature of her fifteen-month relationship with Lee--one blowout in Anderson Lee's trailer on the Baywatch set resulted in Lee punching his fist through a cupboard door--Anderson Lee approaches the business of marriage with a doggedly traditional attitude. Against the counsel of her advisers, she has merged not only her life but her finances with those of her husband.

"It's just more comfortable to have everything under the same roof,'' Anderson Lee says. "Tommy and I are determined. Everything is in both our names. It's so bizarre when your business people are going, 'It's really important to keep everything separated.' What are you preparing us for? I go, 'Listen, rule number one, you are wanting to protect me from my husband. We're not going to get a divorce. Screw you people.' ''

And to those who dare suggest that Anderson Lee has undergone a personality change since her marriage to Lee: "I'm really happy with my husband,'' she says. "I'm really happy with my life. Everything is changing for the better. So anyone who says that I've changed for the worse are people that probably aren't in my life anymore.''

Other Pamela Anderson

Crimes of Passion (1984) - This is the movie in which she appeared as a Hooker (for the first time I think). The only problem is that that this pamela anderson is not 'our' Pam, but completely different person. I never found her image or anything else but I am 100% positive that it's not OUR Pam. There can be only one! This same girl appeared in:
Showgirls (1995) as Party Singer
Some Kind of Wonderful (1987) as Party Guest
The Flintstones Little Big League (1979) (TV) (voice) as Pebbles
Although she like to party, she's definitely not our girl :-)

JAY : >> ANY NEW TATTOOS? YOU WERE GONNA GET THAT WAIST ONE.

PAMELA : >> I KNOW. NO, I NEVER DID IT. BUT I'VE KIND OF SLOWED DOWN ON THE TATTOO THING LATELY. I DON'T KNOW. YOU KNOW I GOT -- YEAH, BUT -- YEAH.

[ GIGGLING ]

JAY : >> BUT IT'S GOOD FOR YOU. IT'S GOOD PEOPLE COME THEY SEE YOU. BECAUSE LIKE YOU SAY, PEOPLE READ TABLOIDS. THAT'S WHY I SAID, "WHY DON'T YOU COME ON AND JUST LET PEOPLE SEE THAT YOU ARE A REAL PERSON," BECAUSE SOMETIMES PEOPLE, THEY WATCH "BAYWATCH" AND THESE KIND OF SHOWS AND PEOPLE THINK, "OH, IT'S ALL JUST FUN IN LIFE." BUT IT'S A SERIOUS PROBLEM. AND YOU KNOW, IT'S TOUGH, IT'S TOUGH TO DEAL WITH.

PAMELA : >> IT'S VERY TOUGH. I JUST ACTUALLY TALKED TO A BUNCH OF KIDS ON THE WEEKEND FROM PENNY LANE, WHICH IS A CHARITY. IT'S A SCHOOL WHERE KIDS LIVE. THEY HAVE BEEN ABUSED AND NEGLECTED AND I WENT TO VISIT THEM ON THE WEEKEND AND THEY ASKED ME, OF COURSE, "HOW ARE YOU AND TOMMY?" AND, "SORRY TO HEAR." AND I JUST BURST OUT CRYING FOR A LONG TIME AND I KEPT THE MICROPHONE AND I KEPT TALKING TO THEM AND THEY ALL HELD HANDS. IT WAS SUCH A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE WHERE THEY WERE VERY SUPPORTIVE OF ME. IT WAS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR THEM TO SEE, AS LITTLE, POOR, ABUSED KIDS THAT PEOPLE THEY THINK MAY NOT HURT AND MAY NOT, YOU KNOW, GET THROUGH DIFFICULT TIMES, IT WAS GOOD FOR THEM TO SEE THAT. AND IT WAS REALLY POWERFUL. IT WAS WONDERFUL.

JAY : >> WELL, THAT'S GOOD. DO YOU FEEL BETTER? ARE YOU FEELING OKAY?

PAMELA : >> YEAH, I FEEL GOOD. I FEEL GOOD.

JAY : >> THAT'S GOOD. I'M GLAD YOU CAME.

PAMELA : >> THANKS FOR HAVING ME.

JAY : >> I'M GLAD YOU CAME AND I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS WITH BRANDON AND YOUR FOLKS. AND YOU'RE A GREAT LADY. YOU REALLY ARE SWEET.

PAMELA : >> THANK YOU.

JAY : >> WE ALWAYS HAVE FUN.
