[ APPLAUSE ]

[ PLAYING "BAYWATCH" THEME ]

[ CHEERS ]

JAY : >> NOW WHICH ONE DO YOU LIKE -- YOU TOLD ME YOU LIKE THE INSIDE PICTURE BETTER.

PAMELA : >> YEAH, WHERE I'M WHIPPING THEM.

JAY : >> WHERE YOU'RE WHIPPING BEAVIS AND BUTT-HEAD?

PAMELA : >> YEAH.

[ LAUGHTER ]

JAY : >> WELL, THERE YOU ARE. WHAT CAN BE MORE CHRISTMASSY THAN THAT?

PAMELA : >> EXACTLY.

JAY : >> YOU LOOK GOOD. THAT'S VERY PRETTY. LAST TIME YOU HAD YOUR RUBBER DRESS ON.

PAMELA : >> I KNOW. I THOUGHT I'D WEAR CLOTHES TODAY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAME OVER ME.

JAY : >> NO, NO, YOU LOOK GOOD. HOW YOU DOING? YOU DOING OKAY?

PAMELA : >> YEAH, I'M DOING GOOD. IT'S, YOU KNOW, IT'S A HARD THING, BUT IT'S OKAY.

JAY : >> IT MUST BE ESPECIALLY HARD WHEN EVERYTHING IS ON THE NEWS ALL THE TIME.

PAMELA : >> I KNOW, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S ALL UNTRUE. I MEAN, THEY JUST KEEP MAKING STORIES UP BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. BUT I'VE BEEN DOING A LOT OF INNER BONDING LATELY.

JAY : >> INNER BONDING? WHAT IS THAT?

PAMELA : >> HOW'S YOUR INNER CHILD?

JAY : >> MY INNER CHILD. IT WOULD COST ME $20 MILLION IF I HAD INNER CHILD.

[ LAUGHTER ]

PAMELA : >> NO, IT'S GOOD FOR YOU. I SWEAR. THIS IS A PROCESS THAT HAS TOTALLY SAVED MY LIFE. IT'S WONDERFUL. IT'S REALLY A WONDERFUL THING.

JAY : >> SO WHAT DO YOU DO?

PAMELA : >> YOU KNOW, THIS LADY, MARGARET PAUL? SHE WRITES ALL THESE BOOKS AND HAS SEMINARS. SHE'S UNBELIEVABLE. AND SHE TEACHES YOU THAT EVERYONE HAS AN INNER CHILD. SO WOULD YOU PUT THAT -- NOW I'M A MOTHER SO I CAN REALLY RELATE TO THIS.

JAY : >> YOU HAVE AN ACTUAL CHILD.

PAMELA : >> I HAVE AN ACTUAL CHILD AND I HAVE MY OWN LITTLE PAMELA.

[ LAUGHTER ]

IT'S TRUE. WHEN YOU PUT -- SHE JUST SAID TO ME, "WOULD YOU LET ANYBODY YELL AT BRANDON? WOULD YOU LET ANYONE TREAT BRANDON THIS SPECIFIC WAY?" AND I SAID, "NO, OF COURSE NOT." "WHY WOULD YOU LET THAT HAPPEN TO YOURSELF?" SO --

JAY : >> WELL, THAT'S GOOD, THOUGH.

PAMELA : >> YEAH, IT'S REALLY GOOD. IF YOU CAN THINK ABOUT THAT AND IT REALLY PUT EVERYTHING TOGETHER FOR ME. AND IT'S REALLY HELPED ME, SO I KIND OF THINK OF MYSELF AS A -- LIKE BRANDON.

JAY : >> I KNOW, IN YOUR POSITION, PEOPLE I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT ALL COUPLES HAVE, EXCEPT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT TOMMY LEE, YOUR HUSBAND, AND YET IN YOUR SITUATION, EVEN WHEN YOU GUYS AREN'T DOING ANYTHING, YOU'RE ON THE FRONT PAGE OF THE PAPER FOR "THEY HAD A BURGER! SHE HAD CHEESE, HE DIDN'T." YOU KNOW? SO IN THIS TYPE OF THING WHEN ANYTHING FLARES OR SOMETHING HAPPENS, JUST TO SEE IT MAGNIFIED CONSTANTLY.

PAMELA : >> IT'S A FEEDING FRENZY. IT'S NOT FUN. I TRY TO AVOID ALL TELEVISION AND TABLOIDS, ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M GOING THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THIS. SO I TRY TO AVOID IT, BUT YOU KNOW, JUST THE THINGS -- I MEAN, I'VE GONE INTO THE SUPERMARKET AND LOOKED AT THE TABLOID AND SAID "WHAT?" IT'S JUST RIDICULOUS. THEY KNOW DEFINITELY MUCH MORE THAN I DO.

JAY : >> CAN YOU LAUGH AT IT?

PAMELA : >> I CAN LAUGH AT IT SOMETIMES, YOU KNOW. I'VE CRIED A FEW TIMES OVER IT AND IT LASTED A WHILE BECAUSE IT'S JUST SO SILLY. I MEAN IT'S SO SILLY. THIS IS -- I MEAN, WE HAVE A CHILD TOGETHER. THIS IS A REAL DIFFICULT TIME, AND HE'S A WONDERFUL MAN. HE'S IN RECOVERY FOR ALCOHOL ABUSE AND SO I'M THERE TO SUPPORT HIM, BUT THIS IS A REAL DIFFICULT TIME. IT'S NOT FUNNY. IT'S NOT FUNNY WHEN PEOPLE ARE SAYING RIDICULOUS THINGS.

JAY : >> YEAH, I MEAN, IS THERE A CHANCE THINGS MIGHT WORK OUT OKAY?

PAMELA : >> I DON'T KNOW.

JAY : >> HERE. THESE VERY EXPENSIVE KLEENEXES.

[ LAUGHTER ]

PAMELA : >> THE ONLY KIND I USE. NO, I JUST, YOU KNOW I WISH HIM THE BEST, BUT I'M MORE CONCERNED ABOUT OUR SON AND LIVING IN A REALLY POSITIVE, WONDERFUL, LOVING ENVIRONMENT AND HE'S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.

[ APPLAUSE ]

JAY : >> I KNOW, SOMETIMES PEOPLE SEE -- IT'S TRUE.

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

YOU KNOW, WHEN PEOPLE SEE IN "ROLLING STONE," I MEAN, THEY THINK EVERYTHING IS ALL GLAMOUR AND FUN. BUT I KNOW YOU AND I KNOW YOUR PARENTS, IT SOUNDS SILLY TO SAY WHEN PEOPLE SEE YOU IN THESE OUTFITS. BUT YOU DO, YOU COME FROM THIS LITTLE WEENIE TOWN.

PAMELA : >> A WEENIE TOWN, YEAH.

JAY : >> WHAT'S THE NAME OF YOUR TOWN?

PAMELA : >> WELL, I GREW UP IN LADYSMITH, BUT IT'S COMOX.

JAY : >> COMOX?

PAMELA : >> YEAH.

[ MAN IN AUDIENCE YELLS ]

JAY : >> OH, YEAH, RIGHT, YOU'VE HEARD OF COMOX. NO, THAT'S SMALL POX.

[ LAUGHTER ]

PAMELA : >> NO, IT IS. IT'S IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO REALIZE THAT JUST BECAUSE YOU MAY LOOK LIKE YOU HAVE A LOT GOING IN YOUR LIFE, BUT EVERYONE HAS PROBLEMS.

JAY : >> IT'S TRUE.

PAMELA : >> AND EVERYONE RECOVERS AND EVERYONE HEALS.

JAY : >> WELL, I KNOW YOU'RE A GOOD MOM AND BRANDON IS REAL CUTE. IS YOUR MOM AND DAD STAYING WITH YOU?

PAMELA : >> OF COURSE. YEAH, MY MOM AND DAD -- THEIR FULL-TIME WITH BRANDON. THEY'RE FULL-TIME GRANDPARENTS. THEY'RE WONDERFUL.

JAY : >> NOW WHAT DOES YOUR DAD DO? I KNOW YOUR DAD WAS REPAIRING FURNACES.

PAMELA : >> FURNACES. YEAH, SO NOW HE'S IN CALIFORNIA. HERE'S RETIRED. THERE'S NO OIL FURNACES. EXCEPT YOU SAID YOU HAVE ONE YOU WANT HIM TO FIX?

JAY : >> ACTUALLY, I'VE GOT A BOILER ON A 1906 STANLEY. CAN HE FIX A BOILER? CAN HE MAKE A BOILER?

PAMELA : >> YEAH, SURE. I'M SURE HE CAN.

JAY : >> I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A BOILER MADE BY PAMELA ANDERSON'S FATHER.

PAMELA : >> I'M SURE HE'D LOVE TO FIX JAY LENO'S BOILER.

[ LAUGHTER ]

JAY : >> NOW HOW 'BOUT YOU? ARE YOU HANDY? I KNOW YOU LIKE TO REDECORATE. DO YOU DO THAT?

PAMELA : >> WELL, YOU KNOW, WE REDECORATED OUR ENTIRE HOUSE, BUT THAT IS NOW HIS HOUSE. I HAVE MY OWN HOUSE.

JAY : >> OH, SO YOU GOT YOUR OWN PLACE.

PAMELA : >> NOW I GET TO START FROM SCRATCH, YEAH.

JAY : >> OH, OKAY, SO YOU START ALL OVER AGAIN.

PAMELA : >> YEAH. BUT THAT'S OKAY. IT GIVES ME SOMETHING ELSE TO DO. I'M A CREATIVE PERSON. I HAVE A LOT TO -- IT WILL BE FUN. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.

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.
