Pamela Anderson Reveals Why She ‘Has No Intention’ Of Watching Her Netflix Documentary
Pamela Anderson is giving fans an up close and personal look at her life and career in her new Netflix documentary dropping on Jan. 31.
Pamela Anderson is ready to share her full story with fans in her intimate new documentary Pamela, A Love Story — but she won’t be watching it herself. “The documentary I haven’t seen – and have no intention of seeing,” she confirmed in an interview to Vanity Fair. The film includes content from her own personal archives, including plenty of never before seen videos and photos from her past romances, work projects like Baywatch and her Broadway Chicago run, as well as children Brandon, 26, and Dylan, 24.
“I gave full access to my archives and diaries, and hope that it makes sense to somebody,” she also told the Conde Nast publication. “I hope that my story inspires people to have a great f***ing time and not worry so much,” she added pointedly.
The documentary, directed by Mike White, was confirmed last March via Instagram shortly after Hulu’s Pam & Tommy streamed. In a letter, the British Columbia native described herself as “not a victim, but a survivor, alive to tell the real story.” Beyond the film, the animal activist and philanthropist will also release a memoir called Love, Pamela.

![EXCLUSIVE: Pamela Anderson is spotted enjoying a sun-soaked St Barths vacation with a handsome mystery man. The 55-year-old former Baywatch star, who recently released her memoir 'Love, Pamela', was seen leaving the Caribbean island's famous Nikki Beach restaurant with her younger son Dylan Lee, 25. Her tall, dark lunch companion looked ultra cool and casual in sunglasses with a tropical print open necked shirt, sporting a stubble and longer hairdo. Pamela looked chic in a white slip dress, wearing her famous blonde locks loose over her shoulders. It is not known if the two are linked romantically but they have been holed up together in an ultra-exclusive, secluded villa for over a week. A new Netflix documentary covers Anderson's colorful love life, from her marriage to Tommy Lee, to her on/off romance with surfer Kelly Slater, and her most recent divorce from bodyguard Dan Hayhurst last year. She has walked down the aisle five times. The new documentary lets fans into her life from her humble beginnings to her rise to fame and the infamous sex tape with then-husband Tommy Lee, which was stolen from their home. In February 1995, Anderson and Mötley Crüe drummer Lee eloped after just 96 hours of knowing one another. They welcomed their first child Brandon in June 1996, and a year later in December 1997, their second son Dylan was born. The pair eventually split in 1998, after the musician was arrested and sentenced to six months in jail for spousal battery after assaulting his wife. 03 Apr 2023 Pictured: Pamela Anderson.

The Hulu series specifically focused on her relationship with ex-husband Tommy Lee and the events surrounding the theft, sale and eventual publication of her private sex videos with the Mötley Crüe drummer. Pamela was not involved in the series which starred Lily James and Sebastian Stan as the iconic ’90s couple, and the producers were able to obtain rights to the story by optioning a Rolling Stone article from 2004 about the sale of the sex tape by Rand Gauthier (played by Seth Rogen in Hulu’s series).
Pamela will finally share her thoughts on the show in the documentary, which will also delve into her marriage and split from fellow Canadian Dan Hayhurst through COVID-19. Prior to that marriage, she also walked down the aisle in a non-legal ceremony with Jon Peters, only to split 12 days later.
