Why Pamela Anderson 'felt yucky' being near Seth Rogen at the Golden Globes
Pamela Anderson wasn’t keen on rubbing elbows with Seth Rogen at the Golden Globes this past Sunday.
Anderson told Andy Cohen on his Sirius XM radio show that she left the ceremony after presenting the Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy to Rose Byrne and “went right to bed,” especially after seeing Rogen in the audience.
Her issue with Rogen stems from the Hulu series “Pam & Tommy,” which he produced and starred in a few years ago. Rogen played the man who stole her sex tape with her ex, Tommy Lee, and helped distribute it to the public.
“Like how can someone make a TV series out of the difficult times in your life, and I’m a living, breathing human being over here. Hello,” Anderson told Cohen.
Cohen asked Anderson if she ran into Rogen at the awards show, and she responded, “He was in the pit at the Golden Globes, so we were close.”
She added she felt “weird” about seeing Rogen after the release of the series.
“I may have just felt like, ‘I’m not chopped liver over here,’” Anderson said. “I felt a little bit weird about it. And I felt like you know — I’ve been so busy working. I’ve done five movies in the last year. So, I’ve just been busy but sometimes it hits you and you feel kind of down.”
She added, “I don’t know. It just felt like a little yucky. But eventually, hopefully he will, maybe he’ll reach out to me and apologize. Not that that matters.”
Anderson noted that even if she received an apology, she would still have complicated feelings about the series anyway.
She acknowledged, “Well, you are free game. When you are a public person they say you have no right to privacy,” adding, “But your darkest, deepest secrets or your tragedies in your life shouldn’t be fair game for [a] TV series. That p---ed me off a little bit.”
For Anderson, the series depicted “the worst time in my life.”
Cohen asked if she had wanted to stare Rogen down or look away and ignore him.
She replied, “I mean you’re kind of already tip-toeing around it. It’s so uncomfortable being around everybody there. I mean a lot of those people [are] even from Malibu days, so I still don’t feel like I belong in those rooms. I feel like, you know, uncomfortable.”
Anderson said she didn’t make a “beeline for him” but “in my mind, I did. And really told him how I felt,” adding she essentially did kind of stare him down.
But as frustrated as the “Naked Gun” star is with the situation, she insists “everything’s good” and added, “I mean there’s worse things going on in the world.”
