Pamela Anderson had a disappointing time at the Golden Globe Awards. She says that sitting near Seth Rogen was awkward for her. And it is understandble why. The beloved comedian helped produce Pam & Tommy a couple of years ago, and those wounds have not healed.

Anderson attended the ceremony to present the award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. But, she also told Andy Cohen about how awkward she felt being close to someone who, in her eyes, never made amends for putting her story out there again.

“Seth Rogen, he did that [series] without talking to me, you know Pam & Tommy, and that was another — I just felt like, ‘Eh.’ You know?” Anderson told the host. “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.’ ”

“I may have just felt like, ’I’m not chopped liver over here,’ ” Anderson shared. “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.”

Anderson has been super vulnerable talking about how the series made her feel. Back in 2023, she told Entertainment Tonight that there was no desire to watch the Hulu series. The Baywatch star said, “I never watched the tape, I’m never going to watch this.” All of this is frankly very relatable. Anderson had the worst moment of her life put out into the ether and then has to relive it all over again anytime someone boots up Hulu. It’s a lot to handle. But, thankfully, her kids have been helping her through it. 

Our girl is booked and busy these days. She’s made 5 movies in recent months, so there are things that keep all this drama off her mind. But, even for a mega-star like Anderson, it doesn’t take much for your mind to wander.But, the actress is quite aware that her problems aren’t the biggest in the grand scheme. Anderson mused, “I mean there’s worse things going on in the world.” She would expand on how the dynamic changes for her being in a room full of contemporaries.

“I mean you’re kind of already tip-toeing around it. It’s so uncomfortable being around everybody there,” Anderson recalled. “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.”
