Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson reveal their first impressions of each other after admitting to new romance
Pamela Anderson and Lim Neeson opened up about the sweet beginnings of their new relationship at a SiriusXM Town Hall in New York City on Wednesday. The 58-year-old Baywatch star and the 73-year-old Academy Award nominee affectionately held hands during the chat as they shared their first impressions of each other while joined by other stars of their new comedy The Naked Gun, Danny Huston and Liza Koshy. The two had stirred up rumors of a romance recently after sharing an unexpected amount of PDA on red carpets to promote The Naked Gun — which hits theaters on Friday, August 1 — and a source confirmed to the Daily Mail on Tuesday that they have been dating 'for a while.' During the broadcast on SiriusXM's Radio Andy with host Andy Cohen, Neeson recalled being instantly charmed by his costar when they started work on the film, which is a sequel and reboot to the Leslie Nielsen-starring series of police-procedural spoofs. 'Well, you know, we had never met before and I remember thinking, "Wow, she is gorgeous," but she had this wonderful sense of silliness and just humanity about her,' Neeson said. 'I don't want to blow her head up, but it was like I just felt an ease with her, you know, and we discovered a silliness with each other, which was terrific, you know?' Anderson admitted that she was 'nervous to meet [Neeson], of course and you're always nervous the first day on the set.' The two had stirred up rumors of a romance recently after sharing an unexpected amount of PDA on red carpets to promote The Naked Gun, and a source confirmed to the Daily Mail on Tuesday that they have been dating 'for a while' However, she described the film shoot and 'just easy going and very silly, which puts you at ease and very silly, on and off.' In a clip from the Town Hall, Anderson and Neeson described how they bonded over her baking on set. The Barb Wire beauty revealed to Cohen that she tends to keep to herself in her free time and focuses on her writing — including poetry and journaling — as well as working in her garden and baking sourdough bread, which became a staple on the film set. Neeson interjected to praise the sourdough as 'phenomenal.' 'I brought sourdough bread to Liam and cookies and muffins and kept me busy. Kept me outta trouble,' Anderson shared. She spoke about a 'very special recipe' for muffins that Neeson became a fan of, but Cohen couldn't tell if she was being serious or was trying to slip in a naught double entendre. 'It's a very special recipe. It's very good for you. Let's just say that,' Anderson added with a smile. 'A lot of bran,' Neeson added, grinning, while Anderson said the muffins were also made with molasses. 'Wow. What are we talking about?' the confused host said to laughter from the audience. On Tuesday, a source revealed to the Daily Mail that Anderson and Neeson first felt 'sparks' flying when they shot the movie in May 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia. The May/December lovebirds — Pamela is 58 and Liam is 73 — have been kissing on the red carpet while promoting the high-profile comedy in New York City and London. 'Pam is very drawn to Liam because he is totally open to her way of thinking and living, and especially her approach to fame, which is impressive,' the source told Daily Mail. 'She has been telling friends he is smitten and does a lot of sweet things for her, like sending her flowers, and spending time with her sons and dogs.' The insider has noted they've managed to keep the long-distance romance private by spending time at her house in Canada. 'Pam cooks and gardens at home... it's wholesome and appealing and very un-Hollywood and Liam loves that,' said the insider. 'He actually gets involved.' Daily Mail has reached out to Anderson's and Neeson's representatives for comment. On Tuesday, a source told Daily Mail that Anderson and Neeson are dating. The two have been in a romance 'for a while,' and they started having 'sparks' when they began filming their Naked Gun movie in May 2024; seen on July 28 in NYC On Monday evening at their New York premiere, Anderson suggested they were an item when she went in for a kiss on Neeson's lips before she pulled back during their joint ET interview. And they both talked to Extra, Pamela said of building their relationship, 'We just like each other.' Liam added, 'It just grew naturally. We didn't force it, just allowed it to grow.' She also wrote on Instagram, 'Love is in the air.' The full post read: 'A beautiful evening at the NYC Naked Gun premiere… thank you to everyone who came out to laugh with us… love is in the air.' Eyebrows were raised in October 2024 when Neeson said he loved the former Playboy model. He told People: 'With Pamela, first off, I'm madly in love with her. She's just terrific to work with. I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She's funny and so easy to work with.' Anderson said that Neeson is 'the perfect gentleman' and he 'brings out the best in you … with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolute honor to work with him.' And she told EW: 'We definitely have a connection that is very sincere, very loving. He's a good guy.' This comes after Neeson has joked his favorite part of The Naked Gun was filming 'the sex scenes' with Anderson. The actor stars as Frank Drebin Jr. opposite Anderson as nightclub singer Beth in the upcoming comedy reboot, and Neeson has now teased he particularly enjoyed shooting their love scenes, which were made with the help of an intimacy coordinator. The Sun newspaper reports Liam joked the best bit of the shoot was 'the sex scenes', and he added of the intimacy coordinator: 'I'd never had one before. But she was in the background. There was no kind of: "Ok! Excuse me!"' The publication went on to report Liam claimed the intimacy coordinator threw her hands in the air and exclaimed: 'I can't take this! This is too hot for me. I'm going for coffee.' In The Naked Gun — which is a new take on the original Leslie Nielsen 1988 comedy movie — Detective Frank Drebin Jr. (Neeson) takes on his first big case, determined to solve a high-profile murder and save the police department from closure. Following in his father's hilariously clumsy footsteps, he stumbles through outrageous situations while trying to solve the mystery. Neeson recently said he didn't want to 'emulate' Nielsen in the new film, which was directed by Akiva Schaffer and hits screens on August 1. He told Empire magazine: 'I wouldn't say nerve-wracking, but every day I would go up to Akiva after we wrapped and say, 'How was it?' Because I just didn't know. 'I did not want to emulate the wonderful Leslie Nielsen, but the only thing I grabbed from him, was, 'Be serious. Don't try to be funny. Just stick to being a serious cop who is a bit of a doofus.' The Taken actor also admitted he wasn't sure if he was funny enough for The Naked Gun, which also stars Paul Walter Hauser and Danny Huston. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Neeson said: 'During the whole shoot — I'm being very honest — I still did not know, when we wrapped at the end of each working day, whether it was working for me. 'Pamela, Paul, Danny, everybody else, I thought, were very funny. I just couldn't put a verdict on myself, on my own performance.

I'm freaking out – I just found out my girlfriend is on OnlyFans
Dear Vix, I'm freaking out – because I just found out my girlfriend is on OnlyFans. One of my mates found her account and told me about it in the pub. I've never felt so embarrassed. He didn't say he'd seen anything particularly sordid – apparently it's all quite tame – but that's not the point. The point is that she's on there at all! We haven't been together very long – just a couple of months – but I can't believe she didn't confess to being on there. What happened to honesty? I've told her that her being on OnlyFans i s breaking my boundaries – that I have every right to demand she comes off it, or I'll leave her. I can't handle her being on there. Let's face it – nobody wants their partner selling themselves online. It only cheapens anything we do together in private. And what would my friends and family say if they found out? Shocked and Disgusted Dear Shocked and Disgusted, I'm going to be quite blunt, here. While I empathise with your pain and shock – and there's a betrayal element here, too, because she didn't tell you herself (though I would ask whether she has to tell you after just a few months) – I really don't think it's your choice as to whether or not she decides to quit OnlyFans. And I'm going to add a moniker to your sign-off that I don't think you'll like: Shocked, Disgusted – and Shaming. Your language about your girlfriend comes across as very shaming, to me (particularly the word 'confess'). Did you know that according to experts, the number one killer in a relationship is contempt? I sense a lot of contempt coming from you – and a lot of judgement. Your partner is an independent woman who has every right to decide what she does with her body – and how she makes her money. Plenty of high-profile women have spoken out, recently, to share their decisions to use the platform as a way to keep control over their finances. Many women, celebrities or not, have talked openly about the fact that they've spent most of their lives feeling like commodities for men – their bodies so often looked at, dissected and touched – without permission – that they resort to thinking, 'f*** it – I'll do it myself'. And I understand that. Don't you? Last year, Lily Allen joined OnlyFans to share pictures of her feet, captioning her profile with the phrase: 'Just dipping my toes in'. She's said it earns her more than having her music on Spotify. Kate Nash also joined the platform to sell pictures of her bum, saying her decision to join OnlyFans was about 'agency' and to raise awareness of the dire situation many artists face: rising costs of travel, accommodation, food, promotion and crew. And while you're entitled to feel your feelings about your girlfriend, you aren't entitled to demand she leave the platform just because you don't like it. If it's a dealbreaker for you, then you might have to walk away. While we're on the subject of 'dealbreakers', I just want to point out something I've noticed for a while: the number of people who tell their partners what they want them to do (or not do) – and wrongly call it 'boundaries'. It's not a 'boundary' for your girlfriend to quit OnlyFans. Boundaries are for you. They're not for other people. You can't place a dealbreaker on someone else and call it a 'boundary' – because it's not a boundary, it's a rule. And you can't control other people – you can only control your responses to other people. As for what your friends and family would say – well, aren't you an adult? Do you always listen to the opinions of others? Do their prejudices dictate how you live your life? If I was your girlfriend, I would want to hear how you feel about this – and I would seek to reassure you – but I wouldn't be very cool with your condemnation. Or your judgement, or your family's judgement. It would probably make me want to run a mile, to be honest. What I would advise is that you think hard about why it bothers you so much. It's okay that it bothers you, but only you can work out how much – and really unpick why. What does it tell you about your opinions of women? And do you think you can stay in the relationship, if she decides she wants to stay on the platform? But you can't work out any of this until you talk about it with her. So I'd start there.

The next Oppenheimer? Christopher Nolan's new film is selling out already
F or decades Christopher Nolan has had Hollywood at his beck and call. A twisted Batman? The dream thriller Inception? Matthew McConaughey going Interstellar? Huge budgets have reaped huge rewards, with Nolan's most recent film, Oppenheimer, his most singular to date. Who else could craft a three-hour time warp about physics and turn it into a bombastic triumph, nabbing seven Oscars and almost $1 billion? Nolan is an anomaly, a licence for studio execs to put that deposit on a beach house. So one can only imagine their shock when Nolan said that he wanted to follow Oppenheimer with an adaptation of The Odyssey, and that he needed an estimated $250 million. A poem from the 7th century BC, panicked suits must have cried: who's going to be interested in that?
