Pamela Anderson Reportedly 'Hates' When People Talk About Her Sex Tape As Singer Lorde Shows 'Creepy' Interest In It
Pamela Anderson is choosing not to pay attention to Lorde's continuous mention of her sex tape, but would reportedly love for the whole thing to stop. The Grammy-winning singer admitted that she watched Anderson's sex tape with her ex-husband Tommy Lee, and went on to reference the steamy encounter in her new song. However, Anderson seemingly handed the singer the "ultimate insult" as she is unaware of who Lorde is in the first place. Pamela Anderson recently opened up about the "wild ride" she experienced after posing for Playboy Magazine for the first time during what she calls "the blurry years." Singer Lorde seems to be fascinated with Pamela Anderson's sex life, so much so that she dug up the "Baywatch" alum's leaked sex tape with ex-husband Tommy Lee. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the "Royals" hitmaker, whose real name is Ella Yelich-O'Connor, disclosed that she watched Anderson and Lee's leaked 1995 sex tape after a psychedelic therapy session, describing it as "beautiful" and filled with "purity." "I found it to be so beautiful," Lorde admitted. "And maybe it's f-cked up that I watched it, but I saw two people that were so in love with each other, and there was this purity." "They were jumping off this big boat.… They were like children. They were so free. And I just was like, 'Whoa. Being this free comes with danger,'" she added. As if that wasn't enough, Lorde referenced the sex tape on her new song "Current Affairs" from her newly released album "Virgin," when she sings: "All alone in my room / Watching the tape of their honeymoon / On the boat, it was pure and true / Then the film came out." The singer has faced fiery backlash online, with some netizens calling her comments insensitive and tone-deaf. Meanwhile, Anderson has chosen to be the bigger person and ignore Lorde's remarks, but she wouldn't want it to continue. The 58-year-old pop star has been open about how she suffered deep humiliation and pain from the unauthorized release of the tape and would prefer that it never be mentioned again. An insider who spoke to the Daily Mail said that Anderson "hates when the sex tape creeps back into pop culture, whether it was the 'Pam and Tommy' show, or whenever people start talking about it or when she has had to talk about it." However, with Lorde's "creepy" fascination and continuous mention of the clip, one would expect the actress to be seething with rage, but that's not the case, as Anderson "doesn't know" Lorde. Revealing how Anderson really feels about the references, the source explained that the video "changed her life forever and a lot of bad came from it that she doesn't like remembering or thinking about." "She's not mad at Lorde, because she doesn't know who she is, but she would rather not have this out there," the source shared. "It is just a headache to deal with when she just wants to live her life." The insider continued, "It is painful that she always has to relive that moment in her life." Anderson and Lee got married in 1995 before separating in 1998 and welcomed two sons, Brandon Thomas Lee and Dylan Jagger Lee. The pair recorded a sex tape and kept it safe, but it was later stolen by Rand Gauthier, an electrician who worked on their house. According to the Daily Mail, Lee refused to pay Gauthier for a job he did, leading him to steal a massive safe from their garage, which included the sex tape. It was later obtained by Seth Warshavsky, who tried to broker a distribution agreement with Anderson and Lee. Sales of the video are said to have generated hundreds of millions of dollars, but Anderson and Lee reportedly didn't receive any of the proceeds. In a judgment against Warshavsky, a judge ruled that each of them was to be awarded $740,000, but he reportedly never paid either star. Anderson has managed to overhaul her career and remains very much active in Hollywood, starring in a number of new films. She received rave reviews after taking on a more serious role in "The Last Showgirl" and would soon appear in the upcoming thriller "Naked Gun," where she stars alongside Liam Neeson. "She has been on a recent high in her career and has steered clear from her past and is looking to age gracefully, do more important work, more fun work, and show off her talent," the source told the news outlet. Part of Anderson's rebranding has been her decision to go makeup-free. The actress is now known for her toned-down glamour while walking red carpets. According to the insider, Anderson wants people to focus on her current accomplishments and forget about "Baywatch and her sex tape past." In an interview with Harper's Bazaar U.K., she opened up about the "wild ride" she experienced after shooting to fame posing for Playboy Magazine during what she called "the blurry years." "I went straight to the Playboy Mansion, I met all these people, and then, you know, life just kept going," Anderson said. "I call them the blurry years. I just went on this crazy, wild ride that I had no control over."

Liv Morgan Joins Cast Of Takashi Miike's Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo
Liv Morgan's mysterious movie role has been revealed. According to a new report from Deadline, she is set to star in legendary horror filmmaker Takashi Miike's next movie. Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo, will see Morgan — a noted horror fan — star alongside Shun Oguri (Godzilla v. Kong) and Lily James (Pam and Tommy). The film is written by Daisuke Tengan, who worked with Miike before, and wrote both Audition and 13 Assassins. The movie will be based on the 1992 neo-noir crime film Bad Lieutenant, which was directed by Abel Ferrara. That film starred Harvey Keitel, Victor Argo, and Paul Calderón. The film follows the story of a corrupt officer trying to pay off gambling debts by catching a pair of criminals. A 2009 film starring Nicolas Cage, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, shares the name of the IP.

Morgan will play the role of a politician's daughter who has gone missing.

Fleeing Romania to being an Oscar nominee: Why Sebastian Stan is truly a star
Sebastian Stan's journey to Hollywood isn't your typical success story. He didn't grow up in Los Angeles or come from a family in the business. Instead, his story starts in Romania – under a strict government, in a country still dealing with the impact of Communism. From there, he made his way to the United States, built a career on taking risks, and became one of the unique and respected actors in the early life was filled with uncertainty. His father, Constantin Stan, worked on cargo ships and secretly helped people escape from Romania, where the government kept a tight grip on its citizens. 'He was a bit of a hero in my town,' Sebastian told Vanity Fair in a recent interview. 'My parents were part of the youth that were standing up to Communism. My father was helping people escape the country illegally, to the point where he was a wanted man. And he himself had to flee.'Eventually, his father disappeared completely, going into exile in the United States. Sebastian stayed behind with his mother, Georgeta Orlovschi, a pianist. She first fled to Vienna to get settled, then brought Sebastian to join her. Not long after, they moved to the US to start over. advertisement View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sebastian Stan (@imsebastianstan) Even after all these years, Romania is still a big part of who Sebastian is. Growing up under a harsh government taught him to be aware of power and how it can be misused – something he still thinks about today in his life in America. He also understands the immigrant experience in a personal way. 'I have always made the argument that immigrants, to some extent, are more patriotic than even the people that are born here because they don't take things for granted,' he said in his Vanity Fair acting career didn't take off right away. He didn't fit the usual Hollywood image, but that worked in his favour. He started taking on roles that were a little different – more complex, darker, and sometimes even a bit strange. From Bucky Barnes in the 'Captain America' films, to his performances in 'I, Tonya', 'Pam and Tommy', and 'Fresh', he's always chosen characters that are interesting and 2024, he gave the people two big films – 'A Different Man' and 'The Apprentice'. For the first film, he received a Golden Globe for Best Actor. For the second one, he became an Oscar-nominated actor. After years of hard work and quietly building an impressive career, Sebastian is finally getting the attention he deserves. In 2025, he was honoured at the Golden Globes, a moment that felt long overdue for fans and critics a long time, Sebastian Stan was best known as Bucky Barnes – the Winter Soldier – in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). His work across the 'Captain America' films and beyond earned him a loyal fan base, but let's be honest: most of the spotlight was on Chris Evans as Captain America. And fair enough – Evans nailed that role and became the face of a that often meant Stan didn't get quite the credit he deserved. His version of Bucky was intense, emotional, and complex – a man struggling with trauma, guilt, and identity. It wasn't just a supporting role; it was a masterclass in subtle, layered acting. And outside of Marvel? Stan's really shown what he's capable of. He's taken on a wide range of roles, proving he's not just a superhero sidekick but a seriously talented lead. In 'I, Tonya', he transformed into Jeff Gillooly with both awkwardness and edge. In 'Pam and Tommy', he completely disappeared into the role of Tommy Lee. Then there's the twisted charm of 'Fresh', the creepy intensity of 'The Devil All the Time', and the quiet mystery of 'We Have Always Lived in the Castle'.advertisementHe's also not afraid to take risks. Whether he's playing a real-life figure like Donald Trump in 'The Apprentice', or diving into dark, psychologically challenging roles, Stan always brings a level of depth and commitment that makes you sit up and pay Stan didn't follow the traditional path to stardom. He carved out his own path, breaking through cultural and industry expectations along the way. His story is a powerful reminder that where you start doesn't have to define where you end up - and that being different can be your biggest strength.
