Pamela Anderson didn’t mince words about how she felt about one possible close encounter at Sunday’s Golden Globes.
The 58-year-old “Naked Gun” star tells Andy Cohen on an upcoming Sirius XM interview that she left the show and “went right to bed” after presenting the award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy to Rose Byrne — admitting that she high-tailed it partially to avoid Seth Rogen, who produced and starred in “Pam And Tommy,” a 2022 miniseries about the fallout over a stolen sex tape she made in the mid-1990s with then-husband Tommy Lee.
Anderson, who had no involvement in the miniseries, previously called its existence “salt in the wound” and said Rogen still owes her “a public apology,” a notion she reiterates to Cohen in the new interview, which debuts Jan. 20.
“I just felt like, ‘Eh.’ You know? 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.’”
After Cohen asked Anderson if she ran into Rogen at the Globes, she said that she felt “weird” seeing him after he made the series.
“I may have just felt like, ’I’m not chopped liver over here,’ ” Anderson explained. “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 said the whole thing “felt like a little yucky,” but held out hopes that “eventually, hopefully he will, maybe he’ll reach out to me and apologize. Not that that matters.”
After Cohen suggested a Rogen apology might “mean something” to Anderson, she pointed out that her feelings about the whole situation remain complicated.
“Well, you are free game. When you are a public person, they say you have no right to privacy. But your darkest, deepest secrets or your tragedies in your life shouldn’t be fair game for [a] TV series. That pissed me off a little bit,” Anderson said.
Cohen then asked Anderson if she had wanted to give Rogen a “death stare” at the Globes or just “look away.”
“I mean, you’re kind of already tiptoeing around it. It’s so uncomfortable being around everybody there,” Anderson said. “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.”
So while Anderson didn’t, as she put it, “make a beeline for Rogen,” she did confront him in her mind.
“And [I] really told him how I felt. So I’m sitting there in my seat just going — you know?” Anderson explained while demonstrating her hard stare to Cohen.

Although Rogen has never apologized to Anderson for making the miniseries, Lily James, who portrayed Anderson on the show, admitted that the fallout from her performance has made her reconsider playing real people on screen.
