Four years after he made a series about her without her permission, Pamela Anderson wants an apology from Seth Rogen.
The Golden Globe nominee said she left the 83rd annual awards show after she “felt a little yucky” being in Rogen’s presence after his 2022 Hulu limited series Pam & Tommy fictionalized the events around her 1995 sex tape with ex-husband Tommy Lee.
“At the Golden Globes, for instance, I didn’t leave early. I left after my award, and I went right to bed,” she said on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy.
“Seth Rogen, he did that [miniseries] on me without talking to me, Pam & Tommy,” added Anderson. “How can someone make a TV series out of difficult times in your life? And I’m a living, breathing human being over here, hello.”
Based on the 2014 Rolling Stone article ‘Pam and Tommy: The Untold Story of the World’s Most Infamous Sex Tape’, the Hulu miniseries starred Lily James as Anderson and Sebastian Stan as Lee. Rogen served as an executive producer and played Rand Gauthier, the man whole stole and sold their home video as a sex tape.

“He was in the pit at the Golden Globes, so we were close,” she said. “I just felt like, ‘I’m not chopped liver over here.’ I felt a little bit weird about it.”
Anderson explained, “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 kinda down. It just felt a little yucky. Eventually, hopefully he will reach out to me and apologize. Not that that matters.”
The Baywatch alum said of the series that the “darkest, deepest secrets or your tragedies in life shouldn’t be fair game for a TV series. That pissed me off a little bit.”
At Sunday’s Golden Globes, Rogen’s Apple TV+ series The Studio earned him Best Actor in a Television Series — Musical or Comedy and Best Television Series — Musical or Comedy.
