She tried to kill her babysitter
In the documentary, Anderson reveals that she tried to kill a female babysitter after being abused by her for years.
Growing up in Ladysmith, Canada, Anderson said an unnamed babysitter abused her and her brother for years.
“She always told me not to tell my parents. I was trying to protect my brother from her,” Anderson said.
She admits that she tried to kill her one day. “I tried to stab her in the heart with a candy cane pen.”
Although her attempted murder was unsuccessful, Anderson told her she wanted her to die.
“She died in a car accident the next day,” she says. “I thought I would killed her with my magic spirit, and I couldn’t tell anyone. I was sure that I did it, that I wished her dead and that she died,” Anderson continues. “I’ve lived with that all my young life.”
She says Tim Allen exposed himself to her
Anderson recalls a disturbing encounter with Home Improvement star Tim Allen in her memoir.
One of Anderson’s first roles was as Lisa the Tool Girl on the show.
“On the first day of shooting, I walked out of my dressing room and Tim was standing in the hallway in his robes,” she writes in an excerpt from her memoir “Love, Pamela,” which Variety obtained before the book comes out. “He opened his robe and quickly flashed me — totally naked underneath.”
Allen denied the incident in a statement to CNN.
“No, that never happened,” he said. “I would never do such a thing.”
Sylvester Stallone tried to buy her off the market
Early in her career, Anderson says Rocky star Sly Stallone approached her with a proposal he thought she wouldn’t refuse.
“He offered me an apartment and a Porsche to be his No. 1 girl,” Anderson says in her Netflix documentary. “And I was like, ‘Does that mean there’s number 2? Uh-uh.'”
Taken back, Stallone said she should think twice before turning him down.
“He says, ‘That’s the best offer you’ll get, honey. You’re in Hollywood now,'” Anderson says.
Stallone reps told The New York Post the incident did not happen.
“Pamela Anderson’s statement attributed to my client is false and fabricated,” said a Stallone spokesperson. “Mr. Stallone confirms he never made any of that statement.”
