Why Pamela Anderson Called Golden Globes Seat Near Seth Rogen ‘Yucky’

Pamela Anderson isn’t letting “Pam & Tommy” go, and she’s making it clear she has lingering resentment toward Seth Rogen over his involvement in the controversial project. According to a new report, Anderson says she thinks Rogen’s participation in the Hulu show wasn’t cool and believes he owes her an apology. The actress opened up about her feelings during an interview with Andy Cohen on SiriusXM, where she admitted she felt “yucky” sitting near Rogen at the Golden Globes. Rogen served as an executive producer on “Pam & Tommy,” the series centered around the leak of Anderson’s sex tape with ex-husband Tommy Lee. Seth Rogen also appeared in the project, and the topic remains a sore spot for Pamela Anderson years after the show’s release.

Anderson told Cohen she’s still upset about the series, and said she felt like “chopped liver” while sitting near Rogen at the Golden Globes, where he ultimately won Best Actor – Television Series Musical or Comedy for “The Studio.” While Anderson didn’t confront him in person, she made it clear the frustration was still very much present.

“Seth Rogen, he did that [series] without talking to me, you know ‘Pam & Tommy,’ and that was another… I just felt like, ‘Eh.’ You know?” she recalled, per PEOPLE. “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.’”

Anderson said she hopes Rogen will one day apologize to her over the series, explaining that no one should be forced to see the worst period of their life recreated for the screen without their consent, though she also questioned how much an apology would truly change for her.

“I may have just felt like, ’I’m not chopped liver over here,’” Anderson shared. “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.”

“I don’t know. It just felt like a little yucky. But eventually, hopefully he will, maybe he’ll reach out to me and apologize. Not that that matters,” she added.

Still, she admitted the confrontation played out in her mind even if it never happened in real life. Anderson says she didn’t storm over to Rogen to give him a piece of her mind, but she imagined she did in her head.

Cohen suggested that an apology from Rogen could actually “mean something” to her, but the Golden Globes winner said she still had complicated feelings about the situation.

“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 p-ssed me off a little bit,” Anderson explained.

Anderson’s frustration traces back to one of the most invasive chapters of her life, the leak of her private sex tape with then-husband Tommy Lee. The footage was recorded during their relationship and was never intended for the public, but it was ultimately stolen and distributed without their permission.

Once it spread, the tape became a massive media spectacle, turning their personal lives into tabloid fuel. The fallout followed her for years, shaping how the public talked about her, her career, and her marriage, which is why she has repeatedly criticized any recreation of that period on screen without her consent.
