During their honeymoon at Lake Mead, Arizona, Anderson and Tommy Lee, 60, recorded a s*x tape. It was subsequently stolen and leaked to the public.
During their interview on Sunday, host Jim Axelrod asked the actress about what she wants people to “understand” about the infamous tape, then she said,
“That it was stolen property, that it was two crazy naked people in love.”
“I mean, we were naked all the time, filming each other and being silly, but those tapes were not meant for anybody else to see. And I’ve not seen it to this day. It was very hurtful”

Pamela Anderson To Launch Her Memoir And Documentary On Netflix
The actress Pamela Anderson declares in the official trailer of her upcoming documentary Pamela, a love story that she wants to take control of the narrative for the first time as she seems prepared to face her 1995’s traumatic experience’s bad lights. This includes the discussion surrounding her s*x tape with her ex-husband Tommy Lee, as documented on Hulu, titled Pam and Tommy, however, she hasn’t watched it yet, or maybe not in her life.
Anderson told PEOPLE that her two sons Brandon, 26, and Dylan, 25, encouraged her to tell her story to the world now.
The actress said writing her memoir Love, Pamela,
“[There’s] a little bit of anxiety before it comes out because this has been a year of therapy, going through my life from my first to my last memory. I’m really proud of it. It is something I wrote every word of. I didn’t have a collaborator. I didn’t have any ghost writer, nothing.”
She added,
“It’s just one girl’s story of how I made it through: a small-town girl going to Los Angeles and just going through all the wild and crazy adventures I did and then circling back and going home.”
Anderson said,
“I had no idea how much anger I had inside, or how therapeutic it was going to be for not just me, but for people around me, like my mother. It’s been a healing process. I’m so happy to share it, and hopefully, people will be inspired.”
She added,
“I think a lot of it has to do with keeping secrets and keeping things kind of [repressed]. In my case, there’s been stories written and things happening, but you can’t really know somebody unless you hear the whole story. … I hope it’s empowering.”
She concluded,
“I just wanted there to be a true, authentic, real record of my life. I really felt like it was very, very important for me to write it all down, from beginning to end.”
In the end, she expressed her gratitude to her sons, who encouraged her to do what was imperative for her life, and her sons were also impressed with their mother’s honesty and how she presented it in her memoir and documentary.
Pamela Anderson’s memoir Love, Pamela and Netflix documentary Pamela, a love story will come out on January 31.
