London, Europe Brief News – The Canadian-born platinum blonde Pamela Anderson will tell her own story, in both a memoir and a nearly two-hour Netflix documentary.
Anderson claims she did not work with a collaborator or ghostwriter on her upcoming memoir, which caused her to gain “like 25 pounds.”
The “Baywatch” bombshell, 55, explained Wednesday on “The Howard Stern Show” that it was not only a “massive battle” to get people to believe that she could write “Love, Pamela” without any help, but the writing process took its toll.
“It was crazy, but I had a physical reaction to telling my story,” Anderson told the shock jock, explaining that she dropped the weight once she finished writing. “It was almost like I was hanging on to something — It was a protective… my puffy suit of armor. I don’t know what it was — I was thinking it was some kind of protection.”
The former Playboy centerfold said she wondered if her body was changing because she was “just getting old,” and her mom even asked her why she never showed off her iconic figure anymore.
Anderson, 55, reportedly began working on the projects years ago, when she first learned about the Hulu series Pam & Tommy.
“I blocked that stolen tape out of my life to survive. And now that it’s coming up again, I feel sick,” she says in the documentary trailer. “I want to take control of the narrative for the first time.”
Here’s a look inside Anderson’s new book Love, Pamela (written without the help of a ghost-writer), a close-up of one of the most recognised women in the world.
