Pamela Anderson: 'Yes, Sylvester Stallone tried to seduce me with a Porsche'

Pamela Anderson has hit back at Sylvester Stallone for denying her claim that he once tried to woo her and make her his 'No. 1 girl' by offering to buy her a condo and a Porsche.
Anderson stuck to her story about Stallone while appearing on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen Sunday.
Seated next to her new boyfriend, Liam Neeson, her co-star in the cop-drama spoof The Naked Gun , Anderson played along with Cohen's game in which the host asked her to respond to media reports about her.
Cohen explained that Anderson, 58, revealed Stallone's offer in her 2023 Netflix documentary, Pamela, A Love Story .
As Anderson nodded, Cohen then said Stallone, 79, allegedly asked the former Baywatch star to be his 'No. 1 girl' in exchange for buying her a condo and a luxury sports car.
In her documentary, Anderson also had said she rejected Stallone's offer by quipping: 'Does that mean there's a No. 2 girl?' Stallone allegedly replied to her rejection by saying: 'That's the best offer you're gonna get, honey. You're in Hollywood now.'
Cohen then asked Anderson: 'What was your reaction to Stallone coming out after the doc was released and saying this was a falsehood?'
Anderson laughed, shook her head, rolled her eyes said, 'Well, how could you make that up? You know?'
'Right!' Cohen replied, as Anderson looked to Neeson, then laughed again and said, 'That was pretty specific.'
Cohen then asked Anderson whether there was a 'different car' that might have changed her mind about dating the Rocky legend.
'Maybe, like, a Shelby Cobra,' Anderson joked, before repeating 'no' several times.
Neeson, meanwhile, laughed along before admitting to Cohen that he was yet to offer his new girlfriend a car.
And while Anderson said she turned down action-star Stallone's affair offer, it was reported last week that she and Neeson, a late-career action star with the Taken movies, are dating.
Indeed, their affection for each other was pretty evident on Cohen's show as the Irish actor reached out to touch Anderson's shoulder, and she sweetly patted his hand.
A source told Us Weekly that Anderson and Neeson 'always had chemistry while they were filming The Naked Gun , and their friendship naturally developed into more.'
This source also said the new couple are 'learning how to navigate (a romance) together' as they continue their whirlwind publicity tour for The Naked Gun , a reboot of the hit comedy franchise from the late 1980s and early 1990s.
'They are both shy and have tried to stay private, but the spark between them is obvious,' the source added.

Meanwhile, Stallone's representative was adamant in denying Anderson's claims that he tried to buy her love and attention.
'The statement from Pamela Anderson attributed to my client is false and fabricated,' the rep said in a statement in 2023. 'Mr Stallone confirms that he never made any portion of that statement.' – Mercury News/Tribune News Service

Brandi Glanville suffers facial burns after experiment goes awry

Brandi Glanville shared what happened on TikTok on Aug 2, that is a little startling and also a little painful-looking. Photo: TNS An experiment intended to rid The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills alum Brandi Glanville of a facial parasite left the former reality TV star with chemical burns. In a short video posted to TikTok on Aug 2 that is a little startling and also a little painful-looking, Glanville, 52, said that she decided to use Nair to try to eradicate the parasite. However, the popular hair removal product aggravated her skin, leaving her with apparent chemical burns. "I know I look attractive," she joked. "Good news, you don't have to spend a lot of money on peels and lasers anymore." During the clip, she referred to the parasite as "Caroline," a possible reference to her Real Housewives rival Caroline Manzo. In January 2023, Manzo accused Glanville of sexual assault during filming. This led to both of them departing the Morocco set of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip . That was also where Glanville previously said she might have contracted the parasite. Glanville has denied all claims Manzo has made against her, calling them absurd, Page Six reports. In her TikTok video, Glanville claims the Nair successfully moved the parasite ("Caroline") to a different part of her face upon application. "Nair is the fountain of youth, I figured it out," she said. "But I overdid it … seven minutes, don't do it." The first time Glanville shared information regarding the parasite, she claimed that she had consulted "every doctor under the sun" but to no avail. The mysterious condition was said to have left her with frequent facial swelling and missing teeth. She told ET in December 2024 that she'd suspected a parasite had made its way into her system after the filming in Morocco. "We had food sitting out for hours on end, and some of it was meat," she said, adding that medical complications began six months later. Glanville claimed that she had since spent more than US$70,000 (RM296,099.50) on noninvasive procedures to pinpoint exactly what was going on. Notably, she was on IV antibiotics that alleviated swelling but proved to be too expensive. "I've been on meds this whole year. I don't socialise. I don't go out," she said at the time. – Los Angeles Times/Tribune News Service

Rapper Lil Tay says she earned over US$1mil on OnlyFans within hours of joining

The Internet personality claims that her OnlyFans content was captured at 12:01am on her birthday on July 29. Photo: Lil Tay/Instagram Rapper Lil Tay, the subject of a 2023 death hoax, is alive and well and allegedly raking in the big bucks on OnlyFans. The 18-year-old social media sensation claimed that her recently launched account on the often NSFW subscription-based platform has made her over US$1mil (RM4.22mil) just three hours after going live. 'We broke the f–k out of that onlyfans record,' she wrote in her caption of a screenshot of her income statement on Sunday (Aug 3). The breakdown was US$486,558 (RM2.05mil) from messages, $511,003 (RM2.16mil) from subscriptions and US$26,736 (RM113,050.85) in tips. The Internet personality – who has said her legal name is Tay Tian – claimed that her OnlyFans content was captured at 12:01am on her birthday on July 29. In another clip, Lil Tay hit back at those criticising her for cashing in on the adult entertainment site. 'You can hate on me all you want,' she said. 'You can't say Lil Tay ain't winning,' the Sucker 4 Green (Money) star continued. 'So, for everybody out there, do whatever the hell you want with your life. Who gives a f–k what people have to say? Remember this, Lil Tay rich and finna get richer.' A week before becoming a legal adult, Lil Tay teased the idea of joining OnlyFans. 'Every male has been counting down to it and literally telling me to 'drop the link' the second I turn 18,' she said in a July 22 Instagram video. 'Girlies, what do you think? Should I do it?' Now boasting 5.7 million followers on Instagram, Lil Tay went viral in 2018 for her profanity-laced raps about her lavish lifestyle on the track Money Way . In 2023, a statement posted to her Instagram account falsely claimed she and older brother Jason Tian had died. The following day, she came forward to say that she was alive and 'completely heartbroken' over the hoax. – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service

Actor Ross Butler on filming in Malaysia and Asian representation in Hollywood

When American actor Ross Butler dropped out of college at 20 – just a year into his chemical engineering degree – and moved from Virginia, the United States, to Los Angeles, acting wasn't part of the plan. At the time, he was simply looking for a change, feeling stuck about the direction his life was taking. 'I quickly learned that chemical engineering wasn't something I was passionate about. 'While I loved chemistry and science in general, I couldn't see myself pursuing a career in the field in the long run,' Butler, 35, told StarLifestyle in an exclusive interview in Kuala Lumpur. He was in town to promote his upcoming romantic comedy, Worth The Wait , which was filmed partially in Malaysia. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ross Butler (@rossbutler) Butler's decision to drop out didn't sit well with his mother, who had envisioned a more academic future for him. The fallout was so severe that the two stopped talking to each other for several years. 'I don't blame her because when you're a 20-year-old without any clear trajectory or solid plan, it's only natural for any parent to worry. 'As parents, you want the best for your children, but at the same time, your kid is a human too and they want to explore life on their own terms... There needs to be a balance,' he said. So how did his mother eventually come around? 'After I got her a car and everything, she was like, 'OK, I see the vision now.' 'Maybe my path wasn't the healthiest, and I don't recommend it for everyone... I just got very lucky,' he added. Butler ventured into acting when he turned 21, after a friend bought him a US$25 acting class as a birthday gift. He quickly fell in love with the craft. And, after nearly two years of consideration, he finally decided it was something he wanted to pursue as a full-time job. Born in Singapore to a Malaysian-Chinese mother and an English-Dutch father, Butler spent part of his early childhood in Jakarta before relocating to the US at the age of four. Growing up as a minority in the US, he often felt like an outsider. 'I grew up in a diverse area just outside Washington DC. 'While there was a large Asian community, there weren't many mixed kids. In school, all the Asian kids would hang out together, and all the white kids would hang out together, but I never really fit into either group. 'It became a lesson in developing social skills and learning how to play the role of who I thought others expected me to be,' he shared. Butler hopes to star in an action-comedy next. Photo: Handout This struggle followed Butler into his early days in Hollywood, where Asian stereotypes were still rampant in casting. He recalled auditioning for roles that leaned heavily on cliches – martial artists, geeks and even characters with exaggerated accents. 'Eventually, I got tired and told my agents to stop submitting me for stereotypical roles and instead push for characters that are written for white people. 'Although my auditions went down in number, I felt more motivated to push forward,' he said. Butler's perseverance paid off, as he gradually secured the roles he had long dreamed of. He first gained recognition in Disney's K.C. Undercover (2015), starring opposite Zendaya, and continued his rise with the popular teen drama Riverdale (2017-2023). His breakout moment came in 2017 with Netflix's 13 Reasons Why , where he played Zach Dempsey – a high school student who's implied to be suffering from depression following his father's death. Butler stars opposite Katherine Langford, playing her on-screen ex-lover in '13 Reasons Why'. Photo: Handout The role catapulted him to global stardom, earning him a devoted fanbase on social media and unlocking more doors in the industry. In 2019, Butler branched into comedy with a supporting role in the film Shazam! . He has also ventured into romance, taking on lead roles in movies like Love In Taipei and Worth The Wait . The latter project was partially filmed at local hotspots such as Dataran Merdeka, Batu Caves, Petaling Street and more. It centres around four Asian-American couples, whose journeys fatefully intertwine as they navigate life's various challenges. Butler and American actress Lana Condor filmed their upcoming romantic comedy 'Worth The Wait' at various locations across Malaysia. Photo: Handout 'This is the first time I've been able to do any project relating to Malaysia. 'I grew up eating plenty of Malaysian food, thanks to my mum, who would cook various curries and all. 'Being able to eat it here as an adult... It's special, and I felt a deeper connection,' he shared. 1. You've long championed more nuanced portrayals of Asians in Western productions. In your opinion, what needs to change to make that vision a reality? We're making progress, but it's a lot slower than people think. We need more support from outside the US because in South-East Asia, I don't think people realise that all the biggest movies usually feature American or European faces. America is very outwardly focused – they want to sell to the international market, but they don't think Asian faces can sell. That's why I think the international community needs to push their side and support movies like Worth The Wait that's showing these faces. Hollywood is a business corporation. If the numbers show it, then they will fill the market. That's why we all need to be louder and show them, 'Hey, this is what we want to see more of.' 2. Who are the people you look up to in the film industry? I personally admire Malaysian film producers Dan Mark and Rachel Tan because they make a stand for what they believe in. They both fought to have our movie Worth The Wait in cinemas and refused to put white actors as some of the leads despite repeatedly being pressured to do so. Butler with Malaysian film producer Rachel Tan during an exclusive interview with StarLifestyle in Kuala Lumpur. Photo: Yap Chee Hong/The Star That's the kind of artistic integrity I admire because after being in Hollywood for a while, you don't see a lot of that. Hollywood has become all about money, so I'm glad there are people actively fighting to have authentic Asian representation on screen. 3. You have spent a long time playing a high-schooler, but in recent years, have ventured into comedy and romance. What other genres are you hoping to explore next? I really want to do action-comedy, not necessarily kung ku... Not Jackie Chan level because I don't think I could get to that level. I grew up watching films like Rush Hour and Shanghai Noon which have won the hearts of the international market. Comedy is where I have the most fun on set, and when you're having fun on set, you can see it reflected on screen. 13 Reasons Why was enough drama for me (laughs). Of course, I'm still open to doing drama, but I haven't gotten the opportunity to be a lead in an action-comedy yet. 4. Aside from acting, what do you enjoy doing for fun? I have so many hobbies because I love learning new things – salsa dancing, drawing, cooking... so many! Golf is my latest obsession because I feel like it's a game you can't master. The reason I have plenty of hobbies is because I learn things very quickly, but golf is the one thing that has refuted that, and I love that challenge. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ross Butler (@rossbutler) I also love music – I sing, play the guitar and piano, but I don't think it's something I want to pursue full-time. I could do music as part of an acting job. For example, playing a singer. However, I feel like the music industry is way too complex and competitive, and that would take the enjoyment out of music for me. I don't see myself as a songwriter either. 5. What upcoming projects can fans expect in the future? I have two films coming out in the next six to 12 months. One's called Shiver , which is a romantic fantasy film based off a best-selling novel (written by American author Maggie Stiefvater). Another is Zipline , which revolves around a group of adven­turous college kids who travel to an island for a relaxing getaway. But things take a wrong turn when a zipline they're on breaks, leaving them suspended above a deserted lagoon with dangers lurking in the waters. It's a very thrilling movie, so I'm excited to show that. There are also a few other scripts in the works... just various forms of production, so look forward to it! Worth The Wait is now showing in cinemas nationwide.
