Naked Gun co-stars Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson romance: His son approves of the new relationship
The 73-year-old actor and his 58-year-old Naked Gun co-star star are believed to have started dating after meeting on set.
When they appeared on talk show Watch What Happens Live to promote the film on Sunday, host Andy Cohen — who was a close friend of Neeson's late wife Natasha Richardson — admitted he was a big fan of the new relationship.
'The question that I'm not asking the two of you tonight is what's going on between the two of you,' Cohen said.
'But I do just want to say, as a very old friend of (Liam's), all of your friends are very much stanning this relationship, as the kids say.'
Neeson then put his hand on Anderson's shoulder and she reached to squeeze it.
Cohen asked Neeson's son, Daniel, who was sitting in the audience: 'Right Danny?'
To which he replied: 'Yes.'
On Friday, Anderson shared a series of photos of herself and Neeson on Instagram.
'The Naked Gun is finally in theatres! Bring your friends, family, lovers ... whoever ... just go and have a laugh ... it's good for you!,' she captioned the pictures.
'I'll see you there (white heart and popcorn emojis).'
Daniel, 28, commented on the post with a string of emojis including hands up, fire and white hearts.
Richardson's sister, Joely Richardson, also commented on the post with red heart emojis.
Cohen recently admitted he was happy for Neeson over his budding romance with Anderson because he can see similarities between the former Baywatch star and Richardson, who died in a skiing accident in 2009, aged 45.
Speaking on his SiriusXM radio show last week, Cohen said: 'Natasha was a dear friend of mine and I'm gonna tell you something. I, and all of the friends in this circle, are very much stanning whatever this is.'
'As I was telling him at the premiere party, I go, 'Liam, she is an independent woman just like Tash was. She loves to cook. She has her own thing going on. She has two boys.''
Cohen insists 'this just works' as Anderson has been through a lot with her sex tape scandal and whirlwind marriage to ex-husband Tommy Lee — with whom she has sons Brandon, 29, and Dylan, 27.
'She is a formidable human being, Pamela Anderson. She really is. What she's been through and how she kind of reclaimed herself and redefined herself,' the talk show host added.
Neeson — who had Michael, 30, and Daniel with his late wife — previously confessed to being 'madly in love' with Pamela as he gushed about working with her.
'With Pamela, first off, I'm madly in love with her,' Neeson told PEOPLE.
'She's just terrific to work with. I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She's funny and so easy to work with.'

Brad Pitt's mother dies aged 84
Brad Pitt's mother Jane Pitt has died. The retired school counsellor has passed away at the age of 84, People reports. Brad's niece, Sydney, has already taken to social media to pay a glowing tribute to Jane, explaining that she "cared deeply for everyone and everything". Alongside a series of throwback photographs, Sydney wrote: "My sweet Grammy, Jane Etta, we were not ready for you to go yet but knowing you are finally free to sing, dance, and paint again makes it a tad easier. "If you knew Grammy, you knew she had the biggest heart. She cared deeply for everyone and everything, no questions asked. "She taught me how to paint, how to be strong, how to lead with kindness, to love Jesus through everything, and to find joy in the smallest things. She made up the silliest games just to make us laugh, and she believed in fairness, in putting others first, and doing good simply because it was the right thing to do. "Every year before school, she gave each of us grandkids a 'special day' which was a whole day to do whatever we wanted (and Papa had to go along with it… though I know he secretly loved it too). Mine usually started with banana splits for breakfast, hours of playing Trouble, a craft project obvi, riding every ride together at Silver Dollar City like the bada** she was, dinner at Olive Garden with Papa, mini golf where she'd make a V with her feet to help me aim… (and somehow still beat me) and ending the night watching Paulie until we feel asleep. "She could keep up with all 14 of us grandkids without missing a beat. There was no limit to the love she gave, and everyone who met her felt it. "I don't know how we move forward without her. But I know she's still here in every brushstroke, every kind gesture, every hummingbird. She was love in its purest form. "We were truly blessed to have her to love on growing up and I know she lives on through each of us (sic)" Brad has yet to make a public comment about his mom's passing. However, he recently gave a shout-out to his mom during an appearance on the Today show. He told anchor Savannah Guthrie: "I gotta say hi to my mom because she watches you every morning. To Jane Pitt. Love you, mom."

Jonathan Bailey hails 'extraordinary' Scarlett Johansson
Jonathan Bailey thinks Scarlett Johansson is "extraordinary". The 37-year-old actor starred alongside Scarlett, 40, in Jurassic World Rebirth, and Jonathan loved the experience of working with his showbiz pal. He told Extra: "She's one of my favourite people I've met. She's extraordinary." Jurassic World Rebirth was directed by Gareth Edwards and also starred the likes of Mahershala Ali, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and Ed Skrein. Jonathan felt fortunate to work with such a talented group of people on the movie. He said: "We didn't actually talk about the script at all. But when you're going into something like this, it shows the sort of mercurial magic of, you know, putting people together, surrounding it with incredible special effects people, Gareth with his team and people he's worked with before." Jonathan jumped at the chance to become part of the Jurassic film franchise. The actor - who also stars the Wicked movies - shared: "When you're doing this, there's nothing to complain about, like at all! "You know, of course you wanna feel the heat, you wanna feel like you're about to pass out at points, but also, you know, like, wading through the mangroves in Thailand with a film crew. It's like..." Meanwhile, Scarlett recently revealed that she had to contend with some "extraordinary circumstances" on the set of Jurassic World Rebirth. The actress filmed the movie in places like Malta and Thailand, and Scarlett admitted that she found it to be an "insane" yet rewarding experience. Speaking to People, she shared: "We all laughed a lot, and we were thrown into such extraordinary circumstances physically. "Half our set would wash away, and then ten minutes later it would grow too large, and there's no continuity to anything because the sun was moving in. It was just insane." Scarlett actually recalled one particularly scary experience when they were filming in Thailand. The actress said: "When we first got to Thailand, we had to do a camera test of the full costume and all that stuff, and just putting all the pieces of the costume together and then standing in a mosquito-infested bush, I was like, 'This is really happening.'" In another scene, Scarlett wore a harness to navigate her way down a cliff. And the Hollywood star now admits that it was a painful experience. She said: "We wore harnesses under our actual harness. "You have a movie harness that looks like a harness, then you have an actual harness that's hooked up to a line, because you're not actually abseiling, you're on a stunt rig. "I was happy to say goodbye to the harness!"

Kris Jenner called out for having ‘six toes' in alleged Photoshop fail
Don't miss out on the headlines from Entertainment. Followed categories will be added to My News. Kris Jenner was called out after seemingly sprouting a sixth toe. The reality star's feet raised eyebrows as she shared photos from her mum MJ's 91st birthday lunch at The Ivy in Beverly Hills, as reported by Page Six. The 69-year-old rocked a chic Oscar de la Renta gown and accessorised with a matching cardigan, gold purse and open-toed sandals in the pictures – which revealed an alleged Photoshop fail, prompting eagle-eyed fans to sound off in the comments on Instagram. Kris Jenner was called out after fans spotted an apparent sixth toe in her Instagram photos. Picture: Instagram/@krisjenner 'You have 6 toes??' one user wrote, while another quipped, '6 toe steppa.' 'Does she have 6 toes or am I trippin?' a third asked, to which a fourth responded, 'you are NOT trippin.' Others were more preoccupied with Jenner's dramatically youthful appearance. 'What in the Benjamin Button?' one person marvelled, with another adding, 'is it just me or did she get younger?' A representative for Jenner did not immediately return Page Six's request for comment. Jenner wore a chic Oscar de la Renta dress with a matching cardigan and gold bag in the photos. Picture: Instagram/@krisjenner '6 toe steppa,' one follower quipped. Picture: Instagram/@krisjenner This is nowhere near the first time the family has been roasted for a suspected Photoshop fail, having been called out on multiple occasions for various photo-related reasons. In a 2019 ad for their perfume collaboration, Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner were both ridiculed for seemingly having six toes on their feet. In the KKW Fragrance campaign, the sisters wore co-ordinating asymmetric pastel bodysuits and translucent open-toed heels. At the time, a representative for Kim told Page Six that the six-toe illusion was not a Photoshop faux pas, but instead the result of the sideways angle of the Skims founder's foot. In 2019, sisters Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner were called out for the same reason. Picture: Instagram/@kimkardashian Other infamous Kardashian-Jenner Photoshop gaffes include the 2021 cousin swap when Kim admitted she pasted niece True Thompson's face onto her other niece Stormi Webster's body in a photo from Disneyland alongside her own daughter Chicago West. 'The original (Disneyland) pics were Stormi!' she wrote via Instagram Stories after a TikTok user called out the switch. 'However I asked @kyliejenner if I could post them and she said (crying emoji) she wasn't really feeling posting at the moment and so I respect that! But I wasn't going to mess up my IG feed. Chi was wearing pink and it matched perfectly.' A year later, in 2022, Kim was accused of Photoshopping her own leg in a photo promoting a Skims bikini – and she hastily deleted the photo. Khloe Kardashian was called out for a similar apparent leg edit in 2023, and Kourtney Kardashian once faced criticism after her backside appeared unnaturally large in an animal-print robe.
