Has anyone else watched? I really liked it! Her sons are so, so sweet to her and I loved that. She clearly did a good job with them despite all the choas with their dad. I really hope she has a comeback that makes her happy, I get the sense she considered herself "washed up" in recent years, but I think people really want to see her! I am really glad she got to tell her story on her terms and I'm rooting for her. I couldn't believe how many years of journaling she had done.
ETA: I should note a TW if you plan to watch. She went through some terrible things in her childhood.
I haven't watched yet but I definitely will. She's from a town about an hour away from where I live and I know she's done a lot to support animal rescue in the area. I get the sense she has a really kind heart.
I really enjoyed it! I heard her on Armchair Expert, which is what prompted me to watch the doc.
Someone was just telling me about that, I'll have to listen to it. I was cringing so bad watching her interviews with Jay Leno et al, asking her such personal questions. About her breasts, her sex life. She handled it with grace and humor, but it was so gross of them.
I was hoping that someone would watch and report back. Thanks for the review…I recently read an article about her and found it to be interesting and not what I expected.
I want to watch and have always thought she seemed like a genuinely nice person, but she made a comment on Armchair Expert that made me cringe. She said something about how only people who can afford kids should have them and it made me want to Homer Simpson back into the bushes. Dax didn't comment and changed the subject.

She definitely has some problematic beliefs. On her Pamela Anderson foundation website, she used to have a blog where she had multiple posts fawning over Julian Assange and Vladimir Putin (she just have had it scrubbed pending the release of her book and the doc) She had victim blamey stuff to say about the Weinstein victims back in 2017 and repeatedly doubled down on it at the time. Her thoughts on Hefner, that she married Rick Solomon twice, second time after he released the Paris Hilton tape, marrying Kid Rock….
All that said, she obviously did not deserve the sexist and disgusting behavior, and the way she was treated in the media, and her tape being released. The interview clips were awful. She seems like a sweet person and very good humored and definitely presented differently than I thought. See

No no no also no and no no no no stop it. I swear to god you guys will make excuses for anything.

I’m not making excuses for any of the stuff I listed above just saying it was still gross seeing Matt Lauer leering at her and she didn’t deserve to be abused by Tommy Lee.

Yeah I feel like I missed something. People can be exploited and victimized and still be problematic in their own way. People are complicated.
I really enjoyed it. I think her views on things like rape and exploitation have been shaped by the things that have been done to her, starting as a child.
And she definitely went through pretty poor times as a child, so maybe that is why she thinks you should only have kids if you can afford them. Not making an excuse, but our opinions are shaped by what we experience in life.
