Pamela Anderson has opened up about her 1995 sex tape with then-husband Tommy Lee in her brand new Netflix film, Pamela, A Love Story<\/a>.<\/p>\n The video recording was initially stolen from the couple\u2019s home in the \u201990s and they later lost the court case to have it banned.<\/p>\n Recalling the deposition, she says in the two-hour long film: \u201cI didn\u2019t know that I was going to be completely humiliated. And I remember walking into the room. All these guys in there, they had up naked pictures of me. The lawyers basically said, \u2018You\u2019re in Playboy, you have no right to privacy.\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cAnd that was a bit shocking but\u2026 They would ask about my sex life and I kept on thinking, \u2018How am I getting questioned about my preferences, and my body parts, and where I like to make love, when it\u2019s stolen property?\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cIt made me feel like such a horrible woman. I\u2019m just a piece of meat. That this should mean nothing to me because I\u2019m such a whore, basically. They didn\u2019t have a lot of sympathy for me.\u201d<\/p>\n The actress went on to add that having the personal tape stolen brought back painful memories from her childhood.<\/p>\n She continued: \u201cThey thought, \u2018Oh she\u2019s in Playboy, she likes being naked in public.\u2019 First of all, it was my choice to be in the magazine. Playboy was empowering for me. But in this case, it felt like a rape.<\/p>\n \u201cNot to bring up something really heavy from my childhood, but when I was attacked by this guy, I thought everybody would know. When the tape was stolen, it felt like that. And the depositions were so brutal. I remember looking at them thinking, \u2018Why do they hate me so much?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n Earlier in the film, Anderson spoke about being sexually assaulted at age 12 after attending a friend\u2019s house.<\/p>\n Told via a voiceover, an excerpt from Anderson\u2019s childhood journal revealed: \u201cI was 12, 13-years-old with my friend. She had a crush on a guy much older than us. We went to a friend\u2019s condo.<\/p>\n \u201cShe went upstairs with the guy she had a crush on. I started to play backgammon with her friend downstairs while I waited for her. We played for a while until he said I looked like I needed a massage. He was 25, I was 12.<\/p>\n \u201cHe raped me. I felt like it was my fault. My mum was always crying about my dad. I couldn\u2019t bear to hurt her anymore. I didn\u2019t tell her or anyone.\u201d<\/p> Last year, Hulu released a drama series titled, Pam and Tommy<\/a>, on Anderson and Lee\u2019s sex tape, starring Lily James and Sebastian Stan.<\/p>\n In the documentary, Anderson says she had no idea the drama was being made and so it reminded her of when the sex tape was stolen.<\/p>\n \u201cI blocked that out of my life, I had to, in order to survive really. It was a survival mechanism and now it\u2019s all coming up again, I feel sick\u2026 This feels like when the tape was stolen,\u201d she says in the film after a phonecall with her son Brandon, who managed to watch the first three episodes.<\/p>\n \u201cBasically, you are just a thing owned by the world, like you belong to the world,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve been affected by any of the issues raised in this article, visit the\u00a0Rape Crisis<\/a>, Victim Support<\/a> or NSPCC<\/a> websites for support and information.<\/em><\/p>\n Pamela, A Love Story is available to stream on Netflix.<\/strong><\/p>\n Looking for something else to watch?
