In 1996, Pamela Anderson and her then-husband Tommy Lee’s world was rocked when they discovered that their sex tape had been stolen alongside a safe from inside their home.
Pamela, now 57, has always been incredibly open about how violated this whole incident has made her feel over the years, and she was first asked about the stolen tape during an interview with CNN in May 1996.
In 2015, Pamela opened up about the legal battle that followed during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, where she said of the tape: “I’ve never seen it. I made not one dollar. It was stolen property. We made a deal to stop all the shenanigans.”
“If anyone watches it, if anyone buys it, if anyone sells it, it’s just pathetic. You can’t put a monetary number on the amount of pain and suffering it caused,” the star added in her 2023 documentary, Pamela, A Love Story.
In short, Pamela has made her feelings about her leaked sex tape incredibly clear — and that is why people were left stunned when Lorde made some pretty bizarre comments about watching the film after having a psychedelic therapy session in a new interview with Rolling Stone.
“She’s not sure why, but she watched the whole thing,” the profile reads, with Lorde being quoted as saying: “I found it to be so beautiful. And maybe it’s fucked up that I watched it, but I saw two people that were so in love with each other, and there was this purity.”
“They were jumping off this big boat.… They were like children. They were so free,” she went on. “And I just was like: ‘Whoa. Being this free comes with danger.’”
Suffice to say, Lorde’s comments have not gone down well, and the star was harshly criticized when her quotes circulated on X on Thursday. Referring to the singer by her real name, Ella, one viral tweet reads: “A stolen tape that’s basically revenge porn and you’re using it as part of some bullshit ‘psychedelic therapy sessions’ lmfao you’re not an alty angsty teenager anymore, Ella, you’re just an adult loser.”
