TORONTO – Pamela Anderson says she’s not looking for sympathy, nor for any apologies for the myriad career indignities she details in her recently released memoir and documentary.
The B.C.-born beauty icon says she’s focused on pursuing a new stage in her life that includes a second season of her HGTV Canada renovation series and an upcoming Food Network Canada show.
Anderson is suddenly back in the spotlight with the recent release of her memoir, “Love, Pamela” and the Netflix film, “Pamela: A Love Story.”
Both detail the highs and lows of a wild Hollywood career that included several tumultuous romances and a bitter legal battle over the infamous stolen sex tape that she says humiliated her and destroyed job prospects.
Anderson says she “obviously “¦ made a lot of wrong turns” in her life and that she’s still learning from some of those experiences.
She says the first season of her HGTV Canada series “Pamela’s Garden of Eden” waded further into her personal life than she would have liked.
Anderson says she’s taking greater control of the second season that’s currently in production.
“It’s all worked out,” she said Thursday during a promotional stop in Toronto.
“I know everything is happening for a reason. There’s a lot of things going on. And I’m happy.”
