Pamela Anderson squirms as she's asked awkward questions

Pamela Anderson shared her true thoughts on Meghan Markle's Netflix show With Love, Meghan, as she was asked if she thought it was a rip off of her own cooking programme.

The former Baywatch star released Pamela's Cooking With Love in March 2025, shortly before Meghan released With Love, where she invited celebrity friends round to cook for them and offer tips.

Meghan sparked backlash at the time, with critics saying she had ripped off the actress, as Pamela's show was commissioned in February 2023, and the trailer was released in October 2024, whilst Meghan's trailer wasn't released until January this year.

With both actresses filming in luxury homes and talking about their love of taking simple dishes and "elevating it", some people couldn't help but notice the similarities.

But as Pamela appeared on Watch What Happens Live alongside Naked Gun co-star Liam Neeson, she played a game of Plead the Fifth with host Andy Cohen.

He asked her: "On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of a rip off did you feel like With Love, Meghan was of your show Pamela's Cooking With Love? There were articles saying these two shows were very similar."

Pamela looked baffled as she replied: "One," to which a surprised Andy said: "Oh! One. You didn't see any similarities?"

The actress admitted: "No, but I didn't really look. I didn't invent cooking shows or anything," as she added: "She's just doing her thing." The next question was about Pamela's thoughts on Sylvester Stallone refuting her claim that he offered her a "condo and a Porsche to become his number one girl".

An unimpressed Pamela said: "Come on, why would I make that up?" as Andy then cheekily asked Liam if he had offered to buy Pamela a Porsche yet.

But Pamela decided to use her Plead the Fifth when Andy asked her: "Rank your husbands from favourite to least favourite," referring to her famous marriages to Tommy Lee, Kid Rock, Rick Salomon and Dan Hayhurst.

Whilst the actress looked tempted to answer the question, Liam quickly said: "Oh, that's not fair," leading Pamela to use her option of avoiding the question.
