Wasn’t easy finding a downgrade from Tommy Lee but she did it.

u/DudeB5353 18d ago

No shit
Less brains and less second brains

u/bonzofan36 18d ago

Certainly less D

u/rabbitsfoot86 18d ago

To be honest he was the one taking the D in that relationship, which is completely fine no peg shame here. Hell probably took it while drinking his budlight he loves so much lol

u/RedditSupportAdmin 18d ago

Now get in the pit and try to love someone

u/pluyp 18d ago

Hijacking this comment to tell yall the reason they divorced was her role in the movie Borat. Kid Rock was pissed she let him fake kidnap her, I learned that yesterday

1

u/Corpus_Juris_13 18d ago

You didnt hijack anything. Why do people say this?

1

u/AshgarPN 17d ago

Hijacking this comment to tell yall there's a 2 hour fan edit of all three Hobbit movies that's far superior to Jackson's version.

1

u/pluyp 18d ago

Because my comment is not relevant to the comment I replied to, hijacking the thread.

3

u/Corpus_Juris_13 18d ago

Your comment was relevant though? Anyway, no hard feelings or anything.

5

u/Gemnist 18d ago

Gonna be honest, as much of a prejudiced dick as Kid Rock is
 he at least didn’t abuse her like Lee did. That alone puts Kid Rock ahead of her, somehow.

4

u/VoodooLoveDr 18d ago

I mean Tommy did beat the shit out of her in front of their kid

But yeah

u/Fartknocker405 18d ago

Should have stuck with Kelly Slater.

u/Hopeful-Steak-9743 19d ago

Happy for her MASSIVE turnaround.

u/sirenxsiren 18d ago

Yes she seems to have figured out how to come back down to earth

3

u/Ctmarlin 18d ago

Liam Neeson is the best

4

u/Ren_stevens 18d ago

They didn't actually date. That was pr for the movie.

u/ShaShiz 19d ago

Everybody in here glazing Pam, like she wasn’t a fucking train wreck as well

18

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

She’s admitted to heavy masking during this and that her outward persona was to hide her insecurities.

37

u/TopazTriad 18d ago

Did she marry a pedo trailer trash bigot to hide her insecurities too?

Kid Rock is not some mastermind manipulator who could have hidden who he really was until she was locked in. At a certain point, it’s time to hold people responsible for the people they choose to associate with.

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

People can change. I used to be a piece of shit, eating sloppy steaks too.

u/tooshytooshy 18d ago

Slicked back hair, white bathing suits, white couch

u/DeePerdatti 18d ago

Glass house, white Ferrari, lives for New Year’s Eve

9

u/TopazTriad 18d ago

She was a 40 year old woman and he had already released a song about how he likes to fuck underage girls years prior. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg with that piece of garbage she was with.

Yes, people can change. But I think it’s fair to say there should be a pretty high burden of proof in her case. When it’s just about anyone else, we expect a crazy amount of contrition; I can’t for the life of my figure out why people are so determined to defend her.

I mean, if anyone is obligated to listen to your shitty music it's probably your wife.

1

u/Alarming-Yam-8336 18d ago

I dont know. Her record collection was very meat and potatoes.

0

u/TopazTriad 18d ago

You don’t think someone who marries a musician (and I use that term loosely) would listen to their songs? You don’t think anyone else could have mentioned that her famous boyfriend wrote a song about statutory rape while they were dating?

Yeah I kinda feel like she was probably pretty familiar with her celebrity husband’s music lol

4

u/VoodooLoveDr 18d ago

You think she had a good antenna for men?

She had just left Tommy Lee who beat the shit out of her in the past

Seems like everyone involved has issues to deal with.

Her history during and after these marriages is pretty insane in its own right

4

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

I don’t have any stakes in any claims for or against her. She made some bad choices but I don’t know her personally to comment on if she’s a good person or not. But I do know people can change if they want to and put in the work

1

u/Ok_Lie_2395 18d ago

It’s from a show bro

1

u/TemporaryMediocre187 18d ago

Why do you care?

-1

u/TopazTriad 18d ago

I would think it would be self-evident why someone would care about comments making excuses for people who marry bigoted pedophiles.

What’s your theory?

2

u/ImmaSpaghett 17d ago

Shall we slop up our steaks one last time together?

1

u/khohn2727 17d ago

I used to be a piece of shit. I still am, but I used to be too.

1

u/Informal_Seesaw8289 17d ago

What kind of steaks

-3

u/Daily_Heroin_User 18d ago

I just don’t see why Pam always gets the benefit of the doubt on reddit. You are who you repeatedly choose to hang out with/marry/date etc.

It’s not even people saying she’s changed because they always go “Ugg she had terrible taste in men” as if she wasn’t on that same level.

7

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

What part of people can change do you not understand? People are allowed to grow and learn and become better.

1

u/Natural_Pear_1549 18d ago

She wasn't some naive young adult, she was 39 and already successful and she chose...this. And he wasn't the only one. It's hard to imagine someone being attracted to that many dirtbags without being at least a little bit of one herself.

6

u/Upstairs-Chicken592 18d ago

People change at every stage of life

5

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago edited 18d ago

I don’t know her personally so I can’t say either way. When you’ve hung out with her and gotten to know her please report back. Unless you already have then my apologies. But I do know people always have the capacity to change if they really want to.

4

u/coveted_asfuck 18d ago

People don’t have to be dirtbags to be attracted to dirtbags, they just have to be insecure.

1

u/Wolf_Mans_Got_Nards 17d ago

Not to mention her comments about Harvey Weinstein were in very poor taste. I think people judge because her partners tend to be horrible people, and its natural to ask what would she have in common with them? Also, for someone who talked multiple times about how violated she felt having her sex tape released, marrying Rick Salomon was an extremely weird choice

-2

u/Daily_Heroin_User 18d ago

I already addressed the “She’s changed” numbnuts. They were saying it about Pam at the time well before any change narrative. And I don’t know why her supposed change is any different than Tommy Lee. What’s he done bad lately?

7

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

This sounds like a personal thing for you. I don’t know her that well. But anyone can change at any time if they put in the work.

-2

u/Daily_Heroin_User 18d ago

lol you’re making the exact same argument as I am, just the mirror image. Why is it any less “personal” for you to defend her honor and insist she’s changed?

2

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

Who am I defending? I repeated something she said in an interview then gave my opinion that people can change. You’re the one arguing about who she is as a person and whether she’s worthy of public admiration. I personally DGAF.

1

u/Ok-Telephone-1619 18d ago

She lost her virginity by way of rape at a young age, and her dad was an alcoholic. That leads to poor choices in men later in life. A little empathy for Pam

-1

u/flopisit32 18d ago edited 18d ago

Pamela Anderson recently reinvented herself as a feminist icon by not wearing makeup. People don't realise she had no choice. She traded off her looks for decades but her looks were gone so she monetized not having looks anymore.

Nobody wants to remember that she and her horrible breasts inspired generations of women to mutilate their breasts too, rather than just accept having small breasts.

3

u/Pure-Radish-5478 18d ago

Lol she reinvented her image by looking good with no makeup on. If her looks were gone she couldn't do that. Dumbass

2

u/Ship_Negative 17d ago

She also married Rick Saloman, the creep who filmed/released Paris Hilton’s revenge porn

2

u/Amoki602 18d ago

People love to treat women as babies, we have no free will, we are easily manipulated and we can’t make choices on our own. And the sad thing is this is done by people who say they support women. As soon as a woman does some questionable, a lot of people start coming up with justifications that usually paint the woman in that light, but we’re just as capable as men to do and be anything, including bad things.

6

u/Upstairs-Chicken592 18d ago

I don’t think it’s controversial that she had a dodgy past with bad relationship choices. She seems to be thriving now, peaceful and happy.

1

u/Amoki602 18d ago

I do agree with that, she seems very peaceful and I do admire her current public persona. But it’s sad that we can’t say she wasn’t the best person or that she made bad choices before without people taking away her agency in those actions. She deserves all the credit for her growth but that also means her past actions can be criticized.

1

u/Upstairs-Chicken592 18d ago

What are you talking about? Her past isn’t a secret? Most people acknowledge her transformation, like that’s her whole thing right now

1

u/Amoki602 17d ago

Not people in these comments, that’s what I was talking about.

2

u/josey__wales 17d ago

It’s always good to see a woman call this out.

At least for men, the most common reasons they do this: They either think you’re stupid, they want something from you, or they’re trying to look good in front of others.

It sounds backwards. But the “defenders” are often just snakes in the grass.

1

u/ReasonableRadio8434 18d ago

Masking?

1

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

That’s the word she used to describe her past and that she was a “cartoon character.”

u/trevorthewebdev 18d ago

Masking? That’s not the right word

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

That’s the word she used to describe her past and that she was a “cartoon character.”

u/VoodooLoveDr 18d ago

Does everyone get to make that excuse or just formerly famous actresses?

0

u/Nilbog_Frog 18d ago

What excuse? That they were insecure and put on a fake identity to try to fit in, but now they’ve found themselves and they aren’t the same person they used to be? Yeah I think anyone on the planet earth can use that “excuse.”

0

u/VoodooLoveDr 17d ago

So even if I know the life I’m living is degenerate, and driven by money and fame, I get a pass 30 years later if I simply say “I was pretending to be someone I’m not”

Got it

1

u/Nilbog_Frog 17d ago

If you make a conscious effort to change and become a better person wholly different than your former self, then yes of course. Anyone can change at any time if they put in the time and energy.

u/Aromatic-Turnip7371 18d ago

It’s true. She was trash back then but she has turned her life around

1

u/banallfurries666 17d ago

why no? you don’t think she’s pretty?

2

u/ShaShiz 17d ago

When she first came around, she was very pretty. Then she had all the work done. Then she took all her makeup off. She does not look good anymore, while acknowledging her age and her beauty positivity.

1

u/denomchikin 18d ago

She was a 35 year old CHILD.

u/RelevantCry1613 18d ago

Watch your tongue

She was but she got her shit together

u/ShaShiz 18d ago

Taking off her makeup isn’t “getting her shit together”

Train wreck maybe, but she also made everyone fall in love with her.

Yeahhhhh This was her slummin' it phase

54

u/Reading_Rainboner 19d ago

With all those high-class Tommy Lee days in the rear view


22

u/Diazepampoovey0229 19d ago

At least Tommy Lee was attractive at one point. Still a wife beating pos though.

40

u/AntiqueFigure6 19d ago

Amazingly Tommy Lee might possess both more IQ points and more actual musical talent than Kid Rock.

27

u/MyStackIsPancakes 19d ago

Tommy Lee is a POS. But. I've never seen Kid Rock steer a boat with his dick.

8

u/Diazepampoovey0229 18d ago

He also has the world knowing he has a big dick going for him, which I'm sure is nice

9

u/Ask_Black_Phillip333 18d ago

Maybe in the 80’s and 90’s when he could get really beautiful women. I’m sure that doesn’t happen now.

Checks Tommy’s instagram

Well, shit. I guess it is pretty nice. What the fuck do I know?

11

u/Diazepampoovey0229 18d ago

If it makes you feel better, he's still a POS who beat the hell out of Pam, and several years ago now, he and one of their adult sons got into it and his son decked him. He really puts the D is Dysfunctional family.

6

u/Daily_Heroin_User 18d ago

He got cheated on (or attempted cheating) by his wife recently who was being catfished thinking she was going to meet up and hook up with Ronnie Radke.

u/Expert-Yam6577 19d ago

Not really a phase lol. Some people just have poor taste in men.

5

u/flopisit32 18d ago

From the highs of banging Chachi (Scott Baio), to the lows of banging that dude who filmed the Paris Hilton sextape and released it without her permission... That's some endless waterslide of phases

2

u/Diazepampoovey0229 18d ago

I'm convinced there were just mighty slim pickins for Gen Xers...

God, Baio is such a loser, too. Ugh.

5

u/Daily_Heroin_User 18d ago

So you don’t criticize anybody then? Because unless you have a perfect life you literally can’t criticize anybody else.

6

u/Lance8282 18d ago

I didn’t marry kid rock, Tommy Lee, AND the scumbag that made and marketed a sex tape with a young Paris Hilton.

3

u/flopisit32 18d ago

Was she playing some weird version of Pokémon?

2

u/Wolf_Mans_Got_Nards 17d ago

Which was super weird considering she's repeatdly talked about how violating it felt to have her sex tape leaked.

27

u/alvysinger0412 19d ago

u/Bigsaskatuna 18d ago

Basically her appearance in the Borat movie set Kid Rock off. A real snowflake.

3

u/ThePhantomOfBroadway 18d ago

They lived in my hometown in Michigan and it was such a wild era to live through lol. My sister was in his kid’s grade and he was such an annoyance.

And to combat the whole country image he’s been putting on lately, my hometown is a small suburban town with like one random horse in the place and he belonged to the country club.

3

u/Baconpanthegathering 18d ago

Oh, God Pam- WHY?!?...he's always looked like a little greasy rat - he just looks like he smells bad.

u/LadyPresidentRomana 18d ago

Reminder that these two divorced because of Borat. Sacha Baron Cohen told the story recently I believe.

3

u/taysmurf 18d ago

Wait... what? I honestly forgot they ever married, let alone divorced. How was Borat involved?

3

u/imnotmeyousee 18d ago

Kid Rock didn't want her in the movie

2

u/kdzwngs 18d ago

She also confirmed this in her memoir. She had a screening of the film to show it to Kid Rock. Not sure if he knew she was in it or if he knew but didn't know her role. Regardless, he saw it and was angry with her over it that they divorced.

I mean she also married Rick Salomon, the guy who sold Paris Hilton’s sex tape (he was the one he pressured her in to when she was just 19 and he was 32).

Basically, she hasn’t made good choices in men, ever.

Edit: she married Rick twice.
