Super Kook: Pamela Anderson
There’s animal rights and then there’s just ridiculous. Pamela Anderson stirred up some entirely unnecessary drama on the set of her new spoof film Superhero Movie.
The PETA campaigner/serial dater was more than a little peeved upon discovering that her costar would be played by a canine.
In the scene, Anderson’s Invisible Girl character needed to call for her Invisible Dog, who only becomes visible after it is held by the buxom blonde. Apparently - according to PETA’s guidelines - real animals should never be used in movies. Oh yeah, because the lovable furry friends in Homeward Bound and Beethoven were starved and beaten on a daily basis. If animal actors were treated badly they would refuse to cooperate, it’s that simple. Get over it!
“Pamela left the set and went for a walk,” The Arizona Republic quoted a source as saying. “She needed a time out. She was that upset.”
The director Craig Mazin tried to work around the issue by piecing together shots of the dog which were filmed when the melodramatic starlet wasn’t present. Sadly, the entire scene had to be scrapped. What an enormous waste of time!
Back to her love of all things PETA, Anderson has gone so far as to abandon her prized UGG sheepskin boots.
“I’m getting rid of my UGGS,” the actress wrote on her personal blog. “I feel so guilty for that craze being started around my Baywatch days - I used to wear them with my red swimsuit to keep warm - never realizing that they were SKIN!” Is she serious?
“I thought they were shaved kindly,” she added. “People like to tell me all the time that I started that trend - yikes!”
This little Superhero Movie debacle just doesn’t add up – didn’t she read the script prior to stepping foot on the set? Invisible DOG is kind of a dead giveaway, hunny. Come to grips with your role before wasting everyone’s time and money.
