Pamela Anderson Suggests Harvey Weinstein Accusers Should’ve Used Their ‘Common Sense’

Pamela Anderson recently weighed in on Harvey Weinstein’s sexual misconducts and the people who accused him of it.

While speaking with Megyn Kelly on “Today,” Anderson said that Weinstein’s accusers shouldn’t have allowed themselves to be alone with the producer. “It was common knowledge that certain producers or certain people in Hollywood are people to avoid, privately. You know what you’re getting into if you’re going to a hotel room alone,” she said.

Anderson went on to say that when she was a young actress, she used her “common sense” to avoid similar situations. “When I came to Hollywood, of course I had a lot of offers to do private auditions and things that made absolutely no sense. Just common sense: don’t go into a hotel room alone. If someone enters a door in a bathrobe, leave. These things that are common sense,” she said.

Host Kelly tried to speak up on behalf of the Weinstein’s victims that recently came forward. The host said that a lot of them were lured into attending private meetings by their own agents or assistants. However, Anderson’s stand regarding the issue remained the same.

She said that the women should have insisted that another person be in the same room. “That’s what they should have done. Send somebody to them. I think there’s easy ways to remedy that. That’s not a good excuse,” she said.

In 2014, Anderson revealed that she was also a victim of sexual abuse. While speaking at the launch of The Pamela Anderson Foundation, the actress revealed that she was sexually molested as a child. At the age of 12, she was raped. At one point, she was also gang-raped by her boyfriend’s group of friends

Anderson claimed that it was her love for animals that helped heal her from the horrifying events in her life. “My loyalty remained with the animal kingdom. I vowed to protect them and only them. I prayed to the whales with my feet in the ocean, my only real friends until I had children,” she said (via People).
