Pamela Anderson Dispels Debt Rumors

The word around the gossip campfire these days says that Pamela Anderson is nearing bankruptcy after building a Malibu mansion. But she says she’s doing just fine.

In a recent interview, the former “Baywatch” babe called the reports of her financial hardship “crazy,” stating that the only drama in her life right now is a dispute with a building contractor over some of his work.

Pammie explained, “These reports are crazy and I cannot believe this has become a media issue. I am actually touched at how much concern has been expressed for me over this. It is true that I am in a dispute with some of the contractors working on my home. This is because after paying millions of dollars to build the house I continue to get bills from the contractors. My lawyers are reviewing the work done to see if the bills are fair. If they are, they’ll be paid. If they aren’t, they won’t be.”

She continued, “I am just sorry this contractor went to the press, especially when I was working out of the country. I did not speak publicly about this before because I had no desire to embarrass anyone who worked on my home and whose work and bills are now part of arbitration. On a separate issue, mistakes may have been made in calculating taxes owed and we are now in the process of ensuring that any taxes owed are paid. Unfortunately there are tax liens. However, I’m financially secure and I want to thank everyone who expressed concern for me based on these rumors.”
