Pamela Anderson Recalls Plane Incident

Pamela Anderson recounted a terrifying incident on a flight where a man mistook her for a member of the Dixie Chicks and threatened her. During her appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, she described how the passenger angrily approached her, asking, 'Do you know what this country’s done for you?' This led to a stewardess needing to handcuff him to his seat as he attempted to attack her. Anderson connected the incident to the backlash the Dixie Chicks faced in 2003 when Natalie Maines criticized President George W. Bush, which had significant repercussions for the band. The experience left her feeling scared to fly for a while. Despite this, Anderson is currently experiencing a career resurgence with her role in The Last Showgirl, receiving critical acclaim and award nominations.
