Pamela Anderson detailed the "super humiliating" moment her "goofball" sex tape with Tommy Lee was stolen – during a period they were "naked all the time".
The Playboy model and Baywatch star, now 55, makes the extraordinary revelations in a new Netflix documentary, detailing her crazy childhood and later life.
A segment in the show surrounds the "disturbing" moment she and ex-husband Tommy Lee discovered their home movie sex tape had gone missing.
It was one of Hollywood's first global celebrity sex tapes and now Pamela has opened up about the raunchy video's contents and the impact of its subsequent leak.

She said: "He came up and goes, Okay. This is a joke, right? Like who? Where do you put the safe and he was looking at my assistant John Roberts at the time."
"They were understandably flustered as the safe contained a collection of their intimate videos – and they had no idea when it was stolen.
"It could have been stolen in a six month time period. So we had no idea it was missing," she explained – revealing they were having housework done at the time.
Pamela explained: "We didn't have any idea that anything in there was gonna be something that would hurt us."

She said: "Tommy told me to go upstairs and he watched it. And I didn't watch it. He came upstairs and said 'this is gonna be disturbing'."
Tommy told his then-wife that it was a "VHS tape of us having sex".
Pamela said: "Oh my god. We realised they have our home video. That's the oh s*** moment.
"We were newly married, we just were naked all the time and filmed each other on vacations and stuff. This was just us being goofballs, honking the horn with his penis.
"What they did is they found all the nudity they could from different high-8 tapes and they spliced together. This was not supposed to be for anybody else."

"We never settled. If anyone buys or sells it, it is just pathetic," she said. "You can't put a monetary value of the pain and suffering it caused. It is super humiliating.
"I knew at that point my career was over. I was thinking I could have had a more serious career and I kind of had to make a career out of the pieces that were left."
