Pamela Anderson Recounts Frightening Plane Incident Over Mistaken Identity
The actress revealed a passenger mistook her for a member of The Chicks and had to be restrained after attempting to attack her.
- Pamela Anderson shared on the 'Happy Sad Confused' podcast that a man on a flight mistook her for a member of the country band The Chicks, formerly known as The Dixie Chicks.
- The incident escalated when the man became aggressive and had to be handcuffed to his seat by a flight attendant to prevent him from attacking Anderson.
- The man’s anger appeared to stem from the 2003 controversy surrounding The Chicks, after lead singer Natalie Maines criticized then-President George W. Bush over the Iraq War.
- Anderson admitted the experience left her shaken and caused her to feel apprehensive about flying for some time afterward.
- The story was recounted during Anderson's promotion of her upcoming film, 'The Last Showgirl,' for which she has received critical acclaim and a Golden Globe nomination.
