Pamela Anderson Defends Tim Allen
Pamela Anderson defended Tim Allen, saying he had no “bad intentions” when he allegedly flashed his penis at her on the Home Improvement set.
“Tim is a comedian, it’s his job to cross the line. I’m sure he had no bad intentions,” the actress wrote in a text message to Variety, per her cover story published on Thursday, January 26.
Pamela claims in her Love, Pamela memoir, which hits bookstores on January 31, that the incident occurred on set. She says she walked out of her dressing room on her first day of filming the ABC sitcom in 1991 to find Allen wearing a robe.
Pamela says she laughed uncomfortably when he allegedly told her that his exposure was “only fair” because he had seen her nude. This was most likely a reference to her Playboy covers.

However, Patricia clarified to ET that Tim was “well-dressed” in the blooper.
