Pam and Kid's P.R. War

The Pam Anderson/Kid Rock split is not about kids. It's not about money. It's not about houses. It's about image.

I'm told Kid's process server was on the courthouse steps before the doors opened yesterday. His divorce documents were stamped at 8:35 AM, five minutes after the clerk's office opened for business. Pam's process server followed 53 minutes later.

What each tried to do was tell the public that one left the other first. Image-conscious stars care a lot about looking desirable. Hey, who doesn't? Looking like you were dumped isn't sexytime.

There is plenty of anger in this split, but it's not going to be a war. The divorce itself will be handled with dispatch. The only real disagreement is over when they officially separated. Pam says they parted company on November 21. Kid says it was November 26. In an ordinary divorce, the date of separation often becomes an issue because it affects who gets what; in this case, there's no prenup and no real dispute over splitting coin, so the date is irrelevant. Again, it's all about image.

This has been a tough holiday season for celebs. Divorce seems to be in the bottled water. But in the case of Pam and Kid, it seems they won't have trouble getting past the loss. They each seemed way more focused on looking like they were on top.

16. I would like Pam Anderson to start a new show, she can feature me! I want to be all done up like her. She can have me sliced and diced and implanted. I used to be beautiful, now I look like a mom with 4 kids that works too hard. Send this to Pam. I live in Vancouver. Maybe she can come see me while she is working here.

Why is TMZ ignoring Paris and Britney's weekend bender?

18. Pam Anderson is just plain nasty.
I'm really more into political blogging but this story has caught my attention. I always thought she was going to break his heart but it looks like he is the one who woke up and saw the nasty old ho for what she is. thank GOD he woke up. he is too talented to lay with that trashy old thing. what if those boobs popped and all that stuff went flying around? what is in there? is it silicone or what? ugh. gross.

19. Pam's sons must be all screwed up. She must have a revolving front door so it makes it easier for men to come and go as quickly as possible. She dresses like a " prostitute " and she is a very poor role model for her children. Her lack of respect for the institution of Marraige is inexcusable. Lets hope her kids don't go looking for someone " just like Mommie " She is a classic example of someone WHO SHOULD NEVER GET MARRIED . Just another BIMBO who never learns from past mistakes. Just keeps making them over and over again. Her real talent lies BETWEEN HER LEGS. . ( I heard some man is missing in Malibu......perhaps they should search for him there ....ha ha lol. )

Clean yourself up Pam. HIre a stylist and get rid of that make-up artist you pay 8,000 a day to and " get a new look " Maybe you should call MIchelle Phieffer or Jaclyn Smith. THey are older than you and look a hell of a lot better.

They manage to look classy and beautiful without doing much. Less is more in your case. No man with any character wants to " Marry a Whore. " My husband told me he would " RUN " if something like that came anywhere near him. She must be crawling with different strains of STD. She has just become really "GROSS ". ( We already know how discusting Kid is ) I would do hurdles and back fiips to get away from that Chicken . Talk about " unattractive " As far as $$ goes. They don't need each others $. They have plenty of their own.

20. Pam took a role in a comedy. She is not going to be handed a Cate Blanchett role with her existing image. People have never tuned in to Pam for Shakespeare. She knows that, and has never pretended to be something she's not. She takes work when she finds it, as she has kids and her future to support, and always tries to do a good job of it. Kid Rock was WAY out of line if he said any of those things to her. That's verbal abuse, and belittling. Kid Rock is HARDLY a classy Brosnan type himself; he looks like a pimp caricature, and calls himself Kid Rock, for God's sake. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Good luck to Pam; she's a really nice Canadian who would fare well with a better, higher class guy who would support her and be less likely to spout those archaic and double-standard attitudes. A great guy would be most concerned with her feelings so would never say such things if he truly cared for her. Derogatory name calling past the age of 12? Whoa. Run, Pam. Badly done, Kid.
'Kid.'...That must explain it...

22. Regarding Tysin's question about Kid Rock getting Hep C. You should inform your self before you make a coment like that especially in a public forum such as this. Most people, like you, don't understand exactly how Hep C is transmitted. It is rarely,less than 1% transmitted sexually. It is usually transmitted by a blood to blood contact, such as a transfusion, operations, needle stick, drug users, or unclean medical equipment. Sometimes people like myself, never know how they received the disease, but not all people who have Hep C, are drug users, or sexually active with many people. It is a misconception, unfortunately, Pamela Anderson doesn't do much to help with the awareness of Hep C and what we all can do to prevent this from spreading. Because it is a silent and deadly disease, many, many people have it right now and don't know it. It is an ugly and horrible disease to try to cure, we need educational role models, not Pam Anderson. I have Hep C, and I have never used drugs or had a tattoo, and I live a different lifestyle. I choose to have the horrible treatment and I am now in remission, she is too vain to try the treatment, she will wait too long, and die waiting in a liver transplant, while someone who didn't do drugs and party die waiting on a liver that might go to her. Sucks doesn't it. Educate yourself, maybe you can make a difference.

23. Pamela Anderson use your popularity and do something useful instead of making yourself look like an idiot. Take the opportunity to teach people about Hep C. and how to avoid getting it, and how to help themelves. There is only one kind. I have the same kind you have, so stop bullsh*tting everyone about why you won't take the interferon treatments, you don't want the side effects, they suck, they will cramp your lifestyle, well either be useful for the disease or shut up about it. Not all of us got it like you. So, stop saying we don't have the same kind, there is only one kind, it's called the Silent Epidemic Killer Hep C and people need to know about it and you have a responsibility to use your voice and tell the whole story about it. Other wise shut up about, and don't wait until you're dying and try to use your name and get a liver transplant from someone who deserves it. You live by the sword, you die by the sword. Take your pick, don't use Hep C when it's useful to you. You disgust me when you use a killer for sympathy. Try helping yourself and lay off the drugs and alcholhol and life makes a little better picture and maybe you wouldn't look like such a fool. You don't speak for me when I say I have Hep C. I say you are an embarrassment to the disease. And to me. I couldn't ask for a worse celebrity to have this disease because you make it look like a drug addict, sex addict disease, which it is not. You make it harder to get funding for research. You are the face of Hep C. Many people will die while you party your life away and fight to save ours. Thanks alot. Happy Honeymoon. You always look the blushing bride, I assume that's because you are ashamed of your behavior. I am sure your children are, and your parents. My children would die if I acted and wore the types of clothing that you do, you look like a teenage hooker. Just 45 years older. with bags

24. Big Dan,
Kid Rock grew up in a wealthy, upper-class suburb of Detroit. He is far from "white trash" - it's all an act.

25. Pam said her kids knew the truth. I wonder want that means. Did she tell them she loves Tommy but Bob is who she was going to be with cause Tommy didnt want her back. Come on Pam this isnt good for kids now is it? Do you not know what...FOR BETTER OR WORSE MEANS??? What are the kids going to think about you now? People can say you are a good mom but I say you are teaching your kids to get married 4 days after they know a person and that you can toy with peoples hearts and marry and divorce in 4 months. I feel sorry for those boys. And poor Bob and Bobbie Jr they moved from there home to be with you and your kids. You knew from the start it was'nt going to work. You just wanted to play games. What are you telling the boys now Pam??? KID keep walkin with your head held high, Cause you dont need that HOld up wait a minute.. You get the point....

26. I heard that Borat, or Pam's appearance in his movie, is the reason for the break up. Anyone else hear that?

27. It's sad any time a marriage ends. I have a sneaky suspicion that her recent miscarriage may have had something to do with it. Many couples cannot handle the pain and loss that accompanies such a tragic event. They wouldn't be the first, and won't certainly be the last. I just hope that eventually they will be able to find happiness.

28. I've always thought Kid Rock was a latent homosexual. Now more than ever.

29. LOOK OUT TOMMY, SHE'LL BE BACK. IT'S KIDS TURN FOR VACATION. BY THE SUMMER SHE WILL BE DUMPING TOMMY FOR KID AGAIN. PAM, WHY DON'T YOU CONCENTRATE ON YOUR CHILDREN RATHER THAN A MAN!

30. This woman is the embodiment of what a true whoa really is! She also doesn't have a clue. The only talent she does have is talking from the side of her mouth that looks like it's been lifted by a hook. These guy's luv getting blow jobs sideways. She also should be the poster girl for the Aids epidemic ads. She must get tested constantly for HIV. Run boy's run, far, far away. In stead of posing for sexy posters she should be posing with HIV patients that I am sure she infected.She is truly a death sentence. Have a Happy!
