Pamela Anderson Used This Comfort Food to Win Over Liam Neeson originally appeared on Parade.
There are some celebrities who seem like they can do it all, and Pamela Anderson is chief among them. Between her iconic turn as C.J. Parker on the original Baywatch television series and her influence on beauty and fashion in the 80s, to her leadership in the makeup-free movement in 2025, her animal rights activism work and, now, her showing-off of her comedic movie chops in The Naked Gun, she can just about do it all. We also can’t forget about her passion for cooking and baking. Like many passionate foodies, Pamela knows that home-cooked food is a good way into someone’s heart.
Recently, there has been a lot of talk online about a possible budding romantic relationship between Pamela and her Naked Gun co-star, Liam Neeson. The two Hollywood actors have been seen being all too happy in each other’s company while on the press junket for the reboot of the 1988 cop comedy. Whether or not the two are an official item is up for them to announce to the world but a couple of things are for certain: Pamela and Liam have great chemistry on-screen and off-screen, and Liam is completely smitten with Pamela’s home cooking.

The Pamela Anderson Dish Liam Neeson Swears By
“Pamela’s an extraordinary cook and baker,” Liam Neeson said in a recent radio interview. The Taken star went on to recount how when they were filming The Naked Gun in Atlanta, Pamela made Neeson a “beautiful” sourdough bread along with a batch of muffins.
A loaf of bread may seem like the most basic thing in the world, especially for one celeb to give to another celeb. But that couldn’t be further from the truth! Not only is sourdough bread delicious but to make the perfect loaf, it requires a baker to practice immense patience and precision.
Gifting a homemade loaf shows the recipient that you as the baker have invested your time and care into creating something thoughtful and special for them. And it is not an exaggeration to say that Neeson was, well, taken by Anderson’s homemade gesture. In the same radio interview. Neeson went so far as to proclaim that “eating her bread” is his idea of being in a happy place.
