Pamela Anderson once begged Baywatch creators to 'rewrite' one scene with her co-star for a particular reason.
The 57-year-old actress shot to fame after starring as Casey Jane 'CJ' Parker in the hit drama, but her blossoming career appeared to have taken a major toll on her relationship with Mötley Crüe's Tommy Lee.
Pamela and Tommy first tied the knot back in 1995, but their relationship at times was incredibly tumultuous.

"It complicated her life. It complicated our life," said co-creator Baywatch Michael Berk in the docuseries, After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun.
He also recalled a time that Tommy allegedly 'trashed' Pamela's trailer when he rocked up the set while she was shooting a scene with David Chokachi.
Michael also claimed that Pamela once begged him to 'rewrite' a scene due to Tommy's 'insecurities'.
"Pam came to one day and said, 'Please rewrite this scene where I have to kiss David Chokachi'," he said.
Quoting the star, he continued: "'Tommy’s feeling is just feeling really insecure right now and it’s not a good time'."
Co-star Michael Douglas added: "We always had issues with Tommy Lee being jealous of Pam's relationship with other actors on the show."
However, David, who played Cody Madison on the show, considered his relationship with Pamela like that of 'brother-sister', but it would appear as if Tommy didn't agree.
"Tommy Lee took our scenes when we were boyfriend and girlfriend at face value" David said. "I felt bad for [Pam] because she was under a lot of pressure."
And last year, Pamela opened up a little more about her relationship with the Mötley Crüe drummer, who she divorced twice in 1995 and 1998.
She told The Guardian that he would arrive on set every day while she and her cast mates were shooting to claim his 'wife time'.
"Tommy was so jealous," the A-lister recalled, before admitting: "I thought that’s what love is."
Discussing one Baywatch scene which she wrote about in her journal, which was subsequently read in the Netflix documentary, Pamela a love story, the actor recounted: "I had to kiss David Chokachi but I didn’t tell Tommy.
"He lost it. He trashed my trailer on the set, put his fist through a cabinet. I apologised for not telling him – lying, as he put it – and told him it wouldn’t happen again."
Pamela also claimed that if the Baywatch team 'saw Tommy coming', they'd 'change the dialogue, change the scene', as per Metro.
Elsewhere in the interview, the mum-of-two explained that Tommy was 'the love of my life', adding: "I know it wasn’t perfect but, you know, no one’s perfect.
"Oh OK, perfect for me. Two imperfect, crazy people. We made two beautiful babies and so I don’t have any regrets."
Tyla has contacted Tommy Lee's representatives for comment.
