So far the film Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan has ticked off the nation of Kazhakstan, a couple of Southern frat boys, and countless other unwilling victims that were lampooned in the movie. Now we can add Kid Rock to the list.
Though Pamela Anderson, 39, and Rock, 35, filed for divorce on November 27 (citing “irreconcilable difference”) after four months of marriage, tensions between the two had been brewing for awhile.
A source close to the actress tells Us that “the beginning of the end” came in late October at a private screening of Borat (in which Anderson stars as herself) at Universal Studios President/CEO Ron Meyer’s house.
According to a witness, Rock (né Robert Ritchie) grabbed Anderson and stormed out of the screening room after he saw the scene (spoiler alert!) where Borat finally watches Anderson’s infamous sex tape with former husband Tommy Lee and realizes that his dream girl isn’t a “virgin.”
“Kid stood outside screaming at Pam, calling her the worst words – slut, whore, you name it,” says the source. “It was horrible, and she was just so hurt by it.” A source close to Rock confirms the incident, saying, “Yes, he was angry. He thought it was cheap that she put something like that out there. He didn’t see the humor.”
What was the final straw in the dissolution of their marriage? Why doesn’t Rock approve of Anderson’s friendship with Blonde and Blonder costar Denise Richards? How will the couple – who didn’t have a prenuptial agreement – divide their assets? For more details on Anderson and Rock’s split, as well as what’s up next for the former couple, pick up the newest issue of Us Weekly, on newsstands this week.

PAM DOES NOT DISPLAY OR RECOGNIZE THE VERY ESSENCE OF MARRIAGE AND THAT IS RESPECT. SHE SHOULD HAVE HAD RESPECT FOR THE MAN SHE MARRIED BY NOT INDULGING IN EXPLOITS THAT WOULD DISMANTLE THE MARRIAGE. SO, KIDROCK FLEW INTO A FURY, SO WHAT. HIS MANLY STANCE IS THAT PAM IS HIS WOMAN THROUGH MARRIAGE AND HE ONLY WANTED HER TO CONDUCT HERSELF AS SUCH. BESIDES, HE WANTED TO PROTECT HER BY REJECTING ANY DIMINISHING PAST BEHAVIOR THROUGH A MEANINGLESS MOVIE.

The girl has exposed her body parts more than Britney Spears, and he just now realizes she is a slut? Her entire image is based on silicone. EVERYONE knew she made a sex tape with Tommy (among others), so he shouldn't have been shocked by that either. I did have to laugh at Pammie though. She wants the media to be nice during the divorce because her kids are old enough to read and can't tell what is the truth or not based on tabloids. Her kids are old enough to load a video into the VCR too. They can also access the internet. Her boys will require therapy as adults, and it will have nothing to do with what the tabloids write about her divorce. Her behaviour is trashy, and THAT is what will mess those kids up. I don't care if she goes to soccer games. Soccer moms don't go to games half naked.

Ok. I am confused. How did Kid Rock NOT know she was a slut when he married her? Hello! She has been in Playboy, hooked back up with Tommy Lee several times, was with Stephen Dorf (!!) and her career is based on playing sexy, dumb blonde sluts. He can't call her names and make her feel bad about it. It's who she is and he knew what he was getting from day one. He should feel lucky. Pam might be a little skanky, but she is much easier on the eyes than he is.

"SACHA COHEN PORTRAYS HIMSELF AS A BIG CLUMPSY AND STUPID LOW-LIFE, AND THERE IS NOTHING FUNNY ABOUT THAT. HIS MOVIE IS SO FILTHY, DISCUSTING AND DEGRADING. AND IT'S INSULTING TO ANYONE WHO WATCHES IT."

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't she make that video with Tommy before they even got married? Oh no, she made it before they even DATED! I understand Kid's frustration because he doesn't want his wife portrayed that way but the problem is that she's ALWAYS portrayed herself that way! She is literally a sex symbol with a sex tape and she is nude all over the place, hell my husband has her Playboy issue in the bathroom! I just hope for the sake of the kids that this doesn't get nasty, I don't think it will though but who knows?

The Anonymous posting at 11:22 was not only irrelevant, but ignorant. Jon Stewart (Yes, it's spelled Stewart) has nothing to do with this story. If you're going to throw verbal stones, do us all the favor of making them grammatically correct.
It should be "making foolS of themSELVES".
Obviously "Anon" should be watching less Fox (faux) news and reading more. Just a thought.

Borat looks just as bad as Jon Steward & David Letterman. They are SCUMBAGS. They will do anything for attention and money, including making complete fool of themself.

I think his pride was hurt, that was the cause of the outburst at the movie screening. Even when you know what you are and what you have married ... a guy has his limits.
God love em, both. Bless their hearts.

Hey someone had to say it to her face, I'm surprised she was "hurt" by it though, come on, she has to be called a whore at least once a day. So first Tommy Lee beats her, then Kid Rock can't stand her she's a whore, I wonder why men don't respect her, geee, that really makes no sense....

I do not approve of either of them. However Pam has to learn to treat herself with more respect. Even though it has been said she did an excellent job in the movie Borat.
While Kid Rock should not have called her names, I agree with him if he does not approve of her friendship with Denise Richards.

BORAT is a pretty humorous look at American cultural values, and PAMELA ANDERSON could be viewed as exhibiting something like her own wit at being able to make fun of herself, and of the "character" she recreated herself as, in order to get the money and the celebrity she wanted from this society. IF the report in US is factual, perhaps PAM thought her role in the film was just the usual whoring that everyone in "entertainment" performs, and not a big deal. After all, both PAM and KID have sex tapes; they both have ex-partners, and they both have slutty public personas. True, probably not many men, or women, want to even be reminded of a spouse having sex with another, let alone having to watch it screened to an audience in which you're a member, but to get so dramatically upset about what you already know your mate is, professionally, and to take that personally... come on. KID wouldn't have even met PAM if they weren't BOTH big fat public attention-seekers. Does he expect her to change into a fantasy version of his own making, now that they're "married"? Whatever that means! On the other hand, why didn't she consider that he might have feelings, given the situation, or did she want a conflagration? Perhaps BORAT can figure this stuff out in his sequel!

Team Pam definitely. It's a comedy, the kind of joke they would have on Saturday Night Live. Her sex tape is infamous it's poking fun at herself and it's nice I think that she can find the humor in an otherwise awful situation. If Kid Rock really did call her those names it's unacceptable. Borat is a clever movie, I think everyone is too quick to get offended.

Granted "Kid Rock" should have realized that when he married a "sex goddess" that there were going to be issues with other men lusting after her, etc... That being said, she totally disrespected him and their marriage by allowing the sex tape, etc.. to be used in a movie. I don't blame him for being upset, but he should not have called her names. As to any other issues in their marriage, I have no idea what they might be. It's too bad they do not believe they can get past this. Marriage is hard work and hollywood couples (not to mention most of the couples in this country) seem to bail at the first sign of trouble. It's very sad. I hope they reconsider their vows and reconcile.

I haven't even seen the Borat movie yet. Is it really that funny? Go Pam for losing Kid Rock. He's so raunchy looking, and probably a wife beating crackhead.

Team Pam. :) Plain and simple.

I have several thoughts on the issue
1. I feel that Pam may have terminated her pregnancy or something, and kid freaked, and since the press would have gotten wind of it, she decided to announce the "miscarraige". She would not want to have the baby b/c of his violent tendancies, and she married him to try and get over Tommy for good anyways, so there. I would be mad too if i saw my signif getting it on with the ex. She has no class. but he had no right to call her names and hurt her, either. He could have handled it better. They are both pathetic.

I think it is extremely childish of Kid Rock to overreact that way. The world knew about the tape which was made years ago before they even dated. If he had such a problem with it, he should have never dated her.

i mean why he got married with Pam... she's the sex tapes queen
instead of be mad should be enjoying her wife's abilities

CORINA Says:
I don't care for either of them. But I would kind of freak to if my husband put that out there for everyone to see...again!!! It is the past and needs to stay there. Pamela needs to have more respect for herself. I think she enjoys having people look at her like she is a slut. If she acted prim and proper, then the guys wouldn't lust after her.

Good, cause I would wear pointy boots to kick you with, then I'd feel bad afterwards, but you'd still have to be in the doghouse and I'd have to spend all your money. Bad times.

I don't get it. Kid Rock HAD to know about the stupid movie of her and her ex. So what's the big deal. If something like that freaked him out so much..why did he marry her to begin with? And please...isn't there a sex tape of HIM to??
