Pamela Anderson Reflects on Rosebush Pruning, Provocative Art, and a Resurgent Career

Pamela Anderson discusses her film Rosebush Pruning, a dark satire about a grotesquely wealthy, incestuous family, praising director Karim Aïnouz and explaining why she’s drawn to provocative work. She ties the project to broader concerns about fascism, wealth, and modern culture, shares how gardening and a quieter life on Vancouver Island fuel her artistry, and revisits past scrutiny from the Seth Rogen–era controversy while outlining a busy slate of upcoming roles and a desire to keep evolving as an actress.
