PAMELA ANDERSON celebrated her 40th birthday with a pink-themed party in Las Vegas on Saturday.

The former Baywatch babe toasted her fifth decade at the Planet Hollywood Resort following her performance as assistant to illusionist Hans Klok.

Klok – who is rumoured to be dating Anderson – presented the actress with a rare edition of a Houdini book.

Anderson invited ex-husband Tommy Lee, photographer/filmmaker pal David LaChapelle and her bodyguard to join in the festivities.

PAMELA ANDERSON was forced to tell her children about the infamous sex tape she made with TOMMY LEE JONES following the release of the Borat movie.

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan features a clip from the video that was stolen from the former Baywatch star in 1998.

Anderson says she had “a breakdown” when sons Brandon, 10, and Dylan, nine, wanted to watch the movie, forcing her to come clean about the well-publicized video.

She says, “They really wanted to see Borat and I finally had a breakdown and let them because all their friends had. I said, ‘There are a few things we have to talk about before you see Borat.’ And they go: ‘We know about the magazines.’ So that was one gone!

“I kind of went ‘la la la la la la la’ over the parts I didn’t want them to hear. Actually, I did tell them, I said: ‘You know, when your dad and I were first together we used to video tape everything. Everybody’s naked, hugging, kissing, all that good stuff and someone stole the tape. And I remember when we were watching the film and Dylan goes: ‘You mean everybody has seen this?’ And I said, ‘Yes.’”

PAMELA ANDERSON and KID ROCK are officially divorced after being married for just four months.

The former BAYWATCH star and the singer – real name ROBERT RITCHIE – filed for divorce in November.

The couple held a wedding ceremony on July 29 on a yacht in St Tropez, France and Anderson later described the event as “The best most romantic wedding of all time”.

According to court documents, neither party will be legally allowed to marry others until after 28 May, due to a minimum six-month waiting period.

Anderson, 39, and Kid Rock, 36, have both waived any claims for spousal support.

Just days after the couple split, Anderson wrote on her website that Rock “is great in many ways, we just don’t belong together.

“I love my children, he loves his son… we both have a wonderful family and friends as support going through this time.”

Anderson has two sons – BRANDON, 10 and DYLAN, nine – with former husband TOMMY LEE and Kid Rock has a teenage son, BOB JR.
