Pam Anderson’s Diva Behaviour in Montreal

Posted by andPOP Staff on June 10th, 2008

Pamela Anderson isn’t making herself any friends in her native country.

The Canadian bombshell infuriated the owners of the Opera in Montreal this past weekend by breaking a contract with them.

Anderson was set to walk the red carpet, speak with journalists and host a contest. She was also to pocket $100,000, reports Perez Hilton.

Unfortunately, Anderson’s diva behaviour got the best of her. She snubbed the media, though the agreement was to speak with each journalist for five minutes. She didn’t end up hosting the contest, and never went inside the room that was filled with flowers at her request.

Anderson reportedly spent most of her time relaxing on a leather couch.
