Kanye West stirred up confusion among fans after sharing a throwback video of Pamela Anderson on his Instagram Story. The clip, which dates back to 2008, features the “Baywatch” star presenting Playboy founder Hugh Hefner with a birthday cake for his 82nd birthday.
In the video, Anderson, then 40, appears wearing nothing but high heels as she carries the cake to the iconic mogul. Hefner, who passed away in 2017 at the age of 91, is seen smiling and holding onto Anderson’s waist as she twirls around and kisses him on the cheek.
West, 47, paired the explicit footage with audio that repeatedly stated, “Hide your bitch.” The post left many fans puzzled, with some questioning the intention behind it. One user on X (formerly Twitter) remarked, “I don’t think Pamela Anderson is going to like what Kanye did…”
Another wondered aloud, “Erm did Pamela Anderson approve Kanye to post that video or…?” A third expressed frustration, saying, “Why the f-k did Kanye West post Pamela Anderson naked in his stories? It’s very difficult to defend this man, I try very hard sometimes.”
Is it a hint at collaboration with Pamela Anderson?
The post has also sparked speculation about a potential collaboration between West and Anderson. Some fans recalled her appearance in his 2006 music video for Touch the Sky, a track from his second studio album, Late Registration. However, neither West nor Anderson has addressed the post publicly, and representatives for both were unavailable for comment.
Pamela Anderson is no stranger to the spotlight. She first graced the cover of Playboy in October 1989 and made history in January 2011 by appearing in the magazine for the 13th time-more than any other model.
Meanwhile, West has a history of sharing provocative content on social media. In recent months, his posts have often featured his wife, Australian model Bianca Censori. Earlier this month, he shared photos of Censori wearing a see-through bodysuit that highlighted her figure. When criticized for posting risqué images of his wife in the past, West bluntly told fans to “go f-k” themselves via Instagram.
West and Censori tied the knot in December 2023 following his high-profile divorce from Kim Kardashian. While West has always been known for his bold and unpredictable behavior online, this latest post has left fans divided, with some questioning his motives and others trying to decipher if it’s a teaser for a creative project.
