Pamela Anderson has called for an end to reality television, saying it is “an epidemic of ugliness”.
The former Baywatch star – who has appeared on reality TV series such as Big Brother, Dancing On Ice and US show Dancing With The Stars – said on Twitter that the genre can leave people feeling “used, dirty, and with no feeling of accomplishment”.
The actress, 51, said: “Did I enjoy being on a reality show?
“Please no more reality shows or reality stars .. even France is polluted with them – it’s an epidemic of ugliness, superficial competitions, desperate and exploitive – for the artist.”
