The Gist

• Pamela Anderson revealed the unexpected way she won over Liam Neeson at their first meeting at SiriusXM's Town Hall on Wednesday, July 30.

• The Naked Gun actress shared that she was "nervous" and determined to make a good first impression.

• The co-stars are reportedly in the early stages of dating.

It sounds like the way to Liam Neeson’s heart is through his stomach—at least when it comes to Pamela Anderson’s baking skills. Amid reports that Anderson and Neeson are in the early stages of a budding relationship, the Baywatch icon revealed the unexpected way that she got her Naked Gun co-star to fall for her on the first day of filming.

During a Sirius XM event in New York City on Wednesday, Anderson revealed that she was “nervous” ahead of meeting Neeson for the first time—and she decided to whip up something special in the kitchen to make a good first impression. “[I was] nervous to meet [Liam], of course and you're always nervous the first day on the set…” the cookbook author shared, revealing how she started the pair’s working relationship off on the right foot. “I brought sourdough bread to Liam and cookies and muffins and it kept me busy. Kept me out of trouble.”

As for the recipe in question, she explained, “It's a very special [muffin] recipe. It's very good for you. Let's just say that.” It sounds like it got Neeson’s seal of approval, as he called the sourdough “phenomenal” and shared that he liked that the muffins had “a lot of bran.”

While the Playboy alum’s baking skills might have been the icing on the cake, Neeson also revealed that he was instantly smitten by Anderson at their first meeting. “Well, you know, we had never met before and I remember thinking, ‘Wow, she is gorgeous,’ but she had this wonderful sense of silliness and just humanity about her,” he shared. “I don't want to blow her head up, but it was like I just felt an ease with her, you know, and we discovered a silliness with each other, which was terrific, you know?”

The on-screen couple, who have played coy with their new romance, first sparked dating rumors when Anderson kissed the Love Actually actor on the cheek at a Naked Gun red carpet event. While they might be keeping their relationship under wraps for now, a source told the Daily Mail on Wednesday that Neeson and Anderson have continued to bond over their culinary interests. “Pam cooks and gardens at home. It’s wholesome and appealing and very un-Hollywood, and Liam loves that,” the insider shared, revealing that Neeson also “actually gets involved” in these activities.
