Pamela Anderson's Son, 28, Criticized for 'Entitled' Behavior at Fancy Country Club He Was Kicked Out Of: 'Full of Himself'

The son of a former Playboy model and a rockstar is making headlines—not for his Hollywood connections, but for causing a stir at a posh country club that reportedly got him booted from the premises.

Brandon Thomas Lee, the 28-year-old son of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee, was reportedly kicked out of the exclusive Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, California, after a recent incident, TMZ reported on August 13. The news sparked mixed reactions online.

The expulsion followed a heated confrontation on the golf course, where Brandon allegedly violated club rules by driving his golf cart too close to the green. A fellow member began filming the violation, leading to a shouting match that ultimately resulted in Brandon's removal from the club.

The club's board decided to revoke Brandon's membership after reviewing the incident, which they described as the final straw. Several members and staff had reportedly found him rude in the past, contributing to the decision.

However, a source close to Brandon disputes these claims, insisting that this was his first and only incident and that he had positive interactions with others at the club.

News of Brandon's expulsion sparked a wave of reactions online, with many criticizing his behavior. "Wow," reacted one netizen. "Another ENTITLED celebrity kid!! What’s new [sic]??🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️," one person commented.

Another user added, "What do you expect from these entitled elites. Society should pay them no mind [sic]." Others were particularly offended by his alleged bad manners. "There is absolutely no excuse for rudeness.." one user stated, while another suggested, "Must have his dad's temper."

Despite the criticism, some defended Brandon. One supporter said, "He's not a bad guy, not at all. But he does tend to get a little extreme when there's a disagreement that doesn't go his way."

Another shared a perspective, "He'll be fine and he's nothing like his father. yes he's a bit full of himself. The way he and his brother care for their mother speaks volumes!! they are good kids! So he went off on a rich dude! wipe your tears in hundreds and move on [sic]!!"

Pamela and Tommy have been open about their son's personality and his career choices. In 2019 Pamela expressed her support for Brandon's entry into reality television, particularly his decision to join MTV’s "The Hills: New Beginnings."

She described her son as "wild" and "invincible," praising his fearlessness in pursuing his passions. She expressed confidence in his journey, noting that he’s bound to have a great time, and hinted that it would be highly entertaining due to his humorous nature.

Pamela also highlighted that Brandon has maintained a sober lifestyle, which she believes contributes to his strong character. "He doesn't drink, and he has such a great time. For some people, [drinking] actually takes your personality away," she said, emphasizing her pride in his choices.

In contrast, Tommy has had a more complicated dynamic with Brandon, especially after a public altercation in March 2018, where Tommy claimed his son knocked him out. Despite this, the two have since reconciled.

The altercation was also featured on "The Hills," showcasing the complexity of their relationship. Brandon revealed that revisiting the event on the show was challenging but necessary, given its impact on his life during filming.

He admitted to warning his dad about the footage, expressing uncertainty over what he might have said while upset. Ultimately, despite the conflict, Brandon said his father is still his "best friend," and they have moved on.

With Brandon and Tommy now on good terms, Brandon is proving that he’s more than just his father’s son. This was evident when he and Pamela made a splash at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party in June.

Pamela and Brandon quickly became the talk of the town, sparking a wide range of public reactions. While opinions varied, Brandon received widespread praise for his suave appearance, which many felt carried the same charisma as his father.

In contrast, Pamela's choice to present herself in a natural, unadorned state sparked a flurry of mixed commentary, especially where her hairstyle was concerned.

Social media users expressed mixed reactions to Pamela's appearance, with some criticizing her for not styling her hair and others suggesting she looked intentionally unkempt. However, a few applauded her natural look but recommended using natural makeup products and tidying her hair.

Some responses were more critical, highlighting the contrast between the "Barb Wire" star's iconic image and her current appearance. One user expressed shock, suggesting she looked unkempt and as if she were ready for a casual shopping trip.

Despite varying opinions on Pamela Anderson’s look, many agreed that Brandon Thomas Lee is very handsome and praised the family’s good looks.

Many also marveled at the striking resemblance between Brandon—who also shared pictures of the event on his Instagram—and Tommy, with comments like "Brandon looks a lot like his dad," and “He looks like [his] dad but a better-looking version.”

Though there were many comments expressing dislike for Pamela's choice for a casual and less glammed-up look, her embrace of a more natural look is not a spur-of-the-moment decision but a reflection of her evolving perspective on beauty and self-presentation.

Additionally, people online have not been the only ones who wish Pamela would invest in a glam team as she admitted that her sons and agents have requested the same of her. However, in response, Pamela clarified, "I know how to put a dress on myself. I don’t need someone buttoning up my blouse. I got this."

Her statement illustrates her preference for simplicity over the orchestrated glamor that once defined her public image. This shift aligns with her desire to present herself authentically, challenging the expectations and norms that have long influenced her life in the spotlight.

Pamela Anderson has not been the only one to be open about reclaiming her narrative as Brandon has also shared insights into who his mom really is.

While talking about the documentary he produced about Pamela's life—"Pamela, A Love Story"—Brandon disclosed, "She isn't a creation. And now people know that she's just this nice, small town girl who wants to relax with her dogs and hang out in her garden."

He describes Pamela as "a great protector, and a great mom," highlighting her dedication and love as a mother. She made sure to be present in his life by arranging contractual agreements that allowed her to attend his sports games, practices, and significant events.

Brandon's insight further enriches the understanding of Pamela, not just as a public figure, but as a person whose priorities reflect her deep love for her family, which includes her other son, Dylan Jagger Lee.

Pamela's evolving image and Brandon's country club drama reveal the complexities of fame, showing how public figures balance family ties with scrutiny, while reminding us that in the celebrity world, authenticity is always key.
