What Pamela Anderson And Tommy Lee's Son Brandon Thomas Lee Does For A Living

Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson were only married for three whirlwind years, but what they lacked in longevity, they more than made up for in drama. Plus, they squeezed in two sons, Brandon Thomas Lee, and Dylan Jagger Lee — and their sons grew up to be total hunks.

Anderson and Tommy Lee's relationship was an emotional rollercoaster from the get-go: a tragic miscarriage, the burglary that resulted in a private stolen sex tape, and a bitter court battle to stop its release — unsuccessfully. Then came Tommy Lee's arrest for allegedly assaulting Anderson and subsequent six-month jail sentence. Her divorce filing was followed by a reunion. Tommy Lee's second jail stint after Anderson shopped him for a parole violation. Another breakup and reunion and a dangerous Hepatitis C diagnosis. Their friends-with-benefits phase and separation yet again, per Insider.

However, their boys are evidence of the good times. "I had beautiful children with him. My kids are grateful to be born out of true love," Anderson told People. Given the chaos of their early lives, it's surprising how grounded, and mature they've grown up to be. What does their eldest son, Brandon Thomas Lee, do for a living?

Everyone knows about Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee, but what about their sons? 26-year-old Brandon Thomas Lee is their firstborn. Per People, he arrived in June 1996 — 16 months after Tommy Lee and Anderson tied the knot in an impromptu beach wedding where the first-time bride famously wore a tiny white bikini.

Brandon followed his mom career-wise, working as a model and actor. Marie Claire reports that he began strutting his stuff at 18, modeling for Tommy Hilfiger and Dolce & Gabbana and gracing magazine covers. Acting-wise, he's appeared in the comedy-drama "Sierra Burgess Is A Loser" and the drama series "Tales" before segueing into the reality TV world with a starring role in "The Hills" reboot. "I never thought in my whole life I'd ever do a reality show," he confessed to WWD.

Judging by a photoshoot Brandon did for Interview, where he flashes his tattoos while clad in some Calvin Klein tighty whiteys, he definitely takes after his father, too — in certain other departments. Cough. "I've had a pretty crazy life, and I spent the majority of it hiding from the spotlight," he told the magazine, insisting people have the misconception that he and his brother were raised as spoiled Hollywood brats. "Dylan and I haven't taken a dollar from our parents since we were in high school. We've been working our asses off to buy a house, buy a car, and pay for music equipment and acting lessons," Brandon said.

In addition to acting and modeling, he also has his own clothing line. According to Hola!, despite their non-copacetic relationship, Brandon's parents united to support their son as he launched his Swingers Club Capsule Collection in 2021. And as if modeling, acting, and running a business don't keep him busy enough, Brandon is also a producer.

Anderson told People that he was the driving force behind "Pamela: A Love Story," a candid documentary about her struggles throughout life and the new chapter she's embarking on. "Brandon's the businessman. He's this fiery kind of kid. He's just really creative," she said. In 2023 Anderson made a major revelation about her relationship with Tommy Lee. In her memoir "Love, Pamela," she confessed that he's the love of her life. "My relationship with Tommy may have been the only time I was ever truly in love," she wrote.

Meanwhile, Brandon also takes after his father, brawling-wise, it seems. TMZ reported that Tommy Lee called the cops on his son after Brandon punched his dad in the face. What triggered the fight is disputable, but TMZ notes that it occurred after Anderson opened up to Piers Morgan about the alleged physical abuse she suffered. Tommy Lee was furious that his ex-wife was dredging up the past and slammed her on Twitter, claiming she still texted him daily begging for him back.
