Pamela Anderson’s new boyfriend might not be as good for her as she thinks - according to friends, she’s partying too hard at the moment.

When asked about her lovelife recently Pamela refused to confirm the identity of her suitor but is said to be dating Rick Salomon - of the Paris Hilton sex-tape One Night in Paris fame.

A source close to Pamela told the New York Post that her friends are worried about Rick’s influence on her life while she stars in Hans Klok’s Las Vegas magic show: “She parties almost every night. She drinks, she does stuff . . . and she’s got hepatitis C. Her liver is shot but she keeps living this crazy lifestyle.”

The friend was especially surprised about their behaviour over the MTV Video Music Awards weekend earlier this month: “They went wild over the VMA weekend. I just watched them party with my jaw open.”

“We don’t think she understands how serious this is. She has two kids and may not be around to see them grow up at this rate.”
