If nothing else, Pamela Anderson Lee's legal battles are generating oodles of free publicity for her upcoming syndicated show, VIP. The buxom beauty, who filed for divorce from her husband, Tommy Lee, last week, filed another suit this week against the Seattle- based Internet Entertainment Group, which is trying to market a tape of the actress having sex with her ex- boyfriend Poison singer Bret Michaels. You'll recall that IEG is the same company that released the sex video of Pam with her now estranged hubby. That tape, which the Lees unsuccessfully tried to keep from going public, is the best- selling adult video ever.

Lee and Michaels have filed separate $90 million lawsuits against IEG in Los Angeles federal court to block release of the latest tape, which the company wants to sell on the Internet. Michaels has already been granted a court order stopping the video's debut until the dispute is resolved.

On Wednesday, the former Baywatch babe was grilled behind closed doors by IEG's attorneys over the video, which features her stripping to New Age music and Michaels cavorting in a vampire outfit. After giving her deposition, Lee read a statement regarding the tape of her and Tommy, calling its release an invasion of her privacy and denying reports that the couple received money for it. "A tape was stolen from Tommy Lee and myself," she told reporters. "IEG is now selling that tape worldwide, illegally, without my or Tommy's consent. Further, we have not received one penny or signed an agreement permitting them to merchandise this tape." She added, "I will continue to fight not only for myself and my children, but also for legislation that would make what they are doing to me a crime." IEG says the couple signed a release allowing the tape to be sold. "We feel good about our legal position," says IEG attorney Alan Isaacman.
