Anderson makes dancing comeback

Pamela Anderson has confessed she feels like "a bit of an underdog" on the new all-star series of US show Dancing With The Stars.

The former Baywatch actress, who competed in the 2010 series of the show, has joined previous contestants including Kirstie Alley, Joey Fatone and Bristol Palin for the first episode.

In a video shown before Pamela's Cha Cha, she told professional partner Tristan MacManus: "You'll have to contain me."

She also confessed: "(I'm a) bit of an underdog. All these athletes and Bristol Palin - she's got the whole Tea Party right?"

Pamela wore a sparkly pink fringed dress for her performance, with judge Bruno Tonioli telling her: "I like what you are and what you do, you are very entertaining but you need to work harder."

Meanwhile, former Cheers actress Kirstie - whose Foxtrot got mixed reviews from the judging panel - planted a smacker on host Tom Bergeron to congratulate him on his recent Emmy win.
