Erin, 39 starred in the 1988 movie, “The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking,” after beating out 8,000 other young actresses for the role
UPDATE: Erin spoke with TMZ Tuesday afternoon and blamed an ex-boyfriend for attempting to sell the private sex tape. She has not yet been approached about the video, and plans to make sure it never gets released.
Former Pippi Longstocking star Tami Erin features in an unauthorized 'hardcore' sex tape which is being 'shopped around town', it has been alleged. More than 25 years on from her breakout role in film The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking, the 39-year-old actress is reported by TMZ to appear in footage featuring an unidentified male. The tape is described as containing 'X rated footage' and 'appears to have been shot recently,' although the website says it is 'unclear' who is selling the footage and if anyone has purchased it. Tami told TMZ she had nothing to do with the tape and said she would ensure it never gets released. The star, who is described as being 'irate' blamed a 'bitter ex-boyfriend' for attempting to sell the tape.
'I think he's the biggest piece of s**t on the planet for doing this to me,' she said. The latest reports follow Tami's arrest in April where she was arrested for allegedly assaulting her male roommate. She later claimed she was acting in self defence, alleging the man had been secretly filming her, and that claims he was the victim of an assault were not true. In a statement, Tami later said she caught the man 'filming me without my knowledge in my private environment and I was defending myself.
'How much has he been filming me without my knowledge? The truth will come out,' she added. A representative for the actress said she was not nude at the time of the alleged filming.
Tami first broke into show business at the age of eight when she became a model and appeared in commercials. Her career watermark came when she played a nine-year-old with superhuman strength in the 1988 film adaptation of the beloved children's books by the late Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. Tami won the coveted part of Pippi out of more than 8,000 young actresses from around the world. Erin most recent acting work was in the 2010 movie Tim & Eric’s Awesome Christmas Special starring Zach Galifianakis and John C. Reilly.
