Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson have fans on Bae-watch.
The “Naked Gun” co-stars played coy on recent dating rumors during a “Today” show appearance on Tuesday.
Craig Melvin kicked off the interview by immediately addressing the “folks on the Internet talking about this budding love story.”
The journalist, 46, noted, “I think we’ve got some proof for the fans that are out there.”
He went on to play a clip of Anderson and Neeson on the NBC set appearing to kiss — with the moment seemingly staged with a creative camera angle — and acting shocked to be discovered.
Melvin bluntly asked the pair “what’s the deal” between them.

“You’re both single right now,” he pointed out. “There’s clearly chemistry on display throughout the film. Are you two an item?”
Neeson, 73, replied by repeating Melvin’s first name, while Anderson quipped, “I don’t understand the question.”
The actor chimed in to clarify he met Anderson, 58, on set and “discovered we have a lovely budding chemistry.”
The “Taken” star noted, “[We decided], ‘This is nice, let’s not mull this, let’s just let it breathe.’ So that’s what we did.
“We’re both silly,” he added. “We discovered a silly bone in each other. … It was great to be with this lady, seriously. Every day was a joy.”
Anderson, for her part, agreed that she and Neeson have a “natural chemistry.”
The duo initially sparked romance speculation last week after a cozy red carpet appearance, with the “Baywatch” alum kissing Neeson’s cheek at the London “Naked Gun” premiere.
The PDA came months after the Oscar nominee admitted to being “madly in love” with Anderson.
The pair played into the headlines during an Entertainment Tonight interview Monday at the film’s New York City premiere, which they brought their sons to.
Anderson leaned into Neeson while gazing into his eyes, coming “so close” to kissing her co-star.
The actress has been married five times to Tommy Lee, Kid Rock, Rick Salomon — twice — and Dan Hayhurst.
As for Neeson, his late wife, Natasha Richardson, died in 2009 after a tragic skiing accident.
