10 Smoking Hot Facts About Baywatch's Carmen Electra

There were only two women who defined the '90s: Pamela Anderson... AND CARMEN ELECTRA.

I mean, Pamela was sweet but Electra was the the teenage dream of literally MILLIONS of us. Her whole thing on Baywatch was incredible and basically made that show the international sensation that it became.

She had those sultry eyes, the natural tan and that crazy body BUT there is more to her than what we saw on TV and in movies... 10 things to be exact.

1. She was dating Prince and he gave her name "Carmen" because she wasn't a Tara anymore. He named a song after her: "Carmen On Top."

Her real name is Tara Leigh Patrick.

2. She's been on Playboy four times since 1997. I can't imagine why...

We're talking June 1997, December 2000, April 2003 and January 2009.

3. During her first season of Baywatch, they did her dirty by having her dress in the bathing suits of Pamela Anderson and Yasmine Bleeth.

But by the end of the season, she finally got on that her name on it!

4. She hosted a a strip aerobics fitness video.

I must have re-watched it a hundred times. Because, uh... I love fitness.

4. Prince discovered her when she was just 18. And under Prince's record label, she released a single called "Go-Go Dancer."

5. She married former Chicago Bulls legend and North Korea aficionado Dennis Rodman in Las Vegas.

Ah... the '90s.

6. She was in five terrible movies with the word "Movie" in it. That includes Scary Movie which spoofed the horror genre and more specifically Scream. 

The other four were Date Movie, Scary Movie 4, Epic Movieand Disaster Movie.

But they gave us THIS so thank you.

7. She lost BOTH her mother and her older sister, Debbie, within two weeks of each other. This is her mother.

Her older sister was 40 when she died from a heart attack in 1998. Carmen's mother passed away from several brain tumors.

8. During the grand re-naming of Bankersmith, Texas to Bikini, Texas she was inducted to its Bust Of Fame.

It was named after Bikinis Sports Bar & Grill. But the city's name was changed back in 2015.

9. She is well aware and horrified of how many posters of her are in prisons across America.

She was once watching an HBO documentary on maximum-security prisons and saw her poster in quite a number of cells.

10. During a crazy Fourth of July event, she made everyone strip down and jump into the pool...  but she didn't out of revenge.

She stayed in a castle in Hamptons and everyone around her partied WAY too hard. She couldn't sleep because the music was always blaring and so when all the parties were all over she invited them all over and convinced them to go skinny dipping. But at the last second she bailed.
