Carmen Electra And The Men In Her Life

Carmen Electra – actress, dancer, and Playboy model – had been going around, to say the least. Notwithstanding the ending of another failed marriage, let’s take a look into her past relationships – and try to understand what she sees in the men of her life.

She admitted to having a fierce crush on Prince, the music prodigy. In 1992 she was spotted by a talent scout, who landed her an audition with Prince as the audience. Prince was looking to assemble and all-girl rap ensemble for his record label, and though she wasn’t tapped for that group, Prince later on wrote her a song for her demo album, called “Carmen on Top”

It was because of Prince that she got her now-famous name – born Tara Leigh Patrick, she was renamed Carmen Electra because she “looked like a Carmen”, and Electra was later added as her surname in deference to the Greek tragedy heroine.

She had admitted to having a secret passion for Prince – but she never kissed him.

Electra had been romantically involved with B-Real of the Latin rap group Cypress Hill.  She and the rap star appeared on the Howard Stern Show, talking candidly about their love and sex life. Of course, that relationship also ended.

Electra achieved substantial notoriety with her on-off marriage to former NBA basketball player Dennis Rodman from 1998-1999. The wedding took place at Little Chapel of the Flowers in Las Vegas, Nevada, on November 14, 1998. They divorced nearly six months later on April 6, 1999
Electra had a brief affair with her former Baywatch co-star Pamela Anderson’s ex-husband Tommy Lee. She then became involved with singer and rapper Fred Durst, lead singer of the group Limp Bizkit.
In 2001, Dave Navarro met Electra on a blind date. Navarro, former lead guitarist for the rock band Jane’s Addiction and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, admitted to falling in love at first sight with Electra – and she was likewise.

Electra and Navarro chronicled their courtship and the months leading up to their wedding on an MTV reality show called “Til Death Do Us Part: Carmen & Dave” in 2003. The couple culminated the show in their wedding – her second, his third – and reception on November 22, 2003.
Their wedding invitation was a photo of them lying in a morgue. The invitations in platinum and red called for “hot and sexy” attire. Men attired in black greeted the 200 guests who turned up at the St. Regis Hotel in Los Angeles all wearing a red mask covering their faces – in remembrance of one of the couple’s favorite films, Eyes Wide Shut.
The aerobic striptease instructor was married wearing a strapless, beaded Badgley Mischka gown in cream color. The guitarist was wearing a Gucci suit.
The couple announced their separation on July 17, 2006 – their representative confirmed it to Star Magazine. Electra filed for divorce on August 10, 2006.
