Just before her recent announcement that she would be “dropping a series of digital art pieces” that includes a one-off NFT (Non-Fungible Token) of her world-famous cleavage being offered up for sale as “real estate” that allows the auction winner to use the busty digital image as a canvas for art, advertising, company logos and etc., veteran entertainment industry bombshell Carmen Electra put some actual real estate, her home in the Mount Olympus neighborhood above L.A.’s Laurel Canyon, up for grabs at $2.95 million, a tidy profit on the just over $2.1 million she paid a bit more than five years ago.
The singer, dancer and glamour model, who made her television debut on “Soul Train” before she met and made some music in the early 1990s with Prince — it was the late, great purple one who tagged her with her memorable stage name, is best known for her skimpy red carpet outfits, her five Playboy covers, her barely dressed role on “Baywatch,” her tumultuous short-lived late 1998 marriage to Dennis Rodman and her 2.5-year mid-Aughts marriage to Dave Navarro, lead guitarist of the rock band Jane’s Addiction.
Along the way, the sultry pop culture phenom, now 49, wrote the book on how to be sexy — it’s actually called “How to Be Sexy,” performed with the Pussycat Dolls, released a couple handfuls of not very successful singles, popped up in a couple of installments of the “Scary Movie” franchise, hosted the first and only season of the relationship-oriented reality series “Ex Isle,” and was a contestant on “Worst Cooks in America.” There is almost nothing, it seems, Electra won’t do to earn a showbiz buck.
