Welcome to another edition of my “Celebrities Who Released Music” series which covers celebrities (such as actors, actresses, models, etc) who released music that you might not even know existed. Today, this entry covers model/actress/TV personality Carmen Electra.
Before she became popular on the hit TV show, “Baywatch” and well-known for her marriage to former NBA player, Dennis Rodman, Carmen started her career as a singer & dancer, which first began in 1990. In 1991, she moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota where she met Prince and signed a record deal with Prince’s Paisley Park Records label.
In February of 1993, Carmen released her self-titled album which was designed by Prince to promote her as his latest protégée at the time as a sexy female rapper.
However, the album was not well-received, failing to make any album charts at all. The only song from the album to make the charts was “Everybody Get On Up” which peaked at #33 on Billboard’s Hot Dance Music\Club Play chart.
Two more songs from the album, “Fantastia Erotica” & “Go Go Dancer” were released as singles, but didn’t make the charts at all.
In interviews, Carmen pointed out that during the time of her album’s release, Prince was having issues with Paisley Park Records, which could’ve possibly contributed to its failure on the charts. After her recording career came to a pause, she occasionally performed with The Pussycat Dolls as a dancer.
Although Carmen resumed her recording career in the 2010s, releasing four singles: “I Like It Loud” (in 2012) & “Bigger Dick” (in 2013), “WERQ” & “Around the World” (both in 2014), she has not released a new studio album since the ’90s.
