carmen electra fame

Carmen Electra didn't have to watch any adult movies to research her porn star role in new movie 'I Want Candy' - because she has seen enough already!

The sexy star plays a top adult movie actress called Candy Fiveways in the new British comedy - which tells the story of two wannabe porn directors - and had no problem relating to the role because she is already a porn connoisseur.

Speaking at the London premiere of the film last night (20.03.07), Carmen told BANG Showbiz: "I didn't really need to do any research for the part, like watch lots of porn films. I've already seen enough!"

The 34-year-old model-and-actress didn't have to audition for the part of Candy, as director Stephen Surjik had seen Carmen nude in Playboy, and knew she was "perfect for the part".

Carmen - who shot to fame in hit TV series 'Baywatch' - was a member of The Pussycat Dolls when the glamorous group was a dance troupe.

The star also has her own range of raunchy fitness DVDs, 'Carmen Electra Aerobic Striptease', which combines classic striptease with a workout.

Her book, 'How To Be Sexy', is due out in May.

Carmen said: "The book has all sorts of tips, about make-up, clothes, body language. But my number one tip for any woman would be dress up in sexy lingerie!"
