Carmen Electra got emotional while revisiting the early years of her career, including iconic Baywatch and Singled Out moments, in a new interview with Entertainment Tonight. The trip down memory lane also brought back memories of Prince, who she says encouraged her to change her name and played a major role in her early rise.

Electra reflected on how difficult those early days were, saying she was “almost kind of homeless” in Los Angeles while trying to make it in the entertainment industry. She said Prince believed in her before her big breakout and that his guidance helped shape the person and performer she became.

The interview shows how much those moments still mean to her, especially as she looks back on a career that has included music, acting, modeling, and recent work on Dear Killer Nannies. For fans, it was a reminder that behind the glamorous image, Electra’s path was built on struggle, reinvention, and support from one of music’s biggest legends.
