Carmen Electra: I used to beat up boys

Baywatch babe used martial arts on blokes she fancied

Saturday, 24 March 2007

Carmen Electra didn't leave love letters in the lockers of classmates she had the hots for – she attacked them instead.

‘At school I beat up boys I fancied,’ says the 34-year-old. 'My mum had a third-degree black belt in ju-jitsu and one of my brothers was really good at karate.

‘There were lots of guys who got on the wrong side of me because I had a crush on them, but it was easier to beat them up than tell them.’

Carmen – who shot to fame as Baywatch lifeguard Lani McKenzie – reckons she can still take care of herself.

‘My finishing move was to throw them over my shoulder and I can still do that today,’ she tells Night & Day magazine.

Wonder if she ever tried tackling The Hoff…
