During the third episode of ESPN’s The Last Dance, Carmen Electra popped up to talk about an infamous trip to Las Vegas she took with former Chicago Bull Dennis Rodman during his time with the team.
After the episode aired, Electra, who is best known for her work on the television series Baywatch, spoke to the Los Angeles Times about some other crazy times she had with the former NBA star. One of the tales the 48-year-old Electra told the paper was about the time Rodman put a blindfold over her eyes and then put her on his motorcycle. When he finally took it off of her face, she was standing on center court at the Bulls’ practice facility.
“It was crazy, like two kids in a candy store. We were eating Popsicles from the fridge and pretty much having sex all over the damn place — in the physical therapy room, in the weight room. Obviously on the court,” she said. “To be honest, I don’t think he’s ever worked out so hard in his life.”
After that, Rodman tried to persuade the Bulls to allow Electra to ride on the team plane to road games. His request was quickly shut down.
“I was in my 20s. I was down for drinking and going to the clubs,” she said. “I ended up becoming one of the boys. He wanted me to go to all the games and everywhere with him. Every time I would leave Chicago, I would be on the plane and I’d start crying because I missed him.”
Rodman and Electra were married in November of 1998 in Las Vegas, but Rodman sought an annulment, claiming he wasn’t of sound mind. The pair was arrested several times during the course of their marriage, which officially ended in 1999.
