Hundreds of fans joined by a media scrum of TV cameras, reporters and photographers mobbed sex bombshell Carmen Electra when she made her red carpet entrance last night at MGM’s Crazy Horse Paris theater. The pint-sized powerhouse packed a punch with her appearance in pink!

Six of the 12 Crazy Horse Paris dancers flanked Carmen as she posed on the red carpet and talked with us. She told me she’d felt completely free when she stripped and went topless for her closing number as the centerpiece of the lineup.

Carmen danced solo in two numbers. She began in a nylon and bustier number atop a heart-shaped pair of lips couch for the Lesson in Eroticism and wrapped herself in an amazing number of contortionist positions to accent her legs and that bountiful bust line. She kept her star-shaped pasties on but showed sufficient cleavage to send the temperatures rising.

In her second number, she was barefoot for the Chain Gang, behind-bars, animalistic number, and her bra came apart to expose one full breast. “I wanted to do it in an order, so you got a little more each time,” she laughed with me. Click HERE for our full interview earlier in the week!

For the finale, with all 12 girls onstage, Carmen went totally topless and was covered elsewhere by little more than a G-string of diamonds! Boyfriend Rob Patterson, former Korn guitarist, told me after the show: “She was great. This was her dream, and she nailed it perfectly.”

Carmen told me: “You get to see the two sides of my personality, and I am having the best of times. The girls are wonderful to work with. The reaction from the audience is sensational. I wasn’t going to go all the way when we started talking about this, but I decided to go for it. I didn’t want to cheat anybody who came to see me.”

Regular Vegas DeLuxe reader Richard Corey recorded Carmen's arrival and my interview with her on the red carpet and uploaded his videos to YouTube:

She won loud cheers and applause throughout her three onstage appearances. “I’d like nothing more than to stay longer,” she told me of her six-night, 10-show run through Tuesday. “I’d really like to stay here, but for now I can only hope they invite me back for another visit.” A Cirque official from Paris reliably told me that it is a distinct possibility later this year.

So you know I’ve got a fair bit of cheek when it comes to questions. I had to ask Carmen what she had left over from her onstage striptease routines when she went upstairs to her boyfriend after the first-night soft opening, which fellow Playboy cover girl Holly Madison had attended.

“You won’t believe this, Robin,” she told me. “I’m supposedly the sex goddess here, right, but he was out doing a guest DJ set until 4 in the morning, so I just went to sleep! We’ll make up for it this weekend!”
