PHOTOS: Carmen Electra Takes It Off at Crazy Horse Paris

I saw Carmen Electra topless — no pasties — at “MGM Grand’s Crazy Horse Paris” last night. A lot of us did. And it looks like she’ll be baring it all (up top) for the rest of her guest run there, two shows a night through Monday.

“In rehearsals,” she told Norm Clarke and me beforehand, “I started off wearing a full bra and full panties, with full stockings. And I like that look. But I felt in a way, if I stayed in that look for the whole show, it would cheat the audience a little bit. And yeah, I want everyone to have a good time.”

Going without pasties was easier and less nerve-racking than she thought: “I decided I wanted to go for it.” But she’s not planning to lose the undies: “Bottomless? No.”

As I’ve said for a long while, “Crazy Horse Paris” is one of the best shows in town, certainly the best of its topless kind. Carmen was great, truly. She has a serious dance background. It’s pretty impressive that she just jumped in, rehearsed for a week in a show whose ballet-background dancers usually take forever to get approved into the show, and to kick, gyrate and get on tippy toe on her made-for-her Christian Lobaton shoes so well in poses. Read her earlier interview with me. If you’re interested, tickets cost $75-$125.

Check these photos by Denise Truscello. The last pic is of Carmen and her man, guitarist Rob Patterson.

I have not seen Carmen's show, but I will do so soon.She looks like an incredible performer. However she is just as beautiful with her clothes on. Been a fan of hers for some time and can't wait to see the show.

She walked right next to me in San Diego's Mission beach... She was checking out my 18 yr old rock hard body... I didn't know who she was until my buddy told me. MTV was filming her. =)
