Scary Movie's Carmen Electra says her dog is giving her serious competition in fashion department

Scary Movie's Carmen Electra

Carmen Electra's dog is giving the star serious competition when it comes to fashion.

The Baywatch star set up an Instagram page for her poodle, Bambi Lion Electra, in February, and since then, the pooch has been gifted designer brand outfits and accessories.

Speaking of her "everything", Carmen, 54, told People: "She's so smart, and she's so cute, and everyone's been so generous. They're sending her Gucci outfits, Louis Vuitton bags, so she's got a better wardrobe than I do at this point.

"I named her Bambi, and her middle name is Lion because she's a Leo. So she's Bambi Lion Electra, and she has her own IG page."

Since the blonde beauty introduced her Instagram followers to Bambi in February, Carmen has posted videos of her showing off the dog’s many clothes.

Carmen adores her poodle so much that she is considering getting more.

The model said: "It's just cute and I'm already going to get another one. I'm obsessed. So I think pretty soon I'll have a poodle posse. I want one in every colour. I love poodles. She's so sweet. She doesn't bark. She hardly ever barks. She sleeps throughout the night. She's such a good girl."

Elsewhere, Carmen recently revealed that Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans "fought" for her to be in the 2000 film, despite people around him having doubts that she could pull off the role of Drew Decker.

Earlier this month, Carmen told People: "There's so many movies and so many different genres, I knew I wanted to be a part of Scary Movie 1. I really wanted it, but I think that back then, they weren't sure that ... I know Keenen really wanted me in the movie, but no one else was sure I could do it.

"And so they had other people come in and shoot for it.

"He goes, 'No.' He fought for me. So I love you, Keenen, forever, for pulling for me and changing my career, because being in Scary Movie really did."

Keenen, 68, co-wrote 2026's Scary Movie 6 alongside Shawn Wayans, 55, Marlon Wayans, 53, Craig Wayans, 50, and Rick Alvarez.

And Carmen - who makes a cameo appearance in the new flick - is thrilled that the Wayans brothers have returned to helm the franchise, after they had no involvement past 2001's Scary Movie 2.

She said: "I was in the first Scary Movie and [Scary Movie 4], and I think we all could feel the difference without the Wayans not being involved in the fourth one. So it's just so cool, and it gets no better than working with the Wayans. It's always fun. It's a good time."
