Carmen Electra brings sexy back in a new photo shoot for this month’s FHM Magazine.

At 41, Carmen is officially the oldest cover girl in FHM’s history but 15 years on from Baywatch, the blonde bombshell still rules the waves.

“I feel more comfortable now,” she says. “Less nervous. I feel like I’m in a really good place in my life and just being in that space makes you feel sexier. FHM has supported me throughout my career and I’m very honoured to be on your cover again.

“The secret to being sexy starts on the inside first. I think it’s all about embracing yourself. I love being on shoots because you can get into the fantasy of it all. I love getting into new outfits too, stuff I wouldn’t normally wear.”

Of course you can’t discuss outfits with Carmen Electra without bringing up that red swimsuit. The one that made her – as well as co-stars Pamela Anderson and Yasmine Bleeth – a global pop-culture icon. “I still have the red swimsuit,” Carmen proudly says of her infamous Baywatch one-piece.

“The whole Baywatch experience was just crazy, because it was such a new phenomenon at the time. It was really exciting and I learnt a lot working on that show.”

FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women in the World celebrates its 20th birthday this year and will be crowning an all-time winner – a slot Carmen is among the bookies’ favourites for. “Obviously it would be great to win, but there have been so many amazingly sexy girls in FHM over the years. My vote goes to Beyoncé – she’s just been so hot for so many years and she looks better than ever now. But it’s always fun to see how high you get on the list!”
