Tara Leigh Patrick (born April 20, 1972), known professionally as Carmen Electra,[1][2] is an American actress, model, singer, and media personality.
During this time, Electra had been dating NBA star Dennis Rodman. She and Rodman wed in November 1998 at Little Chapel of the Flowers in Las Vegas, Nevada.[21][22] Nine days later, Rodman filed for annulment, claiming he was of "unsound mind" when the pair wed.[23][24] Electra explained, "It's easy to get caught up in a moment. You think it's romantic, but then you realize, God, we did it in Vegas? It's like getting a cheeseburger at a fast-food restaurant."[9] The couple reconciled and celebrated New Year's Eve together, but four months later they mutually agreed to end their marriage in April 1999 under "amicable circumstances".[9][25]
In November 1999, Electra and Rodman were arrested for misdemeanor battery after police were notified of a domestic dispute at a Miami Beach hotel.[26] They were released on $2,500 bail each and ordered to stay away from each other.[27] The charges were eventually dropped.[28]
Five years later, Electra gave an interview to Glamour in which she admitted that she married Rodman in 1998 in direct response to the numbing emotional pain of having lost both her mother and sister:
