Carmen Electra In New FHM Cover Shoot

Carmen Electra has become the oldest cover girl in the history of FHM magazine, gracing the front page at the not-so-tender age of 41.

And the former Baywatch star has been spilling her secrets on how to stay sexy after the big four-O.

"I feel more comfortable now, 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."

Whether that means that Carms doesn't usually wear the fifties-style undies she models in the FHM shoot, we are not sure.

FHM is set to crown an all-time winner of its 100 sexiest women in the world lists this year, marking the 20th anniversary.

And Carmen is apparently among the favourites to win, but she has other ideas.

"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!"
