Carmen Brings Competition to 'Summerland'
December 21, 2004

Look who's kicking up the sand in "Summerland" -- it's one of the original "Baywatch" babes, Carmen Electra, heading to The WB's breakout beach town drama for its second season, starting in January.

"I get to come onto the show and stir things up!" Carmen enthused. "It's always fun to be the bad girl!"

Only "Extra" was on the set when Carmen's character -- a spitfire divorcee -- sweeps into the life of hunky Shawn Christian, AKA Johnny Durant. "Yeah, Carmen stirs it up for Johnny," Shawn told us.

Lori Loughlin, who stars on the show as a single woman raising her late sister's kids, told us that Carmen's five episode appearance is sure to shake things up: "Bring in another woman, now there's competition."

But Carmen insists her character's not really bad -- just misunderstood. "I think I'm just a really sensitive person. And when you're super, super sensitive, you almost have to put a shield up, " Carmen explained. "And I think that sometimes comes off as being sort of a bad girl."

Don't miss bad girl Carmen bringing her sensitivity to the shores of "Summerland," this January on The WB.
