Just How Much Do You Love Carmen... Semi-Naked?

This is what I'm talking about when I say 'Playboy' material! Sure, she might not be the smartest human being on this planet, or the best actress in Hollywood or the woman with the most accomplishments to list in her resume but everybody loves a bit of Carmen once in a while...

Speaking of resume, the former siren who trained in running on the beach in a skimpy bathing suit better than anyone else in 'Baywatch' history (Pamela Anderson not included), is not doing so good lately. I mean, her latest flick, 'Epic Movie' was such a bomb that not even her graceful presence could save it from certain death. As for 'I Want Candy', nothing was heard in quite a while about it so I guess it's safe to assume that too failed to make any waves.

But Carmen will not be put down by such insignificant things - after all, her entire acting career consists of either parodies (successful at the box-office but with zero required talent) or of major flops. Oh, and let's not forget her erotic movies and fitness video tapes... Anyways, Carmen is still one of those adorable presences whenever she comes out or when she appears in some magazine or another.

For some unexplainable reason, her popularity has increased with the years, contrary to what happened to Pamela Anderson, the woman considered for a long time Carmen's rival in terms of sex appeal. This is why we still appreciate the fact that Miss Electra keeps doing sexy photo shoots and popping up at all social events (music or movie-oriented - it's all the same to her), even when it's obvious that she has no place there. But you'll never hear anybody say 'What was Carmen doing at the MTV Awards?' like they say about Paris Hilton.

The answer is simple: Carmen is hot! Plus, she's never off-line and she knows too well her place. It's like she's aware of the fact that she shows up in places where she doesn't belong, at the same time, knowing that her good looks and charming smile will get her off the hook once more. Here I go, shooting my mouth off, when obviously all you want to do is look at the pretty pictures. All this digression was not purposeless, by the way: I was trying to say that, even if her acting career sucks, Carmen can always land a model for a men's magazine... or sell a slimming pill... or a book... or something.

Below are the shots from this issue of 'FHM'. Needless to say, enjoy!
