Carmen Electra has confirmed that she won't be appearing in the forthcoming Baywatch movie.
The actress admitted that she didn't enjoy her time playing Lani McKenzie on the classic show and, unlike Pamela Anderson, has not been approached to make a cameo appearance in the film.
"Frankly, I didn't really enjoy being on Baywatch. I wasn't the greatest swimmer in the world," Carmen explained. "It wasn't easy trying to look good with the water getting in my eyes and up my nose. And I didn't even get my own swimsuit for ages. But when I did, I had it framed.
"I'm out. I've only heard about it through the press and nobody has contacted me to be in the film. I really enjoyed the reunion show we did though - it was fun to meet all the team again."
