The sex symbol is among a host of celebrities expected in town for the Grand Prix, including home-grown Hollywood star Eric Bana and model Megan Gale.Ticket sales are up on this time last year, with grandstand seat bookings in particular up 20 per cent.

Former Baywatch beauty Carmen Electra showed her trademark dazzling smile when she stepped out on the red carpet for the Music Saves Lives anniversary party in Hollywood last night.

The star wore a super-tight dress to show off her cleavage at the fifth anniversary party of the charity, which aims to persuade gig-goers and music lovers to give blood. The charity also raises money and awareness for the cause in the US and previous supporters have included Katy Perry, who donated a signed guitar to be auctioned off for a fundraiser.

Carmen Electra looked absolutely stunning in a cute mini black dress  and her fabulous blue high heels when arriving at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino to celebrate the Pangaea Nightclub 4th Anniversary.

There nothing sweeter than being on top of your game when your ex-husband is around. I bet Carmen got Dennis Rodman wondering why the heck did they break up!? Carmen and Dennis made such an awkward couple like the beauty and the beast, except he never turned into a beautiful prince.

One os a multiple-tme Grammy winner. The other often appears topless in magazine spreads. One is a globally respected, conservative, innocent, 20-year old recording artist. The other has gotten naked in Playboy many times.

On the surface, Taylor Swift and Carmen Electra have nothing in mind. Then again, on the surface, Tiger Woods didn't seem like the type of guy that would need to read a prepared statement that apologized for his countless transgressions with the opposite sex. It turns out that Taylor and Carmen do have one thing in common: fashion taste. Case in point.

Dave Navarro could really benefit from a crash course in classy behavior. Carmen Electra’s ex-husband — they were married from 2003 to 2007 — recently posted the above photo to Guys With iPhones, a naughty and cleverly titled Web site that features photos of guys posing in front of mirrors with their iPhones (it’s definitely NOT safe for work, so surf at your own risk.) We know Dave and Carmen have been divorced for three years now, and Carmen is happily in a relationship with Rob Patterson, but we still imagine this photo would upset her if she sees it.

Carmen Electra knows that Hollywood can be a fickle place. After all, her quickie Sin City wedding to Dennis Rodman went off the rails after barely two weeks. Her reality show-chronicled union to Dave Navarro lasted longer but eventually met the same end. Still, through the years, and through her ups and downs, there has been one constant for the va-va-voomy bombshell: the unwavering support of designer Rebecca Taylor. At Sunday's afterparty for Taylor's fall collection at New York Fashion Week, Carmen spoke exclusively to Wonderwall about her relationship with the designer, along with her must-have trend for the coming months (hint: it's something often worn by "your mama").

WW: What shows are you most excited to see? CE: Rebecca Taylor! [Points to the Rebecca Taylor tights she's wearing.] Straight off the run[way]! They're so disco, there's a little sparkle and they're so unique and different. It really stood out to me, watching the show and seeing the collection. I wanted the tights. I also loved the layers and dresses and jackets.WW: What parties are you most looking forward to?

CE: Rebecca Taylor! Every season I feel like she really gets it and I love her. She's been very supportive throughout my career, through highs and lows in my career, [and] never, ever turned her back on me. I've gone through hard times, and it really stays with you when people support you throughout your career and your life, and so I'm very happy to be here and I really appreciate that.

Media is invited to the red carpet at AMPM Lounge - the center of the most exciting parties during NBA All-Star week. Celebrities, sports superstars, playmates, VIP guests and renowned DJs are coming together for the ultimate All-Star experience in the ultra-sleek AMPM lounge in the Mosaic building downtown. For details on all events.

For us non-basketball fans, there are finally two celebs coming in for the NBA All-Star Game worth talking about. Can you say Carmen Electra and Holly Madison? Hi-yo! The two famous man-eaters are co-hosting the Playmate Playground NBA All-Star party next Saturday night at AMPM Restaurant and Lounge.

For those without basic cable, Holly is the former No. 1 girlfriend of Hugh Hefner and star of the show The Girls Next Door. The 83-year-old Hef managed to gallantly dodge Holly's many marital hints, and she packed her things and left the mansion. (In December, E! showed a preview episode of the latest Girls Next Door spinoff, Holly's World.)

Clubbing with LeBron

Holly and Carmen's party will be the crescendo of several celeb get-togethers at AMPM.

She selected the two-hour Organic Spa Ritual, followed by a manicure and pedicure in the Vdara health and beauty salon. She hit the intimate Bar Vdara lounge for a pick-me-up to avoid drifting asleep in a totally relaxed state of well-being.
