Carmen Electra gets this party started on the poles: The diminutive actress, who stopped the crowd in a structured white dress she bought in New York, and bling-adorned beret, said she hoped to show off her pole-dancing moves at the coffee giant's after party at The Trust last night. Electra, who almost pioneered the pole-dancing revolution with her sexy workout videos, said she thought Aussie fillies exuded sexiness coupled with class and sophistication.

Electra enjoyed the attention as people crowded into the Lavazza tent to watch her bump and grind in a roped-off VIP area to tracks from the DJ Spindarella. "I love dancing," Electra cooed. "I know it is all about Ladies' Day, but the men are doing pretty well in the fashion stakes from my point of view."Start of sidebar. Skip to end of sidebar. End of sidebar.

"Maybe I have a man," she coyly said. Electra, who was previously married to muso Dave Navarro, was sporting the engagement ring given to her two years ago by rocker Rob Patterson. Later in the afternoon, the former Playboy babe decided to go for a wander around the Birdcage. Surrounded by her seven-strong entourage, Electra tottered carefully on her towering black heels, grabbing a yellow rose off a nearby bush and posing for snaps.
