Carmen Electra made a large life change this previous week — submitting to ditch her beginning title to formally go by her long-known stage title … and now we all know precisely why.
Sources near the “Baywatch” star inform TMZ … there’s actually no massive motive behind the choice — we’re advised it is simply one thing she’s been fascinated with for some time and eventually took the plunge, since there is no higher time than the New 12 months to start out recent.
We should always be aware, she hasn’t passed by her beginning title — Tara Leigh Patrick — in many years.
TMZ obtained the authorized docs earlier this week … revealing she needs to formally change her name to “Carmen Electra” … so seems like that is formally goodbye to Tara! It is also simply formalizing what everybody has identified her as for many years now.
Enjoyable truth — CE did not give you the zippy stage title herself — it was truly birthed on account of the late icon, Prince … who bestowed the title upon her when she auditioned to be a part of an all-girl group he was assembling within the early ’90s.
Sadly, she did not make the minimize … however she went on to make a splash on TV and elsewhere, and he or she stored the cool moniker for herself.
Additionally … she by no means assumed the names of her hubbies whereas she was married, so her turning into Carmen Electra in court docket is only a no-brainer. No higher time for change than the current!
