Carmen Electra (36) will pose for a special 55th anniversary issue of Playboy, which will go on sale December 12.

Carmen Electra and Rob Patterson are engaged to be married her rep confirmed. Rob proposed in Las Vegas last weekend, which already make this whole idea sound like it’s doomed. The couple have been dating for less than a year. Rob said:

"He told friends three days ago that he got engaged. The ring is a black diamond set in white diamonds."

See what I mean. Black diamond = doomed. It’s a bad omen.

Carmen’s previous two husbands were Dennis Rodman, and Dave Navarro.

I’m giving this marriage one year tops.

Billionaire Sir Richard Branson launched Virgin America’s three daily flights between San Francisco and Las Vegas yesterday. Richard had his hands all over all the hot female celebrities. He picked up Pamela Anderson and Carmen Electra, but just put his arms around The Hills stars Lauren Conrad and Audrina Patridge, which is like shaking their hand after a date. After all the hottie handling Richard dropped 407 feet off the roof of the Palms in Las Vegas. The wind was really strong so it pushed him into the building bruising his butt and cutting his hand. He limped away from the stunt. It could have been worse. He could have caught his nuts on a rusty nail, or slept with Pamela Anderson, then spent the rest of his life and fortune trying to cure the incurable STDs she gave him.

In sharp contrast to the Carmen Electra photo below, Rosie O’Donnell was snapped on her boat in Florida this weekend with her daughter Chelsea.  This gives new meaning to the term "ocean swell!"  Daring wake boarders and water skiers alike were trying to catch a piece of her wave action.  Shortly after this photo was taken, Rosie had to prove to the Coast Guard that she wasn’t smuggling drugs under her shirt after all.   

Carmen Electra hit the beach over the weekend looking like a 21-year-old co-ed and gave the paparazzi what had to have been their best day in history. I’m guessing the lucky guy in this game of chicken probably won’t forget this day any time soon either. But what’s up with her taste in love interests? First Dennis Rodman then Dave Navarro and, most recently, she’s been rumored to have meandered over to the other team for some dalliances with not-so-young rocker Joan Jett. Who’s next, Courtney Love?
