Carmen Electra is sharing some of her secrets on how a woman can attract a man.
First, be prepared. One way, Electra, 36, tells Cosmopolitan for its June issue, is to keep a "sexiness kit" within easy reach in the car or at work.
Contained therein: "Perfume, lip gloss, and a pair of heels" to show off the legs – to say nothing of an air of confidence. Her personal role model, Electra reveals: Ann-Margret, as she was in the 1962 movie Bye Bye Birdie.
In the same vein, Electra instructs, "Being flirty is a way of letting a guy know you're interested without making a fool of yourself."
Eye contact is key, as is touching – even if it's just removing a piece of lint off his clothing.
As for your own clothing, "Take a chance," she advises – and don't be afraid to stand out from the crowd.

Paste magazine has the lovely and off the market Scarlett Johansson as their cover girl. The magazine got right down to the real talk and asked the gorgeous actress about her professional and personal influences. Scarlett reveals that she feels like she has five dads: Woody Allen, Bill Murray, Tom Waits, Barack Obama and Bob Dylan. According to the mag Scarlett was most passionate and animated while she spoke of Barack. Here's what she had to say:
On Bill:
“It was difficult working on that film. First of all, I was 17, and I was going through my own shit—graduating from high school and figuring out what I wanted, what was important to me, finding my independence. I was in Tokyo, which was totally foreign to me, and I was working insane hours. It wasn’t like Bill and I had so much in common that we could have this great personal relationship. We were at totally different stages in our lives, and I don’t think he was necessarily so fascinated by what I was going through. But we were fortunate that we had a lot of chemistry between us.”
On Woody:
“He’s very modern in his way of thinking and has a great enthusiasm, a hunger for what he does. I think part of that is nervousness about the passing of time, a sense that this life is not enough. He’s just so full of ideas, and it’s inspiring to see somebody who’s in the autumn of his life but hasn’t lost any of the passion for storytelling. We talk a lot about relationships, whether it’s people that are together intimately, or friends, whatever—how people are with one another. He’s fascinated by human nature, and so am I.”
On Tom:
“At first it was like, ‘What this weird music that your dad listens to?’ But Tom Waits’ music somehow oddly appeals to a kid because records like Small Change have that circusy, carnival-act vibe. The songs are very cinematic. I think as a kid I was attracted to that in the same way I loved “Being For The Benefit of Mr. Kite!”—one of my favorite Beatles songs. It really lets a kid’s imagination take flight.”
On Barrack:
“It’s been so exciting to get out there and talk to kids—and I say ‘kids’ meaning my peers—about why I appreciate Barack. He’s confronting health-care issues that affect young people. You know, most of my friends don’t have insurance. They’re working as photo assistants and stuff like that. These kids on the campaign trail asking questions, they are so well-informed. They’re asking really specific policy questions. It impacts whether they decide to vote for Clinton or Obama, or decide to register as independent or support McCain. They have real concerns, and they want answers. I love that part of it. So that’s a whole other aspect of this life that’s been fun and inspiring.”
On Bob:
“I’ve been fortunate enough to never be the biggest media sensation. I’ll do anything to avoid it. It’s so gross—that whole tabloid shit is disgusting and awful. And I feel bad because sometimes people don’t court it and they get it, and you don’t know why. People are interested in them. Maybe they’ve become America’s sweetheart at some time, and they have their personal life, but then people get hungry for that, too. If you have somebody waiting outside your house for 32 hours, it doesn’t matter how many days you’ve clocked in on the movie-star meter. You’re still a person living your life. I can understand how that must have been for Dylan, who’s such an icon. I’ve been fortunate enough to mostly come out unscathed.”

Miley Cyrus has come to the defence of Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears - insisting it's "normal" for young stars to run wild.
The 15-year-old Hannah Montana star, who has come under fire for a set of racy photos published in Vanity Fair last month (Apr08), is adamant the pair have "good hearts".
Miley Cyrus says, "Everyone has their time. And I think most 21- to 25-year-olds go through this kind of thing. Basically, they're being normal 21-year-olds, especially Lindsay (Lohan). I mean, most of that's pretty normal. If you went to most high schools, I could point out Britneys (Spears) and Lindsays.
"I guess that's why I'm so adamant about the Britneys and Lindsays and whatever, because I know those people and I know they have good hearts and they're just struggling."

Representatives for Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson have denied that the couple are engaged.
'Fool's Gold' star Hudson sparked rumours of an engagement after she was spotted wearing a diamond ring on her wedding finger outside a restaurant in Boston last week.
The News of the World quoted a source as saying: "Kate supported Owen during his low patch and that proved to him she's the woman he wants to be with for ever. The engagement is a natural step for them both."
However, Hudson's representatives have been quick to deny the story stating that the ring was merely a prop for a movie the divorced star is filming. Her representative told OK! Magazine: "She's filming a movie called 'Bride Wars'! She is not engaged."
A representative for Wilson also denied the rumours.
The Hollywood couple met on the set of 'You, Me and Dupree' in 2006 and were romantically linked later that year, after Hudson split from her husband of six years, Black Crowes star Chris Robinson.
Hudson and Wilson parted ways last June but in recent months the couple have reunited and were spotted with Wilson's parents on Hudson's 29th birthday last month.
