Carmen Electra Promo

I remember seeing a Carmen Electra promo YEARS ago. I'm thinking it may have been on the Gett Off VHS tape.

It was basically a promo for her upcoming album, maybe, and it had words on the screen. I really it may have said "She will make you come."

Does anyone else remember this? What's it called and is there anywhere online I can find it?

Exerpt:

SUNDAY, JANUARY 15, 1995 / SAINT PAUL PIONEER PRESS
PURPLE DRAIN


ROB BORM'S PITCH to Prince was: "Hire me. I'm young. I'm hungry. I can make you some money."

Three years later, Borm's association with Paisley led to the end of his business.

Borm says the story of his association with Paisley Park is a rags-to-riches-to-rags story. He had just launched his film production company, Point of View Films, in 1991 when Prince gave him a break, hiring him to produce a video for the hit song "Gett Off."

The instructions from Paisley Park Enterprises President Gilbert Davison were vague: "Prince wants his yellow suit in it, and he wants his yellow car in it, and he wants it to look a little like 'Caligula,'" a reference to the 1980 film that oozed Roman decadence.

Borm crunched a careful budget that would bring in the two-day shoot well within the $220,000 allocated by Warner Bros. for the project. According to Borm, Davison barely looked at it, saying: "Oh, by the way, there's probably going to be quite a few changes to the concept."

By the time it was completed, the "Gett Off" video had cost $1.3 million over seven days -- the overruns owing to Prince's desire to keep shooting on the surreal fall-of-Rome set Borm created, stocked at Prince's request with erotic imagery and women recruited from a local strip club.

When Paisley was slow to pay the million-dollar overrun, Borm began a two-year high-wire act with his own creditors, as he produced 47 more music videos without the aid of a budget.

The fast and loose spending caught up with him two years later. In summer 1993, Borm was preparing to film shows in London for Prince. But back home, Paisley was $450,000 behind on its payments to him, and Borm's creditors were getting antsy.

He said he asked Prince about it before a London concert and got a mild scolding: "You should know better than to talk to me about money, especially before a gig." Subsequent lectures were delivered by Prince's attorney and business manager. But the payment was never made.

That's when Borm pulled his crew off the tour and returned to the United States on the advice of an attorney. It took 10 months of rugged negotiations and threatened lawsuits before Borm reached a settlement of $315,000.

But the money wasn't enough to satisfy Borm's creditors. Since Paisley represented 90 percent of his work, his company was essentially doomed: Live by Prince, die by Prince. Point of View Films declared bankruptcy with about $5,900 in assets and $135,000 in debts.

eek I don't remember it saying that! I haven't watched it in years and don't feel like digging it out. I remember "she is the scariest female on the planet, she is inevitable".

Yeah, I don't remember that either. Scariest female yes, and inevitable, yes. But not the "come" comment.

The GoGo Dancer video, from what I remember, was her in high school at the beginning and ending up in a strip club on a stripper pole and dancing around. I did like Get On Up the song and video much better.

the actual quote was "This is our future. She is the scariest female on the planet. She is inevitable. She is addictive. To listen to her music on a loud system is to come a thousand times..."
