What Ever Happened to the Cast of Baywatch?

When Carmen Electra ran down the Baywatch beach in the late 1990s, the show was already a global hit — but she added something new. As lifeguard Lani McKenzie, she brought humor, spark, and an undeniable screen presence. Her confidence and playful attitude made her stand out, even in a cast of icons.

Carmen wasn’t new to the spotlight when she joined the show. Discovered by Prince in her early career, she’d already built a name as a performer and model. Baywatch amplified her fame, making her one of the most recognizable entertainment figures of the late ’90s and early 2000s.
