Carmen Electra keeps 100 pairs of stilettos in wine closet of LA home

Beauty queen Carmen Electra hasn’t been storing wine bottles in her 400-bottle wine closet.

The iconic “Baywatch” star, 49, displays about 100 pairs of shoes in her wine closet — giving her $2.79 million LA real-estate listing a glam touch. The five-bedroom, five-bathroom home was listed for $2.95 million last month before receiving a small price cut today, according to Realtor.com

“Not too long ago I moved into this house. I had to come up with something creative for this wine cellar. I don’t really drink wine, so I decided to make it sort of a shoe museum,” the “Scary Movie” actress, whose real name is Tara Leigh Patrick, told Vogue during a 2017 tour of her closet

The shoes on display include red platforms, strappy sandals, blue fringe, orange velvet, bright pink stunners and patterned floral heels. They hang on the metal displays between the heel and the arch.
