CARMEN ELECTRA

Doesn’t that sound a bit weird…A Mouse and a Bird falling in love…Well Carmen Electra’s ex-husband Dave Navarro used to call her Mouse and she used to call him Bird (shouldn’t that be the other way round).

29 After two and a half years of marriage Carmen Electra and Dave Navarro are parting their ways.

He called her “Mouse,” she called him “Bird.” She helped him quit smoking (or tried to, anyway) and he got her initials tattooed on his chest.”

They had met through a mutual friend in 2000, and also suffered a common loss: Navarro’s mother was murdered by a boyfriend in 1983 and Electra’s died of brain cancer in 1998.

“They’re both heartbroken, but they still love each other,” says the source. “The reality of it is that they’re better off as best friends.”

They are splitting amicably and that according to Navarro means,

“… that Carmen and I love each other, we are and always will be best friends,” he writes. “In fact, we are supporting each other through this time. What better way to get through a tough spot than with your best friend?”

So the Mouse and the Bird started off as lovers and ended up as best friends - A tragic end indeed!
