Carmen Electra has hinted she had sex with Simon Cowell. The former 'Baywatch' actress - who split from fiance Rob Patterson in May - was romantically linked with the music mogul in September and though she claimed to be "single" and just "friends" with 'The X Factor' star, she went on to suggest their friendship went further. Asked if they had kissed, she giggled and said: "Maybe." Further pressed on the matter by 'Access Hollywood', she was then asked if there had been any "horizontal time". Carmen again laughed and said "maybe". She added: "He's so cute. He's adorable, he's actually a sweetheart. I really like him, I think he's very cool." The 40-year-old brunette beauty first met Simon when she was a guest judge on his UK show 'Britain's Got Talent' and she says they have been enjoying hanging out in Los Angeles together. She said: "We started to hang out, we've become friends, I think he's a great guy." Simon and Carmen were seen enjoying a flirtatious dinner at Los Angeles restaurant Cecconi's in September. An onlooker said at the time: "They were getting very cosy. They were holding hands and staring into each other's eyes - and then they started making out.” We can imagine it looked like two old turkeys pecking at each other.
