Basketball star Dennis Rodman, in his new autobiography I Should Be Dead By Now, has revealed that his ex-wife, Carmen Electra, used the 'N' word while having sex with him.

Rodman writes that he was stunned when he heard her utter the N-word and added that though he had sex with a lot of white women, the only time they used racially abusive language was when they were angry with him.

"I was stunned. I mean I've had sex with a lot of white girls and not one white girl has ever called me that unless they were pissed off." Femalefirst quoted his autobiography as stating.

According to Rodman - who was married to the brunette beauty for just eight days in December 1998 - Carmen shouted out: "Take it n****r. Go ahead, take it. This is yours! Yours!" However, Rodman claims he wasn't offended by Carmen's racist bedroom comments, adding: "My marriage was the happiest eight days of my life" He also added that the Playboy model used the language in a manner of joking, and that she has no qualms about having it revealed.

"She's fine with it. She wasn't upset that people may get the wrong idea with her using the 'N' word; it was more of a joke." he added.

The former Chicago Bulls player also alleges Carmen, now married to rocker Dave Navarro, once talked to his bodyguard during a frantic sex session in the backseat of his Bentley car.

Rodman claims the stunning actress said, "George, would you tell Dennis to stop? I'm getting tired", as he made love to her.

Carmen is furious with her ex-husband's allegations and has rubbished the claims, telling America's New York Daily News newspaper: "I am saddened that Dennis felt he had to write a book like this "I think he has me confused with some of the girls he cheated on me with."
