The Chicago Bulls were on top of the basketball world in 1998. They ended up winning another championship and completing their second three-peat in 10 years, which was incredible.

Dennis Rodman was a big part of the team. However, the NBA championship wasn't the only ring that he received that year. In 1998, the Bulls forward married Carmen Electra.

This was a big year for the popular model as well. She was cast as Lani McKenzie in "Baywatch," which was a huge move for her career. Despite only being in the series for a year, Electra made the most out of it and gained a lot of fame.

Dennis and Carmen met in 1998 and had a lot of fun together. They decided to tie the knot in November, a few months after Rodman won his fifth championship ring. Unfortunately for them, their marriage was short-lived.

Just nine days after getting married to the popular model, Rodman filed for an annulment of the marriage. The two tried to make the marriage work, but it ended up falling apart.

This was not surprising considering that Electra dealt with a lot of personal issues. A few months before the marriage, her mother and sister died, only two weeks within each other.

Marrying Dennis Rodman was most likely an impulse decision. The model eventually filed for divorce, and it was finalized shortly after.
