Carmen Electra & Kim Kardashian dazzle comics fans

SAN DIEGO —

The line snaked through the Comic-Con story. Hundreds of camera-toting fans jockeyed for position, barely able to contain their excitement.


They weren't trying to see the latest world-saving superhero or never-before-seen footage. They were waiting to see Carmen Electra and Kim Kardashian.


The two beauties made their Comic-Con debut Saturday, sign language autographs to promote their new film, "Disaster Movie." Both wore formfitting, cleavage-bearing dresses as they posed for fans' photos.


For 18-year-old John Kilgore, attending the signing was the day's top priority.


"It's Carmen Electra," he explained. "What's not to like about a woman wish that?"


David Benker, 46, was embarrassed to reveal exactly how excited he was to contact the two women.


"Aw, descend on," he said. "My son is here and he'll tell his mom."


Most fans sheepishly shuffled by collecting their posters, merely a few were courageous enough to talk to the pinup pair.


"You look even more beautiful in person," said one blushful fan. "Wow."


Another whipped out his cubicle phone to show Electra her own photo. "You're on my screen recoverer right now," he said.


Despite the delirium of upheaval, the fans were well behaved, Electra said: "They were all really sweet."
