After a quickie wedding just two months ago, Canadian actress Pamela Anderson is showing she can be just as quick in pursuing a divorce.
The Ladysmith, B.C.-born actress and former Baywatch star filed for divorce from her latest husband Rick Salomon in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Friday.

The suit cites irreconcilable differences. It is believed the couple separated earlier this month.
However, in typical Anderson fashion, the actress posted a brief note on her website Monday that seemed to possibly denote a change of heart: "We're working things out," she wrote.
Salomon, a 38-year-old professional poker player best known as the infamous cameraman/ex-boyfriend behind the Paris Hilton sex tape, married Anderson in Las Vegas in October.
The duo held their wedding ceremony at the Mirage Hotel and Casino during a break between two performances of Hans Klok's The Beauty of Magic, in which Anderson was serving as magician Klok's assistant.
The marriage was the second in two years for the 40-year-old Anderson. In 2006, she married singer Kid Rock and then divorced him after just four months.
Anderson has two sons from her previous marriage to Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee, whom she separated from and reconciled with several times. They finally divorced in 1998 after three years of marriage.
Her exes, Rock and Lee, got into an off-camera scuffle at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas in September, while Anderson was on stage.
Anderson, whose credits include TV shows Home Improvement, Baywatch, V.I.P. and Stacked, is also known as Canada's "Centennial baby," as she was the first baby born on July 1, 1967. She was also inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame in 2006.
