Chris Rock

Chris Rock has joked you can either be "married and bored, or single and lonely," and it appears he's opted to try the solitary life.

TMZ.com says the comedian, 41, has started divorce proceedings against Malaak Compton-Rock, with whom he has two daughters, Lola, 4, and Zahra, 2, and has tapped a "high-powered" legal pit bull to represent him.

The timing of the supposed split is interesting, coming as it does just three weeks before the couple's 10th wedding anniversary, a milestone date that can sometimes have a major impact on how much moolah is shelled out in the settlement.

For now, Rock's rep remains mum on the split rumblings, telling TMZ, "I cannot comment at this time."

It's a good bet the multitasking star, who hits screens in March in the unfortunately titled "I Think I Love My Wife" (he also co-wrote and directed the flick), will mine his purported marital woes for his stand-up act, just as he did when he settled into domestic bliss.

"Fellas, when you wake up in the morning, you should look yourself in the mirror and say, '[Bleep] you.' [Bleep] your hopes, [bleep] your dreams, [bleep] your plans ... [bleep] everything you thought this life was going to bring to you," he ranted during his 2004 comedy special "Never Scared." "Now let's go out there and try to make this b***h happy.'"

Malaak, a former public relations exec at UNICEF, is the founder of Styleworks, a nonprofit group that provides makeovers and advice to women moving from public assistance into the business world.
