LOS ANGELES - Pamela Anderson has filed papers, asking a Los Angeles Superior Court judge to annul her marriage to former Paris Hilton sex-tape co-star, Rick Salomon.

In the filing, obtained by Access Hollywood, Anderson is seeking the annulment after only two months of marriage, citing "fraud” as the reason for the split.

Coincidentally, former Oscar winner Renee Zellweger had her marriage to country superstar Kenny Chesney annulled, also due to “fraud.”

Anderson and Salomon married on Oct. 6, 2007, at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas, where the former “Baywatch” babe has recently been performing alongside magician Hans Klok.

In December, news first surfaced that the couple were headed for divorce court, after Anderson filed a claim for dissolution of marriage and cited “irreconcilable differences.” However, just as quickly as the news happened, Anderson ended the divorce speculation by claiming the two were “working things out,” via a post on her Web site.

During an appearance on the “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” Anderson previously told the talk show host she fell in love with Salomon after they worked out a deal over a $250,000 gambling debt the actress had amassed.

“I paid off a poker debt with sexual favors, and I fell in love,” Anderson said. “It’s so romantic.”
