LOS ANGELES -- MTV reality marriages are looking more and more like "Divorce Court." The latest celebrity schism moved further toward official kaputness Thursday when Carmen Electra filed for divorce from rocker Dave Navarro, according to Superior Court documents.

The former "Baywatch" babe _ real name Tara Patrick _ cited "irreconcilable differences" for the split.

Electra, 34, and former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist Navarro, 39, chronicled their November 2003 nuptials on MTV's "`Til Death Do Us Part: Carmen & Dave."

Electra's publicist, Brit Reece, announced in July that the childless couple were "amicably separating." Court documents indicate they split on July 18.

The dissolution comes on the heels of two other high-profile MTV breakups.

On Tuesday, Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker filed for divorce from ex-beauty queen Shanna Moakler. The two documented their wedding on MTV's "Meet the Barkers."

In late June, singers Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey, who costarred in MTV's "Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica," divorced after three years of marriage.

Navarro currently co-hosts the CBS talent contest "Rock Star: Supernova." Electra just finished filming the movie "I Want Candy," Reece said Thursday.
