Chris Rock and Wife Announce Impending Divorce - He's Dating Rosario Dawson?

Posted in: , ,

Chris Rock and wife, Malaak Compton-Rock, have just announced that they are divorcing after almost 20 years of marriage. Such sad news for the holiday season that should be all about love and family, right? And I was just liking Chris Rock more and more after his recent interviews and Top Five movie. And to think he might be dating Rosario Dawson, his co-star in the movie?

Chris Rock and his wife got married in 1996 and have two daughters—Lola Simon, 12, and Zahra Savannah, 10. There were rumors the couple were about to divorce in 2010, which they both denied, but this time both Rock and Compton-Rock have released statements confirming their split.

Posted in: ,

49-year-old comedian Chris Rock continues to say it as it is. After a recent SNL skit on 9/11 that went viral, and in the run-up to his new movie Top Five, Chris Rock has an interview in the New York Magazine, Vulture. There he speaks on topics ranging from race relations in America, the recent rape allegations against Bill Cosby, and his thoughts on female comedians.

Apart from politics, Chris Rock also referenced other comedians. He said Bill Cosby was among the few other comedians who were "disdainful" to him when he was first starting out in his career early on, but adds that "he turned pretty quick."

Did anyone watch Saturday Night Live last night? I didn't but I've just seen the clip of comedian Chris Rock's monologue on the show and while I did find some parts funny and apt, I do agree with some of uproar that he was pushing the envelope when it comes to being politically incorrect in his comedy.
