David Hasselhoff had an "
interesting" appearance on the UK's GMTV, leaving many to believe he was drunk:
The show reportedly received hundreds of calls from annoyed viewers, but a spokesman for the network insists the star wasn't snockered. "He was extremely tired because of his massive promotional tour which has been going on for three weeks now," a rep told the London Daily Mail. "But he did everything we wanted him to do. His behavior might not have been 'dead-on' but it was first thing in the morning. We do not believe he was drunk. There was no smell of alcohol."But a source at another show, who asked to remain unnamed, said that when Hasselhoff showed up there, "It was first thing in the morning and he sure smelled like booze to me either that, or he's using some pretty odd-scented aftershave."
How much of an uptight prick must you be to call and complain because The Hoff was a little sauced on TV? In my entire life, I can remember complaining to the cable company exactly once. I had a valid reason though--the Dawson's Creek marathon I was watching was cut short by some bullshit emergency broadcast warning about a "mandatory evacuation" due to an "out of control fire." Whatever.

David Hasselhoff, Pamela Bach, and family
According to TMZ, David Hasselhoff's daughter tried to commit suicide Sunday night:
It happened in the San Fernando Valley, a suburb of Los Angeles, at around 6:30 p.m. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ David called 911 from his home and reported that his 14-year-old daughter had "cut herself."' We're told the LAPD responded and 14-year-old Hayley Hasselhoff was taken to a local hospital for treatment. Her condition is not being disclosed. The Mental Evaluation Unit of LAPD is now handling the case.
Hasselhoff's estranged wife Pamela Bach said that the incident was blown out of proportion and, basically, David's a huge fucking idiot, and possibly a crazy douchebag, albeit with great hair:
Bach, told Entertainment Tonight that Haley "got a scratch from a cat," and that "The Hoff" overreacted to the injury. "David called and I told him about the scratch. He said he was going to call the ambulance. I said 'David, what are you doing?' The next thing I know David called the ambulance. I am floored. Shocked. Last night was so bizarre. I don't know why David did this," Bach is quoted by Entertainment Tonight's website as saying.
Hmmmm�.....don't know who to believe on this one. Since Pamela's never been a TV lifeguard nor owned a pretty kick-ass talking car, I'm gonna go ahead and take The Hoff's side on this one. That's what KITT would have wanted.

David Hasselhoff is claiming that he and Princess Diana became "smitten" with each other after meeting in 1993.
The Hoff, 54, was introduced to the princess at a London charity bash, and was immediately seduced by her warm smile and statuesque figure. The Baywatch hunk is convinced the leggy royal felt the same way. He said: "She was smitten with me since I am so tall. I was smitten with her since she was so tall." But even with the "sparks" between them, The Hoff insists he could sense the toll royal life was taking in the princess. He added: "I felt like she was little girl caught up in this whirlwind. I saw this little girl who just wanted to be a person, but (was) caught in this shell."
Hasselhoff: "She was smitten with me since I am so tall. I was smitten with her since she was so tall." Well said David, well said indeed. Cicero himself couldn't have delivered a finer sentence. I think the time has come for David Hasselhoff--orator, statesman, television lifeguard. Why hasn't Congress officially recognized him as a "national treasure?"
