I can’t help but root for the Hoff. Maybe I’m just buying the hype. Or, I’ve simply watched too many Baywatch episodes from my childhood. Whatever the cause, I’m happy to hear him talking about the now infamous video that was leaked to the media of him drunk and eating a hamburger, while lying on the floor shirtless and in jeans. Filmed by his 17-year-old daughter, David was shown the video in order to give him a wake-up call about his drinking and according to Hasselhoff, it worked, and brought him “closure” to that difficult chapter of his life.

“It was really nonsensical and none of that needed to happen. But in the end, you know, I tried to find a reason for it all and I found that reason. And that reason was that everything had to come to some sort of closure to move on. That has helped.”

I think the next logical step would be a reality show. Come on, David. Do it. Do it. DO IT. Sorry, that’s just me trying to hypnotize him.
