David Hasselhoff’s Daughters Are So Totally Screwed

Monday, November 30th, 2009

If ya hadn’t heard, David Hasselhoff is back to drinking (shocker!), and he was rushed to the hospital on Friday with seizures. Because he’s going to die of alcoholism soon. His daughters are devastated, obvi, so their mother, Pamela Bach — who spent the better part of last year ranting about what a horrible and hopeless alcoholic he was — spent some time with them and then went out and got drunk. Because that’s a really great example to set for your daughters, who are basically, at this point, guaranteed a dead father and a drinking problem of their own.

She was pulled over for DUI and blew a .14. It’s her second DUI this year, and, in California, that’s mandatory jail time. She was arrested and released on $15,000 bail, and told TMZ she was headed to an AA meeting, which is perhaps something she should have done before drinking and driving. Also, announcing to TMZ that you’re headed to an AA meeting is one really good way to get photographers to show up and take pictures of you walking into an AA meeting, which is something other people in AA really appreciate and a surefire indicator that you’re taking your drinking problem seriously. In summary: Shut up, Pamela Bach. You suck.

David Hasselhoff Had a Seizure Yesterday, You Guys

David Hasselhoff Suffers From Seizure

Yesterday a very nosy neighbor (that I am sure David Hasselhoff wants to murder today) reported to RadarOnline that the Baywatch hunk of yesteryear was having a seizure in his house:

Hasselhoff’s neighbor Christian (he asked that we not use his last name), told RadarOnline.com that he saw the ambulance arrive at Hasselhoff’s home. “I asked one of the paramedics how David was doing and he told me his eyes were rolling back into his head, he was drooling and that he’d had a seizure.”  Unfortunately, said Christian, “this isn’t the first time this has happened to him.”

According to the story, Hoff is back off the wagon and he’s been taking anti-depressants and medication for epilepsy for some time. The three together? Probably not a great combo. Worst of all? I don’t think the public really knew about these problems and that neighbor and the loose lipped paramedic? Well, they’ve turned this private but not so secret problem in to a headline.

Compare & Contrast: David Hasselhoff & Amy Winehouse

Don't Hassel the Hoff

The Hoff went into rehab earlier this month after two cases of alcohol poisoning and an incident where he tried to punch a doctor that was treating him. Recently, he spoke out about his alcoholism and compared himself to first aid practice mannekin Amy Winhouse.

“The problem that I’ve experienced in my own life and some of the stuff that’s been documented about Amy is a universal problem.
“It’s an illness. You don’t wake up in the morning and decide to have this problem.”

When I think of similarities between the Hoff and the House, I tend to think of creepy, inept fathers and fake breasts, but yeah, alcoholism too. Sure.

In what other ways are David Hasselhoff and Amy Winehouse similar?

It Was a Matter Of Ear, Not Beer

David Hasselhoff quite possibly might have the most optimistic publicist ever.  You’d have to be optimistic to believe that the public would buy this story, buuuuuuut here goes:  The Hoff wasn’t drunk last night; he had an “ear infection”.  Apparently, he’s on medication for his “ear infection” and had a bad reaction to it that caused dizziness and disorientation which mimicked intoxication.

I’m sure he’s telling the truth, because his daughter who called 911 is only 17.  I’ve often become confused between alcohol and Amoxicillin; it’s an easy mistake.  Weirdly, the EMTs that arrived on the scene felt that Hoff’s condition was serious enough to transport him to a local hospital.  You just never realize how dangerous inflamed ear drums can be until something like this happens.

You know, I too had a really bad, uh, “ear infection” once.  As a matter of fact, to this day I can’t even look at a bottle of Sambuca because of how badly I was “infected”.

David will be unavailable for the rest of the week due to his “jury duty” obligations.  Hoff, give your publicist a raise, ‘kay?

Hoff’s On The Sauce

Aw, man.  It seems like our favorite America’s Got Talent judge has fallen Hoff the wagon.  Yesterday afternoon David Hasselhoff’s 17-year-old daughter Hayley called her mother to complain that Daddy was drunk.  Really drunk.  911 was summoned and Hoff was hauled away to the hospital.  It was expected that he would be released last night.

It’s sad that David can’t seem to stay sober.  If there’s a silver lining in all of this, at least this episode of drunkenness wasn’t videotaped.

Everyone’s in Rehab Again

Rehab visits come in waves, like deaths and flu pandemics and vodka poured down Lindsay Lohan’s throat. (Who am I kidding? That last one’s a steady current.) Don’t get excited, though; Lindsay’s not in rehab again just yet. Right now we have VJ Matt Pinfield, who checked himself in last week, and Dennis Rodman, who’s agreed to do outpatient treatment although friends were hoping he’d opt for inpatient.

The former NBA star, who has battled addiction for years, has agreed to enter an outpatient program where he’ll regularly see a counselor.

While it is a step in the right direction, last week family and friends of Rodman, including his former Los Angeles Lakers coach, Phil Jackson, unsuccessfully reached out to the star, who refused to admit himself to an inpatient facility.

“Yes, they tried an intervention, but unfortunately Dennis refused to go,” Rodman’s rep tells E! News. “We all know how amazing he is when sober and we hope he gets there soon.”

Meanwhile, David Hasselhoff was found passed out on his floor by his 16-year-old daughter Hayley. She called her mother, Pamela Bach — from whom David is bitterly estranged — and she came over and rushed him to the hospital. He had severe alcohol poisoning.

A source said a frightened Hayley kept “slapping her dad’s face” to keep him alive. “He was barely breathing when they got him at the hospital … He’s recovering. Pam was his bedside till 4a.m. this morning. This is about the 7th time he’s been taken to a hospital over the last few years with alcohol poisoning. How many visits will it take before he dies?”

Indeed. It’s especially heartbreaking because The Hoff’s tried so, so hard to get and stay sober over the years. I give him a rough time sometimes, but I know it’s killing him to put his daughters through this, and my heart just hurts for this family. What a vicious disease. Expect David to do yet another round of inpatient.

David Hasselhoff’s Divorce Settlement is Finalized

The perpetually rehabbing star (well, he’s a star in Germany) finally came to an agreement on a divorce settlement with his wife, Pamela Bach.

The financial arrangements were not released, but the two will share custody of their two teenage girls.

Unless one of them is in rehab, which is most of the time.
