The Hoff is back and talking with Metro.co.uk about Britains Got Talent, his reality show and his new movie Piranha 3DD.
Why did you do this reality show?
One, to help highlight my daughters’ quests to become singers. Number two, instead of reading complete unadulterated lies about me in the press, this was a chance to invite people in to say: ‘This is who the Hasselhoffs are – we have a great family relationship, a heart and a sense of humour.’
Are you worried your daughters will experience the negative side of fame?
They already have because of my divorce and the stuff I’ve gone through. They’ve had to have a hard skin, especially at school. Every kid goes through challenges at school, whether you’re in show business or not, but it’s worse if people know you because of your parents. We’re just a normal family that picks up the papers and reads what we’ve been doing, or haven’t, everyday. It hurts when your children are mentioned and when people assume things about them that aren’t true.
How’s Britain’s Got Talent going?
I’m having a blast. I find it very funny that I can’t understand what people are saying a lot of the time. I’m very proud I’ve been asked to do it. I’m spending a lot of time in Britain and people are very complimentary.
KITT has been out of view for a while, but now he’s back and he wants to find Michael. But no one wants to tell him that the Hoff has moved on. With The Hoff very busy judging this years BGT, how will he react when he see’s his old buddy? Will KITT ever give up on Michael? Who will help him? Go backstage with KITT and find out.
David Hasselhoff loves the Coachella Festival, so he has made annual appearances at the event. This year he has brought his new girlfriend, Hayley Roberts to Indio, California for Coachella.
The pair were set to enjoy a first night line-up including Cee Lo Green, Kings Of Leon, Marina And The Diamonds and The Chemical Brothers.
The Hoff has been seeing the Welsh blonde for three months after meeting her in Cardiff Bay while filming Britain’s Got Talent auditions, and is now a regular visitor to Miss Roberts’ home town of Glynneath in Swansea. (more…)
Britain’s Got Talent returns to the UK screens this Saturday and promises to be the wackiest series so far.
From a man impersonating trucks to a guy who carves faces out of melons, this year’s auditions have been so crazy that judge Amanda Holden has even suggested the show be renamed ‘Britain’s Got Self-Belief’.
Hosted by Ant and Dec, the fifth series will see two new judges, comedian Michael McIntyre and David Hasselhoff, join Amanda on the judging panel with viewers being treated to guest appearances from Louis Walsh and Simon Cowell.
Britain’s Got Talent returns to to ITV in Great Britain starting April 16. The show, hosted by Geordie duo Ant and Dec, and featuring returning judge Amanda Holden and new panel members Michael McIntyre and David Hasselhoff, had its air date confirmed on the channel’s Twitter account earlier today.
The live finals are scheduled to air in May.
Judge Amanada Holden also says she wants a whole episode of Glee dedicated to David Hasselhoff. Amanda told The Sun’s Buzz magazine that he’d be fantastic on the hit musical show and added, “He could sweep Sue Sylvester off her feet…The Hoff’s the only man tall enough to do it!”
The great man himself loved the the idea and laughed.
“I love Glee and listen to musical theatre a lot…I’ve even recorded songs from the musicals Dracula, and Jekyll & Hyde.”
David Hasselhoff arrived in Birmingham Tuesday for the Britain’s Got Talent Auditions. He spent longer then the other judges outside to sign autographs and chat with fans before walking over to the media for some photos.
David does a magic trick pulling something out of his pocket.
A&E might have pulledThe Hasselhoffs from their lineup, but across the pond, they just can’t get enough of David Hasselhoff.
A publicist for the actor confirms to EW that the former Baywatchand Knight Rider star will join the judging panel at Britain’s Got Talent, more than a week after it was announced he was in talks for the gig.

The panel will also include existing judge Amanda Holden, and Simon Cowell will lend his critiques during the live portions of the show.
It seems a bit quick after David’s announcement, however, E! cites they have confirmed the details. Howie Mandel will take David’s place on the judge panel on America’s Got Talent.
The 54-year-old former Deal or No Deal host will sit at the judge’s table with Piers Morgan and Sharon Osbourne for the show’s fifth season, E! News has confirmed.
This announcement follows news of judge David Hasselhoff‘s departure, who is leaving the NBC show after four seasons to focus on creating his own TV program.
“It’s been a rewarding experience and now I’m thrilled to be able to follow my dream to do my own TV show, which will be announced very shortly,” the Hoff said in a statement Wednesday.
Mandel returns to reality TV after giving up his suitcase-toting duties in early 2009, when Deal or No Deal was cancelled.
