David Hasselhoff

I have a great relationship with my kids. We're very honest with each other, and I'm very proud that we are absolutely, incredibly close. That to me is more important than anything.

In life, you either watch TV or you do TV. I told my daughters that the only way you're going to make it in this business is to get in the game. That's the biggest advice I can give them.

I've already lived the lives of ten people. My father's 87 and still going strong. I think there's a lovely angel watching over me.

When you realize that life isn't fair, you don't act out, you don't get overly wasted, you don't get self-indulgent. You just move forward.

Image is what people perceive my life to be. It's nothing like the truth.

I think laughter is the best medicine. If you can't laugh at yourself, then you can't laugh at life and the silliness of it all.

Spirituality - prayer - is a big part of my life.

I did, I'd say, at least about 80 percent of the rest of the driving, and I had the time of my life.

I wanted to play around with the format, really tear it to pieces and shake it up. For example, if Mitch saves someone from drowning, and that person then goes out and releases a virus that kills a million people. Imagine the moral implications of that.

Beyond its entertainment values, 'Baywatch' has enriched and in many cases helped save lives.

When I play discos in Belfast or freshers' week in Oxford, there are 1,800 kids dressed as me. It's odd, it's funny, and it pays really well.

I'm six foot four, an all-American guy, and handsome and talented as well!
