David Hasselhoff's visitation rights to see his children have been suspended.
A Los Angeles judge temporarily barred the former 'Baywatch' star from visiting daughters Taylor-Ann and Hayley on Monday (07.05.07), following the emergence of a videotape showing him drunk in Taylor-Ann's presence.
Superior Court Judge Mark Juhas said: "This videotape changes the landscape, it just does."
Hasselhoff - a recovering alcoholic - was not present at the hearing, but ex-wife Pamela Bach attended.
The sanction will remain in place until May 21, when another child custody hearing has been set.
So which is worse? This or Alec Baldwin?
Baldwin is worse because he’s just an all around ass. Hasselhoff seems like a decent guy with a problem. I’m hopeful that this will push him to get himself straightened out for good.
Uh-oh. Dropped him like he’s HOFF!
You’re right. I hope he gets help, too.
CNN played that darn thing a million times or so it seemed as I frantically searched for the clicker to turn the channel.
We were talking and it was looping over and over ack.
Then I wondered if it was a staged stunt to promote his soon to be released book he wrote about his drinking problem.
Naw.
Bad (and unsurprising) news for the Hoff ping!
Alec
He was sober
Agree.
He was the Knight Rider right?
I know about Baywatch and didn’t he release a musical attempt at singing?
Bush is a prime example of a recovered alcoholic..........but, jerks like alec baldwin will be jerks for life. Alec has some serious anger problems.
Hasselhoff’s struggle with John Barleycorn has been widely known for a long time. At least a year ago, it was reported that he was so drunk in an airport VIP lounge that he lost bladder control.
Both are inexcusable and offensive.
"I'm start'n up an Abusive Father's Rights Movement! "
"Abusers have rights too! "
That video is sad, hope he gets help!
Here’s a happy video of Mr. Hasselhoff!

Baldwin. It sounds like Hasselhoff ASKED his children to video him if he got drunk again, as a lesson and warning to himself. At least he knows he has a problem, and was very careful NOT to berate his children for HIS problems.
Baldwin is just slime.
I think maybe the drunk video needs to be set to music. “Hooked on a Feeling” would work real well. :)
I totally concur. Wonder if Xena’s Guy could help us out?
“Bush is a prime example of a recovered alcoholic..........”
I’m not aware that Bush has ever been an alcoholic, do you have a link to that source?
You’re absolutely right. I hope this has been a genuine wake up call for him. I’m not a big fan but he does seem like a decent guy. Hope he can pull himself out of this.
OK, you twisted my arm. :-)
