As reported at RadarOnline.com, Hasselhoff was admitted, involuntarily, to the psychiatric hold in Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after being picked up under the California Welfare and Institutions code 5150. David Hasselhoff had been drinking large amounts of alcohol before he was picked up.

If there's one thing the public remembers about David Hasselhoff, known for his work in Knight Rider, Baywatch and America's Got Talent, is the video taken by his daughter, who was sixteen at the time, of him lying on the floor, drunk, trying to eat some food. In the video, his daughter pleads for him to stop drinking. Fans hoped that since the video was released to the public, David Hasselhoff would make efforts to get his drinking under control. However, with this latest episode, those hopes are becoming dashed.

An awful lot of magnificently talented people suffer from alcoholism. The Hoff is not one of these magnificently talented people. He'll do anything for a photo-op, his name in the papers, blah blah. A bore. Who on earth thought that he would be a judge of talent???? Where is that show, anyway? He's gone the way of Lindsay and Paris and Tara and oh wait, they are girls. Maybe his problems began with the painkillers he had to take for his facelift(s). He's a bore.

An aw
Thank you for reading my article. I appreciate it!
I hope he gets the help he needs. The video his daughter recorded was disturbing.
Poor David--he really likes to throw back. It's time for help.
