Debbie Schlussel: Baywatch CryBaby: David Hasselhoff Defends his Crying by Attacking White House
Starring on "Baywatch" must severely lower the IQ.
This morning on the PMS Bitch-fest known as "The View," former "Baywatch" and "Knight Rider" star David Hasselhoff couldn't figure out how to defend his girlie-man crying on the "American Idol" finale. (WATCH THE very brief VIDEO OF DAVID HASSELHOFF CRYING HERE for a big laugh.)
So he turned to a Hollywood standard. He attacked the White House.
When asked why he cried on the awards show, in whose audience he sat, the excessively cheesy Hasselhoff exclaimed:
Well, maybe if we had more emotion in the White House, we wouldn't be having this mess we're having.
Predictably, the mindless desperate housewives that populate "The View's" audience gave Hasselhoff--who was on the show to promote his roles in the movie "Click" (it stinks; stay tuned for review, Friday) and as a judge on Regis Philbin/Simon Cowell's "America's Got Talent"--loud applause and cheers for his outburst.
While Hasselhoff didn't say to what he was referring, presumably his caustic remark was a criticism of the War in Iraq. We guess if President Bush cried like a girlie-man in public at silly awards shows, all would be solved. The beheadings would end, and the whole Islamic world would respect us. Peace through crying. That's a new one.
Thanks, David Hasselhoff, for this useful advice.
