David Hasselhoff is at the centre of yet another 911 scandal, according to TMZ.
And it’s the same story as last time: he wasn’t drunk, he was sick. Hasselhoff’s people released a statement saying yesterday’s incident was because of an ear infection which he was treating with Antivert.
This medication clashed poorly with Antabuse, another tactlessly-named medication the Hoff is taking to keep him from drinking. The cocktail resulted in a loss of equilibrium, so when the paramedics arrived, Hasselhoff opted to go to the hospital for help.
His teenage daughter Hayley Hasselhoff alerted her mother Pamela Bach last night saying her dad was drunk. One of Bach’s friends dialed 911, who answered the call shortly after to escort Hasselhoff to hospital.

The National Enquirer is reporting that David Hasselhoff was readmitted to a Los Angeles detox hospital yesterday after a severe alcohol relapse.
Hasselhoff was described as looking “weak,” “trembling” and “ashen.”
Hasselhoff’s alcoholism was smeared all over the internet earlier this year, when a videotape his daughter filmed of him drunk made its way online. The incident left him “humiliated,” but unable to completely kick his habit.
“He lives for his children and it killed him that they had to see him so drunk he didn’t know what he was doing,” a source told the Enquirer. “Most times he does remarkably well,…Then every once in a while he slips up and relapses. Then he has to start all over again.”
Despite the videotape controversy, Hasselhoff did win primary custody of his two children over his ex-wife, Pamela Bach. The 55-year-old was last seen as a judge on the television reality program, America’s Got Talent.
