While pale, porcelain skin is beautiful, it's hard to ignore the beauty of a bronze glow in the summertime. Who doesn't feel a little bit lovelier with slightly golden, sun-kissed skin? Notice we said slightly -- there's a big difference between being a little bit tan and looking like you've spent every day for the last three weeks baking on Miami Beach.

If there's one guy that's consistently been a men's style icon for the past three decades, it's David Hasselhoff. Not only was the dude in charge on Baywatch (an enviable position, indeed), he was Michael Knight in Knight Rider for crying out loud. What man wouldn't -- to this day -- give his right arm for the chance to drive that car?

Now all of us can learn from this master of cool, as "The Hoff" is releasing an autobiography -- Don't Hassel the Hoff.

Here's the scoop from the man himself: "This book is my opportunity to print something from my heart, to tell the truth about what happened to me on the long and winding road from Baltimore to Baywatch to Broadway – and beyond. This book is about my successes and my failures, my strengths and my weaknesses. And, above all, it is about the hope contained in the Knight Rider slogan: 'One man can make a difference.'"

The book goes on sale May 15th. Pre-reserve your copy now. This man is a legend.

Don't Hassel the Hoff.

At least not while he's poring over sketches for his new line of clothing! Um, right.

Mr. Baywatch, David Hasselhoff, believes he "is as popular as Elvis" because so many of his fans support him those "Don't Hassel the Hoff!" shirts. I guess that naturally leads to his belief that he could successfully launch an entire line of clothing. His clothing, to be labelled "Malibu Dave," will be surf-related, but don't take our words for it. The man himself says: "It's just going to be supercool, laid back surfing gear. Everywhere I go, there are all these guys, like 400 guys, wearing the 'Don't Hassel The 'Hoff' shirt. "There are guys who turn up dressed like me. It's a bit weird. I'm like Elvis, only alive. "Although just between you and me, Elvis is alive. He's living at my home."

Love him or hate him, there's no denying that actor/rock star David Hasselfhoff has a way with his fans. (And by fans, I mean teenagers in West Germany during the fall of the Berlin Wall). That said, it seems that the hairy-chested ex-Baywatch star is facing a little flack after the Sun (the tabloid) reported that he had been turned away rom a British Airways flight because he was drunk.

Drunk?!?! Yes, drunk!

A spokesperson for Hasselhoff denies that he had been drinking, insisting instead that he had been feeling woozy after taking some medication to treat his recent arm injury. The airline is down-playing the situation by claiming that he was merely "deemed unfit to travel."

Either way, it's bad PR for the out work actor, who is already dealing with the stress of a just-finalized divorce from Pamela Bach. But he shouldn't get too down on himself. After all, West Berlin will always love him, no matter what he does...
