DJ Mark Ronson was shocked when David Hasselhoff complimented him on his musical talents and asked to work with him - but was forced to turn down the singer/actor because he was too busy.

The superproducer was left stunned when the former Baywatch star asked him to collaborate on a song when the two met at California's recent Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.


But Ronson, who has worked with stars including Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse, had no choice but to refuse Hasselhoff's request.


He says, "He came up and was like, 'Hey, I really love your stuff," and I was just taken aback.

"He stayed and watched our show and said that he's got some new TV show and wanted me to produce a song with him. But I'm a bit busy right now!"

David Hasselhoff doesn't believe the new Knight Rider series will be a success.


The 55-year-old, who rose to fame as Michael Knight in the original '80s show, told WENN that he wouldn't feature in the remake.


He said: "It's going to miss the target a little bit... It's like having Indiana Jones without Indiana Jones."


Hasselhoff agreed to cameo in the recent Knight Rider pilot, which proved a ratings hit for NBC and prompted the network to greenlight a series. However, he wasn't happy with the finished result.


"They asked me to come in and do a cameo and promote it and I said I would. But it was not what I had in mind," he said. "I didn't get a chance to see the show until the final product and it was clearly not what it could've been. It was someone else's vision."..

I got to say, I am sad to see the video that has just been release of David Hasselhoff, former Bay Watch star being drunk.

Anyone any idea when, where and who took the video?
