David Hasselhoff Relapses and Is Hospitalized

Posted Oct 9th 2007 6:10PM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has confirmed that David Hasselhoff has been hospitalized, as first reported by the National Enquirer.

Rep Judy Katz tells us that the Hoff did have a relapse and is in the hospital, but is doing fine. In an exclusive statement, Katz tells us "David had a brief relapse and immediately recognized the importance of addressing it with the assistance of his doctors. He is doing fine and will be back home in the morning".

As for how this will affect his custody case, sources say the children had been in ex-wife Pamela Bach's care for the last six weeks as he's been out of the country in Romania shooting "Anaconda 3."

We're told mediation is scheduled for Thursday.

We last saw the Hoff last Thursday night, outside of Koi with one of his daughters.

70. I went looking for Publicity Stunt's post because people were praising it and I can see why, well put. People still visit Jim Morrison's grave as if he was some kind of saint, the guy died of heart failure at age 28 from the abuse he heaped on his body. Elvis abused his body until he suffered a needless premature death. Bob Marley died because he was part of the Rastafarian religion that doesn't believe in medical intervention so he refused to have a small area of skin cancer on his heel treated and died eventually of cancer. Janis Joplin overdosed. Poor Marilyn Monroe, overdosed hey booze and pills don't mix. Jimmy Hendrix, whose family to this day will not allow his image to in any way promote alcohol and in fact recently put a stop to something of that very nature. So the list goes on and people worship them. Anna Nicole really didn't need to continue abusing prescription drugs but she believed because they were prescribed by a doctor it was fine. Not so much.

71. HEY! DON'T HASSLE THE HOF! Don't you think The Hof and George Michael would make a pretty pair? No? Ok, how about The Hoff and Boy George? Boy could nurse him back when he goes on a nasty binge with tea and lemon, and maybe even polish his rocket while he's peeling grapes for him.....

72. NO matter how much fame or money they have they will always will feel empty in their heart's the devil will take posses of them and make them do negative things with out self control as everyone could see how this people live no one is perfect not one only the Farther in Heaven
That is why Jesus Christ came to the world for the sick,and the lost and people with issue's.
What good is to get all the fame and gold from the world and losses your soul in the process.
we all need God we are the church we are the temple our self we must build a relationship with God daily love one another .
Jesus Christ is the light and the way no one come's to the Father Only by Him.

73. Entertainment stars are put on pedestals as if they are something special. They have the same pain, anguish, problems as we average people have. When they fall from grace, its because of the pressure that is put on them to succeed - which most entertains can't cope with. I feel sorry for the entertainers that put their careers as the number one priority in their lives and fall into destructive behavior when thing aren't going well. We all have "lows" in our lives. They can't be on top forever. Grow Up!!
