David Hasselhoff “Almost” Hooked Up With Princess Di

Oh, man – I don’t know whether to laugh, cry, or just continue to throw up in my mouth a little at THIS whopper. Does he just say anything that comes into his head nowadays? What’s next, he’s had sex with Smurfette?

David Hasselhoff has claimed the late Princess Diana wanted to bed him.

The former ‘Baywatch’ star boasted last night (12.09.06) that the princess was "smitten" with him and "sparks" flew between them when they met in 1993.

Hasselhoff, 54, recently divorced his wife Pamela Bach, 43, and insists that he and Princess Diana, who tragically died in a 1997 Paris car crash, would have slept together "if circumstances had been different".

The actor claims when the pair met at a charity event in London, Diana, who was married to Prince Charles at the time, joked to him: "You look much better with your clothes on" to which Hasselhoff replied: "Well Ma’am, so do you."

At the launch of his new autobiography ‘Making Waves’, the former ‘Knight Rider’ star said: "I felt like she was a little girl caught up in this whirlwind.

"She was smitten with me since I was so tall. I was smitten with her since she was so tall. But she was married and so was I. I probably would have gone after her if circumstances had been different. In the end, I just wanted to be a friend and to hang out with her."

Probably she was smitten with him because of delicious little sexy fuzzy goodies like this. You REALLY need to watch the musicians in the background totally rocking out to the Hoff for the best entertainment value:
