David Hasselhoff: The German Giant

It’s no secret that David Hasselhoff is one of the world’s Germany’s biggest rock stars.

Last night, fans lined up outside record stores from Munich to Berlin, hoping to snag a copy of the Hoff’s 17th album, entitled This Time Around.

Within an hour, the CD had already gone platinum, making Hasselhoff the best-selling male solo artist of all time in Germany.

“It’s an honor, but not as impressive as my other world record,” the actor/crooner told OMGG.com. “As a cast member on Baywatch, I once held in my stomach for 11 straight years.”
