David Hasselhoff

David Michael Hasselhoff (born July 17, 1952 in Baltimore, Maryland) is an American actor best known for his lead roles on Knight Rider and Baywatch. He has also enjoyed a minor singing career, primarily in Germany.

Singing career

Fulfilling his original dream to be a singer, he covered "Looking for Freedom" in 1989, just as the Berlin Wall came down. In Germany, his song became an anthem of sorts at the time, and the accompanying album went gold and triple platinum, topping the charts for three months.
