“I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’ve gotta go to work’. I have to be on all the time. I wasn’t really on yesterday.
“I was tired the night before and I couldn’t sleep. It’s funny because when I’m working I have to be David Hasselhoff, to be charming and funny.
He added: “But sometimes I just want to stay home and watch television with my wife.’’
Earlier this year, The Hoff reunited with his former Baywatch pals as they celebrated his 70th birthday with a lavish bash in California.
