LONDON (AFP) - The star of the internationally popular US television series "Baywatch," David Hasselhoff, was reportedly prevented from boarding a British Airways plane for allegedly being drunk.

Witnesses told The Sun newspaper Thursday that the actor staggered around the first class departure lounge at London's Heathrow airport at 7:00 am (0600 GMT) on Wednesday.

Hasselhoff, 54, drank bottles of beer and shots of whisky while waiting for a flight to Los Angeles. He then started mumbling to people and tried to lift up a female assistant at the duty free shop, it said.

"He seemed merry. He's a huge fella and the manageress is tiny. He picked her up then put her down," a witness said.

"A passenger asked if he was David Hasselhoff and he said: 'Not at all, you must be mistaken'. He wasn't aggressive, he just had problems standing," the witness said.

BA staff told the actor, who is nicknamed "The Hoff," he was unfit to board the plane and he agreed, the Sun reported.

He told them he was upset about his divorce from Pamela, his wife of 16 years.

Hasselhoff, who played lifeguard Mitch Bucannon in Baywatch and also starred in the 1980s TV show "Knight Rider" was told he could board a later flight.

Two hours later he was carted to a plane on a buggy usually reserved for elderly or infirm passengers.

A BA spokesman said of the incident: "A male passenger was refused boarding after he was deemed unfit to travel."

Three weeks ago Hasselhoff was accused of being "steaming drunk" at the Wimbledon tennis tournament in London and was escorted from the premises by security guards.

You can't even get on a plane drunk anymore? Shit.... they got some damn good microbrews at this little bar at the Tucson airport too :(

Just as well though..... taking a piss in those tiny little airplane bathrooms ain't easy when you're drunk.
