Britney Spears' conservator and dad has introduced his daughter to David Hasselhoff. Sources say that Jamie, who had met the "Baywatch" star when he visited his new restaurant, thought the actor would be a good influence for his "Toxic" daughter, in spite of his past problems with alcohol and drugs.

Britney, 26, is said to love her new friend. She has reportedly been hanging out at Hasselhoff's pad watching episodes of Knight Rider. The new buds also head to his backyard to perform in primal scream therapy and self-affirmation exercises.

A source tells U.K.'s Daily Star, "Britney turns up looking like she's carrying a big bag of bad on her back and the noise can get a bit much, but she always leaves with a smile on her face."

However, the pop star's mom isn't happy about her daughter's meetings with The Hoff.

An insider says, "Britney's mom is incandescent with rage at Jamie's stupidity. She wants her daughter to stay out of the headlines, but she thinks her ex-husband just wants publicity for his new business."

"Lynne feels as though Jamie is trying to get back at her through their daughter, but introducing Britney to an asylum of famous mentalists is really going too far."
