David Hasselhoff has made a globe containing just his image to show the impact he has had on the world.

The former "Baywatch" actor claims the miniature sculpture - which sees pictures of himself making up all the countries - is "ironic" but insists he has played a part in solving the world's problems.

David Hasselhoff is a "falling-down drunk," says his ex-wife. Pamela Bach claims her 16-year marriage to the 56-year-old actor - which ended in 2006 - was put under enormous pressure due to his alcohol addiction.

She said: "David is a falling-down drunk and I covered up for him for years. Alcoholism destroys you whether you are a regular Joe or the biggest star on the planet."

David Hasselhoff wishes more people would take his photograph. The former 'Baywatch' actor enjoys being famous and although he hates being hounded by paparazzi he still loves being in the public spotlight.

He said: "I am blessed. It's a wonderful, wonderful business, except for the paparazzi. But there's also some times when you walk out and you go, 'Gee, I wish somebody would take my picture.'"
