Turns out the Hoff was a huge hassle!

"He was a mess," a source tells the new Us Weekly of David Hasselhoff, 58, the first contestant booted from ABC's Dancing With the Stars on Sept. 21.

"His people would call staffers 20 times a day, changing rehearsal times, canceling shoots and even suggesting things like camera angles and poses," says the show insider. "It's like, we've done 11 seasons! We know what we're doing!"

Then there was the former Baywatch star's nonstop chatter. "He talks more than anyone I have ever met. And I have yet to have one conversation with him that makes sense," continues the source.

Meanwhile, it was his dance partner, Kym Johnson, who bore the brunt of it all. "At first, Kym thought getting Hoff as a partner was quite a coup," says the insider.

"But then quickly realized it was a mistake. She is so disappointed!"
