"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!"
Tell Us What You Think
8Hasselfluff is nothing but a "Has-Been". The DWTS producers royally f--ked up by inviting this no talent jerk.
"OH for God's sake : Lighten up A**ELHOFF! It aint like you've NEVER been humiliated on national t.v. before dude!!!
Don't hassle the Hoff!
I'm just happy he was replaced by Howie Mandell on AGT. You're so vain, you probably think this show is about you.....HA!
Can you say MAJOR EGO here? That's what he's all about.
David Hasselhoff is a mess? We could have told you that. David Hasselhoff is the perfect example of a Hollywood horror story. He is a loser that should retire. Join Lindsay. Sleep with Paris. Make an erotic video with Kim. Help your daughter's career the way Hulk Hogan screwed up his daughter's career. But stop boring us with your bad behavior, Mr. Hasselhoff.
