David Hasselhoff has annoucned he is to star in a musical based on his life!

The show will be inspired by the 54-year-old's career, US soap opera 'The Young and The Restless' and the songs of Teddy Pendergrass!! Writer's from the Bette Midler's show are being drafted in and it is set to be produced by the people who produced 'Chicago' in London.

"I am doing a heart-rendering set on my life and the mistakes I have made," the Hoff said, "It sounds like a bad joke, but it is really going to be a good show... totally campy."

The production - simply called 'David Hasselhoff: The Musical' - will open in Melbourne, Australia, before moving to America.
