STARR REPORT
John: ‘I’m no Hoff’ John Stamos has nothing against David Hasselhoff – just don’t confuse him with the troubled “America’s Got Talent” judge.
Stamos, talking to “Extra” tonight (7 p.m./Ch. 4), ad dresses reports he was, well, a little funny recently while addressing the Australian press. Many likened Stamos’ reportedly slurred speech to the recent video showing Hasselhoff trying to eat a hamburger off the floor – while drunk. “It really upsets me,” Stamos says. “I love David. I’m proud of his re covery. [But] I’m not like David Hasselhoff. I’m not in the same situation.”
