Heart-throb Orlando Bloom has revealed that it was Baywatch actor David Hasselhoff that inspired him to follow an acting career.
He explained that he worshipped the actor's character Michael Knight in Knight Rider and The A-Team.
"As soon as I realised 'The A-Team' and 'Knight Rider' weren't real, I decided I wanted to act because I thought I'd love to be any number of those guys," he revealed.
Bloom set himself up for his acting career at the age of 16 when he joined the National Youth Theatre in London and has now starred in such blockbusters as Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Caribbean.
Meanwhile Hasselhoff is now a successful singer in Germany and has a Knight Rider movie in production.
