LATEST: A visibly upset DAVID HASSELHOFF got into a heated confrontation with a CNN reporter on Thursday (22JUNE06) after she questioned him about domestic abuse allegations made by his ex-wife. The former BAYWATCH star was appearing on CNN’s AMERICAN MORNING to promote his new movie CLICK with ADAM SANDLER, when the interview took a personal turn. When reporter SOLEDAD O BRIEN brought up the abuse allegations by estranged wife PAMELA BACH, Hasselhoff shot back, "That’s not what I’m here to talk about. "The only person who broke my wife’s nose was a plastic surgeon, darling." Hasselhoff appeared upset and had yet another contentious exchange with O’Brien when she brought up his children, according to website TMZ.com. He fired back, "You conned me into this, because you said you weren’t going to talk about this." O’Brien replied, "No. Oh gosh, I never agree on conditions before I do any interview." Bach filed a declaration earlier this year (06), claiming that in December (05), Hasselhoff "grabbed me and pushed me hard into a car", adding, "In the past, he has also broken my nose." In a declaration filed on 20 June (06) in a Los Angeles Superior Court, Hasselhoff responded saying, "I categorically deny each and every allegation."
