Leonardo DiCaprio was almost cast in Baywatch.
The Great Gatsby star was in line to play the role of Hobie - son of central character Mitch Buchannon - in the hugely popular 90s Californian lifeguard series, but show star and producer David Hasselhoff thinks it was better for his career not to have won the part.
"Yeah, it was true! You know what, it was the best thing to happen to Leonardo DiCaprio. I saw Leonardo and I said, 'You know what, that was the best thing that ever happened to you! You would have never gotten Titanic and have been this big star,'" said David, who played Mitch and co-produced the show.
Joking about the actor who did get the role he added, "'You'd be like Jeremy Jackson and David Hasselhoff, looking for work.' Ha!"

I Confess: I Love Old Teen Idols
I usually shy away from reality projects featuring Scott Baio (not falling for that one again), but I just may have to make an exception for VH1. The network will soon be premiering its brand-new Confessions of a Teen Idol, which features seven former hotties who all share the same mission: grab the brass ring.
You know, again.
They each had their shot at fame and some even spent a little time at the top. But Hollywood is capricious, and soon enough all of these men found themselves on the swift path to being has-beens. But VH1 - and apparently, Scott Baio - thinks they could be shining stars once more. Or at the very least, reality stars. Here’s the funniest part: Baio is part host, part mentor to these would-be famous-again celebs.
I know, it’s a total riot.

Pamela Anderson Pregnant Yet Divorcing
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Rumors,
We have now reached the next phase of the strange Anderson/Salomon saga.
As we reported last month, actress Pamela Anderson filed for divorce from Rick Salomon, her freshly minted husband. But only days after submitting the paperwork, things were put on hold. The buxom blonde appeared to have a change of heart and blogged that she and Rick were “working things out.” Well, less than a month later, it seems that a reconciliation is no longer in the works. Since her Dec. 17th post, not one reference has been made about the (in)significant other.
Let’s make it clear, no one ever imagined the Baywatch beauty and - what exactly does he do? - Paris Hilton’s porn tape co-star would last as a couple. So it should not be surprising that the divorce is apparently proceeding as planned. But here’s the latest twist: it is now being reported that the magician’s assistant is also pregnant.
Can the demise of the marriage be blamed on the vegetarian bun in the oven? Was it the phrase ‘Shannen Doherty’ on Rick’s marital resume? Did Tommy Lee and/or Kid Rock threaten to smack him up? Who knows. Let’s just hope Pamela can soon learn to discard men like she has meat.
