In what can only be called a travesty of the LA justice system, a judge today awarded David Hasselhoff sole physical and custodial custody of his two teen daughters. Of course, the Hoff took the publicity opportunity following the trial to plug his show “America’s Got Talent” on NBC, and also his book “Don’t Hassle the Hoff.” Glad to see he’s happy about being able to parent the girls!

Apparently the judge in the case is a fan, and conveniently forgot the Hoff’s recent home video debut as a drunken rambler, taped by one of his own daughters. The tape, leaked late last year, featured the Hoff in a half-drunk stupor, complaining about the world in general, and his ex-wife in particular. One almost feels sorry for him!

However, the girls’ mother, Pamela Bach, didn’t present much of a custodial alternative, having tested positive for cocaine last year and blamed the test on hair extensions. In the course of the messy case, Hoff alleged that Bach was high at her daughter’s 16th birthday party, that she was obsessed with the family’s ex-nanny (according to Hoff), and that she broke into his residence on Fathers Day 2006.

Meanwhile, despite (or maybe because of) the buzz surrounding the divorce and custody battle, Hasslehoff’s talent show has taken off nicely on Tuesday nights, winning 11.8 million viewers.

So what’s the future hold for the Hoff’s? Well, you could always catch David at his next book signing, or, as he indicated following the trial, down at the local beach. Meanwhile Bach put on a brave face for the crowds and released a statement through her lawyer.
