Jeremy Jackson - Who? I Hear You Ask....

Hobie Buchannon that's who!  Still in the dark - clearly you haven't been keeping up with your Baywatch re-runs - Hobie was the cute son of the Hoff.  Ringing bells now?
How about some photographic gems to jog your memory....


With me now?  Good.  Of course I bet you've been dying to know what happened to him.  Well just you wait - this kid, who showed such potential and was damn cute in Baywatch if I may say so has kind of dropped the ball a little in later life.  To start with, he looks like THIS now......
Hahahaha!  Seriously!  What is he thinking?  apparently not much as he is currently starring in the latest series of ....wait for it..... Celebrity Re-hab!
I can't tell you how disappointed I was to hear this - I had such high hopes for the young man.
Jeremy admitted in an interview that he had a severe drug problem during the time he was on Baywatch. He partly attributes his decision to leave Baywatch to his drug problem, as the drugs made him feel that working on the show was beneath him. After being arrested in a methamphetamine raid and a long stint in drug rehab, Jeremy says beat his addiction, remaining clean and sober until 2000.

It gets worse - in 2008 a sex tape surfaced. Jeremy claims he was forced to hand over the tape to "drug addicted thugs" pretending to work on behalf of a former love. I'm thinking there is the makings of a great TV Movie right there.
Which brings us to now.  Sadly Jeremy is still not in control of his addiction although this time he is struggling with steroid addiction.  


With a bit of luck Jeremy Jackson will get the help he needs on Celebrity Re-hab and perhaps the next 31 years will go a little easier on him.  Good luck J.J.  Hopefully we'll see a little more of THIS Jeremy Jackson in the future.....
