David Hasselhoff was barred from boarding a flight to Los Angeles because he showed up too drunk at London's Heathrow airport, according to reports.
The actor/singer had his travel plans postponed by two hours Wednesday after airport officials declared him unfit to fly.
Witnesses tell British newspaper The Sun the 54-year-old, who claims to have beaten his battle with booze, was clearly inebriated and his behavior startled them.
One source, who saw the actor pick up the boss of the airport's duty free shop, said, "He seemed merry. He's a huge fella and the manageress is tiny. He picked her up then put her down."
A British Airways spokesman confirmed, "A male passenger was denied boarding on the BA279 Heathrow to Los Angeles service because he was deemed unfit for travel. He was assessed later and passed fit to fly on BA283."
Hasselhoff's publicist, Judy Katz, has blasted the story as "totally untrue."
She says, "Due to a new medication prescribed by his doctor in London on Tuesday for an infection in his injured hand, Mr. Hasselhoff became ill at Heathrow Airport yesterday and requested to be put on a later flight to Los Angeles.
"They gave him some strong antibiotics and he got sick at the airport. He couldn't get on the plane. It was his choice.
"He left London on a 12 noon British Airways flight and will be appearing on 'America's Got Talent' later today."
The hand injury Katz is referring to stems from a shaving accident Hasselhoff had last month, when he cut himself in his hotel bathroom.

But I'm The Hoff!
(No, antibiotics don't make you drunk. Shouldn't, anyway.)
