Biography |
Jeremy Jackson is an American actor/singer. He is most
widely known for his role as David Hasslehoff's son, Hobie
Buchannon, on the popular television show Baywatch.
Following the series' success (and his status as a teen
idol), Jackson recorded an album and had two top 10 singles,
he toured across Europe and was later invited into the World
Music Hall of Fame, and was inducted into the Young
Hollywood Hall of Fame in 1996.
Jackson was featured in Vanity Fair's exclusive Hollywood
Issue in March 2006. He has been referred to as "Mr.
Myspace" and was a guest on The Tyra Banks Show for being
"the most notorious cyber stud on myspace.com". Jackson
recently admitted during an interview on his E! TV Special
titled Child Star Confidential that he used to be a heavy
drug user during the time he was on Baywatch and partly
attributes that to his decision to leave Baywatch, feeling
that working on the show was beneath him. After attending
drub rehab, Jackson finally beat his addiction he says.
Jeremy Jackson's recent comeback into the young Hollywood
spot light has helped by bringing immediate attention to the
current dangerous young Hollywood drug crisis. The outspoken
Jackson was then brought on as a guest to the News Talk Show
"The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch" on CNBC to talk about
Methamphetamines in Hollywood.
Jackson says he is enjoying his recent spotlight attention
because it's helped his nightclub so much. (Club Blow -
Saturdays at the Shark Club) The club was featured on
several of his recent Television Interviews. |
