CELEBRITY Curious facts

Though these celebs have made it big in Hollywood, most of us are aware that the dream of being a successful actor or entertainer is arduous. Many A-listers we know and admire lived together early in their career as struggling actors, and some were even assigned to the same dorm in college! 

Such was the case with David Hasselhoff and Paul Reubens—an odd pairing that turned into a beautiful friendship. The 'Baywatch' star shared a room with the 'Pee-wee Herman' actor back when they both attended California Institute of the Arts before starting their careers. Hasselhoff shared the history of their friendship in a tribute post to Reubens, who sadly passed away on July 30, 2023, after a battle with cancer. “Paul Reubens was a great, great friend,” he wrote, along with an old photo of himself and Reubens, who was dressed in his iconic Pee-Wee Herman suit and bow tie. "He was always kind to me and to everyone," said Hasselhoff, writing that Reubens never forgot the birthday of anyone in their class at CalArts. "He will be missed."
