Baywatch star admits he ‘snuck off to sniff female co-star’s dirty swim suits’
A Baywatch actor has made a disturbing confession.
While talking during the After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun documentary for Hulu, Jeremy made the disturbing confession and admitted he used to “sneak” into his former co-stars trailers and smell their swimsuits.
He admitted: “Going through puberty on Baywatch was painful. I was too young to hook up with the chicks but old enough to want to. I would usually sneak into [the women’s] trailers after they were done and grab their dirty bathing suits.”
Jackson then quipped: “Let’s just say I smelled every p***y on Baywatch.” The actor then revealed that co-star Nicole Eggert caught his eye in particular: “Nicole was the big one, for sure. We had a very intimate moment, her and I, that she never knew about.”
While filming the Hulu documentary, producers informed Nicole of Jackson’s confession, to which she responded with a laugh: “I knew Jeremy very well, this surprises me not at all. There’s nothing Jeremy could say that would freak me out.”
“I’m not even made at 14-year-old Jeremy. I mean, puberty on a show like that? I love grown-up Jeremy for being honest about 14-year-old Jeremy.” According to Jeremy, being a star on the saucy series took a toll on him.
Jackson said that Baywatch meant he wanted to be “grown-up way before” his time. Jeremy, who played the son of David Hasselhoff’s character, began abusing drugs during his final year of filming, eventually leading to the actor becoming addicted to crystal meth.
He spoke about the experience for the Hulu documentary: “I remember David [Hasselhoff] saying: ‘Are you smoking pot or something?’ And I was [thinking] like: ‘Jesus, they think I’m smoking pot?’ I could never tell them the truth. What would they think?”
“When you haven’t slept for five days and you’ve been smoking crystal meth, having somebody look you in the eyes and say: ‘Dude, are you ok?’ is like the worst thing that can happen.”
Jackson said that his “life slipped through his hands like sand” and the actor was eventually arrested in 1999, before spending 90 days in jail and moving on to a stint in rehab.
