Cameo: Michael Newman
Tons of celebs have been featured on Baywatch for a quick cameo. Michael Newman was originally hired on the show as a consultant. He was the only real lifeguard to ever be featured on the show! Newman played "himself" and was a series regular from 1989 until 1996.
Michael Newman didn't really act after his time on the show. Fans loved him because he brought some authenticity to the show. He left Hollywood behind to sell real estate in Pacific Palisades.
