This is the first installment of today's "Three People Who Are In The News But I Didn't Realize They Were Still Famous."
Dustin Diamond
Dustin Diamond, formerly known as the dorky character Screech from Saved By The Bell, hasn't been in a reasonably budgeted movie where he hasn't played himself since Saved By The Bell: The New Class.
Also, Diamond filed for bankruptcy in 2001 and (pathetically) released his own sex tape in 2006, according to Us Magazine, but he's making a long-jump for cash with his new book called Behind The Bell.
In his new/only book, Diamond makes claims that are borderline insulting to American youth. On this popular television show, where every actor or actress was attractive (except him), single and in their late teens and early twenties, he tells everyone that there was a lot of sex and pot-smoking between the cast...except for him.
What was that, Diamond? Are you serious? These attractive and wealthy teenagers and twentysomethings were having sex and smoking pot? It's almost like...any high school or college in the United States. Truly amazing. Diamond has ruptured my mind so badly that I must go to confession to tell my priest that I supported these immoral habits by simply watching the television program Saved By The Bell.
And, to think, I was naive enough to believe the worst it ever got was when Jesse got addicted to pills. But, even then, Zack totally saved her.
