In the latest Us Weekly, Dustin Diamond (Screech) has come forward with shocking claims about his Saved by the Bell co-stars' drug use and promiscuity.

"I could smell a certain 'smoke,' wafting from the crack" underneath his castmates' dressing rooms, he says, in reference to their alleged marijuana use.

He also claims that Mark-Paul Gosselaar used steroids in the early 90's before starring in Saved by the Bell: The College Years. "He suddenly exploded with manliness, loading 25 pounds of muscle on his once-scrawny frame in, oh, about a month." Gosselarr has since responded to the ma...

We all have our favorite shows, especially the ones we used to beg mom and dad to let us stay up and watch.

Celebrities We'd Like To See In A Sex Tape

July 17th, 2009 9:38am EDT
Celebrity Sex Tapes We
As a celebrity, the release of a sex tape is essentially a roll of the dice. You can either win big or lose your house on the gamble. A popular sex tape can turn B and C listers into A listers just like Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee. A great sex tape can also turn a little bit of fame into a lot of fame (see Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian).

However, if the sex tape is bad or if the celebrity in the sex tape comes across as odd and/or creepy (ahem, Dustin Diamond), they can make everyone wish that they had never heard of that celebrity and never enjoyed any of their prior work. It c...

Why Are You Even On Right Now? TV's Worst Personalities

June 19th, 2009 11:19am EDT
Ryan Seacrest
There are some TV personalities that make you want to change the channel. Here's a short list of the most annoying ones:

Daisy (From Daisy of Love):

Vh1 must be running out of ideas for shows to have given one of Rock of Love's most inarticulate, irritating, and unattractive contestants her own reality competition. The only thing slightly interesting about Daisy De LaHoya is the fact that her uncle is Oscar De LaHoya. We think that might have something to do with the fact that she has her own show, unimaginatively and nonsensically titled Daisy of Love. Or, it could be that Vh1 is try...

When Enough Is Enough: Worst TV Spin-Offs

Saved by the Bell: The New Class
The logic behind the spin-off is very sound. Take a beloved character or concept from a pre-existing series and create an entire new show. You have an established character or brand and thus a built-in fan base. It makes perfect sense, no?

Unfortunately, the reality of the situation is not quite that simple. Certainly there have been spin-offs that attracted both fans and critics and managed to create a legacy all their own. Shows like "Frasier," "Angel," and "The Jeffersons" instantly come to mind. But for every successful spin-off, there have been dozens of miserable failures...

They spend their careers in front of the camera. They live their lives with the paparazzi hovering. Is it any wonder that when celebrities get intimate they sometimes forget to stop the tapes from rolling?

In the last few years, the celebrity sex tape has become a booming business. There seems to be no limit to the number of stars getting caught in the act - and instead of hiding away until the scandal dies down, many see their home movies as a ticket to greater stardom and a major payday.

It certainly worked for Paris Hilton. The heiress was just another New York socialite, popp...
