Screech Powers, Bayside High’s lovable geek, played by Dustin Diamond, was notably absent from the cast’s photo 20th anniversary reunion on the cover of PEOPLE last week.
RadarOnline insiders reveal that Dustin’s forthcoming tell-all Behind The Bell – which promises to dish the dirt on what really went on behind-the-scenes of NBC’s teen comedy — prompted his former castmates to ban him from the reunion.
“Cast members were not comfortable with including him,” a spokesperson for PEOPLE told Radar last Friday.
Twenty years after it all began, the cast of Saved By The Bell has reunited on the pages of the new issue of PEOPLE Magazine.
Mario Lopez (Slater), Mark-Paul Gosselaar (Zack), Elizabeth Berkley (Jessie), Tiffani Thiessen (Kelly) and Lark Voorhies (Lisa) are back together in celebration of their days as the face of NBC’s Saturday Morning TNBC lineup.
But where is Dustin Diamond, who played curly-topped nerd Screech on the series? Now a stand-up comedian, Diamond tells PEOPLE he is no longer close with his castmates and did not want to join them on the reunion cover.
He’s currently working on a tell-all called Behind the Bell.
To find out what the Saved By The Bell cast has been up to in recent years, pick up PEOPLE this Friday, July 31.
We’ve seen the last of Kelly Kapowski. Actress Tiffani Thiessen (She dropped the “Amber” years ago.) states her case for snubbing the Jimmy Fallon Saved By The Bell 20th Anniversary Reunion in a new comedy exclusive from FunnyOrDie.com.
Apparently, she’s got a “shit ton of stuff going on.”
You’re crushing our dreams, woman! We can’t decide which is worse — Kelly flipping off Zack and the crew or the fact that Tiffani uses phrases like “shit ton.”
Lindsay Lohan isn’t the only pop culture notable getting the Hustler porn spoof treatment. Adult film stars will soon take on Bayside High’s own Zack Morris, A.C.Slater, Kelly Kapowski, Lisa Turtle, Jessie Spano, and Screech Powers in a hardcore X-rated parody of the popular Saturday Morning comedy Saved By The Bell.Read the rest of this entry »
