"We weren't in rehab and Mr. Belding wasn't my crack dealer.”
Mark-Paul Gosselaar, responding to accusations Dustin "Screech" Diamond makes in his latest attempt to salvage his finances and his fame with no thought of salvaging his dignity. Screech has "written" a "memoir" called Behind the Bell, about his days on the set of Saved by the Bell. Us Weekly has a sneak peak at all the fabricated dirt:
He also alleges costar Mark Paul Gosselaar — who played popular Zack Morris — used stero...
Oh how I love Kirk Cameron. One minute, the world is going along just swimmingly, and then the next, our favorite born-again teen heartthrob is in our face to point out how terrible the world is now that we teach our kids about evolution. Kirk and some of his fundamentalist pals have joined forces to protect poor, innocent college students against the horrors of Darwin's seminal work, The Origin of Species.
"Atheism has been on the rise for years now, and the Bible of the atheists is The Origin of Species," Cameron says. "We have a situation in our country where young people are entering college with a belief in God and exiting with that faith being stripped and shredded. What we want to do is have student make an informed, educated decision before they chuck their faith."
He and other creationists have created thousands of editions of Charles Darwin's landmark work explaining evolutionary theory, with a 50-page introduction that picks apart aspects of Darwin's work and links it to everything from Nazi eugenics to the scientist's alleged "disdain for women." On Nov. 19, three days before the 150th anniversary of the original publication of Origin of Species, Cameron and other religious activists will distribute their books at "the top 50" universities around the country. (You can check out Kirk speaking about it here.) He seems to imply that universities are trying to "censor" his views and may try to interfere with his distribution of literature. I wouldn't worry so much about that, Kirk. It's not that anyone's trying to censor you. It's just that no one cares, because you're loony.
Continues Kirk:
"You can see where [Hitler] clearly takes Darwin's ideas to some of their logical conclusions and compares certain races of people to lower evolutionary life forms. If you take Darwin's theory and extend it to its logical end, it can be used to justify all number of very horrendous things."
OH THAT'S RIGHT. Charles Fucking Darwin's book has been used to justify SO MANY HORRENDOUS THINGS. Like the Inquisition, the Salem Witch Hunts, the Crusades, the War in Iraq ... oh, no, wait. I'm thinking of the Bible.
I just don't understand this shit. I believe in God. As it turns out, I believe in a God so very powerful that it may possibly have occurred to this God to create evolution. And science. Why is this so hard for people to stomach? Why do these people insist that their all-powerful God is somehow incapable of having created a science to explain the universe? Why must they wage a war against atheism and non-Christian beliefs when Jesus' primary message was one of universal love and tolerance? This crazy shit is so far removed from the beautiful and spiritual teachings of Jesus Christ.
Above find a very awesome video response to Kirk's video. Mostly I love it because I love the chick's hair and I want my hair to look like that. />

I have fond memories of Justin Guarini. Not of Justin Guarini on American Idol -- I couldn't stand him from the start -- but of Justin Guarini on my blog. On my little Evil Beet blog on the Blogger platform, the one I started because I loved to write and I loved gossip and I needed an outlet, the one that I started without any sense that, years later, it would be my full-time job. That blog's still alive, if you want to check it out. In fact, it still gets some traffic from search engines. Back i...
Evil Beet is fortunate enough to be a part of a much broader network of very awesome websites -- some owned and managed by me and my company, EB Media, and others owned by RealNetworks, our parent site. There's a lot of great content on those sites, and we're going to start a regular segment around here linking to the best of the content on those other sites. If you're interested, check it out. If you're not -- in the words of Megan Fox in Jennifer's Body -- just move on dot org.

I don't know how many of you watch The Real Housewives of New York, but I do and Kelly Bensimon is my favorite (except for the fact that she beat up her boyfriend. That was not cool.) Like, at first you think she's just pretending to be stupid and then you realize that this is reality television in its purest form. You realize that she's totally serious. I spend a lot of time greeting people in my best Kelly "Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii" voice. Loads of fun, I tell you.
Anyway, Kels is going to be pos...
Remember that whole debacle a few weeks back between Brody Jenner, Playmate Jayde Nicole, Joe Francis and a taser? Me neither. But Jayde remembers. Oh, does she remember and she's hoping that Joe Francis' wallet gets a reminder that it won't soon forget.
Today Jayde filed a lawsuit claiming that she was assaulted and battered. The suit states, "In an intoxicated and uncontrollable rage, defendant Francis, who weighs over 200 lbs, physically attacked plaintiff Nicole, approximately 115 lbs, b...
Gah! Why must supermodels look so fucking perfect even when they're pregnant? Where's the acne? Where's the sagging rack? Where's the vomit? Where's the waddle? My only solace is in knowing that she's married to Buttchin Brady.
Gisele Bundchen was snapped confidently striding up and down the streets of Boston today. While we're at it, why is she even allowed within the state of Massachusetts? Isn't it enough that I have to suffer while my Joint Committee on State Administra...
Jon Gosselin rides his dirt bike around the property in Pennsylvania. While smoking a cigarette. With the wind blowing his shirt tight against his ripped abs. OMG. They're ALL this funny.

Randy Quaid and his wife Evi have a warrant out for their arrest. According to police, they are wanted for burglarizing and defrauding an innkeeper to the tune of $10,000. It sounds like they didn't pay for their rooms after staying at some really nice places.
Looks like it's about time to make another one of those National Lampoon movies!
UPDATE: The Quaids were just arrested in Texas. Evi gave the cops a struggle. Seriously? WTF?...
When talking about Hef's exes, it's virtually impossible to resist the temptation of posting pics of them deep throating a wiener. Speaking of oral skills, Holly Madison is getting her own show.
I find it difficult to believe that society has been craving a show like this -- though I guess we always crave T & A -- but prepare because Holly is set to star in Planet Holly. It will be filmed in Vegas and will center around her life as a burlesque dancer.

Shortly before his passing, DJ AM filmed eight episodes of an Intervention-like show for MTV titled, Gone Too Far. The basic premise of the show focuses on AM confronting users in a tough-love manner, urging them to enter rehab. After his death at the end of August, the network scrapped the October 5th premiere date and shelved the project. A few weeks have passed and now MTV has been communicating with Adam's family in hopes that they'll bless the show and agree on an airdate.
