Did you ever wonder what life was like behind the scenes at BaySide High? Over the years you may have heard the rumors about the sexually active and drug using cast members! Well the wait will soon be over! This Labor Day, Lifetime is releasing a tell-all docudrama about the making of “Saved By The Bell! Sounds pretty revealing, are you ready?
The movie will be partially based on cast member Dustin Diamond’s scathing 2009 memoir “Behind the Bell.” Diamond, who played nerdy Screech, dished on sex, drug use and other gossip.
Here are some crazy facts we’ve heard over the years! 1. Diamond — hardly the most handsome and masculine actor — nevertheless claimed to have bedded some 2,000 “chicks” during his time on the show. He met them on press tours, at malls and on the set, but it turns out his favorite pickup spot was Disneyland.
2. Diamond claims that “Saved by the Bell” leads Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Mario Lopez cycled their way through female stars Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, Lark Voorhies and Elizabeth Berkley. Diamond also suggests Gosselaar and Thiessen were having sexy closed-door meetings with the producer in his office.
3.In 1993, Lopez, who played the show’s jock, A.C. Slater, was accused of date-raping an 18-year-old. Diamond claims that NBC paid off the accuser to the tune of $50,000.
Hey Diamond, I was always told Loose Lips sink ships!
