Dustin Diamond

Dustin Diamond is one of the most recognizable faces in show business today. He attended Zion Lutheran School in Anaheim, California. At the age of 8 he was discovered in a department store imitating a mannequin. While in the fifth grade, he auditioned for and was selected out of more than 5000 hopefuls for the role of Samuel "Screech" Powers in the DISNEY/NBC television series "Good Morning Miss Bliss". His character was carried over to NBC's Television series "Saved By The Bell" which ran for 10 seasons. "Saved By The Bell" is still seen in syndication 16 times per week in 105 countries.

With television, movies, and screenwriting it's hard to believe he also tours the country as a stand-up comic selling out colleges and comedy clubs around the country. Dustin is also an accomplished musician and songwriter. He's the bass player in his band SALTY THE POCKETKNIFE, which just finished recording their debut album for Sonance Records. The self-titled record was released nationally on October 21, 2003.

Dustin is no stranger to the big screen either. He has appeared in more than 18 feature films, including Made (which earned him a nomination for Best Cameo at the 2002 MTV Movie Awards), Jane White Is Sick and Twisted, and Dickie Roberts with David Spade.

I don't know who writes these bios, but what a load of crap that is.

He also gained some fafarazzi points by starring in some adult entertainment. But yeah, I can see why they wouldn't mention that in the PR bio.

Heppy - I cracked up when I read that too. In fact, before fafarazzi, I'd NEVER heard of the guy.

From what's I've heard, he rubbed everybody the wrong way during his stint on CFC. I guess every season has to have the token jerk.

I was like, Dustin Diamond... hm, where have I heard that name? And then I see his picture, ah! Screech! I know him well. I remember he was so funny as a kid, but I've heard something about him that was really weird.

Eh, I'll still be rooting for him.

OK... so where is the spare tire the double chin. Maybe it's his oversize ego that needs to lose weight.

I'm just happy he's on THIS show and not on Last Comic Standing.

PurplesAFruit · 04-16-2007, 10:03 PM

oh, all of the d-man's weight is in that big ole ass and legs he's got on him. If you see him walking away, I swear you'd think it was a big-booty jewish woman who needs to get her fro in control.

Another fame whore who I doubt is on the show to truly lose some weight. Sometimes I wonder about the people they throw on this show. Seems like this one is there to try and build up his new "bad boy" image. As if word alone that this guy had a porn tape out didn't make sex drop 200 points on the stock market already.

Apparently he didn't sell enough of his "Pay Screech's Mortgage" t-shirts.
