Don’t call him Screech or Dustin Diamond will fine you
December 8th, 2006 under Saved by the Bell/City Guys, Unadmirable People. [ Comments: none ]

Now that he’s opted for an exciting career in homemade porn, perhaps actor Dustin Diamond will be able to book more personal appearances during which he regales audiences with stories from his days as Screech on TV’s "Saved By The Bell." If that happens, promoters nationwide will have to adhere to rules promulgated in the contract rider Diamond has previously circulated (a copy of that document can be found below). The 29-year-old Diamond, you see, is very strict when it comes to his billing, which should not be Screech-centric, since that was "one of many characters that Artist portrayed earlier in his career." In fact, violations of Diamond’s billing policy will result in a promoter being levied a $100 fine for every offending ad, flyer, or marquee. Other Diamond demands include "one well-lit parking space" at the venue, two pints of "chilled" chocolate milk in his dressing room, and round-trip airfare. "Artist," though, "will not fly stand by." And when deplaning, he is to "be met at the airport gate with a sign that says: ‘DIAMOND.’" The rider also notes that Diamond does two types of shows: stand-up performances and lectures. When he’s telling jokes (some of which are blue), "You are getting a mature Dustin Diamond not Screech," the rider notes. During a lecture, Diamond speaks about breaking into the business and offers behind-the-scenes stories from "Saved By The Bell." He will also do "the Screech voice, face, and walk." The agreement also allows Diamond to cancel appearances in case he is "called upon to render his services in connection with a motion picture(s), television show(s), legitimate stage play, or Nevada or Atlantic City engagement(s)."

Seriously why would anyone book him in the first place? And then if did book him, why would they want to keep him if they could not promote him as Screech? I mean this guy is a jerk and what else has he done besides Screech and the most boring sex tape in history? He needs to get over himself because we have all gotten over him!

What did Angelina get Brad for his birthday?
December 8th, 2006 under Angelina Jolie, Brangelina. [ Comments: 1 ]

Just before 3 p.m. Thursday, Brad Pitt got his birthday gift from Angelina Jolie as the most famous couple in the world arrived in snowy Mill Run, Pa., to tour Fallingwater. “He’s so hard to buy for,” Jolie told Fallingwater’s Curator of Education Cara Armstrong and Event Coordinator Edna King during the hour-long drive the four shared together from Latrobe Airport to Frank Lloyd Wright’s masterwork. “Brad said he had wanted to experience Fallingwater ever since he took an architectural history course in college,” Armstrong said. “He and I talked quite a bit about design and art. It was amazing how well informed he was about architecture, which was great for me since I’m an ‘architecture geek.’” “Cara and Brad chatted about architecture on the whole trip to Fallingwater,” King said. “You could see the two of them were in heaven.” When they arrived, the couple took a two-hour focus tour led by Armstrong who described the couple as “very gracious and very engaged in the house. As we say in the midwest, you could tell their mothers raised them right.” “Brad said he had a visual sense of Fallingwater but experiencing it in person, hearing the sound of the waterfall cascading under the house and smelling the wood from the fireplace, was better than anything he could have imagined,” Armstrong said. After the tour, Angelina had arranged to have champagne and caviar sent in, which the couple shared in a private birthday celebration in Fallingwater’s living room. Afterward, they invited the staff to join them and encouraged Armstrong and King to take the “snacks” home with them. Arrangements for this impromptu birthday bash began about a week before Thanksgiving when King received a call from Jolie’s personal assistant in Asia. The assistant was reluctant to provide the names of the couple but relented when King assured her she would be discreet. Aside from King and Armstrong, only Fallingwater’s Director Lynda Waggoner knew of their December 7 arrival. The couple was to travel by helicopter from New York originally, but snowy weather conditions necessitated chartering a private jet and then being driven by SUV (with tinted windows) to Fallingwater. Armstrong said the couple enjoyed the ride over, and both remarked how beautiful they thought the Laurel Highlands looked in winter. A National Historic Landmark and an official project of the Save America’s Treasures program, Fallingwater was designated the Commonwealth Treasure of 2000 by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In 2001, National Geographic Traveler magazine named Fallingwater one of 50 “Places of a Lifetime.” On November 2, the National Trust for Historic Preservation honored the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy for Excellence of Stewardship of Historic Sites, commemorating its ongoing preservation work at Fallingwater.

In honor of John Lennon…
December 8th, 2006 under Obits. [ Comments: none ]


Imagine if he lived…
What if he wasn’t gunned down 26 years ago today? Where would music be? What would he have written? What would he have sung? What would he have done? A musical genius taken away from us way too soon.

A Winter Wonderland with Billy Idol

Winter Wonderland


Billy Idol’s MySpace
I have to admit I just love his sugary sweet Christmas videos! I don’t know why, but there is just something about them. Maybe there is a brainwashing effect to them and I am brainwashed? Either way, they are just happy! Tis the season to be happy!!!

Mirror mirror on the wall…who is the ugliest one of them all?
December 8th, 2006 under J-Lo, Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes/Suri. [ Comments: none ]

The four of them together just freaks me out. I know J-Lo is desperate to have a baby, but there are other means besides Scientology like fertility doctors? Back to who is the ugliest, I sincerely can not decide between the newly fat Tom Cruise, brainwashed Katie Holmes, Skeletor Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez.
