You know, as much as I shouldn't write about the seemingly disgusting post-Screech life of Dustin Diamond, every little sordid detail that comes out demands that I say something about it, if only to point out all the unintentional comedy bubbling just under the surface.

Today, Rush & Molloy of the New York Daily News, who broke the story about a leaked sex tape featuring Diamond, interviewed David Hans Schmidt, who brokered the deal to distribute the video. Schmidt is saying that Diamond is in on the deal -- he even produces a document with his signature -- and is angry that the ex-child star is telling people otherwise. He also doubts that people see all of Diamond in the video. ""I have reason to believe that is not Dustin's [manhood] in the movie," he told the gossips. Heh. "[Manhood]." I wonder what word he actually used? I bet it wasn't "Peepee" or "Weiner". If anyone wants to guess, you can do so in the comments.

Dustin Diamond has been in the "fringe pop culture" news a lot lately, hasn't he? First, he begged for money to save his house, then he got mugged. Now, the man best known for playing Saved By The Bell's nerdy Screech has reached the pinnacle of Z-level celebdom: he's got his very own sex tape.

According to New York Daily News gossip mongers Rush & Molloy, there's a tape floating around where Diamond is en fuego with not one, but two young women, and there's some interesting action going on. How interesting? Let's just say that this is the first time I've seen the term "Dirty Sanchez" printed in a major metropolitan newspaper.

The owners of the videotape are shopping it around to distributors. Diamond's manager was nonplussed by the news: "Dustin has been trying to escape the Screech typecast. So this may help me get more bookings," he told the News.
