JESSICA SIMPSON IS BACK TO BEING AN AIR-HEAD AGAIN:

We haven't heard much idiocy from JESSICA SIMPSON for quite some time. But I am happy to report, IT HAS RETURNED. The other day on Twitter, Jessica said, quote, "[I] love it when the lyric of a song asks me a question."

-Then, her next post read, quote, "Is 'asks' even a word? If not, sorry 4 my layziness with grammar." (--Notice not only the fact that Jess isn't sure whether "asks" is a word . . . but also the spelling of "layziness".) Welcome back Jess!!

DREW BARRYMORE loves dolphins so much, she's got images and statues of them all over her house. But she takes her love even further than that. According to the "National Enquirer", she actually thinks she used to BE one.

A so-called "friend" says that Drew once told her, quote, "They are just really special creatures and highly evolved. To tell you the truth, I'm convinced I was a dolphin in another life and that's why I'm so attracted to them."

DUSTIN DIAMOND *DID* WRITE A "TELL-ALL" BOOK ON "SAVED BY THE BELL" . . . AND IT'S COMING OUT SOON:

DUSTIN DIAMOND . . . who, of course, played Screech on "Saved By the Bell" . . . HAS written a "tell-all" book about his time on the show. The book, which is titled "Behind the Bell", was first announced last summer . . . when it was said to include details on, quote, "sexual escapades among cast members, drug use, and hardcore partying."

For what it's worth, the initial publisher, Gotham Books, dropped out of the project a few months ago . . . supposedly because Dustin's manuscript contained a lot of absurd claims that Gotham deemed "unverifiable."

Anyway, "Behind the Bell" has found a new publisher . . . (--Transit Publishing, which just released that "tell-all" MICHAEL JACKSON book, "Unmasked", by "journalist" Ian Halperin.) It's scheduled to come out on September 29th.

(--MARK-PAUL GOSSELAAR . . . (--a.k.a. Zack) . . . recently mocked the idea of Screech releasing a salacious "Saved By the Bell" exposé. He said, quote, "What is he going to say? We were banging groupies at 14?" --He added, quote, "I can't wait to read his book, because I don't have a memory of a lot of the shows. Maybe it was because I was doing lines off of the audience members' asses. I'm sure he's going to write something crazy like that."

By the way, it wasn't Dustin's decision not to take part in "People" magazine's new reunion issue . . . as it turns out, he was NEVER INVITED. A "People" spokeswoman tells RadarOnline, quote, "[The other] cast members were not comfortable with including him." (--RadarOnline says they were "uncomfortable" BECAUSE of Dustin's book.)

KEVIN FEDERLINE IS FILMING HIS REALITY SHOW PILOT:

KEVIN FEDERLINE began filming the pilot of his new reality show last week. There's still no official line on the series . . . but it sounds like it'll be a VH1 show, which will also star his new girlfriend, VICTORIA PRINCE. (--It may also feature his two kids with BRITNEY SPEARS . . . three-year-old SEAN PRESTON and two year-old JAYDEN JAMES.)

K-Fed reportedly shot at least two scenes in Las Vegas . . . one at the Hard Rock Hotel's pool . . . and another at a Vegas club, where he and Victoria were partying. (--We'll let you know when we have something OFFICIAL on the show.)
