Mark-Paul Gosselaar can't wait to read his former Saved by the Bell co-star Dustin Diamond's upcoming book Behind the Bell.

"He's going to tell all the dirty laundry that was in Saved by the Bell. I can't wait!" Gosselaar, 34, told the the LA Times on Sunday.

So what went on behind the scenes?

"Was I in a club at 16, smoking cigarettes, taking a drink from people? Yeah I was!" Gosselaar said. "I did the thing that normal kids do. Did I go to house parties and do keg stands and beer bongs? That's what kids do! I didn't live in a bubble, but I was a normal kid. Nowadays these kids are trying to have an ounce of normalcy and they have a camera in their face."

Diamond's book promises to detail "sexual escapades among cast members, drug use, and hardcore partying," New York Magazine reported.

Now the actor is celebrated his twelve year wedding anniversary with his wife Lisa Ann Russell on August 26. They are parents to kids Michael, 4, and Ava, 2.

"Our weekends are pretty quiet with two kids," Gosselaar told the LA Times. "We try to get a baby-sitter for one of the nights and go to a nice restaurant. We're in that phase of our lives, the kids are that age where we're taking vacations together now"

Gosselaar stars in TNT's new legal drama Raising the Bar, which debuts Monday.
