Ladies and Gentlemen, I hereby set forth to prove: Barry Williams will do anything for $50.

It is a big claim, I know, but I think that after you have taken a few moments to examine the evidence below, you will come to the same conclusion. He'll do anything, ANYTHING, for $50.

FEAR FACTOR: Why did you agree to come on Fear Factor?

BARRY WILLIAMS: I've been excited about doing this show. I'm a fan of the show. I'm kind of looking at this as my wilderness challenge adventure, kind of a chance to face my fears and move past them. Of course, the competition is always good. And the other reason I showed up is because of all the pretty girls you've put together on this show [laughs].

The John Kerwin Show 

That's right...The Hottest Coolest White Boy on the Planet

Watch Barry Williams on the John Kerwin Show, and be sure to stick around for the live excerpt of the Real Greg Brady.

Also, look for these key quotes in the interview:

Barry Williams: Was your Dad straight?

Barry Williams: I've been with your girlfriend...both of them.

Barry Williams: I didn't know this, but Danny Bonaduce is partly demonic.

Barry Williams: I took my lumps for Lupus.

Barry Williams: You know you're a star when you get your name on the cup.
John Kerwin: Especially when it's a sticker.

Celebrity Boot Camp 

Exhibit I - Sept. 30, 2002

At Celebrity Boot Camp, drill instructors put celebrities in their place for a chance to win $50,000. Barry Williams appeared with others like Fabrice Morvan (one-half of Milli Vanilli), Nikki Schieler Ziering (Price Is Right spokesmodel), and Kato Kaelin.

BTW - Barry didn't win. He lost to Coolio.

Peter Gabriel's "The Barry Williams Show" 

Exhibit J

Peter Gabriel wrote a song called "The Barry Williams Show". He did this without realizing there was an actor named Barry Williams. After learning this, he invited Barry to appear in the music video (probably to save face).

Barry's role in the video is not the roll of "Barry Williams". He merely plays an audience member with (if even) 5 seconds of screen time.
Oh, well. I guess it was nice just to be invited.

Casual Lingo 

Exhibit L

This is probably Barry William's most boring $50. It was event for which shoes were not required on audience members, apparently. By the way....he didn't win.

Exhibit M - October 7, 2006

Barry Williams appeared at the Sam's Club in Palm Desert, CA to meet Sam's Club members. To boost attendance at the event, free one-day membership cards were printed in the newspaper. (So, I guess he was there to meet whoever wanted to meet him).

I thought that that would be obvious, but apparently not as I have received fan mail addressed to Barry. This site is not an official site and is in no way affiliated with BarryWilliams.com.
