Darius McCrary -- who apparently sings now -- tells TMZ he's actually going on tour with the 90s R&B group ... and the Queen Bee might be taking over Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes' spot!

How's this for disturbing: Accused wife murderer Drew Peterson called into Mancow's radio show this morning to -- get this -- try out a few of his new prison jokes.

Drew tried out his hysterically unfunny material by calling collect from the Will County jail in Illinois, where he's being held on a $20 million bond.

DESCRIPTION: Male, medium build ... and wearing an empty Bud Light box as a mask!!!!

Sure, he's a moron, but the stupid disguise worked -- cops are still looking for this idiot.

UPDATE: We just obtained this video of the beer box bandit in action, in which he uses a green towel to make the clerk believe he's carrying a firearm.

The #1 source for drinking water in space ... is #1.

Astronauts on the International Space Station had their first taste of liquid goodness from their new urine recycling system -- which magically transforms pee, sweat and water condensed from exhaled air to create a nice cool glass of aqua. Who's thirsty!?

But here's the crazy part -- not only do the astronauts think the final product tastes great ... but they even cracked jokes about it, claiming the water came with this special warning: "drink this when real water is over 200 miles away."

It's hilarious in theory, but when a student actually grabbed a snake from his biology class and tried to use it as a jump rope... the cops weren't laughing.

Pittsburgh police claim some dumbass 17-year-old took a living, breathing snake out of his biology class Monday and tried to play some double dutch with it.

Fortunately, the snake survived and is currently being examined by a vet. As for the kid -- cops say he'll be charged with theft and cruelty to animals.

The shuttle (which is only 37m long and has a 24m wingspan) was traveling 17,500 mph at 350 miles above the Earth's surface -- and Lagault says he only had .8 seconds to get the shot. The sun looms in the background a mere 91 million miles away.

An eager fan pants'd the rapper as he performed at a concert in San Diego yesterday, but still, you can't really blame her -- Flo Rida got the process going when he decided to sag his already baggy pants.

If you happen to be an exhibitionist, the Happiest Place on Earth just got a little happier -- 'cause Disney is dropping their last line of defense against roller-coaster boobie flashers.

It's all over rides like Splash Mountain -- aka Flash Mountain -- where some people would whip out certain body parts in the hopes that the park camera would catch the nudity ... and then display the naked shot on the photo preview screens for all to see.

Disney had created "image screening positions" to prevent the XXX shots from going public. But now, execs have told the OC Register the screeners have been "redeployed" -- and that they no longer need to monitor the rides because "actual inappropriate behaviors by guests are rare."

But before you run out and bare all, Disney claims they're still going to patrol the park for flashers ... and anyone who tries to turn the place into their own adult Fantasyland will still get a taste of Mickey's size 24.

Cops tell TMZ a man was arrested last night after jumping on stage during Britney Spears' concert at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut.

Connecticut State Police say they arrested 20-year-old Kyle King -- who they say had definitely been drinking -- after he charged on stage during Britney's encore performance of "Womanizer."

Security and Brit's backup dancers were able to stop King before he could come in contact with Spears -- and he was arrested for breach of peace.

The CSP says after King was taken into custody, he was being highly uncooperative -- so they also booked him for interfering with police.

He was released this morning after paying a $250 bond and is due in Norwich Superior Court on June 18.

UPDATE: In the video, you can clearly see the man jump on stage and try to bust a move with Britney, before being hauled away by her dancers and security.

UPDATE: Despite what cops previously told us, they now tell us he wasn't booked for interfering with police.

Miranda Lambert is set to perform tomorrow at the four day event in Stillwater -- where there will be enough beer, music and fried bull balls to last you a lifetime.

No word if there are any sack races at the event.
