If you do, you probably haven't been paying attention this week, as her portrayer, Maureen McCormick, has undertaken a press tour meant to despoil her clean-cut image once and for all. First, McCormick regaled a horrified Today audience with tales of congenital syphilis, then she took to The Morning Show with Mike & Juliet to reveal her coked-out near-miss with the Indiana Jones franchise. Now, McCormick has taped an appearance on Howard Stern's Howard TV set to air later tonight, and in the clip excerpted after the jump, she discusses her painful anal sex experiences and a drugged, aborted date with Steve Martin. Somewhere, a horrified Carol Brady is shaking her stylish flip. Enjoy!

This one, you see, involved Indiana Jones:

Maureen says she hit rock bottom shortly after auditioning for Steven Spielberg for his then-film, Raiders of the Lost Ark. "It was one of the worst auditions of my life," she says. "I was asked to meet Steven Spielberg. I was high and I had missed my meeting with him. I was totally spaced out... been up for days. He offered me an orange...he probably thought I was sick."

Just think of the alternate universe in which Marcia Brady would have replaced Karen Allen in Raiders of the Lost Ark, thus ensuring a post-Celebrity Fit Club comeback in this year's Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Sadly, McCormick's involvement in the franchise likely would have led to a whole new round of unsettling revelations ("One time, while high on opium, I took on Harrison, John Rhys-Davies, and that guy whose face melted off"), but after South Park has had its turn with Indy, is there really any more despoiling left to be had?
