The Princeton Review has once again ranked the Top 20 College Party Schools.  When I was at MTSU they were at the top of this list back in the 90’s.  I then happened to be at LSU when they topped the Princeton list right after the turn of the century.   The survey was conducted amongst 120,000 college students.

Here’s the top 20 party schools as ranked by The Princeton Review:

1. University of Florida, Gainesville, Fla.

2. University of Mississippi, University, Miss.

3. Penn State University, University Park, Pa.

4. West Virginia University, Morgantown, W.Va.

5. Ohio University, Athens, Ohio.

6. Randolph-Macon College, Ashland, Va.

7. University of Georgia, Athens, Ga.

8. University of Texas, Austin, Texas.

9. University of California-Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara, Calif.

10. Florida State University, Tallahassee, Fla.

11. University of New Hampshire, Durham, N.H.

12. University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa.

13. University of Colorado, Boulder, Co.

14. Indiana University, Bloomington, Ind.

15. Tulane University, New Orleans, La.

16. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, Ill.

17. Arizona State University, Tempe, Ariz.

19. University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Ala.

20. Loyola University-New Orleans, New Orleans, La.

Here is a list we have put together here at Bumpshack of the ‘Top 10 Best Grunge Singers of All-Time’. As with all lists I am sure you might feel this person was slighted or another person doesn’t belong. The beautiful thing about Top 10 lists is you can agree, disagree, or debate about them for eternity. The decision for #1 came down came down to an intense and heated debate between Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain and Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder.

The Top 10 Best Grunge Singers of All-Time

1. Kurt Cobain (Nirvana) - Had he not committed suicide, what would we think of him? Did he cement his own glory with his death? We will never know these answers. Cobain was eccentric, brilliant, deranged, and one of the most gifted lyricists of the late 20th century. Like many on this list, heroin and other drugs led to his tragic suicide back in 1994. Nirvana’s last two albums Nevermind and In Utero are two of the greatest grunge/rock albums of all-time. Cobain’s performance on MTV’s ‘Unplugged’ in 1993 will forever be seared into our minds and hearts as one of the greatest live performances of all-time.

Best Album: Nevermind

2. Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam) - One word: longevity. Pearl Jam still rocks arenas, and Vedder’s lasting appeal is a big reason why. Pearl Jam has a huge loyal following. Eddie has been the Neil Young of our generation. He has always been big on the environment, political matters and finding ways to incorporate those themes into Pearl Jam’s music. Eddie and Pearl Jam even battled Ticketmaster’s monopoly on selling concert tickets. Eddie’s voice is one of the most powerful voices that has ever been laid on vinyl. A strong argument could be made for him being the best grunge singer of all-time instead of Cobain.

Best Album: Ten

3. Chris Cornell (Soundgarden, Audioslave) - Arguably the most versatile guy on this list. He always seems to succeed, no matter the sound he puts out. However, smoking has taken some of the grandeur from his once proud pipes. After the breakup of Soundgarden, Chris went on to mega-success with the super-group Audioslave. He created and was the frontman for Temple of the Dog which was a tribute album/band put together to honor his late roommate Andrew Wood (see #9).

This started out as the ‘Top 5 Britney Spears Moments of 2007′ and then became the ‘Top 15′, ‘Top 20′, ‘Top 25′ and finally the ‘Top 35 Britney Spears Moments of 2007′. Brit should have known it was going to be a crazy year when she started it off by collapsing at a New Year’s Eve party. Then she quickly went on to check into rehab, shave her head, check back in and out of rehab, before attempting rehab a third time. The rest of her 2007 was just as rocky.

Here is a Look at ‘Britney Spears Top 35 Moments of 2007′

1. Britney Goes from Bald Eagle to Bald Head - Brit’s biggest story of the year was when she shockingly shaved her head bald after returning to Cali from a one day attempt at rehab in Aruba.
2. Britney Spears Hits Rock Bottom - These photos of Britney Spears showed she was partying too hard and that it was all catching up with her and making her age prematurely.
3. Britney Collapses at New Year’s Eve Party - Brit got the year off to a banging start when she collapsed and passed out at a New Year’s Eve party in Las Vegas.
4. Britney Spears Enters, Leaves Rehab in Same Day - She mysteriously was in rehab for one day before checking out before midnight in Aruba the day before shaving her head bald.
5. Britney Ditches Rehab Again - Her second shot at rehab didn’t go any better as Spears quickly checked herself out again.
6. Britney Spears VMA Performance (video) - One of the worst performances by a professional entertainer on such a large platform. Britney was overweight, out of sync and rhythm, as this performance become one of Britney’s most laughable moments ever.
7. Britney Spears Claims to be the Anti-Christ - Britney being Britney as she claimed she was in fact the anti-Christ.
8. Britney to Pay K-Fed $20,000 for Life - Brit’s bad year didn’t mean K-Fed didn’t cash in as he was awarded $20,000 a month in support from Britney for himself and their boys.
9. Britney Spears Loses Custody of Her Kids - Only people in the project lose their kids right? I don’t think anyone could have predicted Britney losing custody of her two boys to K-Fed of all people but she did.
10. Britney Spears Booked for Hit and Run - Britney ran her car into a parked car and didn’t report it. This was quickly dropped once Britney agreed to pay for the damages.
11. Kleptomaniac Britney Spears Steals Cigarette Lighter - All had been quiet on the Britney front for a couple of weeks when Brit decided to steal a dollar lighter from a North Hollywood gas station.
12. Britney Spears Crotch Shot Version 3.5 - Crotch shots are not a rare thing for the former pop teen. This was just another disgusting example of Britney’s beaver begging for attention.
13. Britney Spears Collection of Sex Tapes Stolen - A world without a Britney Spears sex tape would be like the Pope not owning a Bible.
14. Photo Shoot from Hell for Britney Spears - Brit’s psycho and drug enhanced behavior ruined this photo shoot and threatened her career.
15. Give Me More Video Features Topless Britney - Britney took her top off and grinded all over a stripper pole in her first video for her ‘Blackout’ album.
16. Cellulite, Britney Spears and a Bikini - The title sums up these less than flattering photos of Ms. Spears.
17. Britney and Isaac Cohen Blow $40 Grand on Vegas Night - The new K-Fed faded fast but not before hooking up with Spears in a $40,000-a-night hotel room.
18. Britney Spears Wacked Out Halloween Costume - Attention starved Britney putting on a mid-riff baring leotard begging for attention on Ghouls day.
19. Britney Spears Calls Judge ‘Old Fart’ and ‘Mean’ - The always respectful Britney called her custody judge a few names and then lost custody of her two boys.
20. Britney Spears Strips Down to Her Lingerie - These photos showed that Britney will strip down to her panties with just about anyone and for any camera.
21. Britney Spears Gains Monitored Visitation Rights - A judge finally allowed Britney to have visitation rights with her two boys as long as a court approved monitor was present for the visits.
22. Where Do You See Britney Spears in 10 Years - Over 50% of Bumpshack readers sadly believe that Britney Spears will be dead in 10 years.
23. Say It Ain’t So: Britney Pumps Lips Up - After eating her way to a plumped up stomach and thighs, Britney gets her lips botoxed.
24. Britney Spears White Trash Lingerie Bikini Day - No swimsuit, no problem for Brit as her and her friends stripped down to their underwear for an impromptu ocean dip.
25. Britney Spears So Called Come-Back Performance - This wasn’t exactly Elvis’ 68 comeback special. Britney lip synced to her songs while hiding behind more talented backup dancers.
26. Britney Spears Runs Over Photographer - I can’t really blame Britney for running over the foot of the paparazzi. She is tailed by 30 pap cars a day. I am surprised she hasn’t intentionally run over one of them and killed them.
27. Bodyguard Speaks of Britney Spears Drug Use - This is about as breaking news as steroids in baseball. The better question would be what are her favorite drugs.
28. Britney Drops F-Bomb on New Song - If Michael Jackson can drop the f-bomb on his comeback album then it’s absolutely necessary for Brit to do the same on ‘Blackout’.
29. Illusionist Criss Angel Bangs Britney Spears - Criss Angel banged Britney Spears while helping her choreograph her VMA performance, then after it flopped, said he had nothing to do with it.
30. Britney Spears Fries K-Fed with Pan to the Head - Redneck lady decided to whip K-Fed upside the head with a frying pan. I am just surprised that Kevin didn’t flip and kill her…but then again that would have required an effort on his part.
31. Britney’s Mop of Hair Sold on Ebay - Smart move by the hair salon where Britney took the buzzer and shaved her hair off. They should have auctioned it off for a live pay-per-view drug test of the mop.
32. K-Fed Settles with Britney for $1 Million - K-Fed is truly my hero.
33. Police Tell Britney Spears to Slow Down - I have no clue how Britney was speeding in Los Angeles with the traffic jam she constantly creates. She probably had a 100 yards of traffic free asphalt and floored it. I don’t blame her.
34. Kiss from Madonna Cursed Britney Spears - 25 reasons why that kiss 3 years ago with Madonna sent Britney’s career into a devastating and unrecoverable tailspin.
35. Britney Totally ‘Wiggin’ Out - It always makes sense to voluntarily shave all of your hair off then cover it up with an ugly wig.

Global soccer icon David Beckham became the $250-million man when he (and wife Victoria Beckham) moved to Beverly Hills to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy of the MLS. Between his tremendous talent, English charm, stylish wardrobe, and slick haircuts, Becks is single-handedly making soccer relevant stateside.

Bumpshack Exclusive: Many people often ask me what places they should see on their trip to Hollywood before they come out here. So I thought it would make a great excuse to come up with this list of the ‘Top 10 Places to Visit in Hollywood‘. Of course there are many more, so feel free to drop a comment with your favorite places and landmarks.

1. Hollywood Sign- A must see for any visitor to Hollywood. The sign, erected in 1923, originally said ‘Hollywoodland’ and was an advertisement for a housing development in the Hollywood Hills. Today it stands as the most recognized symbol and must see landmark for tourists. It is also the easiest landmark in Hollywood to see.



2. Paris Hilton’s Home- Located in the Hollywood Hills, on Kings Road, this has become the current day must see landmark for Parisites and the XY generation. Almost everything Paris related during the last three years, either started at 1467 N. Kings Road, or it ended there after one of her DUI arrests. The home recently went on the market for $4.25 million.



3. Grauman’s Chinese Theater- The most famous movie theater in the world where almost every giant premiere of the last one hundred years has taken place. It is located at 6925 Hollywood Boulevard and is very distinctive looking. In front of the theater of hundreds of hand and foot prints of the most famous actors of all-time. Many with personal notes addressed to Sid Grauman who opened the theater.



4. Laurel Canyon Country Store- A hidden treasure in the Hollywood Hills at 2108 Laurel Canyon. The store has been a hang out and throw back grocery store for residents of the Hills for decades. Once a year hundreds of Laurel Canyon residents meet in front of the store for the annual Canyon Country Store photo. In the basement of the building is Pace restaurant, which has become a hot place among celebrities trying to enjoy a quiet dinner. Right behind the store is Love Street and the house Jim Morrison lived at during the later years of his life.



5. Hollywood Bowl-Every major artist worth their weight in salt has played at the Hollywood Bowl. It’s an outside concert venue that is shaped like a bowl and fits snug in the Hollywood Hills at 2301 North Highland Avenue. Artists from Bob Dylan to Motley Crue to Frank Sinatra to Johnny Cash have played at the Bowl.



6. Hollywood Walk of Fame- Not many people make it to Hollywood without seeing the stars on the Walk of Fame. They are all up and down Hollywood Boulevard and one can’t really miss them. The ‘Walk’ is probably one of the most overrated places to see in Hollywood. It has been so copied at other tourists attractions around the world that it has diminished the allure of the original. Most celebs usually pay the $25,000 sponsorship fee before the release of a big project or film to be placed on the Walk of Fame.



7. Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles- This is the place for some good ole’ greasy southern fried chicken that comes with some syrupy waffles. A weird combination that goes down smoother than fresh buttermilk. Roscoe’s is mentioned in many pop culture references including The Notorious B.I.G. song ‘Going Back to Cali’ where he raps about “frequently flossing hoes at Roscoe’s”.



8. Mulholland Drive- A beautiful curvy and long road that sits atop of the Hollywood Hills and splits Hollywood from the San Fernando Valley. Mulholland Drive has been featured in several movies and is home to many movie stars including Jack Nicholson, Warren Beaty and the late Marlon Brando.  There is even a movie called Mulholland Drive that is actually pretty good.



9. Capital Records Tower- Easily recognizable to the average fan of Hollywood. It was the first circular office building when it was built back in 1956. A little known fact about the Capital Records Tower is a blinking light at the top that spells out Hollywood in Morse Code.



10. 8763 Wonderland Avenue- Home of the ‘Wonderland Killings‘ in 1981 that is portrayed in the movie Boogie Nights. The late porn star John Holmes was accused of the killings before being acquitted. The killings were the result of a big drug deal gone bad. Holmes was at the scene when the murders took place. His girlfriend at the time, said after his death in 1988, that John had come to her house the following morning with blood all over his clothes.

Jay-Z, the man with the beats, NBA team and Beyonce, also seems to have the most money among rappers.

The rap icon, aka Shawn Carter, is No. 1 on the site’s list of “Hip-Hop Cash Kings,” based solely on 2006 income. He banked an estimated $34 million, Forbes.com said Thursday.

Jay-Z, president and CEO of Def Jam Recordings, released his 11th studio album, “Kingdom Come,” which sold around 2 million copies. Jay-Z, 37, is also part owner of the New Jersey Nets and has endorsement deals with Budweiser, Hewlett-Packard and General Motors.

The Top 10 Richest Rap Moguls

1. Jay-Z -$34 Million
2. 50 Cent - $32 Million
3. Diddy - $28 Million
4. Timbaland - $21 Million
5. Dr. Dre - $20 Million
6. Eminem - $18 Million
7. Snoop Dogg - $17 Million
   Pharell - $17 Million
   Kanye West - $17 Million
   Scott Storch - $17 Million
8. Ludacris - $16 Million
   T.I. - $16 Million
9. Outkast - $14 Million
   Lil’ John - $14 Million
10. Ice Cube - $13 Million

Number of rappers on this list who go by their real name? Three, that would be Kanye West, Pharell Williams and Scott Storch.

Who would you guess to be at the top of Maxim’s Hot 100 List?  I would put Lindsay Lohan on the list but nowhere near the top. However, Lohan garners the top spot ahead of the likes of Scarlett Johansson (#3), Jessica Alba (#2), Jessica Biel (#5) and Christina Aguilera (#4) among others.

Ashlee Simpson came in at #16 while big sis Jessica Simpson ranked #41. (Whodathunkit? Ashley is now hotter than Jessica). Ashley Olsen placed 34th, however twin sister Mary-Kate didn’t make the list. (C’mon, they’re twins LOL).

For you Grey’s Anatomy fans Katherine Heigl was ranked #14.  Finally a list without Beyonce (#13) in the top 10.  Where was Rosie?

Last week Lexie gave us her Top 10 Hottest Southern Hunks.  This week she is playing fair with us guys and giving us her Top 10 Sexiest Southern Women.  The Lone Star State is well represented with the top four.
Here is a sneak peak at some of the list

1. Eva Longoria- Corpus Christi, Texas
2. Jessica Simpson- Abilene, Texas
3. Beyonce Knowles- Houston, Texas
4. Jennifer Garner- Houston, Texas
5. Faith Hill- Jackson, Mississippi

People magazine has made a list of the ‘Top 5 Celeb Feuds of 2006′.  My personal #1 and favorite feud has been the one between Paris Hilton and Shanna Moakler.

5. PATRICK VS. ISAIAH
Sure, they save lives in the operating room of Grey’s Anatomy. But in October, when the two were preparing to film a scene, Dempsey and Washington were at each other’s throats. Harsh words were traded (”I lost my cool,” Washington admitted to PEOPLE), but in the end no punches were thrown. And, because of the incident, Dempsey told Oprah Winfrey: “I think the whole company’s tighter.”

4. LINDSAY VS. PARIS
If Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie could make peace, isn’t there hope for Lohan and Hilton? A guy — Paris’s on-again beau Stavros Niarchos, with whom Lohan reportedly had a fling — was reportedly at the root of the ladies’ beef. But Lindsay and Paris run hot and cold: On Nov. 27, a day after the two had yet another row, they hit L.A. hot spot Guy’s with Britney Spears, and they’ve been spotted together since.

3. SHANNA VS. PARIS
The claws came out when the Dancing with the Stars star and the hotel heiress exchanged words — and, reportedly, blows — on Oct. 4 at L.A.’s Hyde Lounge. The catalyst for it all? Hilton had been spotted smooching with Moakler’s ex, rocker Travis Barker, at various hot spots. Don’t mess with my man!

2. MICHAEL VS. RUSH
In October, when conservative talk-show host Limbaugh suggested that Fox exaggerated his Parkinson’s disease-related tremors in an ad for a Democratic politician (he was “either off his medication or acting,” Limbaugh said), Fox shot back that his medication was working “really well” and his rep called Limbaugh’s remarks “shameful.” In a half-apology, Limbaugh said he was sorry if Fox wasn’t acting — but accused the actor of allowing his illness to be exploited.

1. ROSIE VS. DONALD
O’Donnell stirred the pot on The View when she mocked Trump for acting like a “moral compass for 20-year-olds in America” when he allowed Miss USA Tara Conner to keep her crown after reports emerged of her alleged alcohol and drug abuse. Likening him to a snake-oil salesman, she ranted about his failed marriages and financial well-being. Trump’s response? “Rosie’s a loser,” he told PEOPLE, threatening a lawsuit. “I look forward to taking lots of money from my nice fat little Rosie.” Stay tuned…

Britney Spears has been named the ‘Worst Celebrity Dog Owner’ by two dog magazines.

“Britney was the overwhelming choice” for worst celebrity dog owner for 2006, Hilary O’Hagan, editor of The New York Dog and The Hollywood Dog magazines, said in a statement.

“She once had three Chihuahuas … and never left home without at least one of them on her arm,” O’Hagan said. “As soon as she met K-Fed and had kids they (the dogs) disappeared.”

Paris Hilton, 2005’s “worst” winner, placed second for “treating her dogs like accessories,” the magazines said.

Britney continues to piss away the public good will she built up after separating from K-Fed.

A look at some of the more obvious selection’s from Blender’s 50 Worst Artists of All-Time.  I totally agree with the selection of Master P. I have wondered for years what talent he has…but he obviously is a smart guy, who saw a market, and has made millions off of it.

48 MASTER P
The dumbest of the Dirty South
In the late ’90s, rapper and label head Percy Miller copycatted G-funk, simplified it and launched a fleet of indistinguishable MCs wrapped in cheap-looking, jewel-riddled artwork. P’s worst offense was his solo work (his obnoxious breakout single, “Make Em Say Ugh,� consisted of little more than a repeated groan). Like a crawfish-suckin’ P. Diddy, he has, shockingly, earned millions from his No Limit imprint, which includes a clothing line, a publishing house — and even a phone company.
Appalling fact Master P had a Ferrari custom-painted in a Gucci-logo pattern.
Worst CD Only God Can Judge Me (No Limit, 1999)

41 WHITESNAKE
Dumb and dumberer
Led by ex–Deep Purple frontman David Coverdale, Whitesnake’s ’80s success with their karaoke Led Zeppelin routine can be explained only by the public’s enduring love for the double entendre, as exemplified on such songs as “Slide It In,� “Slow Poke Music� and “Spit It Out.�
Worst CD Slip of the Tongue (Geffen, 1989)

28 CRASH TEST DUMMIES
They said Brad Roberts’s voice was so deep it could be heard only by whales. Not true, sadly
If you want to be recognized as serious recording artists with a whimsical, folksy bent, it’s probably best not to notch your only hit with a daft novelty song based around the world’s silliest lead vocal and title it “Mmm, Mmm, Mmm, Mmm.� The remainder of God Shuffled His Feet, this Canadian band’s second album, was much worse. They released I Don’t Care That You Don’t Mind in 2001. No one cared.
Appalling fact They’re Canadian.
Worst CD A Worm’s Life (Arista, 1996)

13 MICK JAGGER
Even Bill Wyman laughs at Mick’s solo records
Given the roll call of A-list rockers who have appeared on the Stones frontman’s four solo ventures, even a tone-deaf 6-year-old could have produced something you’d want to hear twice, or at least once. Alas, it seems, there’s never a tone-deaf 6-year-old around when you need one. Even on 1993’s not-entirely-grim Wandering Spirit, produced by Rick Rubin, Jagger does his damnedest to ruin things by inexplicably singing a sea shanty. That’s right — a sea shanty!
Appalling fact In his native U.K., Jagger’s latest solo release, Goddess in the Doorway, sold just 954 copies on its first day of release.
Worst CD Goddess in the Doorway (Virgin, 2001)

4 KENNY G
This guy really blows!
Hated equally by jazz and rock fans, Kenny Gorelick’s limpid instrumentals and obsequious cameos helped turn the soprano sax solo into pop music’s most feared cliché. He started his career with fusion hack Jeff Lorber, and his 1986 album, Duotones, established a steady market for anodyne, minimal background music, an aesthetic that reached its zenith in 1997 when “The G� set a world record by holding a single note for 45 minutes.
Appalling fact He graduated magna cum laude from the University of Washington with a degree in accounting.
Worst CD Classics in the Key of G (Arista, 1999)

1 INSANE CLOWN POSSE
They sound even stupider than they look
Two trailer-trash types who wear face paint, pretend to be a street gang and drench cult devotees in cheap soda called Faygo, Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope are more notorious for their beef with Eminem (who pistol-whipped an ICP homey in 2001) than their ham-fisted rap-rock music. They claim that a “dark carnival� visited them one night, prophesied impending apocalypse and made them its messengers. Between this circus gospel, they find plenty of time to rap about 40-ouncers and venereal disease.
Appalling fact While appearing on The Howard Stern Show in 1999, Shaggy 2 Dope told Sharon Osbourne to “buff my pickle.� She declined.
Worst CD The Wraith: Shangri-La (D3, 2002)

The nominees for the 49th Grammy Awards were announced today. The winners will be announced at the Grammy’s on February 11th at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
