Look, I’m all about being an American, but if there’s one other place on this planet I’d want to live, it’s Australia. Not only is the country beautiful, but it’s given us KugelHopf, a Mary Kate and Ashley movie, Kangaroos and, of course, some very delicious eye candy.
And as today, January 26th, is Australia Day, it’s our duty to honor the land of Oz. But since we can’t hop on a plane, fly 24 hours and present the country with balloons and a cake, we’ll do the next best thing: ogle our favorite Aussies. And embarrass ourselves misusing Aussie slang.
G’day mates! Read More »

Halloween 2010 is finally here and we’re looking forward to celebrating the only national college holiday that ends with me getting stabbed in the eye by an oversized fairy wing. While we’re excited to see all the awesome creative costumes, we’re also dreading seeing all the cliche and uninspired pop culture costumes. Like c’mon, how many Michael Jacksons did we really need last year? And we’re sure this year will be no different. That’s why we put together this list of costumes that we’re sure will be at every single college Halloween party.
In fact, we’re so sure that you’ll see all these costumes that we’re throwing a Halloween photo contest. Be the first person to upload a photo of a different person wearing each of these costumes to our Facebook Fan Page and WIN A COLLEGE CANDY BEER PONG TABLE (like the one in this photo). You don’t have to upload them all in a row, but you do have to be the first one to get all ten photos uploaded. (On the slight chance that no one manages to photograph all 10, the person who uploads the most photos, the fastest will win. And in case more than one of you snaps all 10, we’ll put all your names in a witch hat and randomly draw a winner.) You have until November 2nd to get those photos in and we’ll announce the winner on Facebook at 12pm EST on November 3rd.
Now what are you waiting for? Go grab your camera/cell phone and get snapping!

I was so excited for The Hangover 2 to come out next year. So excited. Like already have my tickets, waiting in line starting now excited. And then news broke that a certain celebrity was going to be making a cameo in the sequel, much like Mike Tyson did in the original. Except this celebrity isn’t a boxing legend with a drug problem. It’s a middle-aged white guy with rage issues. Mel Gibson.
Is it bad that since reading of this new addition to the cast, my interest in the movie has dropped about 200%? Mel makes my skin crawl. Seriously, I know the dude wants to push “restart” on his career, but I can think of a bajillion other celebrities who deserve a second (or third, or fourth) chance to change their image more than a wife-beating, anti-Semitic a-hole.
Amy Winehouse
Not only is she legitimately super-talented, she writes songs with names like “F*ck Me Pumps.” Talk about someone who deserves a chance to further pursue her art! Those are bona-fide dance hits, without which our Thirsty Thursdays would be significantly duller. There are only so many times you can shake your butt to “Apple Bottom Jeans,” but Amy’s “Rehab” is forever.
R.Kelly
When he’s not being gross, Mr. Kelly is actually pretty funny…whether he means to be or not. “Trapped in the Closet” was an epic musical adventure that had me biting my fingernails with anxiety. So maybe he touched minors inappropriately. Give him one of those hot pink molester license plates, keep him away from parks and schools, but let the guy act! Read More »

Everybody has a breakdown once in a while. Whether it’s being over-stressed from school or just because they ran out of your favorite ice cream at the grocery store (Starbucks Java Chip Frappucino WAHHHHHH!), it’s normal to melt down every now and then.
However, when you’re in the limelight of Hollywood and a pampered celeb, those mini-meltdowns are way more public, way more ridiculous, and, lately, way more frequent. In light of all the celebutard dramalicious freak outs that are constantly cluttering our Twitter feeds, gossip columns and office chatter, I’ve decided to count down the ten most memorable meltdowns. Enjoy. Read More »

You know what’s cool? Pit stains. Or not. But thanks to the summer sun, I’ve got ‘em and I have a feeling they’ll be sticking around until September. That oughta be good for my social life.
What else is going on? You mean besides sweat-induced breakouts, funky tan burn lines, and 24/7 cravings for popsicles? Yeah, not much. Thank god all those ass-hats in Hollywood are keeping it real, otherwise I’d have nothing to do with myself while I spend my days huddled up on the air conditioning vent in my bedroom. Speaking of bedrooms, have you entered the CollegeCandy contest to win a total bedroom makeover?!
Perhaps reflecting on the week that was will cool things down a bit.
- Mel Gibson has officially gone off the deep end and taken on the title of Douchebag of the Century.
- Could you be one of these people? Here are six friends you’ll never see over summer break
- Kate and Jon didn’t work out, neither did Jake and Vienna. But what about Kate…and Jake? Maybe these new matchups will last in Hollywood.
- Wanna have sex? Forget about it. Let’s watch porn instead. Read about the new phenomenon about porn replacing sex.
- Short hair in, long hair out. Read about one CC writer’s obsession with short hair. (And rightfully so, look at Audrey Hepburn!)
- While you’re lounging poolside soaking up the sun, one post-grad is slaving away to prepare for the LSATs. Who do you think is having more fun? Hint: you.
- Emma Watson: smart, sucessful and the face of Burberry. Read why everyone here at CollegeCandy loves her style.
- Tired of working out every time you go out to eat? Eat these healthy foods and rock that hot summer bod.
- Guys are complicated. Wait, no they’re not.
