GOSSIP

Stephan Jenkins, lead singer of Third Eye Blind, found himself with a bad bout of road rage in Los Angeles Thursday (May 14), but it wasn't the L.A. drivers getting him down. It was KLYY (Y107) jock Mike Savage. While Jenkins was driving around in town -- listening to the alternative station Y107 -- he heard Savage on-air going on about how he wanted to make an ass out of Jenkins because of his former band, the hip-hop group Puck & Natty, which had a song on Beverly Hills, 90210: The Soundtrack, released in 1992 on Giant Records. Jenkins said something to the effect of this to Savage: "Yeah, I used to rap, so what? I was living on the floor of my friend's apartment at the time, and I was offered lots of money to put one of my songs on the Beverly Hills, 90210 soundtrack, so I did it, OK?" Jenkins went on to rant that the rumors that he wrote the theme song to the show are false (no duh), but if they had asked him to write it at the time, he would've done it in a second. So there you have it...
