Getting married
If there’s another reason for all you haters our there to grow your loathing for Nickleback’s Chad Kroeger, it’s this: The singer is now engaged to be married to Avril Lavigne. She’s no longer the young punky kid performing pop tunes for tweeners. She’s 27 now and Kroeger is 37, so there’s a bit of an age difference, but they’re both Canadian so that should make up for it, right? Avril was previously married to the front man of Sum 41 but got a divorce back in 2009. Kroeger has never been married. Reports indicate that Kroeger and Lavigne have been secretly dating for the past six months after they collaborated on a tune for a forthcoming Lavigne album. Shall we start taking bets on how long this union will last?
Pussy Riot hackers
Supporters of the Russian Punk band Pussy Riot have been attacking the website of the court that convicted and sentenced the group to two years behind bars. Hackers posted on the court’s website the band’s latest song ridiculing Russian Prez Vladimir Putin and calls for the band members’ release.
Single now available
Flyleaf is back on the scene with a new single. The tune called “New Horizons” is the title track for their forthcoming album and you can grab up the song on iTunes. There’s still no word on when the album will be dropping in stores but it’s expected sometime this fall.
