System of a Down is planning an announcement.

In a new interview, frontman Serj Tankian was asked if there are any plans for new music.

He said, “As of now, we haven’t talked about anything. We will be making an announcement about something next year that I can’t really tell you about. So there is that.
But further than that, I can’t really say.”

The band has only recorded two songs in the last 17 years.

What do you think the announcement is?

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are finally moving in together after tying the knot earlier this year.

They have purchased a beach house from Conan O’Brien in Santa Barbara for $14.5 million.

The home has just two bedrooms, and 3 and a half bathrooms, so it seems like it is just for romantic getaways for the couple not a new home for the large, blended family.

Kourtney has three children with her ex, Scott Disick, and Travis shares three with his two exes, Atianna De La Hoya and Shanna Moakler.

If you could design your dream house, what would it include?

Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan is a big UFC fan.

In a new interview, the singer said he even watches UFC fights onstage while he’s performing.

Keenan was asked about the rumor and responded, “Because I wanna know! Of course, it’s fighter-specific, there are people that I definitely pay attention to more than other fighters just because I want to see what happens… I back these people’s careers; I just want to know what’s gonna go on. I don’t watch every UFC in that context, but if I know Thug Rose is fighting — iPad on the stage. I gotta see. Nate Diaz? I’m gonna have the iPad up there for sure.”

Keenan went on to assure fans he’s still going to give them a great show even if he’s multi-tasking.

Would you care if you went to a concert and the singer was watching sports while performing or can you relate?
