4. Supergrass has sadly announced that they will be breaking up. Jokingly the band cited a "17 year itch" for the reason for breaking up.

The band will make the split official after their upcoming tour is finished. (via NME)
5. Rumors that Rob Pattinson will be playing the role of Kurt Cobain in the biopic about the 90s grunge rocker. Courtney Love's manager has since denied rumors that the part would be going to the "Twilight" actor. Love told the Canadian Press, "Isn't that so stupid? Who would cast him?" When given her direct opinion who would be best to play Kurt, Love mentioned both Ryan Gosling and James McAvoy. (Spin)
