Tye Trujillo is officially following in his father’s footsteps…

The part-Mexican American teenager, the son of Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo, has formed an alt-rock band called Suspect208.

The younger Trujillo formed the band with London Hudson, Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash, Noah Weiland, Stone Temple Pilots’ late frontman Scott Weiland, and their friend Niko Tsangaris.

And, Tye and his band mates have released their debut single because “Long Awaited” is already out.

Hudson announced their debut on Instagram last week, promising, “We got more sh– coming soon!” He was previously in a different band with Tsangaris called Classless Act, which opened for Slash at the Hollywood Palladium in 2019.

Tye Trujillo previously toured with Korn in 2017 and performed with his father’s old troupe Suicidal Tendencies last year.

Allison Iraheta is a married woman…

“Best thing I’ve ever done,” says the new groom.

News that Iraheta and Hager quietly eloped back in January broke this Tuesday, via The Hollywood Reporter.

The couple’s Halo Circus played their first online performance ever in February, for Yahoo! Music, but made no mention of tying the knot at that time.

Iraheta was 16 years old when she competed on Idol, so it may be hard to picture the red-haired rocker as a married woman. But allgrown up now.

Her new husband, a multi-instrumentalist and producer who’s worked with Mandy Moore, the Backstreet Boys, Duran Duran, Scott Weiland, and others, is slightly older than her — THR reports that he graduated from the Berklee College of Music in 1991 — but the two seem extremely well-matched, both personally and professionally.
