TANKIAN BECOMES A NEW ZEALAND CITIZEN
SYSTEM OF A DOWN rocker SERJ TANKIAN has become a New Zealand citizen, after falling in love with the country.
The Lebanon-born heavy-metaller has been based in the U.S., but fell in love with New Zealand after travelling there to relax after recording his new solo album - and he has stayed put.
He explains, "After recording the album I withdrew and took off there for three months, which I had to do to gain citizenship.
"I’m such a crazy workaholic that it was hard stepping away from my work in LA, but it was great because it allowed me to reflect. It made me think, ‘Wow man, I have this amazing life.’"
