Muse frontman Matt Bellamy has hinted that he might be considering American citizenship.
The star currently lives part-time in Southern California with his wife, Kate Hudson, and their children - and he could be looking to make a more permanent move.
When asked about performing a version of 'The Star-Spangled Banner' at a concert, Bellamy tols US radio station KROQ, "Just instrumental... I feel like you have to be an American to sing it.
"But you never know. I might be an American soon. So, you never know... I might be able to sing it."
Bellamy also says that his children act as an alarm clock while he's on tour in LA, as they wake him up early every morning.
He continues, "In LA, I just get woken up by the kids first thing in the morning," and adds that he tells them to wait "until lunch at least" because he "didn't finish partying until like 3am last night."
In a recent interview with Classic Rock magazine, Matt also spoke about hoping that Muse songs have an influence on people who don't 'fall in' with everything.

He said, "I do feel we are keeping up that tradition, that it's the job of bands, musicians, artists in general to at least shed light on things people might not be aware of.
"I wouldn't pretend we're the starting point, but in combination with other artists out there, I think we collectively influence other people to come up with new ways of thinking. And they're the ones who will form policies in the future."
