Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney, star of The Vampire Diaries, have ended their relationship, reports Us Weekly.

According to a source, the pair are now "on a break" due to their hectic shedules, with Gaga set to embark on a 110-show tour while also recording her new album. "There's just no room for anything else," the source said of Gaga's workload. "Her work is all-consuming."

The insider also told Us that it wasn't likely Gaga and Kinney's relationship would last: "Taylor was all about himself, a typical actor, and didn't completely get Gaga."

The source added another possible reason for the split: "[Gaga] loved that she got this guy who everyone thought was hot! But it was never going to last."

“The Pretender”

Foo Fighters | 2007

This song wasn't part of the planned track listing for 2007's Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace, and was put together in a day. "It happened after we recorded a lot of stuff," said Dave Grohl. Yet it ended up as the album opener and the lead single. Grohl called it "a stomping Foo Fighters uptempo song with a little bit of Chuck Berry in it." The singer hinted at the lyrics' political overtones: "Everyone's been f---ed over before and I think a lot of people feel f---ed over right now and they're not getting what they were promised."
