With breakup rumors running rampant, the Foo Fighters shared what they billed as a very special announcement Wednesday night. Instead of confirming the whispers that they were splitting up and Dave Grohl was going solo, the band released a mocking seven-minute video featuring Grohl as a diva trying to make it on his own, and the rest of the guys attempting to figure out who could replace him. They settled on former boy bander Nick Lachey, and his version of "Everlong" may make you question why 98 Degrees and the Foo Fighters never collaborated in the '90s. In case there are still any doubts about the band's status, watch the expletive-filled video all the way to the end for a very clear message. Catherine Garcia
