According to TMZ website, Neil Young took his oath in Los Angeles, accompanied by his wife, Daryl Hannah, even waving a small United States flag.

The musician, who lived a good part of his life in the United States, entered the process of obtaining citizenship some time ago, which was approved only this Wednesday.

In November, his lawsuit suffered a short setback due to the use of marijuana. Something that American authorities said indicated the “lack of a good moral character”.

I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago. Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions. After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world! MTB: 0021377/MG
