True or not, I'm surprised they've been phrasing it like this. It's not like "We wish she could become a member of the band," it's "we want her to become a member of the band." As awesome as that is that they support her and she's offered to be part of a legendary group, this suggestion that she could genuinely decide to join is a bit...insulting, to say the least. I mean, Gaga is big enough as a soloist that she can keep being solo. She has her own career, her own musical aims, her own fans, to please. She didn't build up her career just to become a singer in Metallica, she did it for herself, to send a message as a soloist. I can understand Adam Lambert joining Queen because he no longer has any clout as a soloist (and he never did, not really), with his last album selling just 42k in the US. Joining a band and basically abandoning his solo career for the moment therefore, isn't that big of a deal and could actually benefit him more than continuing to be solo. But Gaga? She's still slaying very well considering the current era music is in. She has a big fanbase that can't be let down. To suggest that someone like that should join a band permanently, therefore ending her artistic vision as a soloist, is insulting. And considering she's a woman as well, the suggestion is also that a female needs to be surrounded by men in order to be successful and she's comfortable taking a backseat in actual music creation and is happy just to sing. Yeah, suck it.

Queen of assumptions and being triggered by compliments. :hor:

She also didn't build up a huge career to do a jazz album with Tony :neyde: but one jazz album helped her career a lot, and not just her career, it helped her to get from that ARTPOP depression... sooo yeah she left her solo career for a while and it turned out fine

honestly I think it could be interesting to have one metal era with a tour, something like C2C :sis:

like I would much rather see her collab with Metallica than C3C, even tho C2C was a success :neyde:

Of course someone had to twist this into some sort of insult and attack on Gaga's artistic integrity.  :madge:

I don't think it's serious. Lars Ulrich knows she won't abandon her own music. But I wouldn't be surprised if they record something together. And I think there's a good chance she will be invited as a guest some time, like with Queen and Rolling Stones.

I would love like a mini tour like 3 dates at one venue with her performing their stuff, ugh it would be killer. Like a Roseland thing.
But realistically that will never happen not to mention that she will never actually join the band lmao 
Uggh that Grammys performance still slays me though, what couldve been without the technical bullshit.
