It is well known that Metallica and Lady Gaga performed together at the 59th Grammy Awards - and for this reason Lady Gaga is now offered the opportunity to become Metallica's new “co-lead singer”. Regardless of the disastrous performance in which front man Hetfield had a mute microphone during the song "Moth Into Flame", his band mates Ulrich, Hammett and Trujillo were completely blown away by Gaga.
As WJLA reports from Washington, Lars Ulrich has now actually offered Lady Gaga a place in the band and invites Gaga to join the band on stage whenever her schedule allows. In an interview with Access Hollywood, drummer Ulrich stated:
We have got a brand new lead singer. Well, a brand new co-lead singer, is a greater way of saying it. We were speaking earlier about maybe making her a permanent member of the band, and being a five-piece from now on, so we'll see.
Ulrich has not yet said a word about whether Lady Gaga will actually take on a part in the following studio album or whether she will only take part in live performances. What, according to Lars, is clear: "This is just the beginning!"
