After their Super Bowl performance, rumors began to swirl that due to the event being such a success and the fact that they got along very well, that Lady Gaga would possibly join the Metal Rock Band METALLICA as some sort of co-singer on future projects. Well you can forget that idea, even though Lars Ulrich (Metallica’s drummer) briefly hinted at it. Following those comments, a story published on the website of WJLA, the ABC affiliate in Washington D.C., claimed that Lars Ulrich had actually invited Lady Gaga to join them on stage “whenever her schedule allows”. The story included no foundation for that claim and cited no source for it, but instead simply quoted the Access Hollywood comments by Lars and left out that he was joking.
Last week additional reports surfaced online that appeared to be based on the WJLA report, which claimed that the pop star was actually offered a job with the thrash legends. Watch the interview clip and judge for yourself : (See Video Below)
