Metallica Fans Are Angry That The Band Wasn’t Mentioned in the Intro to Their Grammys Performance
It’s not Metallica’s night, and fans of the band are not happy. Not only did lead singer James Hetfield‘s microphone not work during the first moments of the band’s collaboration with Lady Gaga, but Laverne Cox also didn’t mention them when she introduced the performance. She only mentioned Gaga specifically. Fans of the band are angry, and some are suggesting that someone at the Grammys actually has it out for them:

You put Metallica and Lady Gaga on stage to perform and only introduce Gaga. No matter your views on metal, that’s complete trash. #GRAMMYs

METALLIGAGA: Yeah, I’m super pissed how Metallica was dissed by the #Grammys but am happy they rose above it. Lady Gaga kicked ass, too.

Not introducing @Metallica and then not having the microphone on should be punishable by life in prison. #GRAMMYs

Come on #GRAMMYs! How could you do that to James Hetfield? First, @Lavernecox only introduces @ladygaga forgetting @Metallica, then broken ?
