Metallica Just Released Amazing Video of Their Grammy Dress Rehearsal With Lady Gaga

It was strange enough when we learned that Lady Gaga and Metallica were teaming up to perform together at the Grammys. Then when the music awards show aired live, a series of tech snafus robbed viewers of what looked like a surprisingly killer performance. The rockers and pop star recently decided to give fans a taste of what they missed and they released video of their dress rehearsal performing “Moth Into Flame.”

Turns out the Grammys audience missed out on a literally fiery and thrilling performance that had a little bit of something for everyone. Metallica gave a recording studio-worthy performance and Lady Gaga proved she’s got the vocal chops to handle just about any kind of music and still sound authentic.

It’s a good thing the Grammys apologized to Metallica for all the tech screw-ups because as they age the guys only grow sharper and more professional in performance, so hopefully we’ll get to see them shake up another boring awards ceremony in the future.

And it might sound kind of crazy, but it’d be fun to hear Lady Gaga do more metal, because she’s on (non-literal) fire here.

On the evening of August 7, 2025, during her sold-out residency show at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Adele stunned fans by inviting her 13-year-old son, Angelo Adkins, to join her on stage for the very first time. Dressed in a navy blazer, Angelo shyly walked out to thunderous applause as Adele held his hand and introduced him with tears in her eyes. Together, they performed a heart-melting duet of “When We Were Young,” a song Adele wrote years ago with him in mind. The crowd fell into a hush, watching mother and son share a raw, intimate moment that felt larger than any chart hit. As the final note echoed, Adele whispered, “You were the reason I wrote it — and tonight, you gave it back to me.”
