Metallica's James Hetfield Shares "Papa H's Top 10 Thingz 2015"

The frontman of the American heavy metal band Metallica - James Hetfield, wrote down his "Top 10 Thingz 2015" and shared them through Metallica's official website.

Among them, include: the Metallica band getting the best guitar sound when recording their new album and the frontman meeting the famous lead vocalist of the rock band Led Zeppelin, Robert Plant.

And to everyone's surprise, Hetfield also includes the time when the Canadian pop superstar, Justin Bieber, made an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show and wore a Metallica shirt.

According to WAAF, "the 21 year old Bieber was slammed by rock, metal, and the fans of the heavy metal band Metallica for wearing the shirt with comments like, 'Singing 'Sorry' on the American television show is probably the least metal thing ever.'"

According to the media outlet BlabberMouth, Metallica band members were asked if they were Beliebers, and Hetfield responded, yes.

Lars Ulrich, the drummer and one of the founding members of Metallica, also stated, "Is it practical for a person to have a feeling of deep admiration for him without being a Belieber? I think Bieber is really talented and obviously to go through what he's going through at that young age must be a mind**k. So the fact that Bieber still goes out there and does it, I respect that and I think Bieber is skillful, so I guess I am kind of a Belieber. If Bieber likes the track 'One', and Liam Gallagher of Oasis likes Bieber, OK, there you go."

Hetfield also included in the list the time he jammed with the lead guitarist from Alice in Chains -- Jerry Cantrell -- along with Hetfield's 16 year old daughter, Cali, at the second annual Acoustic-4-A-Cure concert.
