Metallica: The Next Generation

Metallica frontman James Hetfield's kiddos show that heavy metal runs in the family bloodlines.

Last Weekend, James and his wife Francesca rolled up to the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame's 2009 induction ceremony with their three kids Cali, 10, Castor, 8, and Marcella, 7 -- all of whom have obviously been groomed in the ways of rock by their father.

The reason the whole family piled into the leer jet and flew out to Cleveland was to watch daddy's band Metallica get inducted into the Hall of rock glory. Congratulations to the band are in order, they've been shredding for 28 years now. Wow.

"I never thought much about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame until we were approached to induct Black Sabbath in 2006, and then they asked us to play, which was like, 'OK ... we will!' " Hetfield laughed, talking to MTV News shortly before taking the stage for a "secret" SXSW Metallica set. "So we were there, and then they were saying, 'You know, you guys are up for this in a few years.' And I went, 'Wow, really?' And I started doing the math ... 'OK, 25 years after our first record ... yeah, it's now.' And my first thought was 'Man, it's gone by very quickly.' "

Metallica's New Album Fueled By Children

Karl Erikson — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 19:33:00 GMT

Lars Ulrich, James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, and Rob Trujillo of Metallica have a new album coming out on September 12 and the music is definitely going to be different. These days, the heavy metal rockers are all fathers and so Metallica's lyrics won't be about the fast rocking times any more. Instead, family is the new fuel for their music.

Lars' 10-yr-old son, Myles, loves Guitar Hero. "He's digging on Sabbath and Deep Purple and all the music I loved as a kid," says Lars, who is also a father to 7-yr-old Layne with ex-wife Skylar Satenstein, and 15-mos-old Bryce Thadeius with his girlfriend, Connie Nielsen.

James Hetfield has daughters Cali Tee, 10, and Marcella Francesca, 6...plus an 8-yr-old son, Castor, with his wife, Francesca. Kirk Hammett has two sons, Angel Ray (22 mos) and Vincenzo Kainalu (9 weeks) with his wife Lani. And Rob Trujillo has a 2-yr-old son, Tai Orion, and baby daughter, Lula, with his wife Chloe.

Wonder if they're covering "Row, Row, Row Your Boat?" The name of their new album is called "Death Magnetic."

Angelina Says: Keep Your Pot, I Like(d) the Hard Stuff Better

BadKitty — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 17:04:00 GMT

I'll say this for Skinny Minnie Angelina: She's a candid one. Angie openly admits to drug experimentation -- she's done literally everything, including coke, heroin and ecstasy. She even did LSD before a trip to Disney, which sounds like a dirty trick you'd play on a frenemy.

Of course, it wouldn't be Angelina if she didn't come up with something contrary to conventional wisdom. Out of all the drugs she's done -- and again, she's done everything -- what does she disavow? Pot.

Yes, she disses sweetleaf! Because it makes her giggly, and apparently that is the one thing that Angie doesn't do. How, I ask you, did someone kinky and wild enough to wear blood get to be such a stuck up prude?

Seriously, this is why I'm Team Aniston. You know Jen would be totally cool at a concert if someone passes her a spliff. Shoot, you know Jen is cool enough to bring her own. Wait, you did know that, right?
