Lady Gaga in talks to become new singer of Queen

According to various reports, Lady Gaga is “in talks” to tour with Queen as their singer. Since the departure Paul Rodgers in 2009, the legendary band has been contemplating about touring together. However, vocal support is still missing. Queen guitarist Brian May, who has already collaborated with the Gaga on her recent single “You & I,” said the band have approached the singer to assist them live them in the future.

We talk about going out on the road all the time but there’s a bit of a singer problem, to put it mildly. We get a lot of offers to work with other people. I worked with Lady Gaga and she’s very creative and is someone we’ve talked about singing, fronting the band with. She’s not just a singer, she writes her own material.

May further implied that the band is looking to do a series of duets with artists, that could be presented in the TV format.

We have talked about doing duets with other people and in a strange way I almost pressed the yes button. We were debating the idea of a TV show where we have all these guest stars. We didn’t press it today but we are still looking at it. Lady Gaga has said she would like to do something with us.
