About LinkBacksIf she axes pop career in favor of prog./arena rock work with Queen that could be respectable. Though its a "this will be amazing or terrible" situation.When Queen frontman Freddie Mercury passed away in 1991, the rock world mourned the loss of one of its most charismatic performers. While many had speculated that Mercury would be irreplaceable, Queen had former Free and Bad Company singer Paul Rogers join their ranks for a reunion tour in 2004. That engagement would end in 2009. Now, in 2011, it seems that Brian May is looking for a new vocalist for Queen, in the unlikeliest of places.
According to Contact Music, Lady Gaga is in talks with May to take over the role of Queen’s lead singer. Brian May offered the following statement to the Daily Express regarding the situation: "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 trk 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."
Queen’s influence on Gaga is apparent. The singer’s flamboyance evidently owes a lot to the theatrics of Mercury, and her stage name is even a play on Queen’s 1984 hit single "Radio Gaga". May is reportedly considering the reality TV outlet as another avenue for finding a new vocalist: "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."

The source is a very unreliable one. Very doubtful. But I'd love for her to duet with them, Brian May produced her song 'You and I' so it could happen...
