James Hetfield just paid homage to his late friend, Cliff Burton.

As the iconic band’s Australian tour continues The Enter Sandman hitmakers are currently in Melbourne to perform at Marvel Stadium on Saturday night.

Ahead of the anticipated performance, in a sweet gesture to his friend, James headed to Melbourne’s iconic AC/DC Lane, where a mural depicting the band’s founding bass player was being completed.

On Metallica’s official Instagram page, the picture uploaded features James standing proudly next to the mural next to one of its creators.

The mural showed Cliff set against a lightning backdrop and the names of the artists – Maid (Liquid Pastels) and Ling written in Metallica’s iconic font.

“Visiting an old friend in Melbourne,” James captioned the image, adding, “Fantastic mural.”

Cliff Burton was a founding member of Metallica and played on the band’s first three studio albums – Kill ‘Em All, Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets.

He was tragically killed in 1986 in a bus crash in Sweden while the band were on tour and was then replaced by Jason Newsted, who served until 2001 before being replaced by Robert Trujillo in 2003.

Metallica fans swamped the comments sections gushing over James Hetfield’s gesture and with many praising the artwork.

One fan commented: “Even after nearly 40 years, the members of Metallica are still commemorating a lost brother in the most beautiful way.”

“I truly respect them because they reminded us how important friendship is,” another wrote.

Reba McEntire has opened up about Happy’s Place.

As the show returns with its season 2, the actress told People Magazine that she loves returning to the set.

She said, “It’s natural. Anytime I get to step on that set, I feel like home. It’s my happy place.”

McEntire shares the experience with her fiancé Rex Linn as both star in the show together. The actress said, “Driving to work with Rex and doing the show, the rehearsals, drive home, talk about it, rehearse together. That’s what’s really special for me. I’ve not had that before.”

“We go into my dressing room and we eat lunch or we’ll have dinner together. Also on the set, we’ll belly up to the bar and have our breakfast,” she added.

Calling Linn funny, McEntire said her fiancé have whatever she have. “So if I have my oatmeal, he’ll have oatmeal.”

Reba McEntire and Rex Linn began dating in 2020 and got engaged in December last year.

The actress and singer also teased that Happy’s Palace season 2 is full of surprises. “Where you think it’s going, it’s not. So stay tuned,” she said.

Robert Pattinson jokes he wants to play teenage roles again.

The 39-year-old actor recently sat down with his Die My Love costar Jennifer Lawrence, 35, for a new video interview with Vanity Fair.

The pair discussed everything from Twilight to generational labels, with Pattinson joking that he’d happily steal a few jobs from younger actors if given the chance.

At one point, Lawrence asked if he’d ever reprise his role as Edward Cullen, but only if directors Josh and Benny Safdie were behind it. “Oh yeah, for sure,” he replied.

Lawrence laughed and told him, “I don’t think you should,” to which, Pattinson doubled down, “It would be great! I like taking jobs from younger actors. I do. I want to play 17 again.”

He then jokingly referenced Zac Efron’s 2009 comedy 17 Again, adding, “There’s a movie. Zac’s movie.”

Lawrence then teased the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire star about his supposed Gen Z tendencies.

“I did think it was insane when you cold FaceTimed me,” she said. “I was like, ‘It’s crazy to cold FaceTime somebody,’ and you were like, ‘No, it’s Gen Z.’”

“As in, I’m Gen Z,” Pattinson replied confidently.

“Do you wish you were Gen Z?” Lawrence asked. “I am,” he insisted, at which she shot back, “You’re not Gen Z, you’re a millennial… but I believe that you believe that you’re Gen Z.”

When pressed about his birth year, Pattinson went on to joke, “it doesn’t matter.”
