There's a difference between being non-politically correct and being jealous, petty, rude, and completely out of line. I've known many musicians in my career, including some famous ones and some who could show everyone here all about bad attitude, and I have never heard anyone in any band I know publicly slam people for little justification like she did.

Well, that DVD is about how Metallica almost imploded due to bad relationships within the band. And how it was imperative to bring a psychologist into the studio just so they could attempt to work together. And honestly? St. Anger isn't exactly the greatest Metallica disc. In fact, I'd label it as mediocre compared to past efforts.

This is a

Yes, and he usually likes to redeem them. Unless the person is so clueless that they become even less likeable at a crucial point of the game. And then he mercilessly crucifies them. I just hope that after last night, Dilana got a clue.

I disagree. The singers spend much more time together than they do with the house band. This is an indication as to how they would act in the cocoon of being in a band that has to live with each other 24/7 when they are touring or recording. I think SN respects all of them as professional musicians. But the ability to live with this person day in and day out is just as much of a factor. She has shown that she is not someone who plays well with others when not on stage. And, I'm sure of this especially in Jason's case, this will figure importantly in his final decision.
