Rose and Hilfiger in Birthday Bust-Up


 Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose and fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger got into a furious row at actress Rosario Dawson's birthday party on Thursday night. The pair were at The Plumm nightclub in New York City, where Rose played a surprise acoustic show, when they got into a heated argument which ended with Hilfiger allegedly hitting Rose. The designer was promptly escorted out of the club by security guards, according to PageSix.com. Rose told his side of the story yesterday morning during an interview with Kroq radio station in Los Angeles, explaining that the fight started when he politely asked the designer to move his date's drink so it wouldn't get spilled. Hilfiger allegedly went ballistic, "smacking" the singer in the arm and cursing at him. According to Plumm owner Noel Ashman, Hilfiger took two swings at Rose. He says, "Axl was a gentleman and had the good sense not to retaliate, as he would have done some serious damage to Hilfiger." Dawson's mother Isabelle told Tmz.com the designer politely told Rose to watch out for his date's drink, which caused Hilfiger to begin screaming and swearing at him. She goes on to say that Hilfiger stood up and started punching Rose, getting in a few good shots before his own security guards escorted him out. The singing star filled out a police report and later dedicated the song "You're Crazy" to "My good friend Tommy Hilfiger." Birthday girl Dawson was unaffected by the scuffle and thrilled with the band's surprise performance saying, "They've never played all acoustic, this is history in the making, how much does this f**king man rock?!"

Imagine the bad press if Axl beat that guys ass. It would not have been a fair fight and he would have been blasted for it.

Of course, the high road is not beating anybody up regardless. It is obvious that Tommy is a complete tool and this only ended up being more PR for GNR.

what sucks though is inaccurate reporting that makes Axl look like a weak pussy.

Like he got whipped by Hilfiger.

I am boycotting Foxnews and will not be watching it anymore as their reporting on this subject was the most amateurish piece of bullshit ever.

It's unfair, but that's to be expected from tabloid journalism.? It's the price of fame.? Look at Tom Cruise - while some of the bad press is his own doing, most of it is bullshit designed to knock the world's biggest movie star down a peg.? He manages to overcome it, his movies do well and he still pulls down $20M+ a movie.? So Axl will always have to deal with bad press and, in any case, over his 20 years in the business, I would say he's managing quite well.

Bottom line, I think this incident is just something for us all to enjoy.? Those pictures in the Post were gifts from the comedy gods.

The difference between Axl and Tom Cruise is that Axl didn't get whipped by Tommy, but Tom Cruise is a certified lunatic. So it's a different kind of bad press.......

Tom Cruise believes he can heal people, and that because of his level in the Church if Scientology he doesn't get sick any more.. Much different than people lying about Axl being beat up by a 5'6" 55 yearold "fashion" designer.

Maybe so, but my point is that if Tom Cruise can oversome the press labeling him as a closet homosexual and a "certified lunatic" (which I agree is probably true), Axl can deal with stories that Hilfiger kicked his ass.  It's a problem not when people believe designers slap Axl around, but when people don't care that they do.

If Axl is back, this type of thing is going to happen  more and more often. I hope he handles it well.

[Elrothiel]

Aaargh! I hate that its all getting blown out of proportion!

My friend sent me a text today saying "Hey did you hear that Axl got beaten up by Tommy Hilfiger"

THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN!! Unfortunately I didn't have any credit so I couldn't reply straightaway, so the next time he goes on MSN I'm gunna explain what really happened as far as I know.... I'll probably end up pissing him off but hey what am I supposed to do? Let him believe that Axl got beaten up by Hilfaggot? Hell no!

[GeorgeSteele]

Aaargh! I hate that its all getting blown out of proportion!

What's the correct proportion?  Fights between rock stars and designers don't happen too often.

Tell me this:  20 years ago what would Axl have done if he was told to move his ass to make room for some celebrity big shot?  Maybe not snap his fingers and get into a karate stance, but he would have done something.  Hilfiger was just acting in the spirit that reminded us of why we're all Axl fans to begin with.

[horsey]

was tommy's girlfriend hot ?
i have a feeling axl if i know better.was checking more then her drink out lol.

[Verse Chorus Verse]

Yeah, this was on CNN Headlines this morning as well. Felt weird to hear his name on TV twice. (Sopranos party and today.)

[The Estranged MrFlashbax]

the story about Axl vs Hillfiger is on E! news right now

[GnR-NOW]

I think E!'s ratings just gone up.

[The Estranged MrFlashbax]

I think E!'s ratings just gone up.

as thousands of gnr fans suddently turn it on just to see a few snapshots of axl rose and hear his name mentioned on tv 

[Jessica]

maybe hillfiger was coked up and not exactly in his normal state ....

His reaction is not one of a normal person, which may be why axl didn't respond, he probably knew the guy was a poor idiot who had more than anger in his veins ?

[The Estranged MrFlashbax]

yeah that was fucking retarded.. the stupid girl even said tommy won the fight when he clearly didnt

[Nytunz]

Great Pics, notice in the first one Merck attempting to hold Axl back. Axl certainly does appear to be going at him full on in the other pic, is the guy in the blue/black shirt Tommy? Kid Rock looks like hes trying to get in there aswell!
