Donatella Versace mentions GN'R on Jimmy Kimmel Live (incl. video link)

[ARC]

Bon Jovi in a cologne commericial yesterday....THAT is not rock n' roll.?

Yeah, I bet Bon Jovi felt really bad about that when he was cashing the million dollar cheque he got paid for doing it...

Don't try and define what is "rock n' roll".

GNR have capitalised on their own fair share of commercial opportunities in the past.

And, why the hell not?! Make shit loads of money for doing nothing! You'd be stupid not to.

I was just going to post that.
I wonder if Stephanie will be in attendance?

She isn't a very fashionable figure nowadays, is she ?

She hasnt really done much that I know of.

I know Axl has been wearing Versace since the early 90s and that he has been going to fashion shows and stuff since then, so thats why I'm assuming he met Donatella through Steph.

I would assume that Axl knows Donattela through her brother whom Axl met (I assume) through Stephanie in the early 90's.  When her brother was killed, Donatella sort of took over the Versace empire.



Does anyone else think it's weird that she just sort of matter-of-factly mentioned GNR at this event and we can't seem to find anything else about it in any article about the event?  Weird.

June 26th, 1992 - Axl visits the showrooms of top Italian designers, Gianni Versace and Armani.

In the evening he dines with Versace's sister, Donatella, and her top model husband Paul Becak. Also at the table are supermodel Naomi Campbell and Axl's girlfriend Stephanie Seymour.

I think it's really cool that Guns has the ability to scale-down and play at these kinds of events. Not many hard rock bands can do that. It also shows that Axl/Guns have allot of support among the elite regardless of the shit that gets printed about them.

sure thing

   Was Channel surfing last night when I saw Demi Moore on the red carpet at the versace event on E. I had seen a few pics here and knew she was there so I watched hoping to see something about the gig. Well no luck, not only no footage of the guys but they didn't even mention that Guns preformed or that they were even present (although they did make a note Francis-bean Cobain was there...whatever).

What the fuck? do you think Axl does the ol' in through the out door?, no pictures, no interviews. If so, what's the point of being "out there" if you are not really "out there" these are great occasions to get the name out. Let people know.

or is it just that E and whoevr else just don't give a flying fuck...I find that hard to believe with all the utter shit they show all day long.

I think it's because the media likes dirt and Guns playing an event like that is a 'good guy' thing. they only want to report when Axl gets arrested or report lies about him demanding food before he goes on stage.
