AXL TO GRIND

What’s up with Axl Rose? Last week, during a concert in Paris, the Guns N’ Roses star got downright vicious about Warren Beatty, referring to him as “an old man who likes to live vicariously through young people and suck up all their life because he has none of his own….

A man who uses you, uses the media and uses everybody to fulfill his f———parasitic needs.”

Although there has been printed speculation that Rose’s view of Beatty comes filtered through the eyes of his current steady, model Stephanie Seymour, an ex-Beatty flame, a spokesperson for Geffen Records, Rose’s record label, dismisses Rose’s rant as just another example of Axl’s excitability. “If we worried every time Axl did a tirade, that’s all we would do,” says the rep.
