Normally these kind of headlines feature the latest hip hop or rap sensation duking it out or in some cases shooting it out at some trendy US nightclub.
But, tonight it's an oldie but a baddie that is making the noise and throwing the fists in the city that never sleeps.
Axl Rose, he of the days of Guns N Roses fame got into a bit of an altercation with fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger on Thursday night, as the two got into a tangle at a new nightclub called Plumm.
Seems that Axl was doing a little housekeeping at the Hilfiger table, when he moved the designer's girlfriends drink, a gesture that apparently was not appreciated by Mr. Hilfiger who according to Rose began slapping the rocker over and over again.
The two eventually were separated and Hilfigers security team escorted him from the club, apparently before Rose took to the stage for a special appearance for actress Rosario Dawson.
It's been a while since Axl has been fodder for the tabloids, his exploits with the Gunners were the thing of rock and roll excess, but that was long ago and far away, and so much better than it is today (props to Meatloaf for the stolen lyrical remembrance).
However, it never hurts to get a little publicity in the rock and roll world, even if the story is three days old and not quite the same league as the showdowns of Tupac and Biggie Smalls.
