Scott Weiland bitch slaps Axl Rose

Rock music has been kind of boring lately. Perhaps the return of Axl Rose and his new version of Guns 'N Roses will bring back some of that rock star swagger and bad boy attitude. Or, maybe some aging rock stars will squawk at each other like little girls? After Axl exchanged lawsuits with former Guns bandmate Slash, Scott Weiland is helping to stir the pot.

The Velvet Revolver frontman reportedly called Axl a "'Fat, Botox-Faced, Wig-Wearin' F*ck.' Scott's rage is apparently in response to a rumored "meeting" between Axl and Slash after which Axl supposedly tattled:

"that Slash tore into his current bandmates in VELVET REVOLVER, calling singer Weiland a "fraud," saying that he "hates" drummer Matt Sorum and describing bassist Duff McKagan as "spineless."

Scott's response is posted on Velvet-Revolver's website:

Get in the rin[g.] Go to the gym motherfucker, or if you prefer, get a new wig motherfucker. I think I'll resist the urge to "stoop" to your level. Oh shit, here it comes, you fat, botox faced, wig wearin' fuck! O.K. I feel better now. Don't think for a second we don’t know where those words came from. Your unoriginal, uncreative little mind, the same mind that had to rely on its bandmates to write melodies and lyrics. Who's the fraud now bitch? Damn, I couldn't imagine people writing for me. How many albums have you put out man and how long did it take the current configuration of this so-called "band" to make this album? How long? And without the only guys that validated the name. How dare you! Shame on you! How dare you call our bass player "spineless." We toured our album over a year and a half. How many shows have you played over the last ten years? Oh, that's right - you bailed out on your long awaited comeback tour, leaving your remaining fans feeling shall we say a trifle miffed?! I won't even list what I've accomplished because I don't need to. What we're talking about here is a frightened little man who once thought he was king, but unfortunately this king without his court is nothing but a memory of the asshole he once was.

I imagine him saying this last part in particular wearing a cravat and a powdered wig.

Am I reading this incorrectly, or doesn't that original story say that Axl was quoting *Slash*? If so, isn't it Slash that deserves Weiland's ire?

Yeah, I was wondering about that.

Weiland has been tapped to replace Lord Bendover in the new lineup of Upper Crust.

Maybe he'll challenge Axl to a smack-off, where the rockinest has the highest dope tolerance.

― js (honestengine), Monday, 13 March 2006 16:22 (twenty years ago)

It doesn't count if the dopes you're intolerant to are the same dopes you hired in the first place.

Axl stopped dancing with Mr. Brownstone years ago. Now he dances with Dr. Plasticsurgerystone.

ell now that Axl is a borg... he will contaminate the planet with his virus vibe, Check his eyes out..BORG..... Look at him from years ago.. at least he had a soul.. human

― tid, Thursday, 23 March 2006 06:49 (twenty years ago)

Whoever saidthis is nothing compared to rap beefs, well both of these guys have been in great bands so i find it far more interesting.

Weiland had some seriously harsh words to say, but I guess he usually does.

I heard an STP song on the radio the other day (for the first time in years), and I said to my friend, "Remember when Scott Weiland was alive?" And he said, "He is alive. He's in that band with the guys from Guns'N'Roses."

I nearly drove off the fucking road.

Dying for Weiland would have been a shitty way to go.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 24 March 2006 02:30 (twenty years ago)

Great band name, though!

― Edward Bax (EdBax), Friday, 24 March 2006 15:37 (twenty years ago)

Sorry, it just makes me think of the equivalent of the Barenaked Ladies circa 2025.
