Axl Rose is not dead

An article has surfaced made to look like an MSNBC article claiming Axl rose, the lead singer of Guns N’ Roses, was found dead in his Hollywood home.


The story uses a fabricated quote from a police officer who does not exist.

Rose has since joked about the hoax, tweeting earlier tonight: "If I'm dead, do I still have to pay taxes?" In addition, the official GUNS N' ROSES Facebook page shared a photo of Axl from the ParadiseCity.com page containing the caption: "Ha! They say I'm dead — again… Wait, what? WTF? It's a hoax. Guys. Get a life at ParadiseCity.com."
