Surreal Grudge Match: Axl vs. Hilfiger

The venue: Rosario Dawson's birthday party at Plum. The contenders: Axl Rose, front man of the newly arisen 'Guns & Roses' and Tommy Hilfiger, living fashion brand.

Axl told his side of the story to KROQ's Kevin & Bean morning show early Friday morning, and according to him the scrap started when Axl politely asked Tommy to move his date's drink so it wouldn't get spilled. That's when Tommy allegedly went off, "smacking" the singer in the arm and cursing at him. Axl reports that he kept a cool head, and after Hilfiger's own security dragged him out, Axl and his band played a great acoustic set.

Or maybe not.
