Report Copyright Violation | Axl Rose sends notice to Google demanding takedown of fat memes ~ HaHaHa Axl Rose seemingly worked his ass off in preparation of this summer’s tours fronting Guns N’ Roses and AC/DC. Not only is his voice in pretty great shape, but Axl is noticeably slimmer. Unfortunately, as a former fat kid like myself can attest, no matter how much weight you lose, you can never rid yourself of those heinous photos from when you were still fat ass. There’s a thing called the Internet, and as Axl has learned first hand, removing not-so-flattering photographs isn’t the easiest of tasks. As TorrentFreak points out, Axl has sent a cease and desist to Google demanding the removal of photos and memes poking fun at his weight. The photos in question were taken by Boris Minkevich for Winnipeg Free Press in 2010. Surely, you’ve seen them before — at least in meme form. Featuring greatest hits: Oh Oh Oh Sweet pie O' Mine Welcome to McDonalds we got fries and shakes [ link to consequenceofsound.net] |

They're just memes... it's the internet and he will have to learn to live with it. Google doesn't host them, good luck chasing all the image sites etc down and getting compliance. I didn't even know about the memes but they are funny haha. |

It happens to people as they age. I don't know why he doesn't just ignore it...when you are in the public eye, this kind of shit happens - Deal with it. I don’t suffer fools or shills lightly...
Don’t gaslight me, bro. |
