Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose has issued a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown request with Google in an attempt to scrub the internet of the picture that inspired the "fat Axl" meme, according to reports. Torrentfreak reports that a recent edition of Lumen Database's DMCA archive found a series of requests sent on May 31 by Web Sheriff on behalf of Rose to the search giant listing allegedly infringing URLs featuring the unflattering pic.

In a statement to sent to Billboard, Free Press Director of Photography Mike Aporius said Rose's reps have no right to the image, which has been re-posted without the paper's permission. "We’ve had a number of requests for comment on the circulating memes of Axl Rose based on a photo staff photographer Boris Minkevich took in Winnipeg in January of 2010," it read. "The Winnipeg Free Press holds editorial copyright on the image and has not approved any third-party usage. We were only recently made aware of these memes, and while we ethically don’t approve, viral media is impossible for us to regulate. Welcome to the jungle."

Sounds like he wants to turn the internet into a Chinese Democracy

Its so easy to rush to judgment here, but my advice to Axl would be to have just a little patience and this will pass...nothing lasts forever. However, if Google doesn't comply then, Axl...please don't cry.

That's some Gavin Belson shite right there.

I got tickets for the show in August in Houston. I saw this yesterday and thought I just need him to hold it together just a little bit longer

i wonder if the response included a "back off, bitch"

He's letting one bad apple spoil the whole damn bunch. He should just ignore their double talkin' jive and take the money. Please don't damn me for saying this.

I think he actually lost a bit of weight from when the fat Axl picture was taken. His hair looks better too. When he had those shitty dreads, he looked like a fricking fool. Guess he got some good plugs or an expensive weave.

It's all just an illusion to use in order to feel better. He's so estranged from his true self, almost like he's having a civil war of emotions inside. I'd say it's a one in a million chance anything comes of this.

He should also be concerned with his ridiculous performance with AC/DC where his sitting the entire time with his leg elevated. Nursing home.

He broke his foot, dummy. He has to keep it elevated per the Dr.
ETA: Dave Grohl did the same thing on tour once and loaned Axl the chair he uses.
Not the chair in your link but this chair which is why it has FF on it. Axl had the FF covered with leather for other shows

He should have had the self-control in 2010 to not be fat.
He took the money from the public appearances in 2010 and knew there'd be cameras at the appearances.
It's not like the photographers trespassed to sneak the images.
He had an "Appetite for Destruction" back then.

West coast glutton
One fat momma
Got a rattlesnake suitcase under his arm
He's a mean machine
Drinking gasoline
Honey you can make hid motor hum

I never knew this was even a thing, but since he bitched about it:

Axl is about to learn about the Streisand Effect.
Trying to remove something from public consumption only increases the interest in it. Sort of like Axl and fatty foods.
