This is the most hilarious thing I've ever heard. Tommy Hilfiger gets into it with Axl Rose. The designer went postal on Axl over a VIP table, and hit the rocker with multiple punches, one landing right under Axl's eye. Who new that Rosario Dawson's party would be so exciting?
"First [Axl and Tommy] were sitting. Then they were pulling on each other . . . It got so out of control," said a shocked witness. As the punch-up escalated, Hilfiger introduced Rose to some "November Pain" with a blow to the cheek. Club guards quickly tried to separate the men."A bunch of security ran over - but Tommy would not back down. He was just out to take him down," the witness said. "Kid Rock got trampled by people running over. It was unbelievable." Eventually, the designer's own bodyguard pulled him out of the club.
Yesterday, club owner Noel Ashman pointed the finger at Hilfiger: "Axl was a gentleman and had the good sense not to retaliate, as he would have done some serious damage to Hilfiger." Rose said the attack was unprovoked, in an interview with The Post in his dressing room.
The singer said Hilfiger may have been angry because he'd been told to move to make room for Rose and his entourage. Rose described Hilfiger as "foaming at the mouth."
Hilfiger's peeps would not comment yesterday.
Lordy. This wasn't the only altercation at party. Rosario Dawson's own mother got into a shoving match with a woman who kept bumping into her.
We're told that Dawson's feisty mom, Isabel - a longtime Lower East Side resident who sometimes sports a mohawk - served up a smackdown on a woman who kept bumping into her at the jam-packed West 14th Street nightclub, where Guns N' Roses performed an acoustic set."Someone was pushing into Rosario's mom, and they just started pushing each other," one eyewitness tattled to Page Six. "Then they got into a big punching fight before it got broken up by security."
Only in New York.

How can you show your face after getting bitch slapped by a has-been fashion designer?
YesMam says:
I guess bad publicity is better than none...
Gretchen Weiners says:
Is Tommy doing a karate chop??
Alexi says:
Tommy goes Ka-POW!
Gretchen, I'm sorry that I laughed at you the time you got diarrhea at Barnes and Noble.
Rooney says:
Wow! Tommy is really going trailer trash all the way. First step was getting Wal-Mart to carry his clothing line and now fist fights in bars! LOL
K says:
Now this is what was supposed to have taken place back in '89 when Vince challenged Axl to a fight! I wonder if Axl did his catty screech during this fight? Or maybe Axl he needs a little publicity because Chinese Democracy is coming out.

Tommy Hilfiger is meeting the same people on his way down as he did on his way up. If anyone has any ideas how to collect a debt from him PLEASE let me know. It literally makes me ill when he has it plastered all over that he sold his company for over a billion dollars. Remember me , Tommy. I supported you. I will never stop until paid back, Socialite's Life. Please
Hate says:
I don't care about Axl Rose, but I wouldn't mind seeing Hilfiger get run over by a bus.

I need to clear up as I know the facts to be.Two supposed facts , though it might sound a little bi-polar.
Tommy is STRAIGHT. He is 100% straight.I haven't been with him every day since we were together but he loved women. All women, which is why I left him...............To many of them while living with him. Older, younger, all kinds Trust me...if you want too. Just telling from seeing it first hand.
2) The Oprah fiasco, since having lots of time being sick, I've had to much time to check things written by others....many things. And it will continue until the end. He has friends 'Black to White, Indian, Russian to Jewish, Country people, Blue collar, White collar' and all inbetween. He stayed with my parents when he visited and I thought he might have a problem because I had a step-brother who was...odd. Nope, wrong guy.
I need to write a book, though who would buy the 3rd copy.
He's a definate American story. But it would be impossible unless he would talk to me...he wants others to let things go, he should start with himself.
The other facts remain. I want to be paid back. ....and let me guess'Checks in the Mail'
(That has always stung)
PSS-I know I can't spell and my English on paper is barely English...I seem to write so much more than others. There is a book.
