You Thought So!

The volatile front man of Guns ‘n Roses Axl Rose did not perform at the Live Earth stage in Rio and he wants every single (remaining) fan to know why. In a ridiculous move, Axl called for a press release wherein he whined about why he did not perform at the concert series.

He points out that he was not asked to perform at the benefit concert until the last couple of weeks and the band was already book for a tour in Australia as well as other sold-out dates in Japan. Al Gore himself was the one that asked Axl to perform with Lenny Kravitz but Lenny ended up canceling due to an injury. However, Lenny recovered and winded up performing in Rio.

Er, does anyone care?

Nicole Richie isn’t the only one having some legal troubles. Rapper Busta Rhymes, whose real name is Trevor Smith, arrived in a Manhattan court on Tuesday to proclaim his innocence. And he has to proclaim it many times over.

The rapper is now facing four court trials. That’s worse than Nicole and Paris Hilton combined. He was accused of attacking two men, driving drunk and driving with a suspended license. A judge just denied a motion to consolidate some of those allegations.

Busta is going to need all the luck in the world. Otherwise, he’s busted. It’s corny, I know.
