Axl Rose Found Dead of Sh*tty Hoax Website at Age 52

It appears we have the world’s first hoax serial killer on our hands. Only weeks after Judd Nelson was reported dead by a fake Fox News website, a fake MSNBC site is now reporting that Axl Rose was found dead in his home at the age of 52.

This humble scribe’s favorite bit is that the hoax bothered to call the reports “unconfirmed.” It’s fake, dude; you can go ahead and confirm it.

On that note Mediaite reached out to Rose’s camp to check on his pulse, and will update accordingly.
