Axl Rose Haircut: Resemblance to Charles Bronson in ‘Death Wish’ and Westerns

Normally I leave the Axl's hair and style threads up to Miser, but I felt compelled to start this thread after stumbling across this comparison of my favorite singer to my favorite action hero.

Axl Rose Haircut: Resemblance to Charles Bronson in ‘Death Wish’ and Westerns

Recently, we reported that Axl Rose had made waves by taking off his fedora and showing off a new, short haircut.

The response to this new look has been mixed, with some fans saying, "His hair looks great." One fan was indignant that we suggested Axl take a tip from Robert Pattinson and even went so far as to say, "Yes, a music legend is going to take advice from a soon to be has-been actor."

Now, it appears that Axl Rose's new look has some distinct similarities with that of Charles Bronson, who died in 2003. Best known for his roles as a vigilante in "Death Wish," Bronson was a favorite with older women everywhere, with his hair flopping over his forehead and his sparse mustache.

Despite the overabundance of facial hair and the sagging jawline, Bronson had a tough, ruthless look about him, which fitted his role as the avenger of his dead wife and daughter in "Death Wish."

Now that Axl Rose's look has started to resemble Bronson's, we can imagine him as a vigilante or a gunslinger in the wild west, roles that Bronson played to perfection.

Imagine a scene where the lights come on and Axl is standing in the middle of the stage, a hat on his head, a gun in his hand. He shoots the bad guys and blows the smoke off his gun, then turns to the audience, where women swoon.

I think Axl needs a jacket like Bronson's too. Those chicks all wearing the same leather tights?

I think the 70's Bronson look would suit Axl.

Bronson is too cool to draw parrallels with faded rockstars.

Anyone remember when people had to get degrees in journalism and they wrote about important things and had integrity?

This topic is absurd and will only contribute to stupid posts that will end in an Axl bashing fest.

I think it's time for Axl to come out with a GNR cologne.

Yeah I don't really see it to be honest... Maybe it's just because I'm not familiar with Charles Bronson :S

I think Axl is wearing a bronson jacket.

Keith Lemon is a badass.

I think the guy who wrote the article mistook Axl's Hulk Hogan moustache for a Charles Bronson moustache.
