During her March 13 show at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, CA, Carrie Underwood was joined onstage by Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose for a performance of “Welcome To The Jungle.” You can see fan-filmed footage of that below. This news follows several onstage collaborations between the two artists.
Guns N’ Roses have officially been confirmed for this year’s Glastonbury Festival. That event will take pace at Worthy Farm in Somerset, UK on June 21-25 and it will also feature Artic Monkeys, Elton John, Måneskin, Nova Twins, Royal Blood, and tons more.
The NASCAR vehicle that Guns N’ Roses sponsored during the recent Daytona 500 in Daytona Beach, FL ended up in a multi-car crash. As a result, its driver, Erik Jones (no. 43), was unable to finish the race.
Jones told NASCAR.com the following:
“It looked like the 45 got turned around, but I couldn’t see how it happened or how it had happened, but regardless, we spun off there on the bottom trying to get around and then got hit, left side hard enough to take out the left rear and just kind of end our day. So, it is what it is. We went out, we were racing, we were doing all we could and, you know, we were just in the wrong spot at the wrong time. Wish we could’ve been a little ahead of him.”
Frontman Axl Rose also commented via Twitter:
“The race was exciting!! 🏁🎉🏁☠️🏁
Congratulations to Ricky Stenhouse Jr! 🏆🏁
Erik Jones was doing great! Sucked he got taken out! 😫 Was great to b a part of such a huge n’ historic event! 👍😎 All the best to the Legacy Motor Club going forward!! 💪😎👊 Thank you and everyone at NASCAR for letting us be a part of your world!! 🙏👍🤘💪👊🏁😎🏁🤩🔥

Guns N’ Roses will be sponsoring a NASCAR team during the upcoming Daytona 500. That event will be held in Daytona Beach, FL on February 19 and it will find Erik Jones (no. 43) driving a band-branded car. Legacy Motor Club and Guns N’ Roses recently unveiled the vehicle on social media:
Funko have announced a new 5″ premium Gold vinyl figure based on Guns N’ Roses bassist Duff McKagan. Pre-orders are currently available HERE. Notably, fans that purchase the figure will have a chance of scoring a chase variant featuring a skull face.
Guns N’ Roses’ music video for “November Rain” has officially surpassed 2 billion views on YouTube. That track appears on the band’s 1991 album “Use Your Illusion I.“
During a recent interview with Yahoo! Entertainment, Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash discussed the band’s past acts of debauchery. The musician also admitted that their behavior “would’ve gotten [them] canceled in this day and age.”
Slash said the following:
“I haven’t actually… thought about it in that context. To be honest, I haven’t really thought about all that [scandalous stuff] that much recently. But now that you mention it, most of everything that [Guns N’ Roses] did would’ve gotten us canceled in this day and age.”
He also added:
“We would not have fared well in this environment, for sure… on so many different levels. But I mean, a lot of things from back then would not be what you consider acceptable at this moment in time. … I’m just glad that we didn’t have the internet back then! It would’ve been a different world altogether. But anyway, I don’t dwell on all that stuff. It just is what it is.”

Earlier today (January 22), Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose paid tribute to Lisa Marie Presley with a performance of “November Rain” during a public memorial service at Graceland. You can see fan-filmed footage of that below. Rose said the following:
“I never in a million years imagined being here, singing under these circumstances. I do know Lisa loved her family very much, and was fiercely protective of her father and his legacy.”
