We reported earlier this week that rocker Axl Rose had been robbed of several pieces of hefty bling that ware valued at up to $200,000. The jewelry went missing after a Guns N’ Roses show in Paris, but the coveted items have now been recovered.
Axl was throwing an intimate party for around 130 people after the Gnr performance at the city’s Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy stadium when three of his gold and diamond encrusted necklaces went missing.
Well, apparently someone had too much to drink at the party that night as an unnamed model has returned the items to a Paris police station after she had mistakenly taken them in a drunken haze. The woman told the police that after a hard night of partying she awoke to the realization that she tucked away Mr. Rose's necklaces into her handbag after the gig. She is currently being held in custody.

Kanye West's "Runaway"

Kanye West is not one to aim low. The supremely self-confident rapper wasn't content to make a typical music video for his song "Runaway." No, Yeezy opted instead for a nearly 40-minute art film that puts him instantly into the realm of some of video music's biggest names, from Michael Jackson and Diddy to Lady Gaga and Guns N' Roses.
"Runaway," which will premiere on MTV and Bet on Saturday night at 8 p.m. Et, tells the story of a phoenix (model Selita Ebanks) who falls to Earth and is saved by Kanye (Griffin), but later burns up after suffering the ridicule of small-minded earthlings.
The convoluted plot, the ambitious scale and eye-popping visuals were inspired by some of Jackson's most beloved work, and West has said he...
