@aleeeee He weight was listed 160 in his 1998 mugshot during his wilderness years Click Here. Axl’s hair was short and you could see that his face has gotten fuller.

160?! I'd say like 150, maybe 145...He doesn't look that fat...
And in Apetite era I'd say he was surely under 145-140 pounds... Dude was a stick

@Rob @richard rasmuson He implied to the audience that he has a (short) adolescent height in one of his concerts with Guns N Roses in the early 90's

5'8" 1/2 for Axl is more than generous, he sometimes looks below that when he was younger in some photos. He seemed insecure about his height, every video of him shows him wearing high-heeled type shoes. I can't remember the exact quote, but he was referred to in high school as "the short redhead." The average height for Americans during his HS years was probably close to 5'9" meaning he was on the shorter end.

Seen Axl in person a few times, solid 5ft8....he's not tall by any stretch of the imagination, cute but not tall.

Saw them in concert recently. He looked about 5'8". I doubt he was ever 5'9". Maybe 5'8.5" in 80s and 90s and early 00s?

170 in the 90's? he was quite thin (maybe not as thin as in the 80's but still quite thin).
wouldn't guess more than 150-155...

Traci seemed about eye to eye with me so he should be taller than Axl, who is 5'8" max. I've seen Slash with enough people whose height I know to know he's no taller than 5'8.5" himself. In fact, my friend who acknowledges he's only 5'6" looked barely 2" side by side with Slash indoors and Slash was still in his 40s at this time.

Axl seems to be shorter than Slash who is around 5'9." Axl Rose always wore cowboy boots which gives him an extra 1.5 inches in height. Then again, he is still shorter than Slash who never stands up straight, even when Axl wears those high shoes.
5'8" max!

I disagree, despite Kurt Cobain having scoliosis, I could still him being taller than Axl. However I do see Slash having the edge on Kurt.

Look at the picture of him with Steven Tyler in the late 80’s, the one where axl has a white leather jacket. If Tyler was 5’9” or 10 Axl looks 5’7” max. They have similar shoes and Axl is standing straight while Tyler is slouching and still looks inches taller. Pictures can be deceiving but I would put money on a 5’8” peak for W. Axl Rose.

I think it’s common knowledge that Axl was the smallest of the original lineup, shorter than obviously Duff, Slash, Izzy (and yes even Adler when you look at 99% of the pictures of them together) He’s a small dude but he was incredibly talented and very dangerous lol. Never a full 5’ 9”

Back when they first got big around 86-88, I forget when it was, Axl gave his height as 5’ 8.5” exactly. It was from a magazine article. UGH I WISH I could find it. It also listed his favorite food as steak and his favorite sport as sex LOL. If anyone finds it please post it here I’ve been looking for it forever.

Axl is not 5ft 9 by any stretch. Seems about 5ft 8, maybe 5ft 7 now since he is older.

Flat 5'9, there is a mugshot of him that says he is "5'10" so I believe he is somewhere between 5'8 1/2 and 5'10, 175 cm should be perfect, morning height could be like 176-177, and his "real" one should be somewhere in the 175 range.

In a photo with RHCP back in 1990, he looks like a 5'7 next to a young John Frusciante (5ft8), on the other side Anthony Kiedis next to Axl Rose looks like 5'6.

I agree with the user below, probably 5’ 8”, at the most 5’ 9”. And yes, Steven Adler usually does appear to be taller than Axl.

Axl is most likely around 5’ 8” to 5’ 9”. I’ve never understood though why Steven Adler is listed as 5’ 7”, as most old Guns N‘ Roses photos as well as photos of just Steven and Axl show Steven to be taller.

Downgrade is needed - He still looks below average height even wearing lifts/cowboy boots?

This is a guy that wore big shoes a lot so its almost impossible to pin point his actual height. I would doubt it was ever a full five eight and a half. Most people usually lie about there height by about an inch so if he was claiming 5'9 at one point Im going to say 5'8 peak and maybe a fraction under that now. I believe this guy was more like 130-140lbs peak as well considering his small frame. I'm around this height and when I was 18 I was probably a little larger frame then Rose and weighed like 147lbs.

Never taller than 5'8", imo. His booking sheet in '92 actually gave a ridiculous 5'10"! Click Here Slash himself might not be taller than 5'8.5". I wouldn't be surprised if Axl was anywhere in that 5'7.5"-5'8" range. It's certainly possible he's lost a fraction as well. Glenn was even saying 5'8" for Axl in the old comments and I don't think there was much difference in their photos.

For sure between 67 and 70. The police report ones, while reliable, will be exaggerated due to footwear, which, for men, add between .5'' and 2''. So the tallest the reports could place him at is 69.5''. I definitely think he would want to exaggerate, as well. I would say it's fair to say he was a legit 69'' in his youth. However, with bad posture and aging, he likely stands at about 67.5'' now.

there's a 1989 performance of him singing Salt Of The Earth with Mick Jagger and he looks 2 inches shorter than Jagger, one inch visible, one other you can guess from his boots compared to Jagger's ballerina-like shoes. If Jagger was really 5'10 back then, that would make Axl around 5'8, at least as his peak height.

"HGT:510, WGT:170 (shoes - custom white Converse), also HAIR: Brown EYES:Blue, and CHARGE ...." That was 1992 and its way off.
His 1998 arrest - HGT:5'9, WGT:160 also HAIR: Red EYES:Green so that seems be more reaslic but still I think it should peak height: 5'9, current height 5'8

I met both Axl, Izzy and Dizzy Read in 2006 when they came to the UK. Axl was the smallest about 5ft8.5, Izzy looked about 5ft10 maybe 5ft11 (same height as me) and Dizzy was definitely a solid 6ft.

Back in their prime during the late 80s to mid 90s Kurt is roughly an inch taller than Axl despite the fact Kurt had scoliosis. Slash was a good inch or 2 taller than Axl and Izzy looked a good 2 and half inches taller than Axl. Their heights now could be different as they might have shrunk due to age.

He's a bit taller than Steven Adler ( 5ft7 )
He's shorter than Slash ( 5ft9 at the very most )
5ft8 is really fair for him .

Had back stage passes to a concert about 10 years ago in Tampa. I had just walked into the "common area" when Axl popped out of some room with a phone to his ear. He was in a serious convo with whoever was on the other end. Something to do with being paid for something. I was absolutly ****ting a brick when I saw him. He was completely oblivious to my presence. As soon as he got off the phone, I walked up to him just to say "hi". He totally looked at me like I raped his mom. It was ackward. I said something like: "sorry to bother you, but I think you're awesome" and he just grinned and walked back into his room. Anyway, I'm about 5'8.5" without shoes and he was probably as tall if not a little shorter. At the very least, he was looking me in the eye when I spoke to him. He's average height. Below average personality. Kind of a duesch..

He is 5'9, if not taller. The ludicrous 5'6-5'7 claims probably come from insecure people who are obviously not comfortable with their height.

How tall is Stephanie Seymour isnt she like 5ft10?? Just asking as I saw a picture of her an Axl together in the old days and they are the same height, and she has 2 inch heel boots on in the picture, he is in DMs, so he must have been around 5ft 11 minimum at one point. Is there a page for Seymour, can we have one, as she maybe exaggerating her height LOL

5'8.5" sounds perfect for him these days. His peak may have been 5'9". He's got the stage presence of a legit 6-footer though.
He's a lot cooler than most 174centimeterites.

Yeah, Robbie. If you go check out government stats on average height for males in the Unites States, average tends to be just a little bit over 5' 10. So Axl is just a little bit under the national average, I wouldn't call him "short"

Robbie thats because a lot of people who comment on this site see the world as if 6'5" is the norm. They comment from the view that they are all 6'5" and even 5'11-6'0 is "short". Claiming Axel Rose who in my view is indeed around 5'9" as "very short" just goes to show the warped view people have of the world. He is an average height guy. If he was 5'4" then we call him "very short" or "dwarf".

It's strange, a lot of people who claim they saw him in la back in 2001 said "he was very short, about 5'8.75-5'9" I don't quite understand why people would say 5'9 is very short but maybe they expected him to be 6'2 or somthing.
Anyway the man is a genious, even if he doesn't hit all the standards (height included) but thats what hes all about right? Not living up to anyones opinion of him.

Yeah, I just recently experienced the same thing with pavement again in NYC in pictures. I saw Ripper Owens at 5-10 in person and in my pictures he looked 5-11 or 6-0. Which is because pavement can be inconsistent.
By the way I'd like to point out that in early 2006 Glenn said he had heard Chinese Democracy would be a 3-part album and people doubted him but in 2007 Sebastian Bach said the same thing in an interview.

Glenn, I agree. I now wish I hadn't heard so many of the demos. Still a killer album. By the way, you should put back up that pic of Axl where you both look the exact same height. I remember way back in '06 it used to be on here, it was a recent pic of him, he had cornrows and was wearing a red shirt. You two looked pretty much identical in height, so I'm guessing he was wearing regular running shoes. You remember the one I'm talking about?

Hey guys, as you can tell from my name, I live in Los Angeles, CA. From 1992-1993 I worked at Tower Video on Sunset Blvd (The same one that Slash and Axl actually worked at in the 80's). Many celebrities came in to rent or buy videos there. One day in early '93, I was eye to eye with Axl who was nothing but sweet and gentlemanly. I'm 5'8" but he was shorter than me, which was weird when I thought about it, but then I realized he has really bad posture and slouches a good two inches at least. Watch video of him and you'll see what I mean...almost like a hunchback sometimes. So I believe he is 5'9" when he stands up straight. It's a cherished memory to have met him, answered his questions about laserdiscs and shaking his hand after getting an autograph. He really is a good guy.

I strongly disagree brent, it is clear that glenn is 5'8 , you need to open your eyes and take a better look , if axl is 5'9 according to glenn -then it's obvious that glenn is at least one inch shorter then axl, making glenn 5'8.

Check out this video clip. In two instances, people who saw mention how short he is.
Click Here
Also, this picture of Axl and Slash back-to-back is very telling. Even though you can't see footwear, let's assume they're in similar footwear. Axl is standing straight up, and Slash is leaning back a bit. You can clearly see Slash's shoulder's are higher and if he were to straighten up, he'd have a good 1-1.5 inches on Axl.

There's no way he's taller than 5'8.

Izzy remarked in the past that Axl was known for being 'the short red head' in High School. If you look at old guns pictures you can see he was the shortest in the band next to Adler.

ah shame. well i can always be hopeful, plan to go to every date of their next UK tour, which should be a laugh. I know bbf (especially) and the rest of them meet fans, met slash in london recently, had a chat, hes sounded like a nice guy (at least while chatting to me nehoo).
If all fails i plan to go over to NYC and LA in 2/3 years time, ill make an effort to bump into him.

axl is very fan friendly.if you bump into him.at shows he keeps to himself usually.or at least not hanging out with fans.not to my knowledge at least.in other words concerts arnt the best spot to meet him.in new york it relaxed over here when he enters or exits a show surprisingly.in l.a. where he live or other parts of the world he has police escort sometimes.

Woah nice photos Glenn. Ive been a GNR since i was 12 so when they came touring over in london in 06 i probably had the two best nights of my life. Unfortunatly, didnt get to see him offstage, does he normally meet/sign stuff for fans after gigs?

Don't know if you've heard Glenn. But rumor is that Axl is in a pissing match with the label over marketing funding. It's at a stalemate now and the album is nowhere in sight until one side caves in.

Hey Glenn, there was one pic up last year, it was taken in '06, where you and Axl were the same height. I'm guessing he's wearing those snazzy red dress shoes with the heel in this recent pic as he looks 1.5-2 inches taller than you.

Hey Glenn, I know that you've chilled with Axl on numerous occasions over the last 20 years. Do you recall how often you saw him during those times when he was mainly hanging low (94-01, 03-05)? Not looking an exact number or anything, just an estimation. Thanks.
Love the site, keep up the good work.

he left new york almost or exactly a month ago.he was here 6-8 weeks before that.long before the fires.im not sure whats going on with the cd.my educational guess,being im a music and industry expert,is that they are preparing a promotional campaign.trying to figure out best time to release,first single,track listing and order.and like i said,there was monetary issues involved.or to be settled.and he fired his management team over a year ago.so maybe he deciding what label to have it released on and have whole different team behind it.not sure.didnt really talk to him this trip.only his people.he can be moody.nothing new.usually a great guy.

hi glenn! axl is 5ft9, which in fact is 176.5cm near 177cm, I'm telling you this 'cause I just converted it on the calculator, and I saw a mugshot of him circa 1997 and it said 5ft10, but surely he is 5.9ft. You should change it, respond please. Great site btw. You can see the heights of all the rockrstars, but nobody is shorter than AC/DC. Having said all that, I love them all.

Idk, i hope it comes this year, but im doubtfull. although the guitarist did say in an email after these dates they will focus fully on getting the album out. but to me im afraid well get like 2002-06. 4 years of silence. although, this time the band announced thhey were mixing/recording was done. so hopefully we do get a firm release date soon. keep us updated if you hear anything after the tour ends!

glenn, is it true that axl may have died 11 years ago in a car crash as I have just seen it on the website that i went on and they said that he may have died 11 years ago. I am shocked it's either that people who says it in the first place are sick and don't know how much they have made gnr fans angry and anyway this is what it says on the website: French rock-critic says in a book to be published within few weeks that Axl died 8 years ago (1996) as a consequence of a car crash ! Geffen Records (Universal) decided to keep the secret and hired a man who looked like Axl (some surgery was needed). His voice, as a matter of fact, doesn't sound as the original Axl.
Slash refused to stay in the band. Duff and Matt left it later...
I don't think it's true, but IF it was, it would be the greatest Rock 'N' Roll swindle in the history !!!
Not just a newgnr, but a new Axl Rose in front of us !
More amazing than Saddam's tricks or Da Vinci Code...
And a sentence like "You think you know, but you have no idea" would make sense.
I know that them pics that you have got above looks like axl (the last one I mean but they have just spinned me right out. Thanx I'm sorry to bother you I am only 15 and confused with weird rumours these days p.s. I like the first two pics of axl and you amazing it's about 16 years old was both taken on first day if it was wow what a difference

I am shocked it's either that people who says it in the first place are sick and don't know how much they have made gnr fans angry and anyway this is what it says on the website: French rock-critic says in a book to be published within few weeks that Axl died 8 years ago (1996) as a consequence of a car crash ! Geffen Records (Universal) decided to keep the secret and hired a man who looked like Axl (some surgery was needed). His voice, as a matter of fact, doesn't sound as the original Axl.
Slash refused to stay in the band. Duff and Matt left it later...
I don't think it's true, but IF it was, it would be the greatest Rock 'N' Roll swindle in the history !!!
Not just a newgnr, but a new Axl Rose in front of us !
More amazing than Saddam's tricks or Da Vinci Code...
And a sentence like "You think you know, but you have no idea" would make sense.
I know that them pics that you have got above looks like axl (the last one I mean but they have just spinned me right out. Thanx I'm sorry to bother you I am only 15 and confused with weird rumours these days p.s. I like the first two pics of axl and you amazing it's about 16 years old was both taken on first day if it was wow what a difference

At this point Im not sure If it will ever come out. I mean, how many times has it been pushed back now? Countless. Either this GNR album is going to suck or its going to be an absolute rock classic. Its been in the making since 1994!!

Funny thing about singers:
Anthony Kiedis: 174 cm (RHCP)
Axl Rose: 174 cm (G'n R)
Mike Patton: 175 cm (FNM)
Coincidence :P

I know you've probably got this question about a million times but do you have any idea when the albums coming out? I know they're going on tour in Australia and New Zealand soon and I don't think they'll release it until they get back to the U.S. but I could be wrong.

glenn, could you please tell me what year and why axl had survived a drug overdose as I found info on internet that on the song "Coma" it was either a message to steven adler or a drug overdose that he survived as it goes on that the doctors that you can hear speaking in the song was the actual doctors that saved his life. thanks

Hi everyone,
great website and even better comment. Glenn, I am sooo jealous!!! I love G 'n' Roses since my teenage years (now I'm 28)! My dream came true on 30.7.'06 in London where I've seen them for a first time (hope not the last one). Of course I love to meet Axl backstage as many others. How big is my chance to make my dream come true ;-))))? Probably not very big ;-(((Do you have an idea whether they comming this or next year to Europe?Thanx ;-X

That seems about right. and by the way he looks practically the same except the extensions. Where is all this talk about plastic surgery coming from?

True, but the new band will never reach the heights of the late 80s Guns N' Roses. They were awesome back then. I'm 26, was too young and never got to see them live in their peak. A lot of kids these days and people in early 20s don't know who Guns are. Crazy. That's what happens when you're away for too long.

My friend met Axl backstage after a show. She said he was about 5'9. She also said Axl was quite nice (she said they had a conversation about hamburgers) until someone brought him fake White Castle, which ticked him off.

All evidence for Axl is correct, saw him in concert in 1992, he had Converse basketball shoes on, he was 5'8" no more no less......a lot of pics he wears boots.....judging from how he wrecked himself with plastic surgery....he might resort to lifts now.....still he's 5'8"
