Michelle pics

[sergejg]

Does anybody has a picture of the girl wich inspired the song "My Michelle"?

[N.I.B]

dude i highly doubt ur gonna find pictures of Michelle Young. Shes just an average Joe off the streets of Lafeytte.

[AdZ]

There is an issue of Spin which featured her, I just have no idea which one it was.

But there's stuff out there.

She wasnt from Lafeytte, she was from LA.

[Dizzy]

July 1999, the issue with Axl on the cover.? There is a picture of her with Slash in 1979 when they were in high school.  She was also interviewed for that issue.

Shes just an average Joe off the streets of Lafeytte.

As chineseblues pointed out, Michelle Young isn't from Indiana, she is from L.A.? ?She went to high school with Steven Adler and Slash.? She only met Axl through Steven and Slash.

[Lady Livin]

sry my bad. i thought that Axl n Michelle met in Indiana.

[Dizzy]

Alicemudgarden,

Yes, Michelle is saluting in that photo with Slash.

Did Michelles mum do heroin? n did her daddy work in porno??

Axl and I were riding in a car one day, and "Your Song" by Elton John came on.  I told Axl I wish someone would write a beautiful song about me.  But you know how the song [My Michelle] goes...at the time I didn't care because I was fucked up all the time, but what the song says is all true: my dad does distribute porno films and my mom did die.

wow, that info is very interesting. Hey is she a GNR friend after all this years? could it be posible that Slash and Axl still got common friends? or they all have to take sides?

[Lady Livin]

[nesquick]

is it Slash on the right? he looks like a Jackson 5
Michelle seems cute, she was probably 20 on that pic, she seems pretty young.

[N.I.B]

she is cute. lol. yeah thats slash (aka Saul Hudson) on the right.

[Dizzy]

The relationship between Michelle and Axl splintered in the early 1990s.

Axl and I had a falling out.? I was high one night, and I was pushing his buttons.? I said 'you're famous now, you don't need your friends.'? He said 'get out of my face'.

Predictably, good ol' uncle Axl badmouthed her on stage after that.? He would introduce the song "My Michelle" by saying, God I hate that bitch right now!

I'm not sure if she and Slash speak anymore, but she and Axl feasibly do not.? You know Axl, he probably speaks to no one even remotely affiliated with the original band.

is it Slash on the right? he looks like a Jackson 5

No, she's way younger in that pic.  The magazine caption said Michelle and Slash were in high school in 1979 in that photo.  That means Slash is 14 years old right there.  She's probably around that age.

Indeed he looks like the lost sixth Jackson, hehehe. Now It all makes sense (slash playing solos with MJ).

Dizzy thanks for the info and alicemudgarden thanks for the pic!

[Cornell]

Now here's something that I forgot that I knew. 

Thanks for bringing it up!

Slash look a lot older, but he had long hair when he was around 18, so it seems to be acceptable that he's only 14-15 years old in this picture. At least now I understand how a 13-years-old boy can get a 26-years-old girlfriend. You have to be Slash 

[lovethisguys]

great great picture, thanks a lot!!!!

Im all confused! Michelle was Slash's girlfriend? and she was like 10 years older than him???

[willow]

No she is younger then him! She is like 14 in the pic.

[inebriated_weirdo]

" I told Axl I wish someone would write a beautiful song about me"

Oh, how subtle 

is it Slash on the right? he looks like a Jackson 5

lolololololol, you guys just made my day.

Thats so funny. Awwwh, Slash was so cute

[//JK75]

Nice story... I would love to read more about GNR songs...

Jarmo, is that article in your site ?

[*Izzy*]

Wow thx for that awesome pic.
How cool to see the girl who inspired "My Michelle". I love that song!!!

Yep too bad Axl ranted about her. Big surprise.

When did he rant about her?

  Izzy?

[Spandex Angel]

onstage and stuff before he introduce My Michelle

[Twisted Nerve 85]

If that is Slash, he looks hell of alot like the character "Spanish" from the movie Old School. 

[willow]

Well it is!!

[MikeB]

In that pic , Slash looks like he should be jamming with Jackson 5.

20?? I was going to say 12.

[Albert S Miller]

Izzy had a relationship with Michelle first, when they split, Axl liked her, I believe that Axl talks a little bit about the situation either in the making of "Don't Cry" or "November Rain", maybe it might even be "Estranged" it's one of them anyway. Axl stated that by both he and Izzy having a relationship with her just allowed them to share a little more common ground.  I remember it is the making of "Don't Cry".  Surley you know she is tattooed on Axl's right arm!!!!!

ive been laugh for about five minutes straight about this.

Izzy never dated Michelle Young. I'm pretty sure the girl you speak of is Angela Nicoletti, Izzy's live-in girlfriend whom Axl had a crush of sorts on. It's never been proven that the girl inked on his arm is Michelle, in fact I doubt it. They were just friends who went out for a while.

Very cool to see the girl who inspired one of my favorite Guns tracks. . .

I'm guessing it was taken before he discovered those leather trousers in the trash...

[Sin Cut]

I thought she would be a lot prettier.

[xxMarcelaxx]

Yeah that's the pic I was talking about!!! I'm glad I got to see it again!!

as I previously quoted , I have watched the words come straight out of Axl's mouth on video, how much more factual can that be.  Yes Izzy did date Michelle before Axl, and Axl does state that Michelle is inked on his arm, seriously speaking get ahold of the video you will see then that I am speaking the truth!!!!

[RachieRose]

I've watched the Making of Don't Cry numerous times, and I don't remember anyone saying the girl on Axl's arm was Michelle. They talked about a nameless chick on Axl's arm who dated both of them, and then broke up with Axl, telling him "don't cry." I was very interested in that portion, so I paid close attention. I don't think either of them mention her name. Guess I'll just have to watch it again?

[HellRevisited]

Axl never dated Angela Nicoletti,she went from Izzy to Andy McCoy-who she married.
since the tattoo is pre-Erin,my guess is it's either Barbi(rocket queen) or Gina(the girl who went to L.A with Axl)-but then maybe it's someone none of us ever heard of.

He had know I idea then what he would grow up to achieve

msaxl wishes to apologize in regards to that.  As soon as I posted I went and watched video closely once again and realized the same.  They did not mention her name, I must have just assumed that  all along, but truley I still think its her.  Look at the picture of her with Slash and look at the tat, pretty darn close, anyway sorry again my bad.

I don't think it's Gina either cause after Axl became famous, he supposedly wouldn't even claim that he knew her.

O.K. i lied, but not on purpose, I just thought I was damn sure lol!!!!
