Manhattan smackdown: Axl vs. Tommy

Apparently Axl Rose and Tommy Hilfiger don't get along.

The rocker and designer topped off a Thursday evening outing at The Plumm in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood with a late night slapfest.

The unrehearsed smackdown reportedly started after the Guns N' Roses front man moved the drink of Hilfiger's girlfriend, Dee Ocleppo.

"I moved his girlfriend's drink so it wouldn't spill," Rose told the Los Angeles radio station KROQ on Friday. "It was the most surreal thing, I think, that's ever happened to me in my life."

According to the 44-year-old singer, Hilfiger, 55, smacked him in the arm and told him to put the drink back.

"He just kept smacking me," Rose said.

Rose was there to play a surprise set for "Rent" actress Rosario Dawson for her 27th birthday party.

The Plumm was jammed with a celebrity crowd including Lenny Kravitz, Mickey Rourke, Kid Rock, Peter Beard, Molly Simms, Wentworth Miller, Ann Dexter Jones, Lydia Hearst and Damon Dash.

Rose did perform, and dedicated the song "You're Crazy" to "my good friend Tommy Hilfiger."
