Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose has been robbed of $200,000 of jewelry in Paris.

The "Paradise City" singer said thieves took three gold-and-diamond necklaces from an after party following the group's show at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy A police source said Axl was "fuming" about the theft and confirmed the rocker wasn't wearing his necklaces at the time they were stolen. Judicial police have launched an investigation, and hope to quickly find the culprits.

Guns N' Roses have met with frequent troubles on their current European tour, with heavy criticism for taking to the stage late, in many cases later than after 11pm. In London, the band - of which Axl is the only original member - threatened to walk off stage if fans continued to throw money and plastic cups at them after they took to the stage 50 minutes late.

"If you throw any f***ing thing on stage, we'll go home," said bass player Tommy Stinson.
