Broad Street Oyster's shady patio in Cross Creek has a long list of A-list regulars. But for owner Christopher Tompkins, one celebrity stands out: Axl Rose and his mom.

In a [recent podcast, ](https://www.tiktok.com/@ughitsjoe/video/7608019061116505375?_r=1&_t=ZT-94ahlVZjIEv&utm_source=www.stringermalibu.com&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=malibu-stringer-3-11-26&_bhlid=713c5cc41b3d4583bcd8594d20eb28726974ca49)Tompkins named the Guns N' Roses frontman and Rose's mother as his favorite celebrity customers.

"This little old lady comes out of a G-wagon, and she's with Axl Rose," Tompkins said, "I always thought that was cool to see."

Of note is that Rose's mother, Sharon Lintner, died of cancer in 1996.

The woman Tompkins appears to be referencing is Beta Lebeis, Rose's longtime assistant and ["surrogate mother"](google.com/url?q=https://elink249.stringermalibu.com/ss/c/u001.lktKMIf2AOmHa3l5pD-9dtJuY1kCmxFMLRaygXUT5ctcHA-fKWLHLhS42uRf1B83kpOrY2pbdhJKgMy5SsMh4u1RLVSq-smGX9nTW7Wr_jCZBYZyUiJhkURU4Po64dPSPudRfW4uBmzmwF5hOzotZJDkH2hzA7ZbzTO5dRYbHs4-thYJv5pgkV0f9CsPBR811tZuBd9U_Lt2q6R8N2j-LiHRfNKvvHppAWZGb1VAYUPj9Ln2lzn_fgSXvyay2bmrbABF-eWwdD6YoJNC5w0YS9HhkJhw9jVFmqO7zr7A1S-FWRSn9l80mdeXh4Vhuyie7AiABvCz0-JbHVN2i7Ai7qRQfryujbOFTMefHlOvtwgQDtk-NiSnszuCYD3ykBJxD117GGZAYF2-rBFhEo5cAfInrsIUhM2nvYKNLUEyYjfLK7QnOlN8Tv1eLb4Epz9CG-pAoIYSyugvxhjCUJ1ZGFa6GXm-ANpbcqhkvtcEDD8MpTFLbtWAhT_zMB6a7SXL/4ov/MVfgdYjzSci26hlm_S1ynQ/h6/h001.6LYXQ21idoB3hdZJ-dYJPdfQGl0uzffo8F5CAYqUYY0&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1785969485084485&usg=AOvVaw0VWKwwFbWseo_GnwnbGklM) who lives with his family in Latigo Canyon.
