[edit] Married?

Is there a source for the statement regarding Alexi's marriage to Elyah? I hadn't heard that anywhere. Upon examining the history, I saw Dislexi Le-ho removed it, but Saber girl08 reverted it. That puts me under the impression that it is generally known that they are married. I'm a little skeptical, but I see Saber girl08 is a respectable wiki-er. To sate my own curiosity, can someone produce a source? Thanks :) FalseLobster 05:03, 11 April 2007 (UTC)


This has actually been recently discovered by members of the official Children Of Bodom forum. It's totally not true, because he never re-married, in fact, he is still married to Kimberly Goss for legal reasons. There is no proof that he got re-married. Interesting note I've discovered; type Elyah Lewdalc on Google and you'll get only 2 results, linking back to wikipedia. One to Alexi Laiho and the other to Aiden. Read the history and you'll find that the same IP address which added in the statement about Alexi's marriage also added the statement about Elyah Lewdalc and one of the Aiden members.

So anywho, long story short; SHE DOES NOT EXIST!!

[edit] Question

I was going through some online music forum, when I saw this pic of Alexi Laiho kissing this bearded guy on the lips. My question: is he gay? Can someone explain this?

[edit] Answer

Either photoshopped or really really drunk. I've seen a gif of him kissing a guy.

[edit] Answer

No he's not gay, the image you found was most likely photoshopped. Dying2live 20:16, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Answer

He's gay... there's a video that proves it....

Kissing another man does not mean he's gay. It's as much proof as kissing a tree means you're an arborphile, or kissing a puppy means you're into bestiality. Or even kissing your mother goodnight does not mean incest. Unless he explicitly states he's gay... that video is hardly any proof. --Dayn 09:50, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
If he was gay, he wouldn't have dated/married Kimberly Goss and he wouldn't sing about fucking her in Kylahullut songs. 210.246.8.99 07:00, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

He isnt gay he states so on the Stockholm Knockout Live DVD interviews. I'll write something about it on the page. Can't have people thinking my hero is gay... not that theres much wrong with that82.20.247.133 01:56, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

He is not gay. There was and article in a finnish tabloid that he and kanne wirman had a full blown gay relationship. they thought it was funny, and decided to keep the rumor going. The bearded guy he was kissing was janne. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.178.123.41 (talk) 07:52, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Biography

Shouldn't the biography section be divided into several parts? I think it would look neater that way. Just a suggestion. If no one wants to do it, I can do it. --Zouavman Le Zouave 10:48, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tattoo?

According to the page: "He has the letters "COBHC" (Children of Bodom Hate Crew) tattooed on his hand as an homage to Ozzy Osbourne, who has a similar tattoo." Ozzy osbourne has a similar tattoo? As in he has COBHC tattooed on his hand? I don't get that quote

It implies that Alexi's tattoo on his knuckles is similiar to Ozzy's tattoo, which is also on the knuckles except with the letters "O-Z-Z-Y" Dying2live 21:47, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

I think I have seen in many pictures his tattoo is actually the letters "H-A-T-E" (right hand) and "C-O-B-H-C" (left hand), maybe that part should be changed so that it's clearer. 210.246.12.54 08:24, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Yea he has COBHC on his left hand and HATE on his right, you can see this on some pics on google if you google his name, i edited the bit, but somebody may want to reword it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.210.66.190 (talk) 22:39, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright?

"as the RV shape is a copyrighted Jackson shape"-wouldn't that be a patent, not a copyright?

[edit] Name

The article states his name as Markku Uula Aleksi Laiho. Is there a proof for that? Everybody could come up with any names. I will delete his "full name" if nobody can prove that it's his full name (i.e. link) because I think that this is wrong information.

     "Alexi "Wildchild" Laiho (Markku Uula Aleksi Laiho)" and "Birth name Markko Uula Aleksi Laiho". Is it Markku or Markko? 
     If this even has a source then that should be corrected. I'd do it myself but I have no idea where to find out which is right.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.217.17.90 (talk) 07:52, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

Could one of these photo's from the commons be used in the infobox?

I think they probably could. Tobz1000 (talk) 14:55, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia

The remaining trivia is not very important and could be totally removed from his profile. Does anybody agree?Abtreibung (talk) 21:06, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
