Slash is winning in Charlie Sheen's book.

The Anger Management star turned up to pay tribute to his longtime friend and former Guns N' Roses axe man, who was honored today with the 2,473rd star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.

Sheen couldn't resist taking a shot at Slash's estranged bandmate, Axl Rose.

"You know, it's quite fitting, I think, that Slash is getting a star on the very street that Axl Rose will one day be sleeping on," the actor cracked to fans gathered in front of the Hard Rock Café on Hollywood Boulevard.

Other speakers on hand included legendary movie producer Robert Evans, whose 2002 documentary on his life in Tinseltown, The Kid Stays in the Picture, included a song by the rocker.

The 46-year-old Slash, real name Saul Hudson, attended the induction ceremony with his wife and two kids. Afterward, he performed an acoustic set for those in attendance.
