Because Marilyn's Desperate Attention-Pleas Go Well In Threes

While you were busy not being shocked by Manson's bloodshower sex scene with barely legal girlfriend Evan Rachel Wood:

  1. "Marilyn Manson wants to break the world record for sharing a bath with snakes." A Marilynsider said "[Manson] is desperate to get into the famous book..." We're assuming that quote referred to the Guiness Book, we're certain that quote could've stopped at "desperate."
  2. Marilyn Manson's Eat Me Drink Me stageshow includes a robot replica of his girlfriend Evan, which "brings me absinthe onstage like any wonderful girlfriend should" before he slices its head off onstage. Actually this is the most shocking of all! Not for robotic decapitation so much as the totally missed opportunity to plug Mansinthe. You're slipping, Brian Warner.
  3. Manson sued for squandering band money on "sick and disturbing" purchases. According to the complaint the items included a child's skeleton, a mask made of human skin, and a collection of Nazi memorabilia. No joke on this one. The only thing less humorous than Nazis is Marilyn Manson trying to be one for shock value.

You guys are so full of it. You don't even know what Manson is all about and you should just shut your mouths and stop talking crap!

You all are so ignorant, it's actually quite comical. If any of you had any idea, the media plays up things 10x the size they really are. Sure Manson bought all of these things, but they have some significant value to him, as do all of YOUR belongings. So shut the fuck up and sit back down. You all are worthless to this world and can't make nearly as much money as Manson can, even if all of you sold your bodies and souls. So don't be jealous that he can afford the things he wants and you can't.Suffer.

He should just give up the shock-shtick and dress up as an old Jewish woman. That would fit him a lot better... because he looks like an old Jewish woman.

Godwin's law, Manson? Welcome to (further) irrelevancy.

Manson and Trent Reznor ought to get married and then hang themselves.

The best thing about the article is how well it corresponds with the picture of Marilyn looking like a child in school who has just been sent to see the principal.
He should wash off that spider gum tat, too

A child skeleton!? That's weak. Everyone knows you can't shock people unless you buy an actual kid.

Maybe he just doesn't want to be known for music anymore, or whatever he called his old job.

i think he's more concerned at this point with being an eccentric human being. he's definitely that, plus, he's just an intelligent person. he's pretty much the real edward scissorhands...anyway, that's what he probably wants, just to be known as a very eccentric personality. good for him, we need more people to be weirder.

this guy both blows and sucks, hard.

he puts every woman who is stupid enough to let him touch her in his videos - Rose McGowan, Dita, now this jail-bait. He is the goth version of J-Lo.

I doubt even 14 y.o. self-harmers listen to this goon any more, his last album crashed and burned and I'm pretty sure he had a film in the pipeline about Alice In Wonderland, that has mysteriously been dropped.

Let's hear no more about him and rob him off the air of publicity, which is what he SO desparately wants.

Also, leave off Trent Reznor, he doesn't deserve to have his name soiled by being mentioned in the same sentence as this tool.

i think its funny how ignorant people can be without looking into the person. say what you want and think what you may but its a lot more controversal then just a dude dressing funky. this is his style and you know what you all can take your hollister t-shirts and abercrombie and fitch jeans and shove them in unspeakable places. how do you have the right to judge another persons way of thinking when none of you can even think for yourselves. why has this world turned into a big clash of over thinking assholes and ignorant preps. i hate anyone that judges without experience and knowledge and that being not just from what is strewn through news and posted on tv, or what you google in your browser. so why doesnt every person that thinks unrelatable and rudely towards Brian take a chance wih being yourself and not being a total asshole to the people you look at.

He is the most beautiful person that has ever existed in every signle way. He's intelligent, eccentric, and beyond attractive. There's no need to explain how ignorant people who dislike him merely for his persona are. Especially that nut who hates poor old Jewish ladies. You look funny with your foot stuffed down your throat Juano.

I find it hilarious that you idiots think your opinion matters to a man approximately 100 times wealthier than you. So he buys extravagant shit? Guess why...because he's rich. Why don't you do the same thing. Because you're not.

Get over it, jealousfags.
