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.
