Marilyn Manson
What do you as a human think about Marilyn Manson? Why would someone want to use the name and of a mass murder together with a known Hollywood blond? What does his <!--WORD2URL-01--><!--END WORD2URL-01-->music<!--WORD2URL-02--><!--END WORD2URL-02--> induce you to be / do / feel? In one interview he admitted that his look is purely entertainment, but do you think it is taking it too far?
Personally I cannot stand him. I do not like his music, how he looks, what he stands for, his disregard for sacred emblems held special by others and so on. I believe one can be an entertainer without going overboard and he is far from overboard - he is already drowning in the ocean.
If I'm talking only about his music, I would say he is OK ... not too outstanding, but OK. As for the looks and the behavior, well surely he's out "in the ocean". He does it for the money. I mean this is all a "stunt" probably made up by that guy - for a period I wasn't even sure of his sexe - but improved/encouraged by his managers. If he would have dressed up in a decent manner, probably he wouldn't have sold half his records. He wants to shock the audience and he does it impressively.
I actually like Marilyn Manson he's a very intelligent and clever man and so are allot of his lyrics, as for the name I think it's just to grab you're attention although I can't condone the glorification of serial killers plenty of other people have done that by writing books and making films about them! as for the image it's not to different to Alice cooper, David Bowie or anyone like that, the fact is everyone loves a bad guy going right back to Elvis who people thought was the Devil incarnate because he gyrated his hips! Has anyone seen bowling for columbine/ Marilyn Manson actually made the most sense of anyone in that film, him and Matt Stone who writes South park!

Shock rock singer Marilyn Manson has been accused of squandering his band's profit on a child's skeleton and masks made of human skin. Keyboardist Stephen "Pogo" Bier filed a breach of contract lawsuit in August in which he accused Manson of taking cash belonging to the rest of the band to pay for the "sick and disturbing" purchases. His lawyer Keith Fink has now filed additional papers adding to a list of artefacts bought by the goth singer- many of which are illegal in the US. As well as the skeleton and masks, Manson is said to have bought a range of stuffed animals, including a grizzly bear and two baboons. He is also accused of using band funds to pay for a collection of Nazi memorabilia. |
His height is 6'3", which is considerably tall for a Caucasian American male, and mentioned briefly by Marilyn Manson in his autobiographical work, The Long Hard Road Out of Hell, as well as by him in interviews, wherein he usually credits his height to an abnormality caused at birth by his father Hugh's exposure to Agent Orange during the Vietnam War.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Marilyn Manson will start the new year as a single man. The goth rocker's marriage to model and burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese officially ended Thursday, and the two were "restored to the status of single persons," according to a judgment filed in Superior Court. Von Teese, whose real name is Heather Sweet, and Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, have entered a marital settlement, but terms of the agreement were not disclosed for privacy reasons, court papers said. Von Teese filed divorce papers nearly a year ago, citing irreconcilable differences for the split. The pair married in November 2005. Manson later told Spin magazine he was devastated over the breakup. Manson, 38, is now dating actress Evan Rachel Wood, the 20-year-old star of "Thirteen" and "Across the Universe." |
