Its going to be a busy 2007 for him, working on the new album, his first film, and dating Evan Rachel Wood. He ended his marriage with Dita Von Teese. :'(

I wonder how long a relationship with a 19 year old girl is going to last. The man is 39.

[oscillations.]

I find their relationship enthralling.

[tortuga]

He's dated some many hot girls. Remember Rose McGowen? I guess its proof that they like him for his intelligent personality. Some girls say he's hot and I'm sorry, I just don't see it.

[oscillations.]

He isn't hot to me but I guess I can see the appeal to some people. And, yes, Rose is a tall glass of water.

Without all the scary makeup and stuff, Marilyn Manson looks okay.

Marilyn Manson steps out in London with his "twin," new girlfriend Evan Rachel Wood, on Thursday. Despite their 19-year age difference, Manson, 38, told France's Le Parisien newspaper "that's not a problem for me. She likes the same things as me. She understands I like to get up when night falls and go to sleep at dawn."

Devils, Vampires Rub Elbows On Manson Album

April 24, 2007, 2:25 PM ET
Jonathan Cohen, N.Y.

Marilyn Manson's obsession with the dark recesses of human behavior is at the forefront of his new album, "Eat Me, Drink Me," due June 5 via Interscope. The 11-track set is led by "If I Was Your Vampire," which can be sampled from Manson's MySpace.com page.

"Eat Me, Drink Me," which was primarily recorded by Manson with guitarist/bassist Tim Skold, comes in the wake of the artist's high-profile divorce from model Dita Von Teese. Throughout, Manson is at turns angry ("The Red Carpet Grave," where he sings, "I can't turn my back on you when you walk away") and reflective ("They Said Hell's Not Hot," featuring the lyric "I kill myself in small amounts / In each relationship it's not about love / just another funeral and just another girl left in tears").

A number of tracks have a swagger often buried in the noisier elements of Manson's recordings. "Just a Car Crash Away" builds slowly to an impassioned ending, while "Heart Shaped Glasses" is a jumpy rocker with a hint of Gang Of Four-style post-punk guitar work. Vestiges of his old style crop up on "Are You the Rabbit?," which has the album's dirtiest industrial groove.

Manson and his band, which will include former Prodigy member Rob Halliday on bass, will hit the road beginning May 26 at the Pink Pop festival in Landgraaf, Holland. Dates are on tap through early July; North American shows have yet to be announced.

In addition, work continues on the film "Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll," in which Manson will star as the "Alice in Wonderland" author and also direct.

Marilyn Manson in video controversy
Did he have real sex in promo?
16.May.07 4:00pm

Marilyn Manson has become caught in a controversy over his video for new single 'Heart-Shaped Glasses (When The Heart Guides The Hand)'.

The controversial star has yet confirm or deny the rumours that he is having real sex with real life girlfriend Rachel Even Wood in the clip.

A source told Radar magazine that the couple didn't fake the scene. Manson said: "Let's just say there were some conservative people involved (with the video) that got a little upset about things that were taking place, and there's been rumours back and forth, but I will not confirm or deny them."

The sex scene depicts Manson and Wood violently kissing while writhing around locked in a passionate embrace, making purposeful love. In another scene Wood seductively massages her nether regions while watching Manson's onstage performance.

The singer told MTV: "Anyone who is lazy or, I guess, has the lack of depth to expect (a video from me) to be shocking and then say it's not shocking, is essentially the same as saying your partner is bad in bed when you're a masturbator...I think it's one of those 'buyer beware' situations. You can't be mad at me when you know what you're asking for."

Manson's Failed Marriage `Destroyed' Him

NEW YORK (AP) -- Marilyn Manson says he was devastated over the breakup of his marriage to model and burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese.

"I was completely destroyed. I had no soul left," the 38-year-old glitzy goth rocker says in Spin magazine's June issue, on newsstands May 29. "I define myself as a person, a human, an artist, as someone who makes things - writing, painting, music - and I couldn't do anything."

Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, married Von Teese in November 2005. She filed for divorce last December.

"She said she had tolerated the lifestyle because she hoped I would change and threatened to leave if I didn't," Manson says.

"I was sleeping on the couch in my own home. I was no longer supposed to be a rock star. I was someone who had to be apologized for. I wasn't prepared to be alone. I came out of this naked, a featherless bird."

His outlook changed when his friendship with 19-year-old actress Evan Rachel Wood turned romantic. He tells the magazine he was impressed when she said she would die for him.

"It might sound strange, but this made me want to live," he says.

Wood, whose screen credits include "Thirteen" and "Running With Scissors," was quoted in the story as saying, "Boys in eye makeup are the greatest thing ever - that whole androgynous thing."

Manson's new album, "Eat Me, Drink Me," is slated for release June 5.

Marilyn Manson, Eat Me, Drink Me



Some dismiss Marilyn Manson as a stilts-over-substance shock-rocker who believes that painting pictures of Hitler as a trannie makes him an artiste. OK, the paintings aren't much better than Doherty's blood art, but actually, despite appearances, Manson's made some of the most vitalic rock music of recent times ('Disposable Teens', 'The Nobodies') and let his musical obsessions, such as his Bowie fixation, polish his metal. This album sees him rising from the hordes of spider-black hoodies, becoming a musical force beyond the Download ticket-holders. Not that he's less sinister - cuts like 'Putting Holes In Happiness' bubble with as much bloody imagery of knives on hearts and gothic rabbits (the album is influenced by Lewis Carroll's Alice In Wonderland) as classic rock influences. Eat him, drink him, but make sure you listen to him too.

Marilyn Manson, Eat Me, Drink Me

* * 1/2 (out of four) GOTH REPAST

Once a festering threat to America's youth culture, the cross-dressing, bile-spewing spawn of Alice Cooper is now about as menacing as Uncle Fester. But Manson can still crank out wickedly fun Goth-glam dirges, and between the ponderous passages on his sixth studio album, he delivers a tidy schlockfest of blood, mutilation, violence and macabre drama, some surprisingly accessible (Heart-Shaped Glasses) and some simply silly (Just a Car Crash Away).

[tortuga]

I've only listened to the album two times, but I like it.
