Marilyn Manson has been sent a letter from serial killer Charles Manson. The 'Disposable Teens' artist used Manson's surname as part of his stage name, along with Marilyn Monroe. The practice was also used by other members of his band, including Twiggy Ramirez, Ginger Fish and Madonna Wayne Gacy. The postcard from Manson was leaked on Loudwire, and contains strange, threatening remarks made to the singer. Charles Manson wrote: "To Marilyn Manson, It's taken me a long time to get there from where I could touch M. Manson. Now I got a card to play - you may look into my non-profit, Atwa, and give Manson what you think he's got coming for Air, Trees, Water, and you (sic). "Or I will pay Manson what you think Manson got coming - the music has make Manson into Abraxas Devil, and I'm Sure you would want some of what (more...

Ladies, stop your hysterical sobbing! Stop ripping down your Marilyn Manson posters and setting fire to your Antichrist Superstar t-shirt! Despite what your Google Alert for “Marilyn Manson engaged” might have found this morning, the shock rocker is still blissfully unattached. Life & Style first reported that Manson and heavily eye-linered actress/filmmaker Seraphim Ward were to be joined in unholy matrimony after only five weeks of dating. However, according to Manson’s publicist, “Marilyn Manson is not engaged to Seraphim Ward. He has never met her.” See, so there is still a chance for you two to end up together! Now let’s just calm down, and redraw those pentagrams on your bedroom wall where they belong.
As it turns out, Ward is actually betrothed…to Marilyn’s ex-bandmate Pogo, or as he was known while serving as Manson’s keyboardist, Madonna Wayne Gacy. “I am Not engaged to Marilyn Manson,...

The messy two-year legal entanglement between Marilyn Manson and his former keyboardist Stephen Bier (aka Pogo, previously Madonna Wayne Gacy) has apparently come to a conclusion, according to an announcement made by Manson's reps yesterday. The $20 million breach-of-contract suit brought against Manson by Bier was settled for a mere $175,000 – all of which is apparently going to cover Bier's legal fees. Ouch. Details below... As described in the statement, Bier alleged that Manson blew his entire share of the band's earnings during Bier's tour of duty to buy everything from Nazi artifacts to a $150,000 engagement ring for then-fiancée Dita Von Teese... but according to Manson's attorney, the...

Marilyn Manson wants to hook back up with Dita Von Teese...and Trent Reznor and several other old pals. The shock-rocker's camp has unveiled a witness wish list that includes his ex-wife, his Nine Inch Nails-fronting mentor to testify on his behalf in an upcoming court showdown with estranged keyboardist Stephen Bier. Bier, otherwise known as Madonna Wayne Gacy, sued Manson for more than $20 million last year, claiming Manson siphoned off millions of dollars in band revenue. The funds allegedly paid for drugs, assorted Nazi paraphernalia, the cost of Von Teese's engagement ring and the ex-couple's 2005 wedding, and interior decorating of Manson's mansion, which features a stuffed grizly...

Latest: Marilyn Manson has won a court bid to keep details of his financial affairs private as part of his ongoing legal battle with former bandmate Madonna Wayne Gacy.
Gacy sued the Shock Rocker for breach of contract last August, claiming Manson - real name Brian Warner - poured the group's money into financing his drug habit, his wedding to burlesque model Dita Von Teese and decorating work at his Chatsworth, California home.
Manson then countersued in December, accusing Gacy - real name Stephen Bier - of failing to properly carry out touring, recording and merchandising duties.
Manson's team appealed to Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael L. Stern to grant a confidentiality order to protect his financial records, arguing the privacy motion was needed because Gacy's allegations directly relate to the star's monetary value.
At a court hearing on Friday, Stern granted the order despite protests from Gacy's camp.
And keyboardist Gacy is still fuming over the financial protection, which only allows his attorneys access to Manson's personal accounts.
His lawyer Keith A. Fink says, "He's trying to hide his skeletons from you all."
A hearing is scheduled for 10 April, where Gacy's people are expected to push forward with a petition to depose Manson.
