Shirley Manson Would Rather Piss You Off Than Be Pissed On


I don’t want to give too much away, but I will say that it’s nice to see that the producers of the Terminator spin-off show haven’t given up the parent franchise’s commitment to using morphing technology at any cost. Hands up if, like me, you’re hoping that this cameo on last night’s episode of the show means that there will be a Garbage version of “You Could Be Mine” sooner, rather than later. [YouTube]

    Except for the whole murder part, that's pretty much how I fantasize about Shirley Manson.


    Also...anyone think her role on the show could become something similar to this?

    She was pretty much my dream woman circa '96. Her or Justine Frischman. So this week has been an Idolator bonanza of YouTube clips featuring my late high school rock crushes. Thanks Maura!

    @Audif Jackson Winters III: Shirley is still my dream woman! (Squeal!)

    I seem to recall "When I Grow Up" (off Version 2.0) having a reference to "golden showers."

    I thought she was great on the Sarah Connor Chronicles, but it makes me sad that she's not able to release her solo album because of record company stupidity.

  • Maura Johnston

    A friend of mine got mad at me for not having an "Only Happy When It Rains" reference in here.

  • Barry White Stripes, Office LW

    @Maura Johnston: Don't forget to tip your waitress folks!

    Does anybody remember the anecdote she dropped in several interviews when Garbage first came out that she had once peed in a boyfriend's belly button? It was part of the whole 'femme fatale' thing. Probably.
