Marilyn Manson's old keyboard buddy, Madonna Wayne Gacy, recently hit the gaunt cradle robber and former rock star with a breach-of-contract lawsuit, complaining that Manson had been skimming profits rightly owed to the band to buy stuff that makes Elephant Man-era Michael Jackson look like a quaint collector of roadside folk art:
The suit further alleges Manson took assets belonging to the rest of the band (money generated through touring, and album and merchandise sales) to purchase Nazi paraphernalia, African masks made of human skin and the full skeleton of a 4-year-old Chinese girl, all of which he has on display in his mansion at Chatsworth, California mansion."
Is this what happens when an overgrown teenage boy who never lost his unfortunate fascination with serial killer chic starts making a lot of money? What catalog does one even start to look in to find masks made of human skin? At least Lars Ulrich just collects large, ugly paintings. Manson denies the allegations of financial impropriety, obviously, but not that he owns all that totally scary stuff, dude.

So...
...you're not a fan of Basquiat, I take it.
Seattle and Vancouver had been parading dead Chinese bodies in their respective "Bodies" museum exhibitions that had seem to run eternally. I wonder if Manson purchased the body doing the push-up or the skateboarding maneuver.
The handler alone for Evan Rachel Wood's live mink stole charges $10 grand a month. No one ever said parody would be cheap, Marilyn.
Madonna Wayne Gacy? Are you fucking kidding me?
And I thought Marilyn Manson was a banal name.
Come on, Marilyn, it used to be about the music. No, wait, that was stupid, too.
Lars Ulrich owns a Basquiat painting? That's way more of a mindfuck than anything "creepy" Manson could ever own.
