Marilyn Manson is a misunderstood artist who was born Brian Hugh Warner in Canton, Ohio January 5th, 1969 with mother Barb Wyer and Hugh Warner. His father was a Catholic and mother Episcopalian. He was raised in his mother's religion, attending Heritage Christian School, though he later transferred out, graduating from Cardinal Gibbons High School in 1987. In 1990, Warner was a college student attending Broward Community College. He was working toward a journalism degree, and gaining experience in the field by writing music articles for a South Florida lifestyle magazine, 25th Parallel when he met several of the musicians to whom his own band would later be compared, including My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult and Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails. Warner formed Marilyn Manson & the Spooky Kids in Florida in 1989 (the name was shortened to Marilyn Manson in 1992). While with The Spooky Kids, he was involved with Jeordie White (also known as Twiggy Ramirez) and Stephen Gregory Bier Jr. (also known as Madonna Wayne Gacy) in two side-projects: Satan on Fire, a faux-Christian death metal ensemble where he played bass, and drums in Mrs. Scabtree, a collaborative band formed with White and then girlfriend Jessicka (vocalist with the band Jack Off Jill)as a way to combat contractual agreements that prohibited Marilyn Manson from playing in certain clubs. In the summer of 1993, the band drew the attention of Trent Reznor. Reznor produced their 1994 debut album, Portrait of an American Family and released it on his Nothing Records label. The band began to develop a cult following, which grew larger with the release of Smells Like Children in 1995. That EP yielded the band's first big MTV hit with "Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)", a cover of the 1983 Eurythmics hit. Antichrist Superstar (co-produced by Trent Reznor) was an even greater success. Three of the band's albums have been awarded platinum certification, three more gold, and the band has seen three of its releases debut in the top ten, including two number-one albums. Warner first worked as a producer with the band Jack Off Jill. He helped name the band and produce most of the band's early recordings, and also played guitar on the song "My Cat" and had the band open most of his South Florida shows. Warner later wrote the liner notes to the band's album Humid Teenage Mediocrity 1992-1995, a collection of early Jack Off Jill recordings. His stage name was formed from the names of actress Marilyn Monroe and convicted murderer Charles Manson.12 In 2004, the band's hit "mOBSCENE" was nominated for a Grammy Award for "Best Metal Performance". Warner made an appearance in the video game Area 51 as a Grey Alien named Edgar. His song "Cruci-Fiction In Space" is featured in a commercial for The Darkness. His likeness is also featured on the Celebrity Deathmatch video game for which he recorded a song for the soundtrack (2003). The song "Use your fist and not your mouth" was the credits score of the game Cold Fear as well as Spawn: Armageddon. According to his autobiography, Warner is six feet and three inches tall. Warner was offered the title of "Reverend Manson" by Church of Satan founder Anton Lavey and holds it as an honorary title, as described in his autobiography. He had been a long time fan of Dita Von Teese, and was a member of her website. They first met when he asked her to dance in one of his music videos. Though she was unable to, the two kept in contact. On his 32nd birthday, she arrived with a bottle of absinthe, and they became a couple. He proposed on March 22, 2004 and gave her a 1930s-era, 7-carat, European round-cut diamond engagement ring. On November 28, 2005, they were married in a private, non-denominational ceremony in their home. A larger ceremony was held on December 3 at Gurteen Castle in Kilsheelan (County Tipperary), Ireland, the home of their friend, Gottfried Helnwein.
He now is dating 19-year-old actress Evan Rachel Wood who starred in Manson's recent hit single, "Heart-Shaped Glasses (When The Heart Guides The Hand)" and is also rumored to appear in Manson's upcoming film "Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll".

Some kid: ew, Marylin Mansin. He worships the devil u know!
Manson fan: Where did you hear that?
Some kid: i read he is a reverend in The Church of Satan.
Manson fan: You idiot, it doesn't mean that Marilyn Manson Satanist. Reverends in The Church of Satan are revered unlike in Catholic churches where it means they dedicate their life to the religion. Manson is actually an Atheist. The title Reverend to The Church of Satan was just given as an honorary title to him by the founder, Anton Szandor LaVey.
Some kid: o.. well he is still creepy. i dont like people who r different.

Marilyn Manson.
Marilyn Manson's band was originally called Marilyn Manson And The Spooky Kids, but shortly after the band was formed, the name was shortened to Marilyn Manson (the lead singer's name, obviously).
Marilyn Manson himself has never bitten the head of a defenceless animal nor had fake breast implants nor removed his ribs in order to give himself oral sex. On the contrary to what pathetic sociopath idiots think, Marilyn Manson does not have man boobs- he was cursed from the day he was born to be tall and terribly thin (something which he doesn't mind.)
He isn't gay (he is married to star female stripper, Dita Von Teese) and yet has no problem what-so-ever about gay people, gay sex or touching men-- wanna know why? It's because he isn't an idiot. He can accept other people.
His music does not just have shock value. I myself downloaded some of his music to find out who the hell Marilyn Manson was, before I had seen him and his band and back when I though he was a woman (/Marilyn/). It amazed me, and because of my love for his work I looked up more about him.
He isn't a Satanist (he doesn't believe in a God) yet is against Christianity. He isn't against Christianity because he is a 'Goth' (he isn't, by the way)but because his gained experiences have left him with some intelligence. If you don't believe me, buy his autobiography.

A pill to make you dumb,

Won't save her from herself..." -- Coma White

You took the angel away,
I killed myself to make everybody pay..." -- Coma Black

Marilyn Manson:
An extremely underrated and misjudged man.
Blamed for problems having absolutely nothing to do with him by ignorant fuck-ups who bitch about whoever doesn't fit within their social standards.
Questionable parents claim he is the reason their child becomes a heroin addicted failure, when clearly the parenting skills of said parents need to be thoroughly explained and moderated.
Most people who don't spend 5 minutes worth shit of research to find that he does not in fact sacrifice animals, worship the devil, have his ribs removed to suck himself off, or any other extreme fairy tales people have gotten away with starting.
Marilyn Manson (Brian Hugh Warner) plays many instruments, sings, writes, acts, and paints. He is incredibly talented and naturally gifted. His hard work shows and I can easily say is the most genius man I have ever had the pleasure of having as a role model. No one has influenced me in such a powerful, positive way.
He is a beautiful creature that this shit-hole of a world doesn't deserve to have. He is my last hope that humanity isn't a complete waste.

Person-Wow! This is a good song? Who is it by?
Me-Marilyn Manson.
Person-(Thinking: I will now pretend his music is horrible because there are rumors about him and people may not like me for listening to him. Ughhh, no one will like me and think I'm so totally un-cool. Although, I secretly like him.)

One may say that Brian Warner (Marilyn Manson, for those who don't know) is some 'satanic goth' and whatnot. What people don't realize is that he...isn't. Honestly? This man is blamed for odd nuances and criminal acts (Columbine, anyone?) merely because it's easy for the media to point fingers...just because his ways aren't exactly 'politically correct'...or however one may explain it.
Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids (now shortened to 'Marilyn Manson') is a 'shock-rock' band that started in the 80's. So, those who think he's 'metal' or 'emo'..you're wrong..and you fail at life.
Those obscene rumors like the whole 'breast implants' thing..and the 'ribs removed' thing...they aren't true. If you watch any of his interviews, you'd know that he finds these things funny...but they aren't true. The whole 'breast' thing was for a music video...and they weren't real...and come on, the whole 'suck my own dick' thing was a joke.

Mindless Idiot: oh my god, Marilyn Manson is such a freak!
Me: ...do you happen to have any legit reasoning behind that opinion?
Mindless Idiot: I don't even know if it's a guy or a girl..and he has two different color eyes!
Me: First off, if you knew anything..you'd know that Manson is a guy and that 'Marilyn Manson' is not his real name. And there's significance behind those contacts.
Mindless Idiot: He's still a freak! He removed two of his ribs so he could suck his own dick...and he throws live puppies in the audience at his shows and tells people to kill them!
Me: I feel sorry for you...the media is basically brainwashing you.
Mindless Idiot: What?
Me: ...you have no opinion of your own. You lose.

Quote
'I'm becoming what I used to be afraid of. When the whole world wants to destroy you, everyday is your last day and every performance is your final one. The Antichrist is not just me, or just one person. it's all of us, a collective state of mind that America needs to have awakened in them. I want to wake it in them. That's the purpose of this tour, maybe even my life, to make Americans realize they don't have to believe in something just because they've been told it all their lives. You can't have someone who's never had sex or drugs telling you it's wrong. Only through experience can you determine your own morality. Humanity isn't about constantly having to seek forgivness for being human; humanity is leading a guiltless existance as an individual. That is Armageddon, because, to Christianity, if you forsake God and believe in yourself, the world is over.'

a very brilliant, artistic, beautiful man who is punished for not being like everyone else... why? i dont know. maybe because everyone who thinks he is a gay satan worshipper needs to get their facts straight before judging him. if you dont like him, fine. if you dont like his music, fine. just know he is an independent MAN and deserves everything in this world.
i say:god marilyn manson is so awesome!
the fat christian says: eeew! he is a gay man and he loves satan!
