Marilyn Manson? Whats your opinion. Please cooperate.

Question

OK. Your all know Marilyn Manson correct? The pale guy that had his ribs removed and sings "This is the New S***".

Well what is your thoughts on him? I think he is a bit strange, but brave. How many people have the guts to do what that guy does? Is he insane? Or just doesn't care what people think? Sure, some things he does, doesn't even make sense. but seriously, would you have the guts to be

that rebellious and stand out like that? How many would do that?

Answer 1

he got his ribs removed to suck himself 'cause no one else would.

Answer 2

What a freak.

Answer 3

Marilyn Manson is one of the biggest rip-offs of all time.  Rozz Williams did it ALLLL before MM did and he just took everything that Rozz did and ripped him the eff off.  His entire style and everything.  No, he is not a trend-setter or even REMOTELY original.  If you are curious then just check out Christian Death or look up Roz.  He also severely ripped off Peter Murphy from the Bauhaus.  Please do not make the mistake of giving this guy any kind of credence when his whole shtick was stolen from someone else.

I give MM both thumbs down.

Answer 4

He is the most disgusting, vile human being in existence. His "so called" music ruined my sons life.

Answer 5

Well, from interviews and just listening o the way he talks, he seems to be very articulate and intelligent.  However, it would seem foolish to overlook what messages he could be sending to kids.  This society is so screwed already it is hard to think that manson is even a threat compared to walking into a kb toys in the mall and seeing plastic axes and guns that actually recoil when you shoot them, women figurines with double d b*****s, basically humanity as a collective whole is extremely pathetic.

Answer 6

The genre of music he does is not something I would listen to (I like classic rock), but I do know that people who like that genre really enjoy him! So, I suppose he's a talented artist from what people tell me. He wouldn't be rich and famous if he didn't have some talent. I also don't really like shock art which is what his whole career is about. Anyway, I've seen some interviews with him and he seems very intelligent and witty. As far as him being brave, sure! I certainly would not have the guts to put my life-style out there if it were as unconventional as his! Then again, he is rich enough to do so. I don't think he's insane in the least, judging from the interviews I've seen. Like I said, I think he's very smart. He knows what sells and he does an excellent job of marketing himself.  

Answer 7

Hes too weird...even his looks....but we cant know whats in his head..

Answer 8

He's pathetic, neurotic, grotesque and untalented.. Next?

Answer 9

first i would like to say thank you very much for putting your opinions up. I believe he is so wonderful and a great roll model for our youth. (yes bluewhisper, he is an INSPIRATION to the youth) he teaches youth to be themselves and to let others be themselves. and yeah he did get married to Dita (beautiful woman) but she divorced him because Marilyn was cheating on her with Evan Rachel Wood (also a beautiful woman) even though he was a cheater i believe he is a wonderful man and he helps to teach as you said independence and he is wonderful for helping people connect.
