Shock rocker Marilyn Manson married his longtime girlfriend Saturday in Ireland, People magazine reported on its Web site.
Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, married 33-year-old Heather Sweet in front of about 60 guests at Castle Gurteen, the home of a friend in Kilsheelan, County Tipperary, the magazine reported.
Sweet is a burlesque dancer who uses the stage name Dita Von Teese. They have been dating for four years and Manson proposed at their Los Angeles home in March 2004, People reported.
It was the first marriage for both.
Manson, 36, wore a black silk taffeta tuxedo and Von Teese was in royal purple silk taffeta with a corset. They were married in a non-denominational ceremony conducted by underground filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky, a friend of Manson, the magazine reported. (AP)

Poor Alejandro.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Monday, 5 December 2005 23:39 (twenty years ago)

I doubt it. Esp. since it's not like Manson is getting much work these days.

― detoxyDancer (sexyDancer), Monday, 5 December 2005 23:47 (twenty years ago)

I wonder how much he charges and if he's willing to fly to LA.

Have him perform the ceremony as the guy-with-his-mother's-arms from Santa Sangre. Also: have him shave the heads of the wedding couple.

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Monday, 5 December 2005 23:54 (twenty years ago)

one year passes...

January 5, 2007 -- SHOCK-rocker Marilyn Manson is about to get one of the biggest shocks of his bizarre life - his stunning stripper-wife, Dita Von Teese, is dumping him after only a year of marriage.
Page Six has learned that the pasty-faced Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, will be served with divorce papers today at a Los Angeles recording studio where he's working on his next album, with Von Teese citing "irreconcilable differences" in giving him the boot.
Sources say the raven-haired bombshell filed for the split right before Christmas, but Manson has been unaware of it because she couldn't get in touch with him.
"He's not been responsive," a friend said. "She loved him so much, but he has too many demons. He can't even communicate with her at this point. She tried to tell him she was divorcing him, but she can't even get him on the phone. She moved out of the house and he hasn't even noticed."
Friends say Manson had been boozing heavily last year, much to Von Teese's dismay, but she'd desperately tried to hold on. "She really tried to make this work," the friend said.
A rep for the Michigan-born beauty, who is the spokesmodel for MAC makeup's Viva Glam lipstick and lip gloss line, declined to comment. But John Demsey, group president of Estée Lauder, told us: "We're really sad to hear this. Dita has been the most extraordinary MAC spokeswoman. She's the ultimate professional - a glamour girl like there used to be in the '30s and '40s."
Von Teese's pals say they are squarely on her side. "Well, at least now she won't have to share her makeup," one quipped.
It's not known yet whether Von Teese plans to ask for custody of the couple's two cats, Lily and Aleister, and dachshunds, Greta and Eva.
Manson and Von Teese, an accomplished burlesque performer and Playboy model, tied the knot in December 2005 after a seven-year courtship. The goth-style ceremony was held in an ancient castle in Tipperary, Ireland, with cult film director Alejandro Jodorowsky officiating.

First Brad and Jennifer, now this. Is there any hope for the rest of us?

"...a glamour girl like there used to be in the '30s and '40s."

Nobody actually thinks this, right? That's just her publicists' angle?

i measure a woman's hotness by how hard my wife pinches or hits me when she is on tv or in a magazine we are looking at; by that measure DVT ranks pretty high

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 5 January 2007 20:28 (nineteen years ago)

There's never been a hotter woman whose eyes are clearly too small for her head.

their couplings can't be anything other than truly grotesque

Looks like a guy who likes a gin or two.

Before breakfast.

― jimn (jimnaseum), Friday, 5 January 2007 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

xpost. The euphemism "couplings" is also pretty grotesque.

― jimn (jimnaseum), Friday, 5 January 2007 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

perhaps you would prefer "making the goth with two backs"

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 5 January 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

Observing it would be hurlesque. ROFLZ.

― jimn (jimnaseum), Friday, 5 January 2007 21:37 (nineteen years ago)

"making the goth with two backs"

Funniest line of the day

Castro theater, SF

January 19-20
El Topo
F: 7p, 9:30p; Sa: (2p), 4:30p, 7p, 9:30p
Directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky; Cast: Alejandro Jodorowsky, Brontis Jodorowsky, Jose Legarreta, Alfonso Arau, Jose Luis Fernandez; 1970, 125 mins In Spanish with English subtitles

Through the desert, a mysterious gunslinger goes on a quest to become the best gunfighter. On this mystical journey, he encounters one increasingly bizarre character after another. Though conceived to pay homage to various Italian westerns, it can best be described as Fellini directing a Catholic western while soaring high on LSD. There’s never been a western more surrealistic and apocalyptic.

January 21-22
The Holy Mountain
Su: (2p), 4:30p, 7p, 9:30p; M: 7p, 9:30p
Directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky; Cast: Alejandro Jodorowsky, Horacio Salinas, Zamira Saunders; 1973, 114 mins, In English and Spanish with English subtitles ‘SCOPE, NEW 35MM PRINT!

“Jodorowsky’s most daring film, and well as THE celluloid mind-roaster of all time! An epic hallucination crawling with wall-to-wall mega-weirdness, in which Christ, The White Master, and a pack of symbolic thieves (each named after a planet, and each representing a different ill of society) link up to raid The Holy Mountain and steal its secrets...Outrageous, pretentious, unbelievable, and unforgettable. There’ll never be another film remotely like it!”—Shock Cinema Magazine

wowee

― Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 23:11 (nineteen years ago)

sweet - I own both but it would be kinda nice to see Holy Mountain on a big screen

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 23:12 (nineteen years ago)

haha i misread this as alejandro escovedo for a second..that would be sweet.

El Topo and Holy Mountain are both coming to DVD in the next few months... ABCKO and Jodorowsky finally made up, hence the screenings. No word on who's releasing the DVDs- Criterion's been the name mentioned most often, but they haven't said anything. Fantoma is maybe in the running, but if Allen Klein is asking for more money than Criterion can pony up, what US boutique label could?
