Marilyn Manson's Marriage is Dead

Posted Jan 5th 2007 1:19PM by TMZ Staff

Just one year after shock rocker Marilyn Manson took burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese to be his gothly wedded bride, Dita wants out.
Manson Divorce Docs
TMZ has obtained divorce papers filed by Von Teese, real name Heather Sweet, in Los Angeles Superior Court. In the documents, Von Teese cites irreconcilable differences as the reason for kicking the King of Goth Rock, real name Brian Warner, to the curb. According to Sweet, the couple called it quits on Christmas Eve. Goth humbug!

While the papers were filed on December 29, a source close to the couple tells Page Six that Manson has been in the dark on the split, because Von Teese can't get in touch with the guy. "She tried to tell him she was divorcing him, but she can't even get him on the phone." Page Six also claims that Manson's alcohol use may have oiled up the breakup.

Manson and Von Teese had a star-studded wedding ceremony in Ireland in December of 2005. Keanu Reeves, Lisa Maria Presley and Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne were among the guests.

The couple has no children.

49. MadSonF and H/Feather....you simply can't go wrong with these two one completed the other, but then came the time when the dispute over the lipstick kinda got too serious..

..and one thing led to another and all of a sudden he had an itch to paint a pic of a blond ..

..and that didn't quiet work out either, as it got sort of dirty too, since more and more it looked like him.....but.... hey she like it....Oh yeah baby and kept asking for more !!!!!!!

Poor Heather just go back to your Feathers !!! now

50. Their marriage was never going to work. Even after Marilyn got engaged to Dita, his videos had a lot of sexy women in skimpy clothes. Also, he seems like he might be bisexual, so maybe getting married was a way to try to prove that he wasn't. However, some it was definetly Dita's fault. First, I think part of the reason she wanted out was because he painted a picture of that Evan Rachel Wood chick. Unless she really knew something was going on between them, she shouldn't have just left. Also, he's been hanging out with Angelina Jolie and Lindsay Lohan. Those two may not be the smartest women out there, but they are obviously beautiful. So is Dita. Beautiful women get jealous of each other. Dita probably was all "Oh, he's hanging out with Angelina, and she's so beautiful and he probably thinks she's more beautiful then me. He must be cheating on me with her, so I'm going to get a divorce."
And finally, what Dita did- filing for divorce on Marilyn's birthday- was truly cruel. Even if he did cheat on her, no one deserves to wake up on their 38th birthday and get divorce papers. Dita is beautiful but cruel and possibly stupid. Marilyn is smart, but has substance abuse problems and was sexually traumatized as a child. It was never going to work.

52. Marilyn Manson is incredibly talented and gorgeous, not to mention rich. Dita von Teese is gorgeous, and probably talented in her own way...i cant admit to knowing. I think they are both old enough to make their own decisions concerning their relationship, and that perhaps others should take the higher path and restrain from judging. Relationships, marriage or otherwise, end. Its a sad fact. We should all just be thankful for our own triumphs in the field, and accepting of the less-than-triumphs. I wish them both luck.
