Marilyn Manson Sued

Posted Aug 4th 2007 3:01PM by TMZ Staff

Nazi paraphernalia, African masks and skeletons, oh my! Freaky-deaky rocker Marilyn Manson is being sued by bandmate Stephen Bier Jr. for allegedly misusing band funds to purchase odd ephemera -- and ex-wife Dita Von Teese's engagement ring.

Among the items Bier claims Manson purchased on his dollar: SS typewriters, swastika wall tiles; the skeleton of a 4-year-old Chinese girl; taxidermy models; and Von Teese's pricey $150,000 rock.

Bier is seeking punitive and compensatory damages, as well as legal fees and lost salary, which, reports People, "Bier believes to be in excess of $20 million."

46. How does a freak like this have any fans?? People have got to be as crazy as he is to listen to his "music"...what a sick, twisted freak he is. I feel sorry for the young girl that hangs with him and for anyone that actually spends money to see or hear him. A disgusting excuse for a human being.

47. Manson's a bloated, wimpy has-been. Deal with it. Guess selling his soul to the Devil couldn't get him a decent looking body.

48. Big deal. I bet if you went down to Wal-Mart right now, they'd have Chinese skeletons for sale. They've got everything else from China there.

51. Grow up.
I used to think he was bizzare and creepy, but he's actually a very intelligent guy, and yes, an astute business man. My son turned me on to his music about 5 years ago when he was 11, but he's past Manson now! His lyrics are cool and he's a talented painter as well.
has anyone ever heard of "an act"? You're giving him the reaction that he's seeking!

52. What did Dita see in him?

53. So Madonna Wayne Gacy is so pissed off that Manson fired him that he is suing. This is effing funny. Considering the fact that MWG never wrote any of the lyrics or music and doesn't actually appear on any of the albums what the hell does he have to sue for? All he was is an untalented keyboardest who played with Manson live. Yeah Manson might be a bit strange, but this guy is the worlds most pitiful loser. Milk it for all you can Stephen Bier for this is the end of your career.

56. MARILYN MANSON SHOT AND KILLED would have been a much more intriguing headline.

57. Did he get to claim her as a dependant on his taxes?

60.
He is into oriental girls,
Why this is a problem?

Also, does it mean that he will be looking for a new drummer?
Or will he replace the ungrateful drummer with the SS typewriters?
