Brian Hugh Warner (born January 5, 1969), better known by his stage name Marilyn Manson, is an American musician and artist known for his outrageous stage persona and image as the lead singer of the eponymous band. His stage name was formed from the names Marilyn Monroe and Charles Manson, showing what Marilyn Manson considered the ultimate and most disturbing dualism of American culture.

Manson was born in Canton, Ohio to Barb Wyer and Hugh Warner. His father was a Catholic and his mother Episcopalian, and Marilyn Manson was raised in his mother's religion attending Heritage Christian School. In 1990, Warner was a college student attending Broward Community College working toward a journalism degree, and gaining experience in the field by writing music articles for a South Florida lifestyle magazine, 25th Parallel where Marilyn Manson was able to meet 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.


Before forming Marilyn Manson, he was involved with Twiggy Ramirez in two projects: Satan on Fire, a fake Christian death metal where he played bass, and Mrs. Scabtree, where he played drums. He formed Marilyn Manson & the Spooky Kids in Florida in 1989 (the name was shortened to Marilyn Manson in 1992). In the summer of 1993, Marilyn Manson drew the attention of Trent Reznor. Reznor produced their 1994 debut album, Portrait of an American Family and released it on his Nothing label. Marilyn Manson 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 (also produced by Reznor) was an even greater success. Three of Marilyn Manson's albums have been awarded platinum certification and three more have been awarded gold, and Marilyn Manson has seen three of its releases debut in the top ten, including two number-one albums. Manson's first work as a producer was with the band Jack Off Jill. Not only did he help name the band and produce most of the band's early recordings but also played guitar on the song "My Cat" and had the band open most of his South Florida shows. Marilyn Manson later wrote the liner notes to the band's album Humid Teenage Mediocrity, a collection of early JOJ recordings.

Marilyn Manson has appeared as a guest performer with several artists including rapper DMX's album Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood and on Godhead's 2000 Years of Human Error album -- the only album released on Manson's vanity label Posthuman.


In July 2005, Marilyn Manson told Rolling Stone magazine that he was shifting his focus from music to filmmaking - "I just don't think the world is worth putting music into right now. I no longer want to make art that other people--particularly record companies--are turning into a product. I just want to make art."

Marilyn Manson is currently working on his directorial debut, Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll, In the film Marilyn Manson plays the role of Lewis Carroll, author of Alice In Wonderland. Rather than a web-only release, Marilyn Manson decided to give the $4.2 million budget film a conventional cinema release in mid-2007. The film will have an original music soundtrack with previously unreleased songs. Production of the film has been postponed until after the Eat Me, Drink Me tour

Marilyn Manson claimed in a 2004 interview with i-D magazine to have began his career as a watercolor painter in 1999 when he made five-minute concept pieces and sold them to drug dealers. On September 13-14, 2002, his first show, The Golden Age of Grotesque, was held at the Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions Centre. Art in America's Max Henry likened them to the works of a ‘psychiatric patient given materials to use as therapy’ and said his work would never be taken seriously in a fine-art context, "the value was ‘in their celebrity, not the work’. On September 14-15, 2004, Marilyn Manson held a second exhibition on the first night in Paris and the second in Berlin. The show was named ‘Trismegistus’ which was also the title of the centre piece of the exhibit – a large three headed Christ painted onto an antique wood panel.

On October 31, 2006, Marilyn Manson opened his own art gallery, The Celebritarian Corporation Gallery of Fine Art in Los Angeles for which his third exhibition was the inaugural show. From April 2-17, 2007, Marilyn Manson's recent works were on show at the Space 39 Modern & Contemporary in Florida. 40 pieces from this show travel to Germany's Gallery Brigitte Schenk in Cologne to be publicly exhibited from June 28 - July 28, 2007. Small detail, Marilyn Manson has been refused the entrance to the Cologne Cathedral, better known under the German name Kölner Dom when he was in the city to attend the opening night. This was, according to Marilyn Manson due to his make-up. Other soures gave different reasons however.


Marilyn Manson was given the title of "Reverend Manson" by Church of Satan founder, Anton LaVey.

Marilyn Manson and Dita Von Teese, a popular American burlesque artist, model and actress, started dating on Manson's 32nd birthday (January 5, 2001), and Marilyn Manson proposed three years later on 22 March 2004. On 3 December 2005 (court documents say 28 November), the couple were married in a non-denominational ceremony at Gurteen Castle in Kilsheelan, County Tipperary, Ireland, the home of artist, Gottfried Helnwein. The wedding was officiated by surrealist film director and comic book writer Alejandro Jodorowsky. They reportedly exchanged vows in front of approximately 60 guests, including Catherine D'lish, Lisa Marie Presley, Eric Szmanda, Jessicka of Jack Off Jill and Christian Hejnal of Scarling. Guests were invited to participate in skeet shooting, archery and falconry in the days following the wedding. The wedding pictures appeared in the March 2006 edition of Vogue under the heading "The Bride Wore Purple".

On December 30, 2006 Marilyn Manson and Von Teese split after her filing for divorce due to "irreconcilable differences". ET.com and People claimed that Manson was having an extramarital affair with 19-year-old actress Evan Rachel Wood, who is to co-star in his upcoming horror film Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll, and features in the video for his 2007 single, Heart-Shaped Glasses, as well as inspiring the record. The relationship was confirmed by Von Teese in an interview with Britain's Sunday Telegraph, "I get the impression he thinks I was unsupportive. But the truth is I wasn't supportive of his lifestyle, and someone else came along who was." Manson's alcohol abuse and distant behavior were also cited as cause for the split.[18] Manson is reportedly fighting for custody of the couple's three cats. Manson is also linked to Michele Greenberg who is portrayed as "Rachelle" in his book "The Long Hard Road Out of Hell". Prior to his seven-year relationship to von Teese, he was engaged to actress Rose McGowan.
