15 Insanely Weird Moments That Made You Love Marilyn Manson

by Brian Wilson

1. Realising He's Sensitive, Eloquent And Intelligent

This entry is a testament to how quick we are as a society to judge based on appearance. For many people, finding out Manson is actually a sensitive, well-spoken and intelligent person is the weirdest moment of them all.

Over the years Manson has been hounded and victimized by the media, by parents and by people who refuse to look beyond the surface. Though not everything Manson does or has done is to be celebrated, it's also true that he spreads messages of positivity and empowerment through his music, something that many people find difficult to comprehend. You've only got to take a look at his interview in Michael Moore's documentary Bowling For Columbine to see that it's true. Thanks, Marilyn - keep being weird. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiaxzBlFgmQ
