20 Things Only Marilyn Manson Fans Will Understand

5. His Parents Are Proud Of Him

https://youtu.be/q0aOsx8ANVk As his fans, we're totally proud of Manson. He's branched out to acting and painting, he's never quit the business, and he's rocking the aging goth look pretty well. We're in pretty good company, considering that his family remains some of his most staunch supporters. We were all totally bummed when his mother Barb died in 2014 after suffering from dementia for many years. Manson wrote to her publically on social media, stating that "Mother, to the first and greatest believer in me...I hope I see you again someday." Yes, you probably need a tissue right now. Then there's his father Hugh. From all accounts that Manson shared in his book, his dad loves the rock star lifestyle almost as much as his son. While matching family portraits might mortify most, Manson and Hugh appeared in matching makeup this year in Paper Magazine, and it was just about the sweetest thing we ever saw.
