‘God Of Slap’ - Marilyn Manson Cosmetics Launched

added 13 October 2005 at 16.17

Now, one would think that black lipstick is black lipstick. There would be little need for different shades, brands and so on. However, self-proclaimed God Of F**k Marilyn Manson has announced he’s moving into cosmetics with a new lipstick range. No, really…

Manson has claimed he is currently in talks with a "major cosmetics company" about launching the range and hopes to have the product in the shops by the end of the year.

As well as lipstick, Manson has revealed he’s also looking into his own perfume, powder and foundation, Women's Wear Daily reports. And, trust us, they would know…

Apparently the reason for the diversification is in no way commercial, and entirely artistic. With Manson explaining he'd been "inspired by the Dali-Schiaparelli collaborations".

We assume he’s making reference to the creative teaming of an artist and a fashion designer, rather than drawing inspiration for his scent from a phallus-obsessed nutjob famed for pictures of a melting clock. Which probably wouldn’t smell too great as a scent.
