Former Bandmate Files Suit Against Marilyn Manson
The keyboardist Stephen Bier, also known as Madonna Wayne Gacy, has filed a $20 million lawsuit against the strange looking singer Brian Warner, publicly known as Marilyn Manson. Marilyn Manson’s former keyboardist is accusing the singer of underpaying him, although he has been spending important amounts of money on a strange range of personal objects.

The keyboardist has said that Manson has bought such objects as Nazi memorabilia including some swastika wall tiles, Eva Braun’s handbag and not only, from millions of dollars that were meant to be shared with the band. Manson has allegedly also bough “African masks made of human skin, the full skeleton of a four-year-old Chinese girl, and the full skeleton of a 17th-century male in a wheelchair”.

Anyway, Madonna Wayne Gacy has not filed the suit because he is upset with the singer’s bizarre ways of spending money. He has become mad with the fact that this money should have been in fact shared with him.

"Because of Manson and others' fraudulent conduct, Bier has spent almost two decades working for one of the world's most popular rock bands, that has made millions of dollars in profit, and now had almost nothing to show for it," the suit reads.

The keyboardist has included in Manson’s list of spending his money a movie’s production, a drug-treatment, an art gallery in Los Angeles and the singer’s engaging and wedding to Dita Von Teese. Despite of the fact that Marilyn Manson and his band’s mates signed a partnership agreement in 1993 promising to share the band’s profits, the singer has seemed to profit of millions of dollars on his own.

The band’s former keyboardist has also said that Manson and the band’s business managers have cut off his salary payments and band credit card access, while also refusing to pay the medical bills for work-related problems.

The suit is seeking an unspecified amount in damages, along with any lost funds and bonuses.

The singer has called the keyboardist’s accusations ridiculous, ironically saying in an interview for MTV: "And I would never spend my money on a Chinese girl skeleton. That would be crossing the line. It's a Chinese boy, for the record."
