Oh dear.
Who would have thought being a “huge fan” of House would end up with sexual harassment accusations?
Well, that’s what has happened to shock rocker Marilyn Manson.
The accusations come from actress Charlyne Yi, who became angered after she saw a viral video of Manson being extremely rude to the crowd at his show last week Thursday.
She accused Manson of making inappropriate sexual and racial remarks on the set of House, the medical drama starring Hugh Laurie that ended in 2012, reports The Guardian.
On her now deleted Twitter account, Yi wrote:
“Ugh don’t even get me started on Marilyn Manson. Yes this happened a long time ago – on the last season of House he came on set to visit because he was a huge fan of the show & he harassed just about every woman asking us if we were going to scissor, rhino & called me a China man”
She continued in a second tweet:
“It’s so triggering to see people come up on the internet who have harassed you. And then when you talk about the incidents you become known as the person tied to the harasser. And that’s just your name from now on. It almost overrides who you are.”
Manson has yet to respond to the allegations.
So what happened? Well, during a concert in Huntington, New York, Manson acted out as he “frequently turned his back on the audience and spent 10 minutes demanding that the crowd applaud him,” explains Maxim:
Manson is on tour promoting his album Heaven Upside Down. His Thursday show at the Long Island theater [sic] reportedly started on the wrong foot by beginning late.
When Manson finally made it to the stage, it went to hell pretty fast. TMZ reports he made it through 5 songs before turning the weirdness up to eleven—yes, weird even for Marilyn Manson.
Manson—still wearing a cast from his injury at the September show—began rambling and singing off-beat. Then he rapped freestyle for a minute.
TMZ reported that he called New Jersey a “shithole,” repeatedly told the audience to “love him,” then walked off the stage.
By the end of the show, the audience was chanting: “Refund! Refund! Refund!”
Watch below, where things get heated around the 1:06 mark:
And here’s another video from the evening, which, from the 11:20 mark, shows what happens after he lost complete interest in performing:
Yoh, but those “whooo’s” are irritating.
Also, I can’t believe those gun props are still on the stage. No wonder he is acting weird – it’s like a constant trigger of what happened that terrible September night.
Between this rant, the firing of a fake semiautomatic rifle into the audience and those harassment allegations, I think it’s time Manson bowed out before things get too messy.
