Actress Evan Rachel Wood has credited her ex-boyfriend Marilyn Manson with helping her discover her inner Goth, insisting the shock rocker was the first person to fully appreciate her dark side.
The odd couple began its romance last year (08), parting ways in October (08), but reconciling in 2009.
The relationship recently came to an end for the second time but Wood insists she has no regrets about dating such a controversial figure - because she could always be herself around him.
And Wood admits Manson gave her the strength to stand up to her stylist about her red carpet attire - allowing her to indulge her darker dress sense in public.
She tells the DailyBeast.com, "I would want to do something really dark or vintage or over-the-top for an award show, but my people would be like, ‘It makes you look old, let’s keep you young and fresh and light and fluffy.’ And I hadn’t gotten my voice yet, so I was just like, ‘OK, you’re right, I suck, I’ll wear what you say.'
"But then I met (Manson), and I found somebody who appreciated all those things about me that I thought were wrong. He liked the music I liked, the way I dressed, the people I hung out with.
"I was raised thinking that a relationship like that was just completely wrong. But I can’t choose who I fall in love with, and I’m not going to not do something that makes me happy just because people disapprove. It seemed natural to us and that was all that mattered.”
