MANSON SPENT BAND'S EARNINGS ON ILLEGAL HUMAN ARTIFACTS

LATEST: MARILYN MANSON is facing more legal action from his former keyboardist after a new complaint was filed, accusing the shock rocker of spending the band's earnings on items made from human remains. Madonna Wayne Gacy - real name Stephen Gregory Bier Jr. - made the revelation in new legal papers added to his existing lawsuit against the singer, in which he accuses the star of failing to pay him during his time in the band. Bier filed the original lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court in August (07), in which he claims Manson squandered his band's earnings on "sick and disturbing" Nazi memorabilia and a skeleton of a young Chinese girl, among other unusual items. Bier claims Manson, his business manager, lawyer and the band's manager "filched millions of dollars" from the band's earnings, after promising Bier "partnership proceeds" from the group in 1993. And in the new complaint filed by Bier's lawyer Keith Fink on Wednesday (21Nov07), Bier says Manson bought another skeleton of a man in a wheelchair, and African masks made of human skin - both illegal in the U.S. - according to the New York Post's gossip column PageSix. Bier also stated in the lawsuit that Manson arranged to have his actress girlfriend Evan Rachel Wood receive the "highest salary ever paid to any actress in any music video in history" for her appearance in the promo for Heart Shaped Glasses. Manson's representative has yet to comment on the new legal complaint.
