Are you referring to her husband, GF? Marilyn is a really sweet and intelligent man. He's also interesting and flamboyant. I think they make an absolute perfect couple. :)

Or were you talking about her fetish work? lol

I have to agree. I can see why Manson's job is unpopular with many denizens of the Lounge, and understand that Dita's work isn't applauded across the board*. However they're both very good at what they do: I've seen Dita live, and thought her act was probably the finest of its type that I've seen, and I enjoy much of her husband's music - especially when I'm writing.

What can't be denied is that they both make an effort when it comes to clothes, and that Dita's wardrobe is an absolute paragon of vintage elegance.

Manson wears suits and spectator shoes: I might wish he'd tuck his shirt in occasionally, but he's an awful lot more stylish - and closer to the Lounge idea of it, too - than many others in the public eye. Maybe we should take up a collection and send him a hat?

* Pun intended.

lol lol lol

And I've never met him, so I was just referring to his stage persona.

I admit I haven't actually met him but I have seen him interviewed and read quite a bit about him, so I should have actually said he seems, not he is a likeable chap!

But on stage? Ewww, I really don't like the music at all!

Aaahh, that show was great, wasn't it? :D

Absolutely! He may not be everyone's cuppa (visually, he's not mine) but he does put a lot of effort into the way he looks. I have to respect that in anyone (except chavs of course!!!).

Some red lippy wouldn't go amiss either - black is sooo pass?© dahlink! lol

Actually I have seen an interview with him and he does, seem quite normal actually. The music is okay, I suppose, and it is fun to see someone do something original and a little crazy.

And so, yes...I really am bored...just waiting until my boss leaves here in a little while so I can go home too! :D

If one can indeed judge a man by the company he keeps, then Manson is by no means an idiot. I've heard his name linked to several people I know professionally by reputation, many of whom are particularly averse to indulging the hard of thinking. I've also had positive reports from an acquaintance who knew him before the Spooky Kids took off.

As I said at the time, only one other performer I've seen comes close.

It is? Why does nobody tell me these things! lol

Hang on: aren't high-waisted trousers, belt-back suits and good enunciation pass?© as well, strictly speaking? lol

Bah figures! There can't be happily ever after anymore it seems, especially in Hollywood. But didn't they date for like two years? I would have figured after that you'd know if marriage would work or not!

Well seven is even more disheartening then!
But a divorce rumor would definitely perk up interest, and thus sales;)

Sometimes marriage kills love :( I know a couple that was together since 10 years happily. But than they married and the marriage didn´t even last for a year. Some people start to feel too sure of their partner and start to neglect them and stop to take them serious. But you just can´t tell before in some cases. [huh]
