Marilyn Manson On His Feud With Justin Bieber: ‘I Don’t Like to Fight With Girls’
Damn! Marilyn Manson is picking up his feud with Justin Bieber during an interview with radio host Cindy Scull.
“I don’t like to fight with girls, so I don’t wanna fight Justin Bieber,” the singer said, responding to a feud he had with Justin after the pop star started selling a $195 Purpose Tour t-shirt with an unauthorized image of Marilyn featured on it.
Marilyn told Billboard magazine at the time: “I ran into him in some fancy bar where a lot of celebrities — a word that I despise—go. I saw a little girl in a pink hoodie with blond hair, and it turns out to be Bieber. I sit down, and I say, ‘Hey, so you wore my shirt and everything onstage.’ He was one of those touchy people that hit you when they talk, and he comes up to about dick height. Then he goes, ‘I made you relevant again.'”
He also said that Justin was a “real piece of s—t in the way he had the arrogance” to say that. “It was nice though that I didn’t have to sue his company for making the shirts that he wore with his name and my face on it. They were very much like, ‘We know we’re wrong here; just take as many dollars as you want.'”
During his interview with Cindy, after being asked about the merchandise, he said: “I don’t know, because I don’t know how to use the mind of a squirrel.”
