MM has placed more importance on hyping his strange, androgynous lifestyle than he ever did on his "music" (if you want to call it that), so the mere fact that he is being sued by a parent after contributing to the death of her daughter is in no way shocking to me. To hear him call himself a "musician & entertainer" is.
Wasn't this the guy who played "Skippy" on "Family Ties"?
No, he's never been an actor--just Marilyn Manson (isn't that enough for one lifetime?).
