Throughout One Assassination Under God – Chapter 2 , Marilyn Manson constructs a dark journey through death, violence, accusation, isolation, mortality, and the search for something beyond him. “Don’t Answer the Door” speaks of a voice being a guiding light in the darkness, while “None of the Suns” speaks of running away from the daylight and being “in the black.” By the time we arrive at “Lucifer’s Teardrop,” the journey has reached a different point. The darkness is still present, but the speaker is finally prepared to stand before what shines. “Lucifer’s Teardrop” is therefore less a departure from everything that came before it than a turning point within it. The fallen angel at the center of the song has been cast out, wounded, and changed by what happened to him, but he is no longer simply defined by the fall. He is “finding my way home.” That movement becomes especially important when considered alongside Manson’s own explanation of the song. He said that its title was inspired...
Marilyn Manson attended Netflix's 2025 Emmy's Toast on Friday night September 12, 2025. The only online evidence of his presence there were two photos posted by actress Chloë Sevigny in her InstaStories, where Manson has his arm over her shoulder posing for the photo and she is being playful with him, and next to them are her husband Siniša Mačković with Swedish filmmaker and musician Jonas Åkerlund. Despite being photographed with other people that night, Chloë decided to only post those two photos with Manson. In less than 12 hours after posting those photos, they were removed from her InstaStories. What happened?
If you go to Chloë's Instagram page under her September 6th post (the last she posted), you will see that she got a bunch of backlash for posting those stories with Manson. The two photos also circulated by haters on other social media platforms and Reddit, calling her out for being photographed with "rapist" and "abuser" Manson. One can only imagine the private messages she got. There was no doubt that the photos were likely removed due to this backlash ahead of Sunday's Emmy Awards for which she received her first nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or Movie, thanks to her performance in Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.
This PR nightmare was confirmed when a reply to one of these comments by Chloë herself was published. Her comment, however, was a shameful apology, and she blamed it all on being intoxicated. She wrote:

It's one thing to be simply photographed with Manson, but to be nearly licking his face in the photo and then post only the photos with him in her stories instead of other photos of herself from the event is a whole other matter. Clearly she was trying to avoid a celebrity scandal with a silly excuse in the form of an apology in order to distance herself as much as possible from her Party Monster co-star Marilyn Manson. It may be true she didn't realize the backlash she would get, but downplaying everything else, where she can't even admit that they were at the same party but just happened to meet in a hotel lobby, then blaming everything on being drunk, just comes off as dishonest.
Now that the Emmy's are over, she should apologize for her pathetic apology.
