Marilyn Manson probably knew that saying something untoward about Courtney Love wouldn’t go unnoticed—or unanswered.
Presumably he was fully anticipating the aftermath as well.
“We never really had a falling out,” the glam-goth rocker told Esquire in a new interview when asked how he and the Hole frontwoman ultimately buried the hatchet after a reported feud.
“We’ve always been weird with each other,” Manson continued, “because she’s slept with pretty much every one of my friends, supposedly. Not me, though. She, one time, told me she was mad at me because I didn’t want to f–k her and I was smarter than her. I said, ‘Well, you kind of proved your own point right there on that one.’ But it was cool.”

Well, maybe it was cool…
“Omg @marilynmanson all this time thought u’re gay,” Love cracked on Twitter apparently after getting wind of his Esquire interview. “Of course I’ll f–k u. Im free Fri from 1:15 to 1:18 gives us plenty time 4 a smoke too x.”
The two musician-actors both happened to appear in recent final season of Sons of Anarchy, but Manson told the mag that they never crossed paths on set (which makes sense, considering they appeared in prison and pre-school scenes, respectively).
They did see each other on the red carpet premiere, however. “Her dress broke, and I said, ‘You okay? Your p—y didn’t show, did it?'” Manson recalled, “and she said, ‘No,’ and I went, ‘Thank God! That would’ve been horrible!’ That was the only time I f–ked with her. Other than that, I’m cool with Courtney.”
Talking about how everything was cool between him and Love apparently reminded Manson of another fellow artist whom he’s shared some headlines with over the years.
“It was funny, because I ran into Billy [Corgan], and a lot of people think there was some kind of falling out,” he said of the Smashing Pumpkins frontman. “It was mostly that he wrote a strongly worded letter about how Rose McGowan would ruin my life and ruin my career if I stayed with her, which was good advice, and he wrote it as a letter, which is very polite. There is sort of a guy code that I abide by where he totally offered his advice, and he was genuinely just looking out for my best interests. I hadn’t seen him in 15 years. I had forgotten how close we were, having not seen him in so long. He’s the one who taught me how to play guitar, so if it sucks or it’s good, it’s his fault.”
Isn’t it bromantic?
