Singer Marilyn Manson, 53, who recently became involved in a series of allegations of abuse and rape, has now decided to sue his ex-fiancée, actress Evan Rachel Wood, 34. According to a document obtained by People, he alleges that she and her friend and artist Illma Gore would have conspired to overthrow him.
According to a complaint filed Wednesday with the Los Angeles Superior Court, Manson wants money for claiming he has been the victim of defamation, emotional distress and Internet impersonation.
According to the complaint, the singer claims that both would have posed as FBI agents to coerce other women into believing that their families were at risk. And they would have pressured these people to accuse Manson of abuse.
The actress does not comment on the case, and Manson has always denied any rape. In the lawsuit, the rocker defends himself and says that both Evan and Gore “publicly cast him as a rapist and abuser. A malicious untruth that derailed his successful career in music, TV and film.”
There are at least 15 women who have accused him of sexual assault. Three of them, including ex-girlfriend Ashley Morgan Smithline and “Game of Thrones” actress Esmé Bianco, have filed lawsuits.
The actress accuses Manson of raping her on camera. The crime allegedly took place during the filming of the 2007 music video for “Heart-Shaped Glasses”.
Wood, star of the television series “Westworld,” made the accusations in the HBO documentary “Phoenix Rising.” The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.
“We discussed a simulated sex scene, but once the cameras started rolling, he started to really penetrate me,” she said. “I never agreed to that.”
The former child actress started dating Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner, in 2006. At the time, she was 18 and he was 37.
“I didn’t know how to defend myself and I didn’t know how to say no because I was conditioned and trained to never respond, just to move on,” Wood said. “I realized that the team was very uncomfortable and nobody knew what to do.”
“I was forced to participate in a commercial sex act under false pretenses,” she continued. “I was basically raped on camera.”
According to the documentary, Manson later pressured Wood into telling reporters that there was no actual sex during the recording of the video.
In addition, according to the British newspaper Daily Mail, Evan Rachel Wood claimed in April 2021 in court papers that the musician threatened to “screw” her son, Jack, in addition to threatening her with death and stating that he would “destroy” families. of the other women who accuse him. The actress claims to have installed bulletproof glass, a metal door and a security fence in her home after the threats.
