"The Normal Side of Brian Warner"
On January 5, 1969, a person by the name of Brian Warner was brought into this world in Ohio. Little at the time did his parents know that this sweet lovable child would turn into the hideous monster Marilyn Manson. Before getting to the whole famous life of this rock star there is a childhood and pre-life to what he became. I bring you, the reader, the story of Brian Warner, the complete censored edition.
A live that has touched millions and yet at the same time shocked and upset millions. A controversy from what seemed to be such simple uprisings of a normal child. What really makes someone normal? Is it the way they are raised or is it something thought to be right but really unlawful to ones brain. Brian Warner was one who really found out that things should be looked at on the other side instead of "normal".
As a child he did most things normal and correct, doing what was right most of the time. Found on most of his early adventures at his grandparents house was his cousin named Chad. They would reek little havoc’s like any type of children’s prank and took pride to that.
He had a dog named Aleushu that had one discolored eye so it appeared to have two different color eyes, which in case was correct. Unfortunately, a demented neighbor poisoned the dog which was cruel and unfair to the growing child. Little Brian attended a Christian school which he sought out to get kicked out once he found out he did not belong there. He was do little mysterious things trying to let the important figures of the school know that he was evil and shouldn’t be there. He did get his way but after several years of waiting when his parents finally let him go to public school while in high school.
After completing his high school years, he and his family moved to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Here he showed his writing skills he had developed in a local magazine that he contacted to write in. It was there at a mall where he met his best friend to this very day. His name was Jeordie White and he was known slightly throughout the area because he played rhythm guitar for one of the area’s premier "metal" bands. This is where the musical side of Brian Warner comes into play where he eventually came up with the pseudonym "Marilyn Manson".
That was just the beginning of a long music career as a singer in the band. It has continued tens years and more to come until the fall of it. Parents watch your children because Marilyn Manson is coming to town to tell his story and he won’t stop. Brace yourself to something that is firm and balanced because when the wind comes it will blow you away.
