WWW- Hotel maids shouldn’t be alarmed if they hear screams coming out of the honeymoon suite of rocker Marilyn Manson and burlesque artist Dita Von Teese. They’re probably just indulging in their usual slap and tickle.
“I’m into bondage,” Von Teese said shortly before heading to her nuptials last weekend in Ireland. “I think it’s really fun, and I love playing the part of the damsel in distress. … The feeling is amazing when someone [spanks me] right.”
She also admitted “dabbling” in the sort of erotic asphyxiation that cost INXS singer Michael Hutchence his life in 1997.
“I think it’s exciting when you do it with someone you trust,” the new Mrs. Manson told Steppin’ Out magazine’s Chaunce Hayden. “I know there are different gadgets people can buy to do it to themselves safely, so that when they pass out they can breathe again. You just have to do it safely.”
She also sanctions the sort of aquatic activity Ricky Martin recently discussed. “It doesn’t gross me out or scare me,” she said. But she has her limits.
“I don’t want to bleed on anyone, and I don’t want anyone bleeding on me,” she said firmly.
Okay, here’s another question: Does Marilyn wear his creepy glass eye around the house?
“I won’t answer that.”
Von Teese denies that their marriage is built on anything but love.
“I get accused a lot of using him for my benefit. But the truth is I got a lot of hate mail when I first started to date him. I actually had people who didn’t want to be members of my Web site anymore because they felt he tarnished my pristine image or something. So it works both ways.
“There are things that I gained and things that I lost because of our relationship. But what it all comes down to is that I’m in love with Marilyn Manson, so there’s no other choice in the matter. Plus, if I were looking to date someone to further my career … I don’t think I would have picked the Antichrist!”
