Back in September an unlikely celebrity feud began between the odd pairing of Marilyn Manson and Justin Bieber.
The feud was ignited when Bieber showed up to a meeting with Manson wearing a “Bigger Than Satan…Bieber” t-shirt with Manson’s face on the front.
“He was [already] wearing the shirt that had his name on my shirt, and he said to me, ‘I made you relevant again,’” Manson told Consequence of Sound. “Bad mistake to say to me.” Biebs said the t-shirt “was his idea.”
“He was a real piece of shit in the way he had the arrogance to say that,” Manson said about Bieber. “He was a real touchy-feely guy, too, like, ‘yo yo bro!’ and touches you when he’s talking. I’m like, you need to stand down, you’re dick height on me, ok? (laughs) Alright? So stand down, son.”
The next day Manson told Bieber he’d be at his soundcheck to perform “Beautiful People” only he never actually planned on doing it, but Bieber believed that he would “because he was that stupid,” said Manson.
The shirt, which Bieber’s people claimed was done with Manson’s permission, was actually not approved by him, for which they ended up having to pay him a large sum of money.

Fast forward to this week and Manson is still throwing barbs at The Biebs, ripping him again during an interview on The Scully Show.
After interviewer Cindy Scully called Bieber an “arrogant little fuckface” and saying the goth rocker “should go kick Justin Bieber’s ass” Manson had this to say…
“Well he’s in some sort of sexual religious cult with an Asian version of Dave Navarro, apparently. The guy doesn’t wear a shirt, I don’t know exactly. But no, I don’t like to fight with girls, so I don’t want to fight with Justin Bieber.”
Then, as for why Bieber thought he could get away with basically stealing Manson’s t-shirt design?
“I don’t know, because I don’t know how to use the mind of a squirrel. It is representing rock and roll though, I appreciate the fact that you identify with the integrity that I try to represent with rock music. Because if I don’t do it, who else is going to? If you want to fuck with that, if you tap the cobra, you’re going to get the fangs. If you kiss the cobra, you get the venom. I’m not really sure what that metaphor means, but you can just absorb that and put it into your own brain.”
Manson also discussed having a giant stage prop fall on him during one of his recent concerts, but really, it’s the Bieber stuff that’s the most fun.
