Marilyn Manson did his best Evander Holyfield imitation and got his his ear nearly ripped off during a brawl in Switzerland. He needed twenty four stitches to save the ear; he got them and took a photo which he posted on Twitter.
In true Marilyn Manson fashion, he claimed to have won the brawl, and has not publicly spoken on what the actual fight was about. He said “I was hit by a glass table in a dangerous fight. I was however, [sic] the victor but had to have 24 stitches to keep my ear from becoming Van Goth.” While I love some of Marilyn’s music, I’d feel more comfortable looking at this picture if I knew why the fight happened.
You can look at the gored ear after the jump, if that’s your thing.
