    The rocker-turned-actor has been dropped by his talent agents as he’s also cut from two TV shows after his ex Evan Rachel Wood accuses him of grooming her.

    Feb 3, 2021
    AceShowbiz – Marilyn Manson has been dropped by his talent agents and cut from TV shows “American Gods” and “Creepshow” following abuse allegations from his ex-fiancee Evan Rachel Wood.
    Just a day after the shock rocker was dumped by his label bosses at Loma Vista Recordings, executives at Creative Artists Agency – who also represent Wood – have chosen to cut ties with the musician-turned-actor, too, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
    The news emerges as TV officials move to scrub Manson from upcoming projects, with his last appearance as a recurring character in an upcoming episode of fantasy drama series “American Gods” set to be cut from the show.
    “Due to the allegations made against Marilyn Manson, we have decided to remove his performance from the remaining episode he is in, scheduled to air later this season,” network officials at Starz tells Deadline.
    “Starz stands unequivocally with all victims and survivors of abuse.”
    Likewise, chiefs at AMC’s Shudder have ditched Manson from horror anthology “Creepshow” second season.

    The “Personal Jesus” singer, real name Brian Warner, hit headlines on Monday (01Feb21) when Wood went public with the name of her abuser, accusing him of “brainwashing” her and “manipulating” her “into submission” during their years-long relationship, which began when she was 18 and he was 36.
    A number of other women have since also come forward with similar allegations of abuse, but on Tuesday, Manson fired back at the claims, branding the statements “horrible distortions of reality.”
    Meanwhile, former adult film star Jenna Jameson has also opened up about her “odd” romance with Manson back in 1997, revealing she dumped him after he reportedly shared a disturbing fantasy about her death.
    She told the Daily Mail, “We didn’t go out long because I cut it off after he would nonchalantly say he fantasised about burning me alive.”
    “Once he started speaking to me violently, I was like…, ‘Goodbye, Brian.’ ”
    Jameson also claimed his penchant for biting during sex was not fun as it left her covered in bruises. “Sexually he liked to bite, and it was disconcerting,” she added. “He is a lot. To say the least.”

      The Mr. Nancy depicter hits back at his former ‘American Gods’ co-star after the latter suggested the racism story was just Jones’ tactic to gain public sympathy.
      Mar 1, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Orlando Jones shared DMs from his former co-star Ricky Whittle who plays the lead role on “American Gods”. In his private message, Whittle expressed his dissapointment towards Jones for telling the public in December 2019 that he was fired from the Starz television series because of his race.
      Whittle disagreed with Jones. The British actor described the situation as “incompetence” and not “racism.” He suggested Jones only used the race card to get back at the producers because Jones was angry. He also slammed Jones for putting him and the other cast members in an awkward situation.
      He accused Jones of faking his racism claims, “Using the racism card to burn ur friends house down is clever but we both know it’s just incompetence not racism & we are caught in the crossfire. U have put me and the cast in a bad situation that’s unfair. I get ur angry, I get THEY cost u money, We totally had ur back on the incompetence, but pulling the race card to insight public trolls is a bulls**t tactic & u know it.”
      “I’m proud of all the powerful ethnic stories we are telling this season & yes I wish you were still here,” Whittle added. “Honesly, I hope to remain friends but have to say what ur causing is upsetting & im disappointed.”
      While Whittle wrote a lenghty message, Jones responded with a very short message. “So am I,” so he replied to Whittle’s disappointment.
      Whittle responded by admitting Jones “wrote some beautiful stuff and really helped get us through a tough season 2,” but he insisted he and the other cast members just didn’t understand “where the racism card comes in.”
      Getting no reply from Jones, he eventually wrote another message, “I know you’re just looking after you and yours, I respect that. Good luck, we always have love for you man and hope you get what you want fella #bless.”
      Jones chose to respond to Whittle publicly. He scoffed at his former co-star, saying it was a little too late for Whitte to reach out to him. “This person didn’t call me in September when I was fired or November or December. Has my cell, email, WhatsApp etc,” he revealed, adding that Whittle only sent him DMs because of the SAG investigation.
      Jones continued to put Whittle on blast over his seemingly fake concerns, “This man has no idea what transpired between me, Freemantle and Starz. Nvr asked. Nvr cared. Now he says he’s ‘caught in the crossfire.’ He also says, ‘I’m using the racist card to burn ur friends house down.’ ”
      He mocked, “Holy s**t! Wait, we’re friends? Yay!”

      He continued, “I’m so sorry my firing is SO upsetting to ‘we.’ When RodneyB & I were fixing ‘we’ in s2. ‘We’ was powerless & thankful. What makes u think ‘we’ experience as actors was anything like mine as an actor, writer, producer? How is my life, just like your lives? How are ‘we’ & me alike?”
