Bloated Marilyn Manson breaks cover with wife Lindsay Usich in Hollywood amid sex assault & rape claims
MARILYN Manson was spotted on a rare outing with his wife Lindsay Usich amid ongoing sexual assault and rape claims.
The singer has been laying low since a series of accusations emerged that he was violent towards ex-lovers.
Marilyn was seen out with his 37-year-old partner as they went out in Hollywood, California on Wednesday night.
The controversial star appeared bloated as he sported a typical all black ensemble including coat, T-Shirt, baggy pants, and leather boots.
Usich, meanwhile, rocked a black cardigan, a green dress and matching black booties.
She could be seen clutching a small black Chanel bag as she joined her beau on the evening outing.

It is one of the rare occasions the couple have been spotted together since their honeymoon in Berlin last year.
It came shortly after his home was raided by the Los Angeles County sheriff’s department in November 2021 after the Special Victims Unit obtained search warrants.
Manson is currently facing lawsuits from three women, including Game of Thrones actress Esmé Bianco, model Ashley Morgan Smithine and a Jane Doe.
The singer is also suing ex Evan Rachel Wood for defamation following several claims aired in a documentary in January.

Last year, Evan claimed her ex-fiancé “horrifically abused her for years” and said she was desperate to “expose this dangerous man.”
And in the doc she accused Manson, 53, of raping her on his music video set in 2007.
She was reportedly “coerced into a commercial sex act under false pretences,” and had only agreed to a “simulated sex scene,” according to a documentary about her life and career, which premiered at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival.
In the film, Wood claimed that Manson “started penetrating me for real” once the cameras were rolling,” The Guardian reports.
“I had never agreed to that,” she said. “I was coerced into a commercial sex act under false pretenses. That’s when the first crime was committed against me and I was essentially raped on camera.”
She has also accused the star of grooming her.
While Esme previously claimed the rock star had tied her down and whipped her, electrocuted her and cut her with a knife.
She also alleges that he assaulted her during sex, and that he once chased her around with an axe in their apartment.
In an interview with the Cut, she said that her experiences left her with “physical scars” and suffering Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Manson has vehemently denied the allegations and insisted all his romantic relationships have been “entirely consensual.”

In a statement previously posted on Instagram, he said: “Obviously, my life and my art have long been magnets for controversy, but these recent claims about me are horrible distortions of reality.
“My intimate relationships have always been entirely consensual with like-minded partners. Regardless of how — and why — others are now choosing to misrepresent the past, that is the truth.”
