Evan Rachel Wood Confirms Break-Up With Marilyn Manson
OK … I think I finally got it straight — On Friday we got word that Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood were dunzo … then on Saturday, we got a denial from ERW herself that the pair split — implying that they were still together but, on a “break”. Today all that confusion is cleared up as ERW clarifies that YES the couple are no longer together but NO they did not break up because of a tiff over her brother (as was first reported in the initial break-up report) or because he was “emotionally abusive”. So now the pissy tone of her official statement to People magazine on Saturday makes sense … she is upset that the couple are no longer together. She spoke to US Weekly and proclaimed that she will always “love” and “respect” Marilyn Manson despite the fact that they are no longer together. She also goes on to clarify that she is not dating her co-star Mickey Rourke either (spread the word). Here are a couple pics of ERW lookin’ an awful lot like a cheap imitation of MM’s ex-wife Dita von Teese at the AFI Fest screening of her movie The Wrestler (which co-stars Rourke) at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre late last week:

Despite splitting with Marilyn Manson, Evan Rachel Wood says the rocker still holds a place in her heart. “I’m always going to love him and respect him,” she told Usmagazine.com Sunday at Hollywood Life’s Behind the Camera Awards in Hollywood. Asked how she is feeling, she told reporters, “I’m doing fine, you know, as best as can be expected.” She denied reports that they called it quits after Manson kicked her brother Ira out of his guest house. “You know, it’s not the nasty thing everybody thinks it is,” she said. “We’ve both got incredible things going on right now. He’s making an amazing album – I’ve heard some of it, and he should be very proud of it. You know, I’ve got [the upcoming drama] The Wrestler going on, and I’m focusing on that,” she added. Of the split, she said, “It’s not a bad thing. It’s life – it happens. But now, it’s like the story that comes right after the breakup [is]: Who am I dating now?” she said. “So right now, I’m just enjoying being on my own. It’s just not in the cards right now.” She denied reports that she is romancing Mickey Rourke, her co-star in The Wrestler. “Everybody thinks we’re dating, and we’re not. Spread the word – I’m not dating Mickey Rourke!” she said. “You know, we developed a close friendship. He’s a great guy, a talented guy. He’s been through it all, and [we had] such intense shoots, I think, because we played father and daughter [in The Wrestler]. I think he’s just kind of trying to take me under his wing.
OY! I’m so glad all of this nonsense has been straightened up. Despite the fact that she sounds like she is still pining for her lost relationship with MM, I think it’s best that she stay away from much older men … at least for a little while. I really hope she’s not getting involved with Mikey Rourke … he is like the ungoth but just as crazy version of Marilyn Manson. ERW is such an amazing actress … it’s a shame to see her running after the crazy sort of guys that she is so attracted to. I doubt that dressing like Dita von Teese is going to win back Mr. Manson … hello, he divorced her, remember? In any event, I wish her luck … with her taste in men, she’s prolly gonna need it.

Ugh! I was so happy to see her looking all gorgeous in Across the Universe. PLEASE ERW, REVERT TO THE LUCY LOOK!!! She’s too delicate for the DVT look.

Really, she should be happy without mr manson.

Who’s trying to look like Dita?

It would be interesting to see who she really is underneath the different images that Marilyn Manson created for her ranging from Lolita to Dita. She seems to be stuck in the Dita download currently.

OMG!!! how much does she look like Dita?!?!?
November 10th, 2008 at 11:10 am
At first I thought you made a mistake Trent when you put up pics of Dita, but then I realized ERW went black! I like the look on her, it looks pretty natural. I wonder what red would look like on her.

In the left picture she looks like a dolled up gretchen wilson!

Taylor – you’re right… Red would totally be her color… it would allow her to go the retro look and keep her own identity.
November 10th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Please don’t try to be Dita.
Please.

Man… she doesn’t do very well with the “Dita” look….. it does NOT look good on her..
How weird is it that she is so obvious about it, too?? I wouldn’t be in public, all OBVIOUSLY trying to look like my man’s ex. It’s weird. Girl needs to find her OWN identity!!
November 10th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Uhg! I can’t even stand to look at her.
November 10th, 2008 at 3:57 pm

November 10th, 2008 at 5:40 pm
