Rocker Set to Snuggle With Snakes

Since he's been involved in the music business for a good part of his adult life, Marilyn Manson should be awfully familiar with surrounding himself with creepy, venomous creatures -- which makes us think his latest plan is more than just a pipe dream.

Manson is said to have his sights set on breaking into the Guinness Book of World Records by climbing into a tub stocked with rattlesnakes, where he'll have to recline for a full 45 minutes in order to get credit for the effort. Manson will have to round up more than 87 of the critters to break the current record, which is held by Jackie "The Texas Snakeman" Bibby, a task that seems tough, but not as difficult as his first attempt to make the record book -- by nominating himself as the handsomest man in rock 'n' roll.

"Racist loser"? Sorry, but he only COLLECTS that memorabillia. He is not racist. One of his band members was Jewish and a few of his friends are African American. :|...

By the way, this is a lie. This "Manson bathing with snakes" was made up. Watch the recent interview with Manson on "The Graham Norton Show" (not the older one, "The Graham Norton Effect").
He quotes (full convo):
Manson: "Okay, let me clear this up. Some guy in Texas thinks I want to challenge him in bathing with snakes...? :|"
Graham Norton: "I heard about that!"
Nigella (other guest): "Why would somebody in Texas do it?"
Graham Norton: "The question is, WHY WOULD ANYONE DO IT?"
Manson: "Why would I do it? Look, I haven't showered in four days and i'm proud of it ha ha ha."


And he never called himself "Handsomest rockstar" either. :|...

With any luck at all he could have 87 snake bites and then the nightmare will be over.

Hopefully the snakes will bite his sell out ass repeatedly, then he can be buried with all of his Nazi memorabilia, fucking racist loser.
