Go green with Marilyn

'Shock-rocker', or something or other, Marilyn Manson is to launch his own brand of popular-with-DiS-writers super-strong booze Absinthe.

Manson - who's been rather out of the headlines of late thanks to the antics of his not-often-fully-clothed lady friend (you know, her in the corset) - is to put his name to a Brand New Blend of the green stuff; DiS says: "Send us promo copies".

Manson's certain his brand will find a good few festive fans: "We hope to have it out in time for Christmas so parents can give it to their kids as a present."

Absinthe is banned in the US. Like, GUTTED AMERICA.
