On January 5, 2026, Marilyn Manson celebrated his birthday with a high-profile party that brought together figures from different chapters of his personal and professional life. Photos from the night showed Manson surrounded by former partners, close friends, and longtime collaborators.
Dita Von Teese — His Former Wife
One of the most talked-about appearances was Dita Von Teese, Manson’s ex-wife. The two were married from 2005 to 2007 and were once one of rock and fashion’s most iconic couples. Their appearance together was notable given their highly publicized relationship during the mid-2000s.
Lindsay — His Current Wife
Manson was also photographed with Lindsay Usich, his current wife. Lindsay has been a constant presence in his life in recent years and is also known for her work as a photographer and visual artist.
Courtney Love — Longtime Friend and Rock Peer
Courtney Love attended the party and was seen kissing Manson on the cheek. The two have shared a long-standing friendship dating back to the 1990s alternative rock scene, often moving in the same social and musical circles.
Billy Corgan — Fellow Rock Icon
Billy Corgan was also in attendance. Manson and Corgan have known each other for decades, connected through the alternative rock world and mutual respect as influential figures from the same era.
John 5 — Former Bandmate Steals the Shot
John 5, Manson’s former guitarist and longtime collaborator, also ended up photobombing that same photo with Billy Corgan. John 5 was a huge part of Marilyn Manson’s band during the late 1990s and early 2000s, contributing to some of the group’s most well-known material.
