If you were one of the unlucky spectators that Marilyn Manson spit on at his concert recently, no worries. You won’t be contracting the swine flu from his Unholyness.

Promoters for his concerts, Live Nation, have announced that any information about Marilyn having the swine flu is false - including the information that came from the rocker himself.

Marilyn posted on his Facebook that a doctor “officially diagnosed” him with the disease, causing some panic from previous concert goers.

Manson went on to write: “I know everyone will suggest that fucking a pig is how this disease was obtained. However, the doctor said, my past choices in women have, in ‘no way’ contributed to… me acquiring this mysterious sickness. Unfortunately, I am going to survive. M.”

Ha! Funny!

Anyway, despite his own personal confirmation, Live Nation also released a statement, saying exactly the opposite
“The Gillett Entertainment Group and Live Nation confirmed today that contrary to rumours circulating, Marilyn Manson is not suffering from swine flu.”

So who to believe: the money-grubbing corporate machine or the over-dramatic, over-medicated lunatic rocker?

Because both are such reliable sources!
