Heavy metal musician Marilyn Manson's UK gig cancelled over sexual harassment allegations

London, June 29 (UNI) American industrial metal and rock musician Marilyn Manson, known for his shock horror aesthetics and uncomfortable spooky music videos, was forced to cancel his show in Birmingham after facing stiff protests from a local MP and activists, due to recently levied allegations of sexual harassment at the singer, reports Metal Hammer.

The gig, scheduled to take place at the Brighton Centre on October 29, was set to be the opening date of the singer’s One Assassination Under God tour.

According to the Brighton Argus, concert-goers have been informed by Ticketmaster that the show has been cancelled, and that tickets will be refunded. The date no longer appears on Ticketmaster’s website.

Following protests from online pressure group No Stage For Abusers, Siân Berry, MP for Brighton Pavilion, wrote an open letter to Brighton And Hove City Council calling for the show to be cancelled in light of sexual allegations made against the singer.

Manson, known for metal and rock classics such as ‘Beautiful People’, ‘This is the New S***’, ‘Tourniquet’, ‘Personal Jesus’, ‘Tainted Love’, and his creepy rendition of the Eurythmics song ‘Sweet Dreams’ has been accused of sexual misconduct by more than a dozen women since 2021.

He has denied all allegations of wrongdoing. In January, California prosecutors’ investigation into claims of domestic violence by four women ended.

No criminal charges were pressed against the heavy metal singer, because his alleged actions exceeded the statute of limitations. UNI ANV SSP
