“Game of Thrones” actress Esmé Bianco is the latest to accuse Marilyn Manson of terrifying abuse — claiming he repeatedly cut her with a knife, bit and whipped her and even chased her with an ax.
The 38-year-old British actress told The Cut that the 52-year-old shock rocker — who had been her teenage idol — controlled her like a prisoner when she left her husband to live with him for two months in 2011.
She said Manson went from being a “massive role model who really helped me through some incredibly dark and difficult times as a teenager” to a “monster who almost destroyed me and almost destroyed so many women.”
“He’s not a misunderstood artist,” she told The Cut. “He deserves to be behind bars for the rest of his life.”
The addition of Bianco makes it at least a dozen women making abuse allegations against the goth rocker, who has been dropped by his label.
Like fellow actress Evan Rachel Wood, she has even testified to California lawmakers about her abuse, without naming Manson, whose real name is Brian Warner.
Bianco said Manson’s public persona was a telling insight into his real behavior. “He’s told the world time and time again, ‘This is who I am,’” she said. “He hid in plain sight.”
Her “Game of Thrones” character, Ros — who works in a brothel and is controlled, threatened and tortured by the men around her — proved painfully close to her reality with the rocker, she said.
In her interview, Bianco said she was introduced to Manson in 2005 through his then-fiancée, Dita Von Teese, and they were initially platonic friends.
That changed in 2009 when she flew to LA to film scenes for his video “I Want to Kill You Like They Do in the Movies” — and he tied her to a prayer kneeler, lashed her with a whip and used an electric sex toy called a Violet Wand on her wounds as a “torture device,” she said.
They started a long-distance affair while she was still married — in which she said Manson bit her without consent — and she finally left her husband to move in with the rocker in March 2011.
He quickly started controlling her life, dictating what she wore, when she slept and when she could leave his West Hollywood apartment, she claimed.
“I basically felt like a prisoner,” she said. “I came and went at his pleasure. Who I spoke to was completely controlled by him.
“I called my family hiding in the closet,” she said of her fears of upsetting the star.
Manson would also show Bianco’s sex scene from “Game of Thrones” on a projector for guests, telling them, “That’s my girlfriend, she’s a whore. Look, her t–s are out,” a witness told The Cut.
She started drinking heavily to blanket the pain, while Manson would start his day with “breakfast” of cocaine and absinthe, the report said.
She finally left him in the middle of the night in May 2011 when he chased her around the apartment with an ax.
Before naming Manson, Bianco once shared a photo of her back covered in wounds.
“The whipping that gave me these wounds was filmed in the name of ‘art’. I used to look at this photo with pride because I thought it was a sign of great devotion to my abuser. Now I look at it with horror,” she wrote in March 2019.
A lawyer for Manson did not respond to a request for comment, The Cut said.
Manson previously called other abuse claims against him “horrible distortions of reality.”
“My intimate relationships have always been consensual with like-minded partners. Regardless of how — and why — others are now choosing to misrepresent the past, that is the truth,” he insisted.
