Manson's Partying Blamed In Split

A British newspaper reports that Marilyn Manson's wild partying with Lindsay Lohan is to blame for his recent split from Dita Von Teese.

Von Teese, aka Heather Sweet, cited "irreconcilable differences" in divorce papers filed Dec. 29 in Los Angeles.

According to Sun columnist Victoria Newton, Von Teese dumped husband Manson because of his wild drug taking and non-stop parties with Lohan. Lohan's publicist tells The ShowBuzz the report is "untrue."

A source close to Von Teese told The Sun, "Dita just had enough of his wild partying. Lindsay Lohan was always ringing up the house wanting to come round and party with him … The phone would go all through the night, with people turning up at the house to hang out."

Von Teese reportedly told Manson that if he didn't sort himself out she was leaving. The Sun says that Von Teese complained that the goth rocker, who apparently wasn't ready to start a family, stayed up all night taking drugs, which made him paranoid.

The source told the Sun that Manson "became paranoid as a result of the drugs he was taking. At one stage he thought the cleaner was trying to kill him … Dita wants a quieter life and to have a baby. She told Manson to sort himself out or she was leaving. Unfortunately, nothing changed and he didn't clean up his act."

Von Teese and Manson wed Nov. 28, 2005.
