Marilyn Manson’s former keyboardist has added more disturbing items to the list of things Manson has squandered the band’s money on.

Following Stephen Bier’s first lawsuit against the shock rocker in August, Page Six is reporting that his new complaint filed this week states that Manson purchased “African masks made of human skin, a full skeleton of a 4-year-old Chinese girl that Manson is said to have turned into a chandelier, and another skeleton of a man in a wheelchair… swastika wall tiles and matching custom rugs, a mounted grizzly bear and two mounted baboons.”

Biers also finds fault with Manson hiring his girlfriend, Evan Rachel Wood, for the “Heart Shaped Glasses” video and paying her more than any music video actress in history.

Manson also allegedly used band funds to have roadies cart around suitcases filled with copies of the “Alice in Wonderland” books.

Dita Von Teese is a spy.

Or, at least, she’ll play the tragic Dutch double agent Mata Hari if director Martha Fiennes (yes, she’s Joseph and Ralph’s sister) has anything to do with it.

Fiennes hand-picked the burlesque beauty to play the lead in the film the director penned herself. “Dita has done a little acting before and I think she can handle it,” she said. “In fact, I approached her myself. She is perfect for the part.”

Fiennes doesn’t expect filming to start for more than 10 months, which should give Von Teese lots of time to research her character, who was executed by a firing squad during World War 1.
