Alyssa Toomey of E!Online reports:
Marilyn Manson is currently on tour in support of his latest album The Pale Emperor and on Saturday, the 46-year-old rocker held a concert in Alberta, Canada. After the show, the musician reportedly hit up a local Denny’s to grab a bite to eat…where he was allegedly punched in the face.
A spokesperson for the Lethbridge Regional Police tells E! News, “On April 5th around 2:45 a.m. Lethbridge Police responded to a report of an altercation at a Denny’s restaurant along the 400 block of Mayor Magrath Drive South in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. Investigation determined that three people had been involved in a physical altercation and sustained minor injuries. No charges were laid and the file has been concluded.”
Officials would not reveal the identity of those who were involved in the physical altercation, telling E! News, “As it is our policy not to identify victims (except in homicide/fatal collision files) or release the identity of an accused unless charges have been laid, we are not able to disclose further information with respect to the parties involved.”
According to TMZ, sources say that Manson took part in the scuffle, which allegedly began after the musician made a rude remark directed at a fellow patron’s girlfriend, causing the customer to punch him in the face.
However, Manson’s manager tells TMZ that the “The Beautiful People” singer never made an inappropriate comment and happily obliged when two female diners asked him to take a picture, claiming the man came out of nowhere and socked him for no apparent reason.
TMZ further reports, per Manson’s manager, that the recording artist is planning to press charges.

Marylin Manson getting punched in the face is never for no apparent reason. The reasons are apparent to everyone.
Of course there are always two sides to every story. But after having seen Manson on TMS, if he was shitfaced when he talked shit to the woman, then he deserved to get bitch slapped, if not worse.
Manson is a self congratulatory has been. I like his first few records, and after that I don’t think he had any more in him to give. I could see it now, a half in the bag Manson taunting this girl “Hey shweethat, don’ yoo know whooo I am??” And then WHAMO!
Too bad he didn’t pull a David Carradine and tie himself up in a closet after he got himself bitch slapped with a pancake! I guess nobody’s scared of his mascara wearing self offstage.
