OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!!!!

there was no way I was going to watch this piece of crap show, but now I am all over it. she is my idol.

I am so obsessed with Shirley Manson it is not even funny. I have worshiped her for the last 13 years of my life. In high school I even had this dress just like the one from the stupid girl video that I used to wear.

I don't even care if the show sucks. I could sit and listen to her just talk for hours and hours.

No, she hasn't given up on singing- her label has held up her debut solo album because they think it's "too dark" or some shit, and they don't want to release it.

Ya know this show was GREAT in its first season, NOW season 2 will be amazing with the addition of Shirley Manson! She is hot and carries alot of gravity in the work she does. If she manages to bring half of what she brings on stage then she will be AMAZING! Can't wait for season 2!
Hayley says – reply to this

her record label is being asses to her about her solo album (they expect her to be a Gwen Stefani). I'm glad she's doing something. I just want that album out.

buhbye says – reply to this

49

She use to cut herself as a teenager because of her unique look. I heard her story and also about how she over came her inner anxiety. It was really heart breaking!!!
pavakg says – reply to this

Who cares if she's giving up singing? She's joining a show that is supposedly NOT coming back next season. what?

By the way, that is not a great pic of her. She looks great in more recent pics.
Still foxy as hell!!
Tosh says – reply to this

54

Shirley kicks some major ass! The best rock chick of the 90s IMO.
I can't believe I'll have to watch Terminator movies to see/hear her voice. I hope she gets back to Garbage.. SOON!
Romeo says – reply to this

I Love says – reply to this

63

Shirley Manson rocks! I can't wait to see her act!!
aeryn says – reply to this

64

this is extremely sad news to me. she is my favorite female singer of all time and this only reinforces the point that garbage is not going to release new material any time soon, if ever again.
meg says – reply to this

65

i never got to see garbage in concert…now i probably never will! i hope that show gets canceled.
Educat says – reply to this

66

I have followed Shirley since Angel Fish..and I have to say I love Shirley!! She so hot and love the f-it attitude. She is the real deal "rocker chick". I hope that she does well..we need a badass mofo, with real talent, on the screen.
lilya says – reply to this

68

I love her…I don't care if she's stumbing around babbling gibberish she is mesmerizing to me. sigh
Meliss says – reply to this

Good grief. I can't believe how catty people can be. Shirley Manson looks terrific. Last I checked, it is possible to take a break from your music career to dabble in acting. And when your record label shelves an album you've worked hard on just because they think it's "too dark", I'd probably want a break too. For the fans of Garbage/Shirley Manson, please go here to sign a petition to get her album released. www.gopetition.com/online/18482.html Thanks!

It's good to see Shirley again. She was a great front for Garbage, sang a pretty good Bond theme, and she knows her age, which means we won't expect any half-ass band "comebacks." Good to see her getting into a new line of work.

My first cd was Garbage, Shirley Manson rocks.

Shirley Ann is perfection Period.
Meliss says – reply to this

73

OH! I don't think anyone mentioned this, but Shirley is featured on one of the songs from Gavin Rossdale's upcoming solo album. I wasn't super impressed by the 1st single being played on the radio, but I honestly like the song she's featured on.
butter says – reply to this

PLEASE MAKE ANOTHER ALBUM LIKE THE FIRST ONE!!!!!!!! I MISS THE OLD GARBAGE!!!!!!!

If that's a bad pic of her, I'd love to see a good pic. She still looks great IMO

I LOVE YOU SHIRLEY MANSON XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Garbag says – reply to this

77

She was in a group that was MADE UP, start to finish, by MUSIC COMPANY EXECS. She was a passable singer; the execs made passable music for them to play. It's not like we're talking about Robert Plant here.

ryan says – reply to this

82

f you cathy. she is not a has been. here solo album is being held hostage by warner bros. because its too dark. f warner bros too. cant wait to see the show. im sure she is going to be great! long live the queen!

“I played some of the stuff to them not long ago and they described it as being very noir. At the time, I took the comment as being a huge compliment. That they liked the intensity of my material. But then I realised it wasn’t intended as a compliment.

“But I’m 41 - I’m a woman not a kid. I have no interest in making silly pop music and I don’t want to wear a silly sexy outfit and sell myself short.

I love Shirley and I cannot wait to see her act! I hope she isn't putting the brakes on her music career, but I think she'll be great at anything she does.
M says – reply to this

91

SUHWEET! I love her! she has a great voice. she's gonna be soo kick ass. I might even match that show now.
Mark says – reply to this

92

This Shirley Manson is a dreadful self centered, opinionated cunt. She goes on and on about so much including what a fabulously talented icon Courtney Love is…another sad cunt. She has, at best, sung a few songs that have gotten some airplay with her geriatric "boys" in Garbage. She should keep her big stoopid trap shut. A true product of the modern age: another no talent big mouth way past her shelf life!
evy says – reply to this

YAY! I love her
Tatian says – reply to this

Coolio.I love her.I haven't really watched the show though.(By the way she has no relation whatsoever with Marilyn Manson-just in case someone makes an ignorant comment)
