Edgy nineties icon Marilyn Manson, whose acclaimed song "The Beautiful People" connected the "culture of beauty" with the master-slave morality theory of Nietzsche, is the new face of Saint Laurent.

Named partly for Charles Manson and known for his edgy, theatrical stunts both on and off stage, Marilyn Manson, née Brian Hugh Warner, now has a damn classy gig to add to his resume: shilling for high fashion as the new face of Saint Laurent. It's a strange pick to be sure. But is it the strangest celebrity-product marriage ever? Probably not. But you be the judge.--Beth Greenfield, Shine Staff
