Marilyn Manson talks about giving Johnny Depp a mohawk

Icon Award winner Marilyn Manson was one of the most talked-about guests at the 2016 APMAs, so when red carpet hosts Ash Costello (New Years Day) and Keith Buckley (Every Time I Die) got a chance to talk to him, it was nothing short of the delightful spectacle we've come to expect from The Pale Emperor. 

When asked how it felt to be receiving this year's Icon Award, Manson said, “Awards are things that you put on your shelves sometimes, but this one is actually special. [Twiggy] and I used to steal 'Alternative Press' from record stores in Florida, because we wanted to try to pick out what girls we would…” 

Well, you can watch to find out how that sentence ended and whom he name-dropped. 

Other than giving us the dirt on his early relationship with AP Magazine, Manson talks about how he had recently given Johnny Depp a mohawk on the fly.
