Marilyn Manson Paris Jackson [VIDEO]: Mimics Slashing Wrist at Dedication Concert [WATCH]
Marilyn Manson has caused controversy yet again by dedicating a song to Paris Jackson and mimicking the act of cutting his wrist at a concert Thursday.
On Thursday night, before Manson performed his song Disposable Teens he gave a special shout-out to the 15-year-old.
"This song is for Paris Jackson," he told the crowd.
The rocker then took out a meat cleaver and simulated the act of cutting his wrist, a clear reference to the incident.

The act drew immediate outrage from suicide prevention groups, such as The Samaritans, who released a statement on Friday to MailOnline:
"Everyone in the suicide prevention field agrees that graphic depiction of self-harm is a provocative act that does impact people who are in distress in a manner that is very counter-productive and harmful. Even in creative environments there should be some sense of social responsibility that is aware of the impact of actions and messages."
Manson had reached out to Jackson on Thursday after the 15-year-old attempted suicide by cutting her wrist on Wednesday. The incident occurred after she learned that she wasn't allowed to go to Manson's concert on Thursday.
"I hope you feel better," Manson said in a statement, "You will be on my guest list anytime you want."
Manson wrote the song Disposable Teens in 2001 and features relatively dark lyrics, such as:
"I wanna thank you mom / I wanna thank you dad / For bringing this f-kin' world to a bitter end / I never really hated a one true god / But the god of the people I hated."
Manson has described the song as being aimed particularly at teens "who were brought-up to feel like accidents."
Jackson had reportedly been bullied at school and was very affected by the loss of Michael Jackson, her father.
