Kanye West (legally known as Ye West) has stirred up new controversy by inviting Marilyn Manson to his Sunday Service live stream event. Justin Bieber joined the rapper during the performance. Fans were enraged by the appearance of Manson, who is presently facing multiple sexual assault charges from various women, as they chastised West.
Kanye has faced backlash before for inviting Manson to one of his concerts. Marilyn was previously referred to by the rapper at a listening party for his new album Donda held at Soldier Field in Chicago in August. Manson was also credited as a co-writer on Kanye’s album for the songs Jail and Jail Pt. 2.
Justin Bieber was also seen attending and performing at West’s latest Sunday Service event, along with Roddy Ricch. During a prayer circle during the Sunday Service, Justin, Kanye, and Marilyn huddled together. West had previously used Instagram to let his fans know that the Sunday Service would be performing for the first time in over 18 months. Netizens slammed West on social media for demonstrating his support for Manson yet again.
When Kanye welcomed Manson to his Donda listening party, Marilyn’s former partner, Evan Rachel Wood, resorted to social media to express her displeasure, writing, “For my fellow survivors who have had their faces smacked this week. I’m in love with you. Please don’t give up.”
