Dita Von Teese to divorce Manson
January 8, 2007 
Burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese, famous for her corsets and retro 50s look, is to divorce husband Marilyn Manson, it has been announced.
The model and dancer whose real name is Heather Sweet has cited "irreconcilable differences" for the split, which comes just over a year after they tied the knot in November 2005.
They had reportedly been seeing each other for seven years before getting married, with Mason a big fan of her corset, stocking and suspender-clad style.
However it now seems that Von Teese and the goth-rocker are no longer the perfect couple that many once thought, with some insiders blaming Manson's heavy drinking.
Von Teese had reportedly moved out of their shared home before Christmas, and had been unable to contact her soon-to-be ex-husband to tell him that she was beginning divorce proceedings.
