According to Jessicka Addams’ Facebook post, she dated White when she was 18 and wasn’t in a happy relationship, and referenced her abusive father. In the emotional message, she made a detailed claim that White abused her and forced himself on her.
“I have lived with the overwhelming shame and guilt of being raped for well over 20 years now,” Addams said. “Like many survivors, I unknowingly hid an abusive relationship in a most unhealthy way, masking it behind a fun loving, creatively artistic facade I struggled to wear on the outside world.”
“I knew at that point that Jeordie had not been faithful on tour, including being with women whom I to this day respect and considered my musical contemporaries,” Addams continued. “All this led to an argument I never saw coming. He forced me on to the floor with his hand around my neck. I said NO. I said NO. I said it so loud enough, that [Addams’ roommate] Pete came rushing in from the other room to get him off of me. But I had been raped. I had been raped by somebody I thought I loved.”
Marilyn Manson Fired Jeordie White
After Addams made her story public, Manson severed ties with White after he learned that he was accused of sexual assault.
“I have decided to part ways with Jeordie White as a member of Marilyn Manson,” Manson wrote on Twitter. “He will be replaced for the upcoming tour. I wish him well.” On Instagram, Manson added, “This is a sad day.”

Addams joined the “Me Too” campaign for sexual assault victims and in her post wrote: “No you got it all wrong! You destroyed me. You crushed me and stole my character. You robbed me of my peace. You made me not trust other men. You made me want to disappear. There is no excuse. We are taking our power back from you, all of you. People will no longer forgive you because of your fame.”
She added: “You can’t slut shame to make it go away. All the love in my heart, support and respect to all who are coming forward with their stories about rape & sexual assault.”
White has not commented on the rape accusations and it’s unclear who will replace him on Manson’s European tour for his new album, Heaven Upside Down.
