The Dope Show: Marilyn Manson (Story of a Song)

She threw the magazine against the wall, it bounced of and landed on the floor. It was opened, oddly enough, to the page she had been looking at when she threw it. "Are YOU the Next Big Model?" The bright words on the page asked. 1

Some of the pictures were of unnaturally skinny celebrities and others were of blue eyed blonde girls with big boobs. They only want the pretty, pretty ones, she thought, and the pretty pretty ones leave you low and blow your mind. 2

She used to be one of those models, she was famous too. But when the new girls had come, the ones with golden hair and sapphire eyes, her black hair and green eyes had been kicked out the door with no love for tomorrow. 3

She had been famous every one knew her and she had been a good honest girl. But they only loved her when she was on all the covers, now that she wasn't they loved the others. She hated those pretty girls, she thought as she went and got the magazine again, this time with the intent of ripping it up.4

She bent down and snatched it up off the floor, closing it, she glanced at the cover. The big black letters on the top proclaimed the title, "The Dope Show". 5

She gave it a final scathing look and ripped the entire thing in half.

Author notes

I dont own Marilyn Manson or The Dope Show I only own Story of a Song.

On another note, this may not be how Manson views this song but this is how I see the modeling industry. Ever notice how so many models and pagent winners are skinny blue eyed blondes? Its idiotic. Judge me if you will for my opinions but this is what I think and it is about as likely to change as the modeling industry is.

    Hmm, I liked it a lot. I don't like all the models because they are overly skinny. Girls are made to have curls. And as a Natural blonde who dies her hair... You're right. People do like blonde haired blue eyed girls. But not if they're bigger than usual. Grammar, spelling was good. Structure was good too. Keep it up.

    It was okay...flow was a bit jumpy, but I think you survived. Personally, I think the modelling industry is pathetic, from....nearly any aspect you look at it. So I'm all for the modelling satire/beating stories!

    Kudos and keep writing!!
