In his post, Manson assured fans that he is receiving the best medical care and will be taking a break from touring and public appearances. “I want to thank all my fans for their unwavering support throughout the years. This is not goodbye, but a pause, and I look forward to returning stronger and better when the time is right.”
Manson’s recent projects had included plans for a new album and a series of live performances, but those have now been put on indefinite hold as he focuses on his recovery.
