Marilyn Manson's upcoming Born Villain LP will feature a guest appearance by his friend Johnny Depp, who collaborates with the macabre rocker on a cover of Carly Simon's "You're So Vain." The album, due May 1st, will be released on Manson's own Hell, Etc. label in conjunction with Cooking Vinyl/Downtown Records.

Manson and Depp have been mutual admirers for years, with the performer joining the actor as his "date" at the Disneyland premiere of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. Manson's headlining appearance at the Golden Gods Awards on April 11th in Los Angeles, his first U.S. gig in three years, will be followed by a tour in support of the new album.

I don't get it either. Is it supposed to be massive news that Johnny Depp will be on the song?

The 3 or 4 people who like the band and people like the actor. One of the actors I respect and like a lot with my favorite rock star is awesome and the more plugs for Masons new album the better.

Johnny Depp To Feature On Marilyn Manson's New LP!
EXCLUSIVE | The rocker tells us all about their future collaboration...

Shock rocker Marilyn Manson has revealed to MTV News that his new album will feature the musical talents of Hollywood superstar Johnny Depp.

Manson exclusively told presenter Joel Dommett (pictured) that the Pirates of the Caribbean actor plays drums and lead guitar on a bonus track they recorded for his eighth studio LP, Born Villain.

Speaking of their collaboration, The Beautiful People singer - who inspired Depp's performance of Willy Wonka in the 2005 film Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - revealed: "We did a cover version together of a song which we thought was ironic for each other,”

Manson continued: “He played drums and lead guitar, and I played guitar and sang. It’s a bonus track on my record and the video will probably be us looking at each other like a mirror.

“Johnny’s son Jack – whose birthday I’m gonna be performing at – was in the room and he actually played on the song too. It’s pretty cool.”

While nine-year-old Jack will have Marilyn Manson singing happy birthday to him in a few weeks, his older sister Lily-Rose could be receiving a new pair of shoes from their family friend.

The 43-year old explained: “I met Johnny when I was 19 when I was an extra on 21 Jump Street. I bought his daughter her first pair of high heels when she was wearing diapers, so we’ve been friends for a long time.”
