(Radio.com) A few weeks back, a controversial video emerged that was directed by Eli Roth and feature Marilyn Manson in addition to a Lana Del Rey rape scene. Immediately, Manson's camp denied their involvement in the video, which was tough to grasp, as he was in the video.

Now, Manson has broken his silence and explained, from his perspective, what exactly that was all about. "It wasn't a Marilyn Manson video," the singer told NME. "The editor of the company that put it out was somebody who's edited my videos, that video was something that was done with a camera that Eli (Roth, director), who's my friend, and I both wanted to test out, so I let him test it out [�] what they filmed was put in context seemingly as if it were a Marilyn Manson video, and that was in no way the intention.

"Eli and I wanted to do a music video with her but she was being such a problem," Manson added. "Although I still respect her, I'm friends with her. I just left, I was tired, I was not willing to make that part of the video. Eli and I originally had intentions of making a video with her, but that is not the intention that is represented in that film clip because that is not what I filmed, not for my video."
