Trent Reznor Is A Biological Success Story, Having A Baby

• yes...he IS a sad little old man stuck with a used pino. *sigh*

• "Bisexual" being the operating word. Last time I checked, bisexual guys still like women.

• What the BEEP--- Did he Marry, An F-N Tranny! Yeap the rummors are true. Trent has finally found his one and only half man half woman. lol. 

• Right because every pregnancy out there matches your sister's exactly.My god what are any of us thinking.This Kevin knows him personally.He in fact lives with him and watches him shooting up.No scratch that he holds the needle while Trent slaps his arm.Please get another cause other than the I think I know what I am talking about rant hmm? Everyone can and does change whether it be for good or bad.Oh and also if you do so obviously disdain and loathe both of these people  why go to comment on a website story dedicated to them? Do you have recorded proof that what you say is true? No most likely not.So find another orifice to speak from rather than the one you picked in this forum.

• Okay, "Gotamangina", so pregnant women either look like fat slobs or "don't show properly", meaning that no matter what a woman looks like in her pregnancy, YOU think she looks WRONG. There is nothing wrong with looking the way you look during your pregnancy. You're bringing a new life into the world, not introducing the world's next uber-model.  STOP BEING A JERK ABOUT WOMEN'S BODIES. IT'S NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS.

• Your sister is probably a fatty with no abdominal strength.  Slim women don't show properly for months.

• all pregnancies are different.  I was 6 months along before I started showing with my daughter and by the time I was 9 months I only looked about 6 months along. It really depends on the women and how the baby is positioned.

• I think I speak on behalf of everyone else commenting on here when I say that you really shouldn't have posted something as stupid, judgemental, arrogant and false as that. People don't just decide to have children as a 'publicity stunt.' If you haven't noticed, Trent's backing away from the music industry now, more than ever before. He's on an indefinite hiatus from Nine Inch Nails, and because of their child (who has happily been born last October) their tour for HTDA has been delayed. And considering how damn hard it is to find the child's /name/ out let alone a picture, that doesn't scream 'publicity stunt' to me. If anything, they're just trying to raise their child as a normal baby, and ensnared by a multi-millionaire family.

• This is the dumbest thread of comments I've ever read. It's packed to the edges with "we have no life because we are basement dwellers who talk shit on the internets all day." Jesus.

• Everything you imply is without basis. Fake a marriage?, and accusing her of being illegal in this country. I wonder why you people hate Trent so much. Are you afraid of negative music. I'll bet you like happy, or shallow music. It's funny that no matter what Trent does, you people accuse him of ulterior motives, and without any basis or real evidence. Just empty headed haters. Is your life so empty, that you have to put this kind of negative attacks on someone you don't even know.

• Who gives a fuck if he od'd on heroin at one point. What are you, the D.A.R.E spokes person. Are some kind of christian crusader. I'll bet you're flawless.

• You speak utter nonsense priscilla. Just baseless hatred. I think you're the liar. Since there's no risk or consequence to what you say on here, you can say anything. You could say your Trent's cousin, or exgirlfriend, and then spew whatever lie you want. Your opinion is without any worth. You're just a common citizen, so why don't you go gossip and spread hate among your own boring crowd of nobodies. What goes on in Trent's and Mariqueen's lives is none of your business. You certainly don't have the right to judge. That's what sucks about the internet, everybody gets to give their opinion and harsh criticism despite how ignorant, or unqualified they are to do so.

• It's good to hear a credible opinion, and in this case, fact as well. People talk about Mariqueen like as if they know her, and bash her harshly. I don't understand why they choose her as someone to attack. Their lives must be very empty. They expect trent and mariqueen to live up to fabricated standards that these people on here don't even live up to. I think they have a problem with people who are better than them. I have nothing but best wishes for Trent and Mariqueen, in both their personal and professional lives. I'm a big fan of Trent's artful work, and Mariqueen is a nice new addition to the work that Trent will present in the future. Hopefully your email gets a notification to my reply, as I realize these posts are mostly 7months old.

• Honestly, everything you say in your post has no basis. Just an obnoxious opinionated comment for the sake of spewing your shallow opinion. You speak of these two as if you're some kind of respected critic. Your opinion has no worth. Do you actully spend time hating semi-famous people and finding boards to express your self righteous opinion. Who the hell are you to set some kind of standard for others to live up to. I have a link posted at the bottom of this page in another comment I posted. It has a pick from july of 2010, showing Mariqueen obviously pregnant. As for you criticizing the new project album, It's of it's own genre. And the music of the album is what dominates. The lyrics are there to add to it, not define it. Any reasonably perceptive person could realize that. The song you refer to is comparing human behavior to that of a parasite. It's not about parasites literally. It's art, and is expressive, with metaphores and symbolism. Do you know for a fact that she has had plastic surgery? I think you're just spewing nonsense, because there's no risk to anything you say. The internet is filled with junk rhetoric like your comment. People giving strong opinions who are NOT worthy of being heard.

• Look at the link I posted. The picture without a doubt shows a pregnant Mariqueen, The photo was taken in july 17th 2010. Such hatred channeled toward people who never did anything to any of you personally. It's your right to hate someone, but your hate is baseless, and bitter tripe. I hate a greater number of musical artists, than ones I like. But I don't go on pages like this and spew nonsense over it. I can't see how anyone could harbor such hatred for Trent. He's never sold himself out for the sake of popularity. He doesn't write for the mainstream, which is obvious. He's told his former record company to go fuck itself. He doesn't compromise on his work to become embraced by the shallow mainstream. His work reflects the negative side of the human condition. He's mastered his craft of ambient instrumentals, and expressing negativity through artful expression. No he's not a hardcore metal head, and I'm glad he's not. He's an intelligent visionary, who's creativity progresses as he gets older and wiser. And fuck everyone who can't appreciate that.

• It's now feb 4th 2011. While there is no news of Trent's new child, because they are obviously private people, here is a link which has a picture of Trent and wife Mariqueen in july 17th 2010. If this picture doesn't put to rest the uncertainty of whether there's a child inside her or not, then nothing will. She's obviously pregnant in this photo. Her belly is excessively swollen, as well as her breasts, and her face appears to be more rounded. This is a private couple. All the talk about this pregnancy being a ruse or publicity stunt is completely unfounded, and unnecessary. Just hate rhetoric. If you personally don't like his work, then just move on. Dwelling on empty hatred like this is pointless. I hate Ac/dc, and the lead singer from Creed, but I don't go around the internet spewing hate talk about it. Here is the link if you're still in doubt over Reznor being a father. http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/48986257.html

• Exactly, who is covering this? Which is exactly why its absurd to think they would fake a pregnancy for attention. They know they're not hugely famous, so no one is going to fret over their pregnancy. Trent knows he's not even close to a level of fame as say, John Travolta. This is all empty tripe coming from bitter people. I'll bet your eye for talent is shit. Trent nevers writes for the mainstream, so what would give you the idea that he's grasping at straws for success. The HTDA ep is not written to be popular, if it was, then it would be shit, as most of the superficial popular music of today is. I'd love to hear what you think is talent. I'd be shocked if you actually mentioned an artist worthy of acknowledgment. Trent Reznor has a visionary artistic talent, and a genuine integrity for his work that is extremely rare in the music world today. You wouldn't know true talent if it stabbed you in the eye.

• My wife didn't even begin to show until her sixth month. She is petite, and She didn't starve herself. So to think there's no baby because Mariqueen wasn't showing at four or five months is a show of ignorance on the topic. And all this talk about publicity from everyone, seems to be bitter rhetoric coming from haters. First of all, Trent and Mariqueen are flawed human beings just like anyone. Who says they have to live up to some kind of noble standard. If they did appear mostly flawless, I would find that ingenuine. So what if they want to reach a higher success. Unless you're rich or sucking off of some proverbial teet, everyone of us gets our ass out of bed to make money. Whether you do what you love or not, it's all about money. Everything you see made profit for someone at some point. At least Trent doesn't compromise on the content of his work. He doesn't write for the mainstream. He doesn't write to be popular on your local pop station. I could imagine he would want to reach a broader audience. Artists create art so people can enjoy it. An artist can feel more gratified when his work reaches more people, as long as the work was genuine, and honest to the artist's essence. I doubt they faked a pregnancy. First of all, they're not hugely famous, so there's no reason to think they would hope to attract any relevant attention as a result of it. It's funny of how the content of Trent's work has brought such feelings of animosity toward him. People are afraid of negativity. They'd rather drink in the club, listening to whatevers popular, and behave much like those on that horrid show "Jersey Shore". People behave as though optimism is popular. They're so far from the reality of our existence, and of the human condition. The mainstream population is so shallow, living is there shiny fabricated reality.

• I consider myself a music snob. And I love the new ep. The music is fantastic as it is the work of Trent. The lyrics are so/so. Some good, some are simple. She has a good voice. She certainly doesn't sound terrible. I could think of plenty of popular mainstream bands that still doesn't measure up to it. The first couple of times I heard the new ep, only one song grabbed my attention "the spaces in between", with it's dreadful seriousness. But after giving the ep a chance, I now enjoy every song. The musical aspect of it, is a big reason of why I love it. It has a different ambience to it than what Trent had done previously. I have no problem with giving her a chance. She's made quite a transition from the band she came from. She's going in the right direction. I find hippy music irritating, and unrealistic. Singing about happy things, the goodness of people, and living in the light is simply running away from the dreadful reality that is existence as a whole. And popular music of our western culture like new rock and hip hop covers a shallow materialistic aspect, and lacks real creativity.

• First of all, you don't know how close they are with family, and if they wanted to wait until a certain point in time to tell them. They don't live near family, so it may be safe to say, they don't have contact often. Not to mention, to break the news to fans. Just because someone does something different from what is conventional doesn't mean that there's furtive intentions. It's so small of people to assume such things. People don't realize, how different other people are in their daily endeavors from each other. And for pregnancy, Not everyone shows in their first five months. Accusing someone of faking a pregnancy when they're going to be covered at some level of media, is absurd. Just visceral hatred. Honestly, I don't get the hatred for Trent Reznor. He's got more artistic talent, and professional integrity than 90% of his peers in the music/art business. Everybody out there is all about the money. At least Trent doesn't compromise on his work just for the sake of being embraced by the shallow minded mainstream. The shallow minded music lovers who wouldn't know true art and talent even if it decapitated them. Many of which seem to be on this page posting useless hateful comments. I'd like these people to list who they like in music. And then we'll compare. That would actually be fun for me. Simpletons!

• It's funny how everything Trent reznor does is a publicity stunt to you vacuous haters. Just utter tripe coming from you. And about your sisters bump. Everyone's body is different. Do you think you're an expert on pregnancy because your sister was showing at five months. Some people don't show until they're six months. You're trying too hard in finding meaningless shit to complain about. And your comment on their personal habbits, "she smokes and drinks". Who the hell are you, to create standards for everyone to live up to. You do realize that people are real, and not just props in your head to fill up your little pathetic world around you, don't you? Wow, I should be amazed. I'm replying to the only perfect human on earth. Surely you must not have any flaws, since you're so superior to anyone who doesn't try to be a simple clean conservative.

• First of all, Trent's work has only gotten better as he ages. Trent started not long before the early ninetys, so your claim of being a one time fan seems unconvincing. If you don't consider Trent's work as being art, then you certainly don't know what true musical art is. His work is all about expressions of the human condition, mostly on the negative side. He certainly DOESN'T write for the masses, the shallow mainstream. His work is never shallow. His lyrical content is strong, but the ambient sounds, and noise illustrate the mood, and the character of the song or ambient piece, sometimes better than actual lyrics. Many of his instrumentals are more expressive than any lyrical piece. A world class artist of sound, who has mastered his craft. To call him a corporate media tool is absurdly inaccurate. There's nothing wrong with using any media outlet to express yourself, and allow yourself to be defined in an accurate light, so not to be misunderstood to the people who know of you. Hate rhetoric, rumors and simple misunderstandings can distort the truth, and taint someones reputation. Trent's honesty can be offensive at times, but his honesty should be admired. Trent has a no compromise attitude for his work. People may hate him for his essence, but without question, he is genuine, and maintains an integrity you don't see often in the music business. You, and thousands of others seem to assume Trent's intentions over everything he says or does. When ever someone says something controversial through some form of media, people call it a publicity stunt, or a ploy for attention. Perhaps its' just someone expressing themselves in a brutally honest fashion. And having disregard for the antagonism that will follow. Or maybe your one of those "indie snobs" who feels whenever an artist/musician gets radio play for a piece they've done, then they're a corporate whore. As soon as the public is able to hear it and even like it, then you immediately dismiss it as ingenuine. In some, even many cases you might be right, if the actual circumstances are such, but you sell a lot of people short by dismissing them. It's all about the intentions of the artist, not the reaction in the public, or the record company's methods of getting the work out there. As for your comment about their baby and parenting, that's just hateful tripe, and is a personal attack. I'd love to hear what your favorite music is. I'd love to judge it, and decide if it's simple, and lacking creativity as most of the music world does. Perhaps I'm jumping to assumptions, but I wonder if it even has half the artistic quality, creativity, and expressive talent that is the work of Trent Reznor. I wonder if it's shallow minded heavy metal shit, or some form of indie pop. And if you Criticize Trent for trying to make lots of money by getting his name into more ears, then I think you have an erroeous perspective on art. Artists create their art, not only because it's a ardent passion within them, but because they want people to see it, or hear it. And making money doing what you love is the most important thing you can do in this life. Because of the unpopular gloomy nature of Trent's work, he sometimes feels like that proverbial "tree falling in the woods". And then people criticize him for trying to reach more people. He's told his old record company to go fuck itself, and started his own company. He's given lots of his music for free via internet download. Its sounds as though you simply hate TR, and no matter what he endeavors to accomplish, you and people like you, will attack him from multiple aspects. Hate him all you want, but your criticism of his work has no basis other than empty hatred. If you reply back to my comment, tell me what music you favor. We'll see how it measures up.

• Mariqueen’s boyfriend Francisten, who she lived with for 6 years, used blackmail/extortion against Tila Tequila over a sex tape he filmed before he started dating/living with Mariqueen Maandig. Can’t wait till he releases Mariqueen’s sex tapes. Wonder what Mariqueen thought of her boyfriend Francis having a sex tape with another woman in his apartment….. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/5878014/tila_tequilas_sextape_battle_sexuality.html

• Hoe do you you know what they do? They guy's becoming a father, I don't think it will effect his music. Shut the fuck up and stop bitching. Go listen to some Ministry.

• How dare you people talking smack about Trent like that. None of you know what his life is like, and none of you deserve to. He's a great musician, and is living his own life now. Get used to it. If you're a true fan, you'll let him.

• Many moons ago I was a NIN fan briefly till I realized that Reznor was a corporate media tool who always talks about "art" but has yet to produce any "art". His music has been pretty bad since the early 90s. Now that he married this talentless porn bimbo, it just verifies my opinion about him is correct... media tool who will verbally spew anything for a buck and some attention. This Social Network soundtrack sounds like bothersome noise when separated from the film, painful even to listen to. If there is a baby, I feel sorry for the kid having parents like Trent Reznor & Mariqueen.

• You lying idiot. Trent Reznor OD in London from heroin in 1999. http://www.ninwiki.com/Trent_Reznor http://crazyjaneski.typepad.com/crazy_jane/2005/04/yes_ok_its_anot.html

• A lot of haters on here, you people fret over such petty shit. If you hate Trent, then just say it, don't pretend you actually have a reason to hate over these superficial things you mention. For the people who don't like the new HTDA project, well you was probably expecting something different from what was the result of the album. If you don't like this genre of music, then you probably shouldn't have listened to it to begin with. It was basically a concept album of what is to come. It involves the same creative process (musically) as anything Trent has ever done. Trent Reznor is a creative visionary. He's more of an actual artist, rather than the common musician. Avant garde. He has more talent, and creativity than the great majority of so called music artists we know today. AC/DC has sold way more albums than Trent, but Trent is certainly more talented, complex, and artistically creative than acdc, or any other band well known to our culture. I understand that you can't recognize talent, you're conditioned with the main stream pop culture. I'll bet at least one of you haters watch the show "Jersey Shore". If so, then Your comments didn't deserve a response.

• cool to see him have a kid

• you dumb fucks... the garbage you are writing is ridiculous.. ex heroin?! i dont think so buddy... you dont know him or his lady so don't pretend too... you have NO RIGHT even have an opinion because your so fucking lame... lame excuse for a human.. all of you... burn

• T reznor is nothing short of a genius... stupid people shut your mouthes and be happy for him... he finaly found love in a big way. Move on please

• Did you see the one of her getting her breast sucked? Not sure if it's the same guy she's blowen.

• Hey... seriously, former-NIN guys? Trent is (IS!!!) every bit of five foot seven. Especially back in the day... you should have been true to your integrity and dignity and SQUASHED that pouting faggot if he wronged you. I don't get it. At least make him pay in some respect. Let some people know. If that letter's legitimate, I'm pretty shocked. I wonder the stories some of those guys could tell...

• most of these people are assfaces! i am very happy for the both of you! i am a costume designer that needs work......have been a fan since 1989................ps. i am vey proud of how to destroy angels! piss on people that dislike you...i see gray and lace!

• Sorry the "oh they are so private blah blah blah" falls on its face. Mariqueen tweeted about their sex life-Reznor posted AngieZ. address then whines when people posted his address. Then he goes after some chicks on a private message board largely unheard of by most. My guess is the reason they are silent about the baby's birth is because: IT NEVER HAPPENED! The NIN trolls can suck it- Love, "Barabara"

• Trent Reznor is the biggest fraud in Hollywood. It's not surprising that he did a fake marriage with an illegal alien. First, they tell the NIN fans Mariqueen is 23 then when fans look her up, she's really 29, then when a background check is done, Mariqueen is 33 years old. How is it in the US, that someone reaches the age of 33 without a real job and never paid taxes? Illegal alien.

• People on the internet are so fuckin negative, lol Congrats to them

• The baby must be 2 or 3 weeks old and Trent has done a baby announcement. I won my bet, the baby is not his.

• Like most others I feel like she just got guaranteed child support!

• Like most others I feel like she just got guaranteed child support!

• I didn't look pregnant at all until I was about 6-7 months along and then it went POP!

• Good luck to ya. From the sound of it anyone who's been in his path need's it.Manson's shaking his head now saying,i told ya,nobody listens.

• @Zapper: I am someone who was once closely associated with Reznor. Thanks for posting the letter. It's convinced me all the more that I'm not crazy afterall. It makes it easier to let these toxic, cancerous feelings go. I do wish Reznor well, though... it's an upward climb trying to generate anything positive from my experiences with him, but it's important not to feed the downward spiral machine. There will always be fuel in that fire. Besides, I'm no karma police and I can't help but wonder if my own ruined karma gave me a good lashing by placing him in my life's path. Cheers to new life.

• Wow ,that is one hell of a story. Diden't Gary Numan have a story to tell recently to.

• http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/14639/86430 You mean this one?

• Anyone see Rolling Stone? Even they said Maandig and married life doesen't exactly sound like bliss. Trent's music doesen't sound like a happily married man.

• "And in there ST premier pic when she looked pregnant, she told her friend there wouldn't be any little Trent's in the union because he was snipped." Any proof of this statement in print or online? Personally I think he is having a massive mid-life crisis and is in a hurry to have the family thing checked off his score card of life. He wants to get back at all his exes, the popular crowd that rejected him, his fans, ex-fans, label, etc. and everyone else he perceives as ever crossing him. What a small man he has become....

• Yes you can. You can stick any shape pillow to look like that. And in there ST premier pic when she looked pregnant, she told her friend there woulden't be any little Trent's in the union because he was snipped.

• Nice job guys, you really had me going for a second there. http://www.zimbio.com/Mariqueen+Maandig/articles/vTIYMOGTGN2/Parents+Trent+Reznor+Mariqueen+Maandig She's really preggers! There's no way you can photoshop a baby bump that big. I agree she seems like a dumb ho with no musical talent whatsoever, but I guess you can't judge a book by it's Playboy pictures, can you? And who cares, anyway? Can't wait for the baby! Eee! A mini Treznor!

• Trent's a loser and always was a loser. You girls just bought his bullshit. He used you and when you were no longer of use, he tells you to go slit your wrists. And then you are surprised he married a dumb stripper who thinks she's going to be famous. rofl.

• Trent may have lost most of his musical ability and taste but it still doesn�t change the greatness that he gave us in the past. In life sometimes you lose your talents. From his music to the way he dresses he is a different person and I think that is what is making everyone so mad here. The trent we all loved and cherished is older now and just not as cool. I know I am the same way I was some much more creative and had different tastes 10 yrs ago. Just put it this way,there is nothing to be jealous about she is not getting the Trent we fell in love with she is getting the older and different version who can�t top anything after The Downward Spiral. I still like him just for what he gave up in the past and wish them the best but people do change and just don�t get too upset, this guy hated LA and now lives there and is even marrying into LA talk about making a complete change. As for the baby in October we wil all know but again it doesn�t the matter the Trent that onces was is now just a recording and image, he is not real anymore.. SAD�

• Has any one seen Genstars twitter,putting pics up again. What makes her think her fat legs are any better.Her and manho are ugly skanks.

• To those feeling bad for F10, He didn't mind the mean girls' antics when he was on the inside watching them tear down and into the "nobodies". He was stupid for thinking that social climbers had a use for someone at the bottom of the L.A. celebrity ladder. Now he can empathize, so lesson learned.

• Outside of the butthurt, the schadenfreude lovers, and rubberneckers that get their jollies posting on very minor gossip blogs on work breaks, etc, no one cares. Spend 24hrs on blogs that actually trend on Google and these two don't register and haven't since the engagement. Their marriage didn't get as much interest as the engagement, and HTDA even less than that. The photo of her pregs probably sold for and insultingly low price given who Reznor is, and it ended up on a low-traffic pregnant celebrity blog. They obviously wanted the pic out there...didn't get her whinging on Twitter about not having time to put lipgloss on. There were paps there when she went in so why would they be gone when she came out? That place is second to the Ivy in photo-stalkers hanging out. Plus, who doesn't reapply in the ladies before they leave if they're uptight like that about lipgloss, especially knowing that cameras are out there? She's reminds me of those type of chicks that are only interested in what they're man is because that's what good girlfriends/wives do to please their man.

• @Mary Thanks for clarifying. Now that you mentioned it I do remember that tweet and how the NIN detractors on Twitter jumped all over that particular tweet. @anonymous sarcasm Thanks for the laugh. I think many of the previous posts were sarcastic about a photo spread and that tone went totally over @Reznor's going down head. I know I still follow this situation because of its train wreck like quality. BTW anyone else notice how on the two WWD articles pages of comments keep disappearing? One day there is 95+ pages and a week later the page count is in the 80s. Nice to see someone is staying employed in this economy by editing a tabloid comments section. LOL

• Ha RS could care less about Trent and his bimbo. Talent and grace she is lacking. HTDA is also lacking that's why he left it.And the only books she's reading are the one's he tell's her to.Dream team they are not.

• "RS gave HTDA a 2.5 out of 5 points and call it sleepy (=boring)..." That's because Rolling Stone Magazine is just jealous of Mariqueen's grace, talent and intellect (her favorite book is no longer SEX by Madonna) and wishes Trent had married them (probably would have been true in the 90s. They're just a bunch of butthurt fan-mags that can't deal with the most awesomest dream team of music,fashion, and internet sales innovation that ever did grace the world with their presence. Suck it losers!

• Not sure when she made the comment but was sometime after he exited her from WIG. F10 was tired of the wait and she was dumped because of the drama. Ppl were going to the shows just to throw things at her and he said forget it.I don't think this was suppose to last so long and did. She was a lot more fun to read about and watch with WIG.She was cuter more herself thats for sure. Her and Trent don't go well together.There age is a big deal,look at her now acting like shes reading and watching things he watches,she really has no interest in those things.

• Rolling Stone won't touch a photospread of Reznor dumbass. RS gave HTDA a 2.5 out of 5 points and call it sleepy (=boring). Keep wishing dumbasses.

• @Anonymous says: "I'm sensing a cover and photospread of Mariqueen coming out in the near future...possibly with husband and baby bump featured." Doubtful those two could score a cover photo-but I expect you are right. Maybe Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, or Spinner will splash a glossy photo of Trent with his hand on Mariqueen's abdomen and both will be beaming pure joy. Would be a good photo to drop right before this Face Book movie is released. Let's see how predictable these two will bee....

• @Mary I remember a tweet of Mariqueen's from maybe March of 09 saying: "my boyfriend is giving me permission to have a fictional romance". Is this the same tweet you're referring to or is there a more recent one? My only question is: Why? It's so much fuss and bother. It's so much easier to believe they really are in a relationship with each other, but I understand why so many think it is a sham. And who knows, they may be right?

• Does anyone remember another interesting twit that she deleted.."I did this for us" Huumm F10 maybe? Im gonna bet yes.

• BEST post yet goes to Pirate J! Ha!!

• Argh! A couple of scurvy dogs they are! Best to leave them be so we are not infected with their disease! No treasure or truth is worth listening to their Siren's Song! Argh...off to drink grog and chase wenches....

• Blushing... PULEASE. Really? So all of the haters wanted to get with them? Drinking the kool-aid are we? These two have created HATE. You cannot treat your fans like he did and expect them all to not hate him or her. And why would you bash Lisa?? She was nice and talented and deserved to be where she was. Nice comparison there by the way. And I will pray for YOU as well. I will pray that people like you get a clue and perhaps gain a little more knowledge on WHOM they are speaking about before doing so. "I don't know much about the Reznors..."

• Sheesh! I have never heard such negativity in my life, maybe only about Britney Spears. But a lot of folks go online and become delusional, meds are a good thing people, take 'em. Mariqueen is ugly? Seriously? Trent's career is over, oh right because you have spoken, and you are all-powerful and know everything about the music industry. I don't know much about the Reznors but I do know the haters never stood a chance to get with them as a lover friend or anything, neither did I. Lenny Kravitz is hot and successful but I wasn't bashing Lisa Bonet back in the day! Some of you really need counseling or you'll get ulcers from the hate. Shoot I did, and I am stress-free! I pray for you.

• Maybe the baby can join HTDA and it can be a family affair. Baby will come out attached to a keyboard! Congrats and have a healthy baby. Enjoy your new family!

• Exactly. This whole story has lie written all over it. I don't think there together and when he aborted there band it pissed her off. After all she did for him. Most all comments of hate is directed at her. She made it clear motherhood wasn't in her future but she had no where else to go with this.What a shame.

• The two old men baby sitting, add that to your dream team,never going to happen. But keep wishing.

• I remember the housekeeper and cart wheels post too. That's why she's a golddigger and Trent fell for it. And one of the reason why his previous fans hate her and now him. Mariqueen was tweeting lots of celebs trying to make the scene and all ignored her except for Trent. Trent's stupid, he married a vain woman who is using him. She loves the money not the man. Her tweet today: @genstarchild we'll go back together soon & have the dreamy husband team watch the ill baby team while we tag team all over that store <3. about 5 hours ago via Twitter for iPhone in reply to genstarchild She's talking about going shopping at an luxury Paris shop. How can you be sure your partner loves you when all she talks about is spending your money? Poor Trent, he's an old rich fool who is killing his career and decimated his fanbase. Don't be surprised that Mariqueen is watching this comment section.

• I'm sensing a cover and photospread of Mariqueen coming out in the near future...possibly with husband and baby bump featured.

• I do recall Q wanting a housekeeper, anyone who would clean her Apt. She was looking for a volunteer, and then out of the blue, she was gaga over the fact that Trent had commented to WIG, and that cart wheels were in order.Now,if her and Trent already were hooked up, and she knew she'd be in the big house,why make that request.She was talking about the need for help right before the Trent contacted WIG remark. If she met up with Trent and planned on pretending to have just met on twitter,beings they planned this, then why make a production of needing help knowing soon there sham would start and she'd be in the big house.Some of the things she talked of on twitter don't make since, if he had indeed contacted her awhile back for a date.It got out of hand and as hard headed as he is wouldn't back out.

• Thanks for your input. I went over and read/reread the comments section on Eyescoop after reading the comments here and even with the monitoring it is overwhelmingly negative. Contrary to what some have been saying, the negativity Mariqueen generated isn't the kind that can be used to market one's self. Courtney Love used the negativity she generated to promote herself but she had an amazing album to use as a shield against criticism. Mariqueen doesn't have great music to buffer the negativity; she can't say, "You can trash me, but my music is amazing.". Her work in WIG and HTDA doesn't reach the level of critical acclaim as Live Through This. I'll say right now that I am not at all a fan of Courtney Love, just using her as an example of hated rock star wife. What is generating so much interest is that Trent Reznor has been so adept, even in his youth,at handling his image in the media and this trainwreck stuns a lot of people. I don't believe that this is about Mariqueen, she's just an easier target than having to get real about who they're really angry at, and why.

• F10 can't get kicked out of his own band,he's just taking time off for writing and looking for a new singer. He said so before Gen ever approached him,he explained why he wasn't going to be on twitter.F10 has known exactly what's going on. When her and Trent went on there first "mystery date" she was calling everyone looking for directions to a place Trent already new how to get to. Setting the stage and im sure f10 new.I think there all in on it and Q got so mad and attacked him on twitter because what info he did give out was to much info. She looks stupid enough having Trent saying HTDA is over and it did not work out as planned. If he started on the Soundtrack awile back she must have known HTDA was history. He never mentioned on his web picking up where he left off .Im with Missy these two look like strangers next to each other,him with his hand on your shoulder. How many women has he stood next to, to get a pic taken in that same pose.

• I applaud the commenters on this article. there are some good questions which means the readers are thinking & analyzing. A professional publicist was hired to obtain media coverage for HTDA not to make-over the Reznor's fashion sense or to do coaching on what to say to the press or to clean up any public disasters they may get themselves into. There is a difference. Coaching, make-overs, and public clean up are additional services that are more time consuming and expensive. WWD Eyescoop section is the web-only content not found in the daily paper. The Eyescoop section does not promote new product but highlights how fashion intercedes into other public areas like music. Courtney Love was highlighted in Eyescoop this week and doesn't plug her new cd. As for the content of what Mariqueen said to Tara for the article, you have to look at Mariqueen's life story. Mariqueen was not born in the US, only has a high school degree, no corporate or job experience, and not well traveled. It is not surprising her conversation is stunted, contradictory, evasive and somewhat silly. It's unrealistic to expect her to be more than she is. Rarely does a publicist ask for an interview to be re-done or requests a re-write of an entire article once it's been written. Not to be derogatory, a publicist for HTDA is not the same as a publicist for Madonna.

• Thanks for mentioning that odd pap pic at Madeos. Yeah Reznor dresses way down, but didn't he do the same for the Star Trek premier? But this is supposed to be Mariqueen's pregnancy style setter pic and she seems caught off guard and looks the wrong way? Why? He seemed ready,she didn't. Why didn't someone get another, better picture? Maybe there wasn't one, maybe she was serious when she told WWD she didn't want a pregnancy pic to go public. Anyone here know what happened after that pic was taken? The whole HTDA thing seems very amateurish.

• I figured that story was pitched to the author of the WWD piece but I'm convinced more than ever that there's two different scripts being played out here, TR's and Q's. TR would have had someone he was paying to pitch their new image smarten Q up when it came to interviewing. A professional would have had her prepared with a cover story for how they met and why they married, her lack of formal training, education, and experience in the fashion and music industry, and would have never allowed so many self-contradictory statements in such a small piece on a blog. That article was a publicist fiasco if they indeed had one pitch it, and they should be fired. You never let a client be so ill-prepared and go an entire interview without Plugging Her G****** Music That Has Just Been Released For Sale! Either everyone has gotten really stupid about business in the Reznor Circle or amateurs are running the show. Finally, no client should be seen at a known "see and be seen" restaurant like Madeos, where paparazzi hangout to get easy celebrity shots, dressed like they were,the woman didn't even face the camera. You go with the intention and appearance of someone who is looking to make a statement that they've arrived. F'n fiasco, people.

• Are they friends only online or in real life as well? Some of the Twitter trolls said Francis Ten and Zapper were an item. I find this hard to believe. This whole thing must have really affected Francis Ten because he was talking about moving away from LA right before he deleted his account. I always wondered if Genstarchild going to Francis Ten was a ruse to set him up for attack on all sides from the trolls. I do feel badly for him.

• To A Friend- Wow, good info, thanks! I have a lot more respect for the WWD blog author now, seems she was just doing her job. However, my mind is blown by the fact that a professional publicist was involved. Seriously, MQ comes off as a huge idiot in that piece and the photo choice is baffling. I guess there is only so much a professional can do, MQ must be more than a bit willful. If MQs aspiration is to become a gothy fashion trendsetter, then that is just more evidence that she's not very self aware. So Few Questions- That tumblr made me sad. F10 really is just trying to help out and obviously gets nothing but shite for it with the ensuing drama. The fact that genstarchild asked F10 to interceed on her behalf is something F10 should have questioned but didn't. I mean, I only Twitter stalked her for a minute but that was long enough to note her penchant for putting up a tough girl front. She appeared to LOVE any and all crap that came her way so to think she broke down and begged someone for help is very weird. I agree with you, F10 has been screwed over. I was just surprised that some of the WWD comments seemed to indicate that he was in league with the trolls. It doesn't appear that way at all from those messages. So now I can assume that those particular comments are from genstarchild herself, that sounds like the kind of twist she would put on the whole affair. As for why some Twitter accounts are shut down for trolling and others not, there doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason. Twitter must not have super firm guidelines on what constitutes harmful posting and what doesn't. I have to assume it's up to an individual Twitter rep's discretion and that's why we see some really odious people stay up while someone else gets shut down. To Roadcrew- genstarchild is truly a piece of work, isn't she? It's unfortunately F10 wasn't smart enough to walk away :( As for MQ dropping F10 immediately when contacted by TR, that's pretty much what some trolls have been contending all along re; her goldigger instincts. I don't agree that F10 and zapper are friends though. F10 is being friendly in those exchanges but he's just trying to secure his end of the deal brohan style. And if genstarchild asked F10 to get involved specifically with zapper, then of course he followed zapper and not the other way around. As for being played, I feel that way, yeah. I've been following as much of this crap in blog comments, Twitter, tumblr, etc. as possible because of the car wreck like quality of it all from all sides. It's mind boggling. Is this really the way things work now in the 'new media' age? Some of the WWD comments were MQ sympathizers talking about how all the trolling on random blogs was increasing MQs celebrity profile and making her seem more intriguing and charismatic. What?! People saying she is a goldigging sham who is faking a marriage, a baby, and a singing career equals positive hype for her? Is notoriety really the goal now? Because I thought that was just the dumb way someone like a Lohan or Gosselin type figure thought about it. I mean if the goal of all of this was to get me to buy an album or even d/l a free EP, I didn't do it. If the goal was just to have me pay attention, then I guess I have. But I don't think better of TR or MQ for it, in fact they are looking all too human. Genstarchild comes off as a black hole of crazy bitchery. The anti-MQ trolls, while apparently being right on target with a lot of their barbs, too often resort to racist attacks that undermine any legitimate points they make. The pro TR trolls just look like hateful mind controlled idiots who haven't examined their mommy issues.

• Twitter smackdown hilarious!!! Francis= innocent bystander. Not sure if he was booted by WIG cause it's his band. Q trolled Francis & other WIG accounts with anon accounts. This zapper chap was dm by Francis cause it's in the posted dm people. Genstarchild was fanning the flames & trying to get famous off of Trent's back! lol. Francis should've walked away from the drama queenery of Q & Gen cause he was f*cked over by Q when she just up & broke up w/him after Trent contacted her. They dated for yrs! Whoever said Trent, Q & Genstar are not vindictive, you don't know 'em!!! Trent's famous for being vindictive & he married a broad who is just like him. Genstar needs to get fired people cause she's a slacker & known for mouthing off. Genstar even mouthed off at the airlines after 9/11 & made the news about it. lol. Francis & the zapper chap are friends people, get a clue. Francis followed zapper not the other way around. You girls are being played by this drama queenery of Trent, Q & Gen.

• To the last few commenters here- I know the author of the wwd.com blog post, Tara Bonet-Black very well. The story was "pitched" to wwd.com by a professional publicist paid by Trent Reznor. Tara didn't know Mariqueen and only had one telephone conversation with her. The publicist proof read the final version of the blog post and approved it. The photo from the wwd.com blog was given to wwd by the publicist from the Reznors. It appears that the Reznors are trying to cultivate a new market for their pop music and leaving the NIN market/fans behind. My guess is, that Mariqueen is pursuing a fashion industry career in addition to the music. Not sure if the fashion industry career will work out since she does not have a college degree nor any fashion experience. Her fashion style is not unique, mainly from what is currently in style and trendy. Mariqueen's height and age is another factor since is short and older. Magazine fashion layouts need height and a fresh face. I hope this clears up some of the confusion.

• But did F10 really get kicked out of his band or did his most recent singer just leave? On WIG's website he said the band was going to be taking some time off to do some writing. Something else must have been going on behind the scenes. F10 has been trolled before and just ignored them. Why quit Twitter now? On Twitter someone posted a bunch of PMs that were allegedly exchanged between F10 and @zapperwashere. http://sludger.tumblr.com/ The story I heard was Zapper was trying to get GenStarchild (Mariqueen's friend)fired for tweeting from work. GenStarchild went to F10 for help. (Why who knows?) So F10 asked Zapper to leave her alone. Thing was in exchange F10 was supposed to get several troll accounts removed from Twitter for Zapper. F10 couldn't do it. So F10 then gets trolled by Zapper and the troll accounts F10 was supposed to remove, plus several new trolls that sprang up. I agree; I feel F10 has gotten tooled over trying to help a former friend. It's sad. What I also don't understand is why some accounts are suspended by Twitter, yet others that troll and post pictures, addresses, etc. are allowed to exist? Can anyone explain this to me? I block anyone on Twitter that trolls for either side but it doesn't seem to matter.

• To anony @2:24 To say the match up of MQ and WWD is counter intuitive would be kind, lol! Whatever the 'assist' consisted of, it would have been better used to promote someone and something else to say the least. MQ did not know how to make the best use of the opportunity and despite the author's rebuttal I don't think she liked MQ very much. I'm in no way a professional, just an observer who is surprised at how ineptly this is all being done. To Missy, I am not in the fake marriage camp. I can see why one exists though. Now, I don't think they have a traditional union which is why the troll stalkers can't find records of a marriage license. I think TR would deem a standard marriage too bourgeois so my money is on 'spiritual' ceremony and domestic agreement. Isn't that what they do now in LA when they marry outside their tax bracket? I'm sure the baby is real too if only because MQ seems way too vain to put on a fake bump and look big for no reason. Now is it all rushed and just weird? Yep. To me it gives creedence to the rebound comments. I think whoever said he has always liked women like MQ, ie. loud, trashy, anti-intellectual, fashion focused and with delusions of diva-dom is probably right. It would have been nice if he could have warned us in advance so we didn't spend time in comment sections of blogs trying to figure out WTF but whatever. At any rate, it seems one innocent bystander has been hurt in all this and that is F10. Supposedly per the comments on WWD he may have been kicked from his band because someone thinks he's linked to the trolls? From what I've seen of both F10 and the trolls, I just can't believe that. He was trolled just as much as MQ at first! If anything, I think I may have read one comment where he tried to placate one troll to get them off his back but that's what semi-reasonable people end up doing. He comes across as dumb but sweet so for him to suffer due to crap with MQ is completely unfair. I know someone else said he is guilty of just as much drama as the rest but based on what little I've seen I don't think he's vindictive or clever enough to roll that way. It's just sad.

• I wondered too why not use Pink Trent? Guaranteed positive spin there. As for: "The only two reasonable explanations for this mess are that 1) he's just too cheap and/or proud to hire a professional publicist or manager to create a unified presentation and help corral and train her or 2) she's being setup to fail." I think it is a combination of the two. Notice how once he left his label he was less mysterious? hhhmmm... Me thinks it was a do it yourself job there. Although I never bought into the "its a sham marriage" camp is there anyway this product of LA star culture could ever win? She has been set up to fail at every left turn. If she wasn't so foul, I might feel sorry for her.

• To @So Many Questions: I feel the same way about this mess. I'm really not convinced that they are legally married nor that Mariqueen is pregnant. The timing has just been such great luck for them (too impossible to believe...) a random tweet, a magical date, then BAM! love, 9 days later > engagement, 8 months later > wedding, 4 months later > pregnant while releasing debut band & EP! Not to mention baby birth's on 10/10/10. Does someone smell a rat? This is a man who spent 7/8 years to write one album & 45 yrs. to marry someone he barely knows from Twitter??? If you think about it... she's not special in any way. No education, no real talent > no voice nor knowledge of how to play an instrument, sexy? not compared to many LA women.

• Gods girls chicks are really into all of the things WWD promotes aren't they? Someone at Q's level doesn't hit their radar, even on a blog, without an assist. My professional opinion.

• The way he looked at the Webby's compared to latest pic = not good. His fans don't affect his sobriety only he does. not Twitter/not saying/giving the chance for it to be deleted/account has existed for almost a year/only mentioned it because of blatant lie that was told in the last 3 months/ some would be happy and some would be disappointed if it was discovered. I've known about it since Sept 2009 but figured he knew damn well what he was getting by then so why fuel the trolls fires.

• Why aren't they using Pink Trent to release all this baby info? Why 'shop TRs face so hard for the HDTA promo photos that we assume he's had a lift when one little pap photo can show nothing has changed? Why does she look so pissy in the pap photo, is she really that upset to be photographed while 'fat' and preggo? If Mark Eting is right and she is being 'restrained' on her Facebook and Twitter from being her normal loud self, aren't her friends concerned? Why isn't she on the same page as TR on how to promote and release info that now affects both of them and a baby? He is after all the one with the 20+ year career. Why isn't he grooming her a little so that interviews don't turn into that amateurish mess on WWD? Why on earth would they give a blog connected to a big fashion publication a promo photo of her slumped on a couch in a sloppy Tshirt ackwardly holding a synth? She's spent so much time yammering about her incredible fashion sense and style and then has WWD publish a photo of her lounging around like she hasn't showered in 3 days. You would think these two Mensa members (lol) would put their heads together to come up with a plan they could both follow but apparently not. None of this computes. The only two reasonable explanations for this mess are that 1) he's just too cheap and/or proud to hire a professional publicist or manager to create a unified presentation and help corral and train her or 2) she's being setup to fail.

• What is the Twitter account name? And yeah, based on his erratic behaviour this past year, I wouldn't be surprised if he was using. I would get good and drunk too if I had to deal with some of his loony fans. He sure seems to attract the crazies.

• &#64;Mabel says: That man does not look healthy, and yeah, I think he's using again and has been for more than a year. I don't think she's using now that she's pregnant but she definitely was when they were together. I don't know why a certain easy to find account created by her and a friend last summer hasn't been deleted; she says right out that she's stoned. Hell of a crappy photoshop job on the HTDA picture when you see the baby bump picture. He hasn't looked like that in more than 10 years, and they totally screwed up her face because it is not shaped like that. She may be a changed woman, wife, and future mother now, but when I saw her vid about how much she had consumed in September '09 I knew that the trolls were dead on about her.

• This is a tragic comedy. Trent and Mariqueen co-created a disaster. Trent can't write songs anymore so he needed another way to get attention. He does outrageous things and marries Mariqueen who feels this is her big chance at stardom. The age gap between them creates a distance between them. In her attempt to be seen, Mariqueen acts out and the more she acts out, the more Trent withdrew. Her pregnancy is a result of her acting out. Where is the love in this relationship. You only see the pain and confusion from them. And the NIN fans are left with all these questions, doubts, anger and most just gave up being fans.

• &#64;Spinaltap20 says: She's holding car keys you trolling idiot, zoom in on the photo idiot.

• Yay for Trent and Mariqueen! Mariqueen is so beautiful, especially in pregnancy, and Trent looks so fit. I'm happy to finally see a picture of her pregnant with their baby. They both look so healthy, and the baby looks like a big one! The ability to become pregnant and have a child is such a blessing -- as a new mom myself, I know that having a baby fills one's life in a way that nothing else can. And I think that any woman who is pregnant should flaunt it; being able to carry life inside of your womb is insanely special! Mariqueen is gorgeous, makeup or not, clothed or not. Trent is too. There are people who are just like that and they make our culture interesting. I'm not crazy about How to Destroy Angels, but I find the two of them compelling.

• i don't understand this mess. way would he be sooo weird about this engagement, marriage and baby. i haven't seen a happy pic yet even the wedding pics look fake happy, maybe he was drunk? eh? why did he put her into the spotlight so badly so everyone hates her? she was so mean to his fans. why would he allow her to tweet about about their sex lives and he tweeted about viagra. sooo weird. she's tarnished his reputation for me and now i'm not sure i believe anything they say.

• "Snap" ive seen a lot of pictures of MQ and she has a large hiney and big hips,you put a baby bump pillow under that dress and poof your pregnant. Sorry not buying it.
