A few years ago, actress Evan Rachel Wood was a fresh-faced blond ingenue who got attention for her mature acting ability and beautiful singing voice, landing her roles in films such as “13” and “Across the Universe.” Today, she’s more famous for being the 19-year-old girlfriend of rock freakazoid Marilyn Manson. Since hooking up with Manson, we’ve noticed some uncanny changes in Evan’s appearance. It started with her change in makeup, and now she’s dyed her blond hair dark and started dressing like a 1950’s pin-up girl – not unlike a certain ex-wife of Manson. At her recent appearance on the red carpet to promote her new film “The Wrestler,” Wood was a dead ringer for Dita Von Teese. Though she looked lovely, it was a little creepy.
Evan Rachel Wood is glorious in a wonderfully deconstructed two-toned Lanvin dress at the photocall for her new movie, The Wrestler, at the Piazzale del Casino during the 2008 Venice Film Festival on Friday in Venice, Italy.
The 20-year-old actress plays estranged daughter Stephanie to Randy “Ram” Robinson (Mickey Rourke), a retired professional wrestler.
The Wrestler is directed by Darren Aronofsky (Rachel Weisz’s husband) and doesn’t have a release date yet.
Wood and Manson have reportedly moved in together. I wonder if Manson makes her wear Dita’s old clothes, or roll around naked in a giant champagne glass? This girl could do a lot better- hopefully she’ll wise up to what’s going on here and get out of this before she does something crazy, like marry the creep.

I’m sorry but I don’t see it. Dita steals her look in total from a 1940s pin-up while ERW just looks like a teenate chick in a designer dress with her hair up. Where’s the doppelganger?
That is actually a cute dress. On someone who’s at least 30… Or 29.
It would also work on somebody over 50 (and that is saying a lot).
I’m still surprised that this young lady was once upon a time “Billy Eliott’s” cute and bubbly girlfriend.
She has changed a lot since she started seeing Manson. And I’m afraid it’s not the best look for her.
Love the dress, really cute on her too. But see nothing to suggest she’s being Dita-fied. Only thing I don’t understand is what she’s doing with Manson. 😯
Dita wouldn’t wear her hair that unkempt.
These pictures don’t really the show the extent to which her transformation into an almost-Dita has gone. I’ve seen a lot creepier! Take a quick look at this: http://www.heatworld.com/img/upload/500×400/1000037112.jpg
I disagree about her being able to do better. Marilyn Manson is a genius in his own way and a very intelligent and cultivated man. Just look more closely at his body of work. He may look strange to a lot of us but he is an amazing, edgy artist. I’d date him in a heartbeat. The only thing I don’t condone (which is apparently what Dita left him for) is his drug use and alcohol excesses. Though really, who knows how much of that is made up and how much is true.
I think she looks stunning. Older, but stunning. Her hair is auburn, not black, and I think it is beautiful on her.
Evan looks beautiful, me thinks.
It’s like that Hitchcock movie Vertigo – where Jimmy Stewart makes Novak dress up as a “dead” woman. Only Woods as the Novak character? And Manson as the Jimmy Stewart character?!?!? NOOO!!
I heard he had a 2″ pee-pee! Ewwwwwwww.
I think he is hideous and am amazed he gets beautiful women like this.
I think she looks creepy. DVT is always beautiful!
Thanks for that photo link, Anna. It really shows the similarities.
Your welcome MSat, no problem at all.
I never understand why people make fun of him…
It does seem almost reminiscent of Vertigo though, I agree with that. I’m not that into Evan Rachel Wood, but as far as I’m concerned, if she feels like experimenting, there’s no reason to be against it.
I have the feeling that MM girlfriends always share his phases. And it seems his 1940s style phase isn’t over. Whatever, I really like him and admire his art.
I’m impressed! This picture shows her beauty. She looks very glamorous.
However, I’ve seen pictures of her that creep me out because she looks so much like Dita. The whole situation seems very dirty lolita. To each his own I guess.
It cracks me up that people just do not get that Marilyn Manson is being ironic…his whole look is meant to be a mirror, reflecting the true dark & twisted nature of society that it tries to keep hidden under blonde hair and fake smiles.
And even if it’s not, he’s not creepy. He’s just a dorky dude named Brian from Canton, Ohio. Oooooh, scary.
I love how many manson supporters there are here! I’m not into his music, but this is actually really refreshing. And I think Evan Rachel Wood looks beautiful.
ERW looks great, but the transformation is pretty creepy. She was amazing in Across the Universe!
she would have changed a lot over these years anyway – 17-25 you are usually trying on different personalities…
Dita=creepy ERW=beautiful, Dita was a better match for him, maybe that is why the need to emulate her.
This is just sad.
She doesnt look so much like Dita here but in past photos Its scary. I have to agree tho, Manson is a genius, much like Rob Zombie. To look at them you think omg ew ew ew ew. But if you pay attention and dig past the surface of who they are, they’re very intelligent people who are very talented.
Evan’s dress is way better but her hair looks like crap! Dita never has a hair out of place
Susan – he does not have a 2-incher. It’s large – you can find it on the net. I’ve seen it.
I heard a wonderful NPR interview with him that was riveting. He’s very entertaining. But that does not eliminate all the drugs and the EW factor.
@gg – please share the link!
She’s not pale enough yet! Getting there though…
ERW rocks the hell outta those horizontal stripes.
yeah she looks good but I think they were really thinking of this picture

I think she’s still young enough to do what she thinks would make a man happy rather than being herself. BUT maybe not.
Dita’s skin looks so nice on her face, but the pale legs are gross. Maybe she should spray tan her lower half
No sorry CB, she’s about as far removed from looking like Dita as I am. Girl can’t dress for shyte either.
WHY do people think it’s ok to call pale skin disgusting!? hello, would you ever comment on a woman’s skin color being too black?
i have to say, either way… this girl is gorgeous…
MM has a penis!?
always thought MM had a vag! 😳
I don’t like MM’s music, but I have a lot of respect for the guy. He’s very intelligent and articulate, I’ve heard him speak on several occasions and been blown away by how he comes across. (seVen gets bonus points for the shout out to equally interesting freaky guy Rob Zombie)
Evan is no Dita, but I think there can only be one… She is a gorgeous girl. The peep toe stacked heels are making me drool.
geeee – difference between pale and pasty. if a person were super dark cause they were baby-oil-and-sunbathing it up, you bet i’d comment. DVT is not just pale, she’s unhealthily, self-consciously pale. pasty, even. there’s a difference between a lively alabaster and straight up bloodless.
Funny how Marilyn Manson’s one of the biggest bitches about conformity, when his girlfriend is the pinnacle of it.
Let’s face it- she’s Marilyn Manson’s little Barbie doll, his Frankenstein’s monster. This drastic transformation had not taken place until they became an item, and suddenly the hair was dyed dark and the makeup became darker and heavier.
It’s apparent that Evan Rachel Wood has changed to impress Marilyn Manson, and Marilyn Manson’s too self-righteous to realize that he’s screwing the epitome of everything he’s allegedly “against”.
Marilyn Manson is a hypocrite. Conforming to nonconformist standards is still conformity. Nice try.
I’m with you, Freedom Fighter Sister. -Suzie X
@geeeee. I’m totally with you. I think the comments about pale skin are repugnant. Pale isn’t unhealthy by virtue of being pale. When it comes to something like skin, maybe people should keep their traps shut.
