There are reports from people on the shoot that say it absolutely was real, and reports from Manson's people that say it was simulated. Our friend, 'A Source', says Manson and Evan Rachel Wood did it for real -- three times -- for the cameras.

 

'A Source', said to be "close to the production crew" spoke to 24dash.com and assured the world it was real sex, and said source somehow believes this will lead to some sort of weird religious cannibalism. "The Christian parents will be sharpening their steak knives for him," said 'A Source'.

 

Our anonymous buddy went into great detail about what went on:

They elected not to fake their intercourse. Though their genitals are concealed on-screen by bedclothes and each other's bodies, the video was originally intended to be shot in 3D, meaning their sex had to be shot from several different angles simultaneously. That meant the crew saw everything. And just to be sure they got it right, they got it on three times for the cameras.

Well, in fairness, you can't just do it once. That's so amateur porn.

 

However, a representative for Manson [and everyone knows an anonymous representative is far more reliable than an anonymous source] said, "It was simulated sex." There were no further details provided, such as how they simulated it, how many times they simulated it, or how they knew it was right for the cameras, so uh, let's just go with the more sensational story, which is:

Middle aged dude was banging his hot teenage girlfriend for real in that video!

 

Reportedly, Manson's record label, Interscope, will be releasing a safe for work/television/kids/Christian-parents-with-steak-knives version of the video. That version will likely be about 22 seconds long.
