Former Marilyn Manson band member Gidget Gein is found dead at his home.

Gidget Gein, a former member of Marilyn Manson's band, has been found dead.

The bass player, real name Brad Stewart, was with the group from 1989 until 1993, when he was fired and replaced by Twiggy Ramirez.

He then relocated to New York with his own band, Gidget Gein & The Dali Gaggers, before moving back to Los Angeles to resume an artistic career under the name Gollywood.

Stewart was found dead at his home in Burbank on Thursday, with an drug overdose suspected to be the main cause of death.

However, the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office will not be issuing any details until his family has been made aware of the situation.
