The controversial rocker - who was previously married to Dita Von Teese and engaged to Evan Rachel Wood - admits he is a "wildcat" who is desperate to find someone who understands both his wild rock persona and his real identity, Brian Warner.

Asked his type, he said: "Nice ones. I've avoided that - unintentionally - in the past. Not naming anyone and saying that they were mean, but I think I've been described as flypaper for crazy women.

"It's hard to take on that role when I'm so unreasonably unusual to handle. I guess I'm a wildcat. I find myself wanting to locate a girl who is truly nice, and understands both Brian and Marilyn Manson. It's person and persona, it's all of it, it's a handful.

"So, someone who is nice enough and kind enough to deal with that. I'm not sure if they make that sort of person. I'll let you know if I find out."

When he does meet a "nice" woman, the 47-year-old rocker won't be taking them very far on a first date.

He told Dazed magazine: "I don't really like to share any sort of conversation or intimate moments around strangers in a public environment, so I would say my house.

"Also, that makes it convenient in the event that the date goes south and I have to kill the person. There would be no evidence, no witnesses. I have an incinerator in my backyard."

But the 'Rock is Dead' hitmaker insisted he wouldn't have ulterior motives in inviting women to his house.

He added: "I don't put out that easy."
