IT'S A ROBOT: Don't Pee On Shirley Manson and Tell Her It's Raining


Click to see Shirley Manson shed her inner urinal cake.

As an unabashed Garbage fan, I was most excited to hear that Shirley Manson would be joining the cast of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, even if it did seem like an utterly bizarre career turn. Unfortunately, I did not actually see the season premiere, but thanks to Defamer, I learned that the red-headed vixen played not only a robot, but a robot that moonlights as a urinal too. There’s something mildly kinky about seeing pee bringing a toilet to life (as much as a sentient robot can be called “alive”), but while the transformation is eye-catching, it’s nothing compared to Manson’s finger of death, which manages to be both fatal and dainty simultaneously. If only she’d said “BOOP!” the moment she impaled the guy through the forehead…
That being said, while I love the whole concept of Shirley as a badass bathroom robot, I’d be even happier if she spent less time in the men’s room and more time in the studio, mmkay?
