Jeordie White

Jeordie Osborne White (born June 20, 1971), better known by his former pseudonym Twiggy Ramirez, is a musician and currently the bassist for Nine Inch Nails and A Perfect Circle. White is perhaps most popular for his previous role as the bassist for Marilyn Manson (after which point he abandoned the pseudonym). A New Jersey native, he moved to Florida, where he grew up on Star Wars and heavy metal. White ended his long time musical partnership with Manson on May 29, 2002. It has been said that White quit the band in order to preserve his friendship with Manson rather than quarrel over the band's creative direction. After departing the band, he played two live shows with California punk metal band Mondo Generator, and auditioned for the role of second guitar in Queens of the Stone Age, which he lost to Troy Van Leeuwen of A Perfect Circle. He also auditioned for a spot in Metallica, where he is briefly seen in their documentary, Some Kind of Monster. Several months later, White joined A Perfect Circle, the project of Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan and former Nine Inch Nails guitar tech Billy Howerdel as a full member of the band on bass guitar. White later joined Queens of the Stone Age front man Josh Homme on the ninth and tenth volumes of Homme's annual drug-induced communal project The Desert Sessions.
