In a recent interview with the singer on sexism in rock & overcoming shyness, Shirley Manson revealed one time she took revenge to the extreme...

Dave Simpson asked "In an old interview, you admitted to doing something terribly awful and embarrassing when you were about 18. Could you share what you did?"

To which Shirley replied "I took a crap on a cheating boyfriend’s breakfast cereal. I’m not ashamed; I’m rather proud of it. A dear friend did similar when she discovered her girlfriend was cheating and said: “While I was doing it, I thought of you.” I recommend it as an act of revenge. It leaves you feeling empowered and gleeful."
