displays her enchanted charm beautifully. Hailing from the south parts of
the United States, Mississippi, New Orleans and Indiana, she shivers that
'ole southern hospitality warmly inviting to all. Seraphim Ward was born
with a severe speaking impediment disorder that was said to be severe enough
that recovery to obtain an normal speech would not likely be, Seraphim grew
a custom to literature knowing this was the only outlet for communication
since she could not complete a full sentence not alone pronounce a entire
word. Seraphim Ward was teased a lot as a young child that continued up into
her late teens, for her nature and disorder, this caused her to become an
introverted mute for some time.
Having love for literature Seraphim Ward began writing her emotions and
thoughts in a very expressive manner creating a world around her that
reflected in her likeness and flaws. Seeing that she did not fit or belong,
Seraphim ran away at 15yrs. old, returning back home for just a short period
of time after, envisioning where she belonged and what she wanted to become,
Seraphim Ward left for Hollywood, still held bound to the stuttering speech
disorder, she religiously practiced on her speech daily, hoping eventually
it would go away. Seraphim Ward along with the other hundred's of Hollywood
run-a-ways, became a child of the night hidden away in the dark shadows. The
run-a-ways formed a safe group on the streets, looking out for one another
creating spanging and sleeping shifts, in which Seraphim became Willow, the
one protected in darkness.
She continued to write in her notebook lyrics, poems and vivid stories of
creation in another realm, show her passion of interest in it. Seraphim Ward
caught the eye of an manager for talent in Hollywood, who signed her,
placing her in a place to safely live and sent her out for auditions for
commercials, modeling and print work. Seraphim booked work, three national
commercials in a row shortly after... Kraft's Macaroni and Cheese, Foot
Locker, Macy's (back to school) and a J-Crew print ad. She went on to model
for designers and high-end boutique stores in Beverly Hills such as Be Be,
XoXo and Theory among many. Being able to take care of herself now, Seraphim
Ward got a one bedroom apartment on her own and continued to push in the
Entertainment Industry. Not too long after Seraphim realized her speaking
impediment was not present anymore and marveled that she has no regulation
of the pinpoint moment when it stopped, a few years would pass before
Seraphim Ward's stuttering disorder untimely return, Seraphim began writing
down her emotions, feelings and thoughts on paper again documenting her
complications in words.
This would lead her into her first music demo recording filled with the
material she wrote during and after the disorder left her again. Seraphim
Ward was introduced to a church in Los Angeles where she joined the choir
and the praise dance team, hailing to church 5days a week for rehearsals and
service, Seraphim thought this would be an great asset for her to ground her
spirituality balance once again. This was short lived when Seraphim was told
"she did not belong and she has no business being there". With the now
distracting situation, Seraphim Ward left and never looked back.
Her first Demo was recorded and which her Influences were Garbage, Nine Inch
Nails, Nina Simone and Concrete Blonde. Seraphim Ward met one of her
influences Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails through a mutual friend, and
they began dating, Trent introducing Seraphim to his family in Mercer,
Pennsylvania, was more than just a vision for Seraphim Ward it was a family
she grew not to have and a friend she could always look up to and trust.
Trent Reznor offered to lend a helping hand to Seraphim Ward with her music,
but Seraphim felt it was right that she did the beginnings of her recordings
herself, stating "this is something I have to do for me, I don't want to use
Trent Reznor for that", even today, he remains a positive illuminated figure
in Seraphim Ward's life and path, having given guidance and directional
advise to her that carried Seraphim through even some of her most darkest
moments in time, including her suicide attempt.
Seraphim Ward decided not to focus so much on music, but to pay attention
more on the creative writing literature side, wanting to put her visions to
screen as Rob Zombie had done with a "House Of A Thousand Corpses" Seraphim
Ward studied Film here in Hollywood an outlet of communication that allows
her stories, the torments, and the darkest secrets of her mind be painted.
Seeing that Seraphim Ward was not fully complete by those around her and
peers, she was suggested to mix the two her music and her film art, knowing
the difference in the creative spark, Seraphim Ward took the advice given
and started recording again while she was still studying Film. "It was like
as if a old flame had been ignited, a feeling I don't ever want to let go of
again" says Seraphim Ward Finishing film school Seraphim received her first
worldwide distribution deal for her Sin Icon Productions Film and Music
company in which the first single release off her "Time Heals All wounds"
album "Bad Behavior" was set to be released, as well as her complete
features "The Sight", "Reaper's Cry", "Angel One Eye", and "The Witches
Brew"...
Seraphim Ward began the promotion of her single "Bad Behavior" as well as
her movie features, having shot a three day music video shoot for the single
that was commercially displayed she was advised to hire an professional
publicist to get the leak out about herself as an artist and filmmaker
through her Sin Icon Production Music and Film company. Seraphim Ward was
over excited with her new adventure, wanting to eagerly show forth her
professionalism to her newly signed business partnerships by advance
promoting, when Seraphim Ward was lead to Infamous Publicist Jonathan
Shelton Jaxson by chance, who signed on to do publicity for Sin Icon
Productions and Seraphim Ward for two months. Within a few days "Life and
Style" magazine released a world wide scandal saying "Seraphim Ward and
Marilyn Manson are engaged" which is not true and did not come from the
mouth of nor a confirmation from Seraphim Ward that this rumor was true a
complete Publicist Publicity Stunt. The irony of the whole scandal is that
Seraphim Ward was dating Pogo Madonna Wayne Gacy, the x-keyboardist of the
band "Marilyn Manson", in which, they were living together in her Hollywood
Hills home at the time.
This was not in any way an appropriate way to introduce Seraphim Ward nor a
way to give honor to all her hard work, perseverance and obstacles, she had
to pull through in her past to get here. Seraphim Ward and Pogo Stephen Bier
Madonna Wayne Gacy, split after the heat and pressure of the scandal and the
negative attention, direction that it was given and taking. Seraphim Ward
has chosen to take some personal time out for herself to focus on her three
year film and music contract deal, and to get pass and plow over this
destructive situation that has been created. As for the publicist Jonathan
Shelton Jaxson he did not fulfill his two month contract as publicist
leaving the mess he created in the media, saying it just got to be too much
for him to handle "Life and Style" magazine did a reprint to the article as
a "Damage Control" to Jonathan Shelton Jaxson, reprinting the quote'
"Seraphim Ward told me she was engaged to "Marilyn Manson"".
Seraphim Ward was happily with Pogo Stephen Bier Madonna Wayne Gacy,
celebrating her newly contract adventure with her Sin Icon Production Music
and Film Company and the three year contract distribution deal, she had just
signed, so shame on them for breaking up such a lovely couple and creating
hardship. Seraphim Ward has received numerous death threats, because of the
"Marilyn Manson and Seraphim Ward Engagement" scandal. The media wrongly put
Seraphim Ward's life in harms way, with no intent of correction even knowing
it was a bogus story from Jonathan Shelton Jaxson the publicist going in.
Seraphim Ward has released a positive aim Introductory Video about her
proceeding forward despite what the media has wrongly published, knowingly,
slandering and defaming her name. We will definitely see more of Seraphim
Ward in the near future, no doubt about it. Biography By: Hellan Rice
