Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Gossip, Music Videos, Hip-Hop & Rap,
A music video involving Eminem, Rihanna, Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan would probably be considered fiery any day of the week. But this new clip for “Love the Way You Lie” also addresses a very hot topic.
Although Rihanna’s history with ex Chris Brown is still fresh on many our minds, she, of course, isn’t the only musician to experience a turbulent relationship. This video is reportedly inspired by Emimem’s own relationship with his Kim Mathers, the woman he married and divorced twice.

Overdose Scared Eminem Into Quitting
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Drugs, Meltdowns,
Eminem “scared himself” with the extent of his drug addiction.
The rapper admits he only gave up taking illegal substances for good after he relapsed just weeks after an almost fatal drug-taking session in late 2007.
“I had overdosed in 2007, like right around Christmas in 2007. I pretty much almost died. You know, I pulled through and went home and relapsed less than a month later and I literally shot back up to the amount of pills I was taking, shot right back up to where I overdosed. Kind of I scared myself, like, ‘Yo! I need to, I need help. Like I can’t beat this on my own.’ The things I was putting in my body, my tolerance got so high. I got to the point where I couldn’t even count how many pills I was taking.”
The hip-hop superstar has a 14-year-old daughter Hailie, his child with ex-wife Kimberley Scott, and two adopted girls Alaina, the child of Kimberley’s sister, and Whitney - Kimberley’s daughter from a previous relationship. He is also the legal guardian of his younger half-brother Nathan.
