Eminem's mother claims he lied about his childhood to become a successful rapper.

Debbie Nelson says her son Marshall Mathers III invented his "trailer trash" upbringing to be accepted in the hip-hop industry.

Hip hop wonder Eminem had some not so nice things to say about his mom through his songs. Now, the mom fights back through a book.

Debbie Nelson says her son's trailer trash background is a lie. In her "My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem" tell-all book, she confesses going along with the whole falsehood just to help her son jumpstart his career.

Eminem is dating a woman who reportedly looks just like his ex-wife Kim Mathers. The rapper - who divorced Kim, the mother of his 11-year-old daughter Hailie, for the second time last December - is now romancing Detroit hairdresser turned music studio manager Marni Bright.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Marni works at FBT Studios in Michigan where Eminem records. She is the spitting image of Kim and he is smitten with her."

Mariah Carey debuted her new album to friends in a hot tub.

The singer, who has been busy working on her first new material since 2005's 'The Emancipation Of Mimi', decided to test the water by playing it to her girlfriends as they soaked together.

Eminem is suing Apple for selling his music online without his permission.

The 'Stan' rapper's representatives have demanded that the corporation stop selling between 70 and 80 of his tracks for download on their iTunes website.

Eminem will lift the lid on his alleged fling with Mariah Carey on his new album, it has been reported. The rapper claims to have had a brief sexual relationship with the diva in 2001 and has mocked her ever since. He now plans to reveal intimate details of the affair on his latest album.

A source told America's OK! magazine: "There is more than one track that goes into really specific, intimate detail about what went on between Em and Mariah."
