Mariah Carey Humiliated Him

High-profile hookups in his past may have taught Eminem to keep his private life private. Actress Brittany Murphy told TRL he broke her heart “into about a zillion pieces” after they dated while filming 8 Mile (2002), but it was his rumored relationship with Mariah Carey that really generated negative attention for both parties.

According to Complex, Carey downplayed any contact she ever had with Eminem, while the rapper insisted they had a relationship for about six months. He was reportedly furious that Carey wouldn’t confirm their romance. That resulted in a lot of hateful lyrics. Eminem called the “Infinity” singer nearly every derogatory name in the book and detailed intimate encounters that she denied. He even released voice mails allegedly from Carey, which her camp claims were the work of an imposter, and he continued his feud with the songstress and her then-beau Nick Cannon in the song “Bagpipes From Baghdad.” She shaded him in her “Obsessed” song and video, and he didn’t take too kindly to it, releasing the brutal “Warning” track, which essentially proved Carey’s point.
