Eminem: I Can't Wait

I can't wait for Em to come back on the scene. I don't know if he WAS fat - but I'm bet he's not anymore.


50 Cent has blasted recent reports his pal, Eminem, has gained weight.

“Em is in shape right now,” the ‘In Da Club’ star, 32, tells MTV. “He looks good. I seen him in Detroit. He’s gonna look real good when you see him return.”

Rumors about Eminem’s health and weight have been raging for months. The Detroit-based rapper — real name Marshall Mathers — has been virtually absent from the music scene for the last year.

In January, the ‘Stan’ rapper, 35, was hospitalized with pneumonia, and a report claimed that his weight had ballooned to more than 200 lbs.

But 50, real name, Curtis James Jackson, insists his old friend is doing fine. “The last time I seen him we played basketball together,” he said. “He had a knee injury, so we chilled for a little bit.”
