Umm:

[Eminem] has been confirmed to play at [Nelson Mandela]'s 90th birthday bash this summer.
…
An insider revealed: “We’re amazed to have Eminem on board. We wanted some of the greatest artists from recent times and Eminem was on the list. Brian contacted Eminem’s management on the off-chance and never expected him to go for it. It’s going to be explosive stuff and it’s certainly a big stage to make his comeback."

First the demon goat and now this. Start making amends with whatever god(s) you may have, people. This can't go on for much longer.

Rapper Eminem, who effectively proved that controversy can't keep a person afloat forever, is rumored to be going the way of many losers before him: He's going to become a professional wrestler. As attention-starved heavyweights like Mike Tyson, Andy Kaufman and Donald Trump have all done in years past, Em will enter the ring to prove he still matters.

[An] insider claims that Eminem is about 3 to 4 months away from making his debut…"He's not doing this as a joke either, he's really committed to being a wrestler. Wait and see, he's going to be flipping [other wrestlers] and doing all that crazy [EXPLETIVE]."

Crazy [EXPLETIVE], indeed.

• Because clearly he was somewhere pink and gay. [Defamer]

• America's first Next Top Model is now America's most emotionally fragile Next Top Model. [ASL]

• I like the skull imagery. It makes me think she's part of some secret skull club.[JJ]

• Halle Berry revels in the fact that she has the same body she did when she was 15. Is that safe? [ICYDK]

• With a simple dye job, Mary Kate is 48 percent less ghosty. [IDLYITW]

• Cam getting fitter. [PopSugar]

• Since when does Eminem follow standard legal procedure? [DListed]

Eminem and longtime love and muse, Kim, are reportedly engaged for a third time:

His best pal Akon, who is in London to promote his dancefloor hit I Wanna Love You, exclusively told us: "Eminem still loves Kim.
"He can't live with her, and he can't live without her. But they are meant for each other. They are engaged again."

Eminem confided his feelings to Akon, 25, when they recorded Smack That, the first single of Akon's album Konvicted.

Akon went on to say that Kim was wooed back when Em showed up at her house in a trench coat, held a boom box above his head and blasted "Kim," the song he had written specifically for her. As Akon remembers, "By the time it got to the part when Em's screaming 'Bleed, bitch, bleed!, Kim was already in his arms." Awwwwwwwwww!

Just a thought, but if you see Eminem out at a strip club, unless you're a stripper, leave him the f alone. He most certainly does not want to be your friend, no matter how awesome you are. In fact, he may entertain the thought of killing you if you so much as say hello. Looks like someone in Detriot forgot the Eminem is a surly man with huge bodygaurds rule and meddled just a touch outside of Em's comfort level. WXYZ News in Detroit reports:

A man named Miad J. says he was punched in the face by rapper Eminem early Thursday. He says he was hit 4 or 5 times while using the men’s room at a local strip club.

Witnesses say Eminem was at the Cheetah’s strip club on 8 Mile Road in Detroit Wednesday night, accompanied by an entourage.

Miad J. spoke to 7 Action News Thursday afternoon and said he was hit by the celebrity rapper at about 1 a.m. Thursday.

Miad says he was in the men’s room, using a urinal next to Eminem, when another man entered the men’s room and started to talk to the rapper.

He says one of Eminem’s bodyguards told the man to be quiet. Miad says he then asked the bodyguard to ease up on the star struck man in the restroom.

"Eminem got done and boom," Miad recounts. "He started swinging."

"I wasn’t even expecting it," Miad said Thursday. "I was just minding my own business, taking a leak."

Has this dude never heard anything by Eminem before? Em sings about killing his wife immediately before getting back together with her. He is the exception rather that the rule. The man, however wonderful he has the capacity to be, certainly has a violent streak.

The ungrateful little bastards (I kid, I kid) at the University of Pennsylvania were less than thrilled when they heard that their 2006 commencement speaker would be Jodie Foster. Their complaints were along the lines of as one of the "top five" universities in the country (which is a dubious stat, at best), they should have been pulling bigger names. Maybe they were just mad that their final college moments would be dictated by a graduate of a school they couldn't get into. Zing!

Thankfully, AP reports that the event went off better than expected.

PHILADELPHIA - You can add rapping to the list of
Jodie Foster's talents. The Oscar-winning actress spoke Monday at the University of Pennsylvania's commencement ceremonies, ending her address with the chorus of Eminem's "Lose Yourself" from "8 Mile," the semi-autobiographical 2002 film in which he starred.

Foster, who graduated from Ivy League rival Yale University in 1985, received an honorary doctor of arts degree.

She earned laughs from the graduates by taking pictures of them from the podium and then by recalling her own years at Yale. But she struck a serious note later, saying the country and world are worse off than they were four years ago, and challenging graduates to change that.

At least Jodie Foster knows how to connect with the youth of America–by quoting a rap song from four years ago.
