EX-BODYGUARD PENS
SCATHING SHADY BIO

Book Has Eminem Camp Seeing Red,
Author Seeing Green
Because no day is complete without some new wrinkle in the ongoing Eminem soap opera, here is today's installment.

Eminem's former bodyguard plans to reveal the "real" Slim Shady in a self-published paperback due at the end of the month.

In "Shady Bizness," bodyguard-turned-unauthorized biographer Byron Williams claims the volatile rapper is consumed with sex and drugs. Williams served as a 24-hour bodyguard for the chart-topping rapper from March to December 1999, leaving after a salary dispute.

Williams gave the New York Post a preview of his tome, which runs the gamut of debauchery: sex with minors, homophobia, ecstasy abuse, Eminem's troubled marriage and the tiff with teen sensation Christina Aguilera.

The accusations are being vehemently denied by Eminem's camp, who call the paperback a "fable by a disgruntled employee."

Williams claims Eminem—whose wife Kim just yesterday (8/22) asked for $10 million in their pending divorce—had mistresses in Florida and California, and would fly the pair around the world. Says Williams of the women Slim preferred: "They were always exotic, unlike Kim. He was very picky, just anyone wouldn't do, and most of the girls were quite wholesome. They were supportive, compassionate and gave him what he wanted."

He says a romp with a 15 year-old Swedish strumpet nearly landed Em's entourage in jail. The girl had a fake ID stating she was 22. Slim Shady found out her real age only after they spent the night together. Williams also recounts a trio of bisexual Kansas college students who wanted a menage a quatre with Eminem. The rapper was too busy arguing with his wife on the phone to partake, so Williams—because he's such a stand-up guy—videotaped the action.

Williams traces Em's love-hate relationship with pop tart Aguilera back to the MTV Europe Awards, where Aguilera wouldn't give the rapper the time of day. "She gave an interview and was asked to name the cute guys in the industry, and Slim's name came up," Williams says. "Christina said, 'He's cute but he's married to Kim.' He thought she'd blasted him."

Williams alleges the rapper is a creature of a six-hit-a-day ecstasy habit: "He usually takes his first hit right after his cheese egg breakfast. I'm an ex-drug counselor and I told him, ‘You're gonna wake up dead someday.'" Whether Williams was speaking of the ecstasy use or the heart-stopping "cheese egg breakfast" was unclear. Either way, that proves Williams cares, doesn't it?

Denying virtually every outlandish story in the book Eminem manager Paul Rosenberg responded: "This book is as sleazy as it gets. This guy is just out to get Eminem."

The former bodyguard claims Eminem's handlers offered him $25,000 not to write the biography. Rosenberg claims Williams wanted $1 million.

"We're pretty sad about the whole thing," Rosenberg said. "He used to be a comrade we trusted and now he's used our confidences against us."

Don't worry, Slim. The RIF reading bus doesn't stop in trailer courts.
