The case against the relationship presented by: MARIAH
Overview: Having been linked to a number of famous men, including LEONARDO, MATT DILLON and TOM BRADY, the Eminem link has always been the one she most vehemently denied.
The evidence: Mariah insisted in 2002, “I think I was probably with him a total of four times. I don’t consider that dating somebody.” And told Maxim, “Did I have a sexual relationship with him? No, I didn’t... Maybe he thought because nothing happened he’d look bad or something.” And of those voicemail messages, a pal of the Honey singer, said, “That is not her voice... it is an imposter.” But Mariah’s having the last laugh in her new track Obsessed, singing, “You’re delusional, boy, you’re losing your mind... It must be weed, it must be the E... Why are you so obsessed with me? Lying that you’re sexing me.” Adding, “You’re a mom and pop, I’m a corporation. I’m a press conference, you’re a conversation.” Oh snap, sweetie!!
The case for the relationship presented by: EMINEM
Overview: Famous for being as honest in interviews as he is in his lyrics, the rapper insists he and Mariah dated in 2001 after they met to discuss collaborating on her album Charm Bracelet.
The evidence: Marshall started the war in a Rolling Stone interview in 2002, saying, “There’s truth to [the rumour we dated]. But... I just don’t like her as a person.” Then at his US concert back in 2005, he played voicemail messages he claimed were from Mariah, in which she said, “Why won’t you see me? Why won’t you call me?” And the rapper followed it up with a line in his track Superman – “What you tryin’ to be my new wife, what you, Mariah?” Before admitting on the radio in November 2006, “Yes, me and Mariah did have a relationship for about a good six, seven months. (But) it didn’t work. I wasn’t really into what she was into. She’s a diva, and I’m a little more regular.” Adding, “The fact that she denied we ever had something, that’s bad.”
Ahlan! Verdict: We’re inclined to believe Eminem on this one
