Some new street fodder for Eminem. The best-seller rapper is due to be arraigned today in Michigan after being charged Tuesday with assault with a deadly weapon stemming from a weekend nightclub brawl. Eminem (real name: Marshall Mathers, as in his current chart-topper, “The Marshall Mathers L.P.”) also was charged with carrying a concealed weapon.
All this, because ol’ Em reportedly caught another dude kissing his wife.
The business went down early Sunday outside a Warren, Mich., nightclub when a fight broke out between security guards and the hip-hopster’s crew. Prosecutors say Eminem got Medieval on one John Guerra, conking the guy over the head with a 9mm handgun after he saw Guerra kiss Mrs. Eminem (real name: Melissa Mathers).
(For the record, Eminem’s better half says the smooch was a friendly smooch and that her hubby “overreacted.”)
The 27-year-old Eminem — alter-ego Slim Shady — just last week established a debut-week sales record for rap albums.
