The Bizarre Eminem Conspiracy Theory Explained

Publish date: 2024-05-02

Eminem grew up in Detroit on the wrong side of the tracks. His struggles and strifes are what make him such a great rapper. His music comes from the soul. It's authentic — unlike aspiring rappers who grew up on the right side of Rodeo Drivementioning no names. Sadly, those struggles and strifes are also what fueled Eminem's drug addiction.

Eminem worked his way up to become one of the best rappers. Per Britannica, he's won 11 Grammys and an Oscar, among other awards. However, as his fame grew, his life began spiraling in addition to his weight increasing. "In 2007, I overdosed on pills," Eminem told Men's Journal, adding, "I was close to 230 pounds. ... The coating on the Vicodin and the Valium I'd been taking for years leaves a hole in your stomach, so to avoid a stomachache, I was constantly eating — and eating badly." 

Post-rehab, Eminem swapped his drug addiction for a running obsession, resulting in his weight plummeting to 149 lbs. Not surprisingly, he'd been out of the limelight while he took time off to focus on getting healthy and sober. Eminem admitted to Gray Rizzy that he even had to "[learn] how to rap again" after quitting drugs. When he re-emerged in 2009, Eminem looked different – he looked healthy and alive again. Or not, according to the bizarre Eminem conspiracy theory.
