Eminem Bloated Up

Eminem recently opened up about his battle with painkillers and getting sober while promoting his new album, “Relapse.” But in a new interview with British chat show host Jonathan Ross, the superstar rapper revealed he also struggled with a weight problem during his years away from the public eye.

“Did you put on a lot of weight?” Ross asked during an interview, which aired May 15 on “Friday Night with Jonathan Ross” in Britain.

“Yeah, I put on a few pounds,” Eminem said. “I think I probably tipped the scales at a little over 200.”

Somewhere, Mariah Carey is laughing.
