Eminem Spends Holidays Being Rushed to the Hospital

Cara Harrington @ Gone Hollywood | Tuesday, January 8, 2008

Marshal Mathers, also known as Eminem, was taken to the hospital for serious complications due to severe pneumonia. While most of us gorged ourselves on holiday feasts and chugged egg nog until we could tolerate in-laws and distant family members, Marshal spent his days in a Detroit hospital.

The heart issue that he has been battling with has nothing to do with his venture to the hospital according to sources close to the star. Reports also state that he has gained a few extra pounds. He hit the scales at just over 200 lbs. The normally chiseled and wife beater clad rapper is currently at home recovering.

So the guy beefed up around the worst time of the year to get weighed. I ballooned up 40 lbs before. I was knocked up though. Maybe Eminem is preggers to. I bet it is Casey Aldridge’s baby.
