Eminem remarries....the same woman

by Louise Livesey // 17 January 2006, 17:08

Eminem has remarried his ex-wife, Kim Mathers. Why should we care? Because this is the same Kim Mather's he represented so crudely in his songs.

Why would a woman return to such a man (jokes about his money aside)? One can only assume that rumours that "Eminem" is an act and Marshall Mather's does not share the views he propounds are true. And if so there is cause to question why such violent, misogyny has proven so marketable and so successful. Quite how Mather's worked out that what the pop world was missing was a violently misogynistic white guy rapping I'll never know but there you go. Obviously we wish the, now resumed, Mr and Mrs Mather's all the best with their marriage.
