Beyonce, Eminem Win VMAs as Kanye Rains on Taylor Swift's Parade

Kanye West and Taylor Swift

Beyonce, Eminem, Britney Spears and Taylor Swift all won Moonmen at Sunday's 2009 MTV Video Music Awards — the latter much to the chagrin of Kanye West. But what's an award show without some controversy from the rapper?

Top Moments: Speidi's Web, Conan's Run, and the Fall of Brüno

Sacha Baron Cohen, Conan O'Brien, Barack Obama

Even serious people got a little silly this week. Will Ferrell showed up on Man vs. Wild. Brian Williams asked the president of the United States about Conan O'Brien. One of the few places for captivating drama was the MTV Music Awards, where a terrifying accident led to a heated confrontation between Eminem and — wait, what? That was a joke, too?

Eminem Opens Up About MTV's Brüno Stunt

Eminem, Sacha Baron Cohen

"Sacha [Baron Cohen] called me when we were in Europe and he had an idea to do something outrageous at the Movie Awards," he told RapRadar.com. "I'm a big fan of his work so I agreed to get involved with the gag."

In their staged Sunday gag, a thong-clad... read more

MTV's Eminem-Bruno Stunt Was Completely Staged, Says Host Andy Samberg's Head Writer

Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno gave Eminem a "new moon" preview of his own.

The "face-off" between Sacha Baron Cohen's bare backside and Eminem's mug came as a surprise to the viewers of Sunday's MTV Movie Awards, but just how shocked was the rapper also known as Marshall Mathers?

To hear host Andy Samberg's head writer, Scott Aukerman, tell it, not at all.

Ending nearly 24 hours of silence from all involved parties, Aukerman took to his blog to set the record straight: "Yes, the Eminem-Bruno incident was staged. They rehearsed it at dress [rehearsal] and yes, it went as far as it did on the live show."

As previously reported, Cohen's "Bruno" alter ego ... read more

Eminem Meets Bruno's Crotch, Leaves Movie Awards

Eminem

Never butt into Eminem at an awards show — especially not with your butt.

The rapper, who had an infamous encounter with Triumph the Insult Comic Dog at the 2002 Video Music Awards, was in no mood to get cheeky with Sacha Baron Cohen's flamboyant alter ego, Bruno, at Sunday's MTV Movie Awards. Baron Cohen, wearing angel wings and a scanty thong, descended on wires and staged a crash-landing upside-down onto Eminem.

"Are you ...

VIDEO: Eminem Takes Shots at Palin, Simpson, Lohan and More!

Eminem video "We made You"

Nobody is safe from Eminem's mockery in "We Made You," the first video from his forthcoming album Relapse — including Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan and Gov. Sarah Palin.

The video opens with the rapper lampooning Rock of Love's guylinered "love"-seeker Bret Michaels and a full-figured, cheeseburger-devouring Simpson in her famous Daisy Dukes. Also on Shady's "To Skewer" list are Kim Kardashian showing off her glutes, a bustier-wearing Palin and Lohan polishing Samantha Ronson's tonsils.

Watch the battery of celebrity bashing after the jump.

Eminem, All Grown Up? Rapper to Release Tell-All

Eminem

The real Slim Shady may finally be standing up — not through lyrics, but via a forthcoming memoir.

Four years after his last major studio album, Eminem is releasing a tell-all that reveals his struggles with poverty, drugs, fame, heartbreak and depression, according to MSNBC.com. In The Way I Am, Marshall Mathers III (that would be Em's given name), walks readers through his childhood, his introduction to the rap scene and his eventual struggles therein, from the loss of his father as a child to his experience as an outsider in high school in Detroit and, most recently, the loss of his best friend, Proof, who was shot in 2006.

Em's comments on Proof's death offer a glimpse of his surprising candor. read more

Eminem Plans Tell-all Book

Eminem by Barry Brecheisen/WireImage.com

It seems that 8 Mile didn't give us the whole semiautobiographical story. A British publisher has announced that Eminem is planning to release a memoir titled Eminem: The Way I Am in the U.K. in October. The book will include sketches, photographs, lyrics and journal entries from the enigmatic rapper. He pretty much dropped out of the spotlight in 2005 after releasing a greatest-hits collection, announcing his "retirement" (a desperately relative term in the hip-hop industry — cough, cough, Jay-Z), and being hospitalized for pneumonia this year.As usual, no Eminem news can exist without a beef of some sort, and it seems Slim Shady's camp is a mite peeved at Orion Books for the timing of its announcement of the project. "There is no firm release date scheduled, although it is anticipated to arrive in the latter part of this year," a rep told MTV News. "It's unfortunate that someone who does not have intimate knowledge of [the project] felt compelled to jump the gun on announcin... read more
