Superstar rapper Eminem
has fired back at his ex-wife Kim Mathers in a statement released by his publicist
today (Feb. 16). Eminem’s
ex-wife Kim appeared on the "Mojo in the Morning" show this morning
on Detroit’s WKQI 95.5. During
the interview, Kim revealed that she had to force her children to visit Eminem,
that he wasn’t taking care of their daughter Hailie Jade or Kim’s other children
and that he was still on drugs."It’s
a shame that I’ve moved on and Kim hasn’t," Eminem said in a statement today.
"Her ongoing press campaign is doing nothing but harm to the children, and
for that I feel truly sorry. For their sake I wish she would stop."Kim
said that Eminem sent her a text message stating he couldn’t believe that she
was going on air to talk about their relationship. "Its
embarrassing to our family and you must not have any respect for the kids,"
Kim said. "I’m like ‘hello, have you listened to any of your songs?’"
In today’s
interview, Kim said that Eminem was not capable of loving women. She
also said that she constantly worried about Eminem’s drug addiction and that the
rapper was still addicted to drugs. "The
‘When I’m Gone’ video. Me and Hailie were supposed to be in that and lets just
say I found some things on the video set that’ probably shouldn’t have been there
and that’s why we weren’t in the actual video," Kim said. Kim
also said she wasn’t sure why Eminem asked to get married for a second time in
Jan. 2006, only to be divorced her one month later, in Feb. 2006. "I
wrote him a hundreds letters since he walked out…we got into an argument about
a birthday party and he left…I said ‘do you want people to feel sorry for you
again? You’re putting out another album their gonna want to buy it and hear what
I did this time?" Kim said. Kim
said that she was 100% positive that she and Eminem would never reconcile. She
also said that was considering a book on her life with Eminem.Kim
also appeared on ABC’s 20/20 earlier this month in a segment titled "Sweet
Revenge," where she revealed details about her relationship with Eminem and
their break up.
