Eminem Has Bodyguard Drop Off Ballot

CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- Eminem made his voice heard for the first time at the ballot box. The 32-year-old rapper voted by absentee ballot in Tuesday's presidential election and had a bodyguard drop it off, township clerk Dennis Tomlinson said.

"This guy (the bodyguard) was huge. I'd hate to run into him in a dark alley late at night," Tomlinson told The Macomb Daily of Mount Clemens.

No word on who Eminem voted for. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, he said it would be his first time voting. He was highly critical of President Bush but had not yet settled on Democrat John Kerry.

2. I hate to use to much hip hop slang...

..but his new album is BANGIN' yo!

(as I've said before and will every time the subject of Em comes up)

Best album this year! I pulled a 2 hour repair job on my car radio faceplate (volume up/down buttons broken) just to bump it in the car.

:headbang:

3. Sad. I hope his bodyguard didn't get a replacement ballot and make changes

to it.

Sigh.

4. Last year he was staying at a hotel I was staying at

and he and his bodyguards took over the top floor of the hotel--they'd greet you at the elevator and ask you if you were staying on that floor and ask to see your key card before they'd let you go to your room. If not, they'd ask you to please return to your floor. They weren't rude or anything but my God, those were the biggest guys I'd ever seen in my life. Never did see him though.

.. and after his performance, he had to walk through part of the crowd...

He had this phalanx of HUGE guys surrounding him.. but what was funny was that one guy, litteraly so much bigger and taller than Em, walked next to Em and had a big jacket on with the front buttons open and sort of tucked em inside his jacket.. literally.. where Em's head was pretty much covered and he had his arm around him and whisked him off to the secure area.. it was funny.

I laughed at how small Em looked next to this dude and how the dude literally tucked him into his pocket practically.
