The rapper was left feeling less than impressive over her comments
Eminem revealed why he dissed Christina Aguilera, pointing out that she started their feud after making comments about his marriage on TV.
Explaining how it all started, Eminem said he was initially flattered when Aguilera choose one of his songs on her MTV special, What a Girl Wants, but he soon became annoyed.
You can see his take on how it unfolded here:
After choosing his song ‘My Name Is’ on the special, Aguilera said: “I heard he’s married now… the girl that he talks about killing on his record, actually.”
The singer then went on to speak out against domestic abuse, urging her fans to never let a man disrespect them – but her comments didn’t go down well with the rapper.
Recalling the incident, Eminem said: “She picked one of my videos. I was like, ‘that’s cool she picked my video’.”
But he was left feeling less impressed when she mentioned hearing a ‘rumour’ that he’d married Kim Scott.

He went on: “And then she said, ‘yeah, doesn’t he have a song about killing his baby’s mother? And I always tell my friends, if you’re against domestic violence, you know, I’m so against domestic violence and if you’re in an abusive relationship…’
“And I was, like, why did she just pick my video if she’s picking it apart? I would rather have had her just say nothing about me.
“She heard a rumour, she didn’t know if i was married or not – she just heard a rumour and then put me on blast.
“But I figured, well, f**k it, since she did that – you said something about me, I’m going to voice some rumours that I heard about you.”
Eminem directly addressed the comments on his song ‘The Real Slim Shady’, which includes the lyrics: “Little b***h put me on blast on MTV” / “Yeah he’s cute but I think he’s married to Kim.”

In 2019, Aguilera addressed the feud saying it wasn’t ‘nice’ of the rapper to go after her.
Appearing on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, she said: “That’s really in the past and, you know, it was thirsty then, it’s thirsty now. “
It’s not nice to go after anybody, especially a female in this business, and now, what we’re looking at and seeing come to the forefront, it’s just, get a new gig. Have something else to talk about.”
