EMINEM: HOME-TOWN BOY
THERE'S a reason why Eminem has stayed out of trouble for the past couple of years - he was scared straight. Having landed in court on assault and gun possession charges, the rapper born Marshall Mathers told the December issue of Vanity Fair: "Nothing woke me up more than standing in front of a judge, and my life is in his hands." Consequently, the somewhat reclusive Grammy and Academy Award-winning superstar says he will never leave Detroit.

"This is all I've ever known, all I ever want to know," Eminem told the magazine. "I've seen the world, I've explored the world, I've traveled it, I've played in places; it's great to visit - this is where I want to live. I don't want to go to L.A. and get caught up in the party scene. All I ever wanted to do was to make enough money from music to be able to support myself and make a living, and have a future for my daughter. That was my plan from the beginning. It, getting this big - I never planned it."
