Grammy Award-winning singer Mariah Carey and Eminem have a complicated history. Rumors of a brief romance have haunted Carey for years as she continues to deny there was ever anything sexual between them.
In June 2009, Carey released the song “Obsessed” from Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, which addressed the chatter surrounding her alleged tryst with Slim Shady. As the title suggests, Carey essentially suggests Eminem was obsessed with her and nothing more.
Roughly six weeks later, Eminem returned with the Dr. Dre-produced diss “The Warning” and laid into Carey for denying their rendezvous. At the same time, he admitted he had an embarrassing interaction with Carey.
“Listen, girly, surely you don’t want me to talk,” he rapped. “About how I nutted early ’cause I ejaculated prematurely/And bust all over your belly and you almost started hurling/And said I was gross, go get a towel, your stomach’s curling/Or maybe you do, but if I’m embarrassin’ me/I’m embarrassin’ you and don’t you dare say it isn’t true.”
On Wednesday (June 16) — the track’s 12th anniversary — Mariah Carey decided to take another swipe at Eminem, this time on TikTok. In the clip, the 51-year-old mother participates in the Wipe It Down challenge and transforms from a seemingly frumpy housewife to the glitzed out diva that is Mariah Carey.
But midway through, Carey wipes the mirror again and turns into an Eminem impersonator, much like the person in the “Obsessed” video. Rocking a thick goatee, heavy five o’clock shadow, bandana, hat and hoodie, Carey ends the clip singing before saying the word, “Bounce.”
@mariahcareyI was so obsessed with wiping things down last year ? ##lockdown ##obsessed♬ original sound – Mariah Carey
As Eminem touched on in “The Warning,” he and Carey allegedly dated for around six months in 2001, something Carey has repeatedly denied over the years.
Eminem Takes Shots At Nick Cannon & Mariah Carey On Fat Joe Track 'Lord Above'
Carey’s denial was apparently the catalyst that spawned multiple diss tracks from both parties that continue to this day.
In December 2019, Em took aim at Carey and her ex-husband Nick Cannon on the Fat Joe song “Lord Above,” which evolved into multiple diss tracks from the former Wild ‘N Out host, including “The Invitation” and “Pray For Him.”
Hope he doesn’t diss her, I hope he releases everything he’s got on her. After all he did warn her.
Has she not learned her lesson? Eminem has never taken dissing her or Nick seriously, but absolutely loves doing it. However, if you keep giving him reason to he will keep doing it. Really the only exception is when Nick released those diss songs with his Wild N Out crew and invited him on show as a publicity stunt which I don’t blame him. They were soooo bad and it would have helped the show. Everybody saying Eminem never disses any actual good rappers. Well that’s because 99.9 percent of good rappers respect him. I expect another jab in a future song, but not a The Warning Pt 2.
And when I say I don’t blame him I mean I don’t blame Eminem for not responding.

Never understood their beef, it’s been weird. Two extremely talented artist. Mariah might be the most talented in her field/genre maybe out of her and Whitney, but Mariah has longevity strecthes a little longer so I’ll give her the edge. Mariah was a top 10 artist for 20 years straight. Em has been on of the best for 20 years plus too. It would be cool to see them do a funny skit together.
Their beef is that she acted disgusted at the notion that she may have dated eminem. She made it sound so ridiculous and beneath her. Then he plays her voicemails and she still denies it. Now it is Mariah who is obsessed with Em because we only hear about her when she mentions him. She continues to play herself with this tik tok thing. Eminem never let’s anything go, it’s an annoying trait of his, but she is doing the same thing.
if I were Eminem I would do a skit from her so called dis to Eminem ” “Obsessed” take her own dis to dis her it is one thing for someone to make there own dis track about someone but using there own song the one they made to dis you and you make a dis out of her own song to dis her. Now that would be funny
“take a look at Mariah, next time I inspire you to write a song…”
Mariah, show your juggs.
Stans are hilarious. Y’all realize how bad a look it is to have beef with a female r&b singer?
As if millions of dollars is a bad look. Exit stage left, idiot.
You mean the x bitch. Not like it’s just random.beef. the only difference is eminems life is public you never fought with an X???
not a good couple.
Mariah Carey? The alcoholic that made a fool out of herself in a drunken black out during the celebration of the new year on national TV? Yeah…….believe her…do that.
The Warning was fuckin savage. But, it was just a warning…
the salacious rendezvous happened but she all embarrassed and sh!t cause Shady laid her and laughed about it with his boys …
