Rapper Eminem, born Marshall Mathers III, was abandoned by his father at just 18 months old. In 2002, his mother Debbie Nelson filed a 7 million dollar lawsuit against Eminiem, claiming defamation from his song lyrics. She then wrote a tell-all book repudiating her son’s claims that she was an alcoholic and drug addict and that they lived in poverty when Eminem was a boy. Debbie tried to turn the tables by painting a picture of Eminem as a bratty, spoiled child. However, while on her “deathbed” from breast cancer in 2009, Nelson publicly begged for reconciliation and Eminem paid off her medical bills.
