Eminem Loses Notebook With Lyrics

Nov. 2, 2000 -- Poor Eminem. Not only has he lost some of his latest lyrics, but now the truth comes out: He does his work in a Britney Spears notebook.

The controversial rapper, who has sold more than 7.2 million copies of his sophomore album, The Marshall Mathers LP, lost his notebook on Friday. According to a statement from his label, Interscope, the notebook, which “has a picture of Britney Spears on the cover,” was in an airport newsstand bag that also included a portable CD player, a set of headphones, and several CDs. The rapper was flying on Delta Air Lines between Cincinnati and New Orleans. Eminem is offering a “very generous” reward for the return of the notebook.
