In an explosive interview with WKQI-FM's (95.5) "Mojo in the Morning" show this morning, Eminem's ex-wife Kim Mathers flipped the tables on Em and cleaned out her closet live on the air for all to hear.
"I can't stand him. (He's) an absolute horrible person," Mathers said. "I vomit in my mouth whenever I'm around him or whenever I hear his name."
She categorized sex with her twice ex-husband as "bad," and said "he's not very well endowed." She added when it came to sex, "(you better have) a little blue pill, or else it does not work."
Mathers has long been the subject of Eminem's vitriolic ire in his songs, and she said she viewed the interview as her chance to speak up in defense of herself.
Mathers said her ex-husband "never stopped his old lifestyle," referring to his pre-rehab addictions. Eminem entered rehab in summer 2005 for his addiction to sleeping medication.
She said she is "100 percent" sure she will never get back together with the rapper, and said she would never date anybody famous again.
Mathers said Eminem sees his kids -- the couple has a daughter, Hailie, together, and they also care for Hailie's cousin, Alaina-- once a week and when he does, "he's always yelling and complaining about something." She said Hailie consistently asks, "Why's dad acting so weird? That's what they say every day."
Mathers said after she attempted suicide after one of Em's concerts in 2000, Eminem reacted by saying he hoped she didn't expect him to miss any concerts because of the incident.
Mathers, who said she has thought about authoring a book about her time with Eminem, appears on today's "The Dr. Keith Ablow Show," though she said the appearance -- taped locally in December -- was only a pre-interview and she never knew it was going to air. She said she never met Ablow.
Mathers said Em text messaged her on Thursday when he heard she was going to appear on the "Mojo in the Morning" show, and blasted her for agreeing to do the interview.
Mathers and Eminem were first married in 1999 and divorced several years later. They re-married in January 2006 at Rochester's Meadow Brook Hall, and were divorced in April of last year.
