Eminem - 11, Jimmy Kimmel - 1

Sunday June 8, 2008

Eminem gave talk show host Jimmy Kimmel a taste of Detroit basketball during a one-on-one hoop session on Sunday's episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!. The price at stake? The loser gets a tattoo of the winner on his body. Well, as you might expect, Eminem, who had homecourt advantage, took Kimmel to school throughout the half-court game. The uneven match-up ended with an 11-1 Slim Shady blowout. As agreed, Kimmel received a tattoo of Eminem on his left arm. The two took turns inhaling helium after the game.

In case you're wondering why Eminem suddenly decided to come out of seclusion and make a TV appearance, you're not alone. After watching the show, I ran a Google search to find more about the video. It turns out Jimmy Kimmel originally aired that clip in 2006. I've been had.

Ha ha, I remember that video from when it first aired. I thought it was odd that they’ve recently been advertising it like its a new clip.
