Eminem: 'I Was Bullied At School'

October 11, 2010
Eminem: 'I Was Bullied At School'Eminem has revealed that he was bullied when he was a child.

The rapper said he was the target of taunts because he changed schools a lot.

"I would change schools two, three times a year and that was probably the roughest part," he said during an appearance on 60 Minutes.

“[I got] beat up in the bathroom, beat up in the hallways, shoved in the lockers, just, for the most part, being the new kid."

In a candid interview, Eminem said he repeated ninth grade three times before quitting school to embark on a rap career.

But the rapper admitted that, despite his limited education, he was still good at English because he used a dictionary to aide his rap lyrics.

Elsewhere in the interview, Eminem also revealed that he didn’t swear at home when in the company of his children.
