AceShowbiz - Adam Lambert says he's cool with the fact that he is mentioned by Eminem on a song called "Elevator". He told MTV, "Well, you know, he used a word that's not necessarily very nice, but I'm sure he's got some sort of justification for it. And I'm not going to take it personally. It's cool, Eminem!"
Met by the publication on the red carpet for the launch party of online music service Vevo, Adam furthermore praises the Slim Shady as a smart guy who knows how to do business. "If you get mentioned in an Eminem song, you're doing something right. And I'm sure he was planning on creating some controversy, because he's a smart guy," he explained.
Adam Lambert is not the only celeb mentioned by Eminem on the song which is expected to be listed on December 21 release "Relapse: Refill". His "Americal Idol" pal Clay Aiken and NSYNC's former member Lance Bass also become his rapping subjects. "Sorry, Lance, Mr. Lambert and Aiken ain't gonna make it / They get so mad, when I call them both fake / It's all these f---ing voices in my head, I can't take it / Someone shut that f---ing baby up, before I shake it," so the Slim Shady raps.
In addition, a number of celebrities have also been dissed by Eminem on his previous songs. Naming some are Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian, Britney Spears and Jessica Simpson.
