In just a few weeks, Eminem will release his highly-anticipated compilation album, Shady XV. While the infamous "Rap God" is busy at work in LA, he still took time out of his hectic schedule to attend New York's annual "Innovator of the Year Awards" in order to honor hip-hop mentor Dr. Dre and Beats co-founder, Jimmy Iovine.
Slim Shady gave a very humbling speech at the Wall Street Journal sponsored event on Wednesday (November 5), stating:
"Dre and Jimmy are like a force of nature... As an example of how powerful they are, they had me fly here all the way from Detroit to speak publicly, and I really hate public speaking."
Not only were fans shocked by Eminem's unexpected appearance, but the 42-year-old's physical features also turned some heads.
Rumors suggest that years of heavy drug use and addiction made a rather negative impact on Shady's facial attributes. As UK's popular webloid Daily Mail puts it, "He looked haggard and gaunt... The lines and prominent veins in Eminem's pallid face were clearly visible." Do MstarsNews readers agree?
The Detroit emcee remains very open about his past issues with substance abuse - things got really bad will filming the hit 2002 drama, "8 Mile." He got hooked on several prescription pills including Ambien, Vicodin and Valium.
Or do the looks just come with age? Shady isn't that angry, hostile teenager anymore!

After a scary, life-altering overdose, the MMLP2 superstar finally checked into rehab in 2005. He later took a hiatus from music before returning with Relapse and Recovery.
Despite a few actual relapses, Eminem is now clean and healthy.
Shady XV hits stores on November 24!
