Eminem’s Surprising Sleeping Arrangements Revealed—Why the $1.5M Michigan Mansion Can’t Keep Him From His Bizarre ‘Temporary’ Sleeping Hack!

Eminem is set to become a grandfather after his daughter Hailie Jade Scott announced she was expecting a baby with her husband Evan McClintock.

The star, also known as Slim Shady, will be preparing for grandfather duties, and one part of his successful career will come in handy. Eminem has long called Detroit home, but he is no stranger to travelling the world for work where he has developed an unusual sleeping habit.

The ‘Not Afraid’ hitmaker uses tin foil on his windows when he travels

According to The Sun, the ‘Not Afraid’ hitmaker reportedly likes to wrap tin foil around hotel room windows to keep out the light and play white noise to get an uninterrupted sleep while he jumps between timezones. While Eminem uses it to regulate his body clock, the blackout room and the soothing noise are also surefire ways to help encourage his future grandchild to sleep through the night.

A restful night has long evaded Eminem, who previously opened up about his battle with insomnia.

Touching on his addiction to prescription drugs, the rapper told Complex magazine that he identified with late ‘Thriller’ singer Michael Jackson because of his own reliance on pills for sleep.

Eminem has spoken about his sleeping difficulties in the past

“When you read things about Michael Jackson it’s hard to decipher what is true, but there’s the story of how he woke up at whatever time and he needed something to go back to sleep because he had this or that and it didn’t work,” Eminem said.

“That’s exactly what used to happen to me. I would take a couple of pills and I would be up an hour later and I’d want more. Then I’d take more and that would be enough to maybe get me back to sleep for two more hours. Then I’d be wide awake again. So I definitely can relate.”

This comes after Eminem was forced to cancel his European tour in 2005 because of his addiction struggles. At the time, his management shared a statement that read: “Marshall Mathers, aka Eminem, is in the hospital under doctors’ care. He’s being treated for dependency on sleep medication.”

Eminem is set to become a grandfather

The Grammy winner, 51, announced he was to become a grandfather with his music video for his song ‘Temporary.’ It includes sweet footage of Hailie’s wedding day and Eminem holding a sonogram of his daughter’s baby.

When Hailie gives birth, Eminem will have plenty of space to welcome his family to his home in Michigan. Eminem purchased his property in Clinton Township in September 2000 for $1.5 million.
