EMINEM has cancelled his tour of Europe due to exhaustion, according
to a statement released by his record company.
The controversial rapper was due to begin the 10-date tour in
Germany next month, before winding up in Ireland on September
17.
But all dates - including his two dates with 50 Cent at the Milton
Keynes Bowl on September 9 and 10 - have been cancelled.
The statement from Interscope reads: "Eminem is currently
being treated for exhaustion, complicated by other medical issues."

There were no further details about
the singer's condition but the shows are unlikely to be rescheduled
at this stage.
Eminem's publicist, Dennis Dennehy, told the BBC that there would
be further news about the rapper's condition at a later date.
He added that it was unclear when the decision was taken to pull
the European tour.
News of Eminem's exhaustion is likely to further fuel speculation
surrounding the future course of his career.
In July, for instance, he was forced to dismiss reports that
he was 'retiring' from the music business, saying that he was
taking a break to produce other artists.
The reports followed comments made by Proof, his D-12 bandmate,
that the rap star was planning to call it a day after the final
gig of the European tour.
