Apparently, Mariah Carey has a bone to pick with rapper Eminem over things he’s said about her and her much younger husband Nick Cannon and she’s using the music video for her new song, Obsessed, to get her point across. Carey wasn’t originally tapped to play the rapper, as director Brett Ratner had casted another singing funnyman. Think you know who it was?
Check for the answer, as well as more photos from the music video, after the jump>>>
It was SNL and D*ck In The Box singer, Andy Samberg. He was slated to play the roll of Enimen originally, but he probably backed out because he felt the role was slated at being anti-Eminem. And let’s face it, the last thing people want to do is make themself the next big target for Eminem’s wrath, ya know?

Mariah is deperately trying to hold on to some youth, especially with that arranged business marriage, and Eminem is a grown man trying to look and act like a 16 yr old by using the same marketing scheme that made him famous in the first place.
