I'm all for Eminem exposure, but why was he picked for a "Gods of Rock" shoot?

Em wasn't lying about the Ambien. From Wikipedia:

Zolpidem or Ambien has sedative/hypnotic and memory impairing effects. As an anticonvulsant and muscle relaxant, the beneficial effects start to emerge at 10 and 20 times the dose required for sedation, respectively. Such drastically increased doses are more inclined to induce one or more negative side-effects, including hallucinations and amnesia.

Ambien is commonly used to treat insomnia and with Eminem admittedly having trouble sleeping and admittedly popping 60-90 pills per day, ^that shit is not far-fetched...
