Jo Whiley recalls an unpleasant interview with Eminem & Dr. Dre Posted on August 6, 2025 By Remy Gelenidze Jo Whiley has recalled an interview with Eminem and Dr. Dre that made her “feel so tiny and so stupid”. The broadcaster opened up about her time interviewing the rap icons during a recent episode of her Dig It podcast, which she presents with Zoe Ball.During the episode shared yesterday (August 4), the two presenters took a question from a listener, who asked them to recall which interviews they did that left them feeling “starstruck”. Whiley, who has interviewed the likes of David Bowie, Barbra Streisand and Noel Gallagher, then shared how an interview with Eminem and Dr. Dre affected her professional confidence. “I remember interviewing Eminem and Dr. Dre once, and that was horrible. I’d interviewed Eminem when he was very young and he was very shy and polite. He kept calling me ‘ma’am’ all the time, and he was really, really sweet and humble.” said Jo Whiley.Then she continued: “Then a couple of years later he came back on the show but with Dr. Dre and the fame had happened and he was just this other creature altogether. They were so playful with me. They made me feel so tiny and so stupid, and it was a really unpleasant experience. I did not enjoy that.” You can watch the episode below: [VIA]LATEST RELATED NEWS50 Cent drops unreleased song, teases new album titleMaino releases 50 Cent diss track “Bleed Like Us”Papoose name-drops Eminem again in a new 50 Cent dissEminem and Shade 45 mourn the death of Lord SearJoe Budden podcast host says Eminem can’t sell out stadiums without pop starIDK says Eminem Heard His New Record and He Liked ItShare this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Share on Threads (Opens in new window) Threads More Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window) WhatsApp Share on Telegram (Opens in new window) Telegram Dr. Dre Eminem Latest Interviews Latest News Dr. DreEminemJo Whiley
