Rapper's boyhood home brings $1 million bid

WARREN, Mich. -- Bidding for one of Eminem's boyhood homes has surpassed $1 million on an Internet auction site.

The modest Warren home, listed on eBay since Thursday, was appraised at $91,000. Bidding opened at $120,000, and by Tuesday afternoon, the high bid was just over $1 million.

"It's just amazing the response we're getting," said Sebastian Lucido, a Utica attorney who bought the house with Roland Fraschetti, a Macomb County commissioner and real estate developer.

Eminem's uncle, Todd Nelson, sold the house this month for $45,000 to Lucido and Fraschetti. The 1,300-square-foot home has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It was built in 1940 and has been in Eminem's family for at least 50 years, Fraschetti said.

The Web site, which includes pictures, had over 18,000 hits in less than four days, Lucido told The Detroit News.

R&B Grammy winner shot with pepper spray

RICHMOND, Va. -- Grammy-winning R&B singer D'Angelo had to be subdued with pepper spray after he resisted arrest on misdemeanor charges of aggressive driving and other counts, police said.

Chesterfield police said they went to D'Angelo's suburban Richmond home after a confrontation he reportedly had with a woman at a gas station Sunday. The singer, whose real name is Michael Eugene Archer, allegedly cursed at the woman and spit on her after he cut her off in his sport utility vehicle, police said.

D'Angelo allegedly resisted police as they tried to arrest him Monday and had to be subdued with the spray, Maj. James B. Bourque said.

The 28-year-old singer was released on his recognizance pending a Jan. 15 appearance in Chesterfield General Court.

He's also charged with assault, curse and abuse, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, all misdemeanors, Bourque said.

Two years ago, D'Angelo received a Grammy for best male R&B vocal performance for "Untitled (How Does it Feel)" from the album "Voodoo," which also won a Grammy for best R&B album.
