Eminem Not Taking Any Chances

Posted: 05 May 2009 09:45 AM PDT

Eminem and his entourage were caught in Paris, France wearing their protective gloves and masks. Eminem had to be there for work but when news of the swine flu outbreak reached France, he wasn't going to take any chances.

Judging from the picture it looks like Eminem's body-guard felt immune to the swine flu because he isn't wearing his mask. I guess he figures that if he could stop a bullet he could also stop himself from getting the flu.

Be sure to check out Eminem's Album Relapse and hit single We Made You in stores May 19, 2009.
