Mariah Carey has finally hit back at ex-boyfriend Eminem by dressing up as the rapper in her new music video.

Sounds pretty tame right? But the star actually lashes out at the hip-hop star in the lyrics for Obsessed, which is the first single from her upcoming album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel.

It all begun when Eminem claimed he'd bedded the singer during their previous brief romance on his song Bagpipes from Baghdad, but now Mariah is using her music to get her own back, and sings, "You're delusional, boy, you're losing your mind... It must be weed, it must be the E... Why are you so obsessed with me? Lying that you're sexing me... You're a mum and pop, I'm a corporation... I'm a press conference, you're a conversation."

Carey continues her tirade against the rapper by trading in her glamorous looks to appear as a man with a striking resemblance to Eminem, wearing an oversized sweatshirt, baseball cap and baggy sweatpants for the video clip, which was filmed in New York on Monday.

Just last month, the singer's husband Nick Cannon blasted Eminem for disrespecting Carey, insisting their relationship was never serious: "(He is) still obsessed with my wife, the same female that wouldn't let him get to second base from eight years ago."
