Proof That All Eminem Needs is a Stable Family Life and a Steak

[ via CarbWire, which I’m surprised Cory didn’t blog until now ] Avril Lavigne, who is famous for having been covered by me on MuchMusic, says that her angry song lyrics were the result of her eating too many carbs.

(And here I thought the songwriting trio known as The Matrix wrote her stuff.)

This isn’t the first time that sugary foods have been blamed for someone’s erratic behaviour; in the late 1970’s, there was the “Twinkie Defense”.
