Sia to donate money made from Eminem album to LGBT charity Singer-songwriter Sia has said that she will donate the money she makes from her contribution to Eminems new album The Marshall Mathers LP 2 to an LGBT charity. Eminem was forced to defend the use of homophobic words on his new album earlier this week, saying he has no issue with gay people. The rapper has been criticised for use of the word faggot in some tracks on the album, including Rap God which was previewed prior to the albums release. However, the Detroit rapper claims that his use of the word is not rooted in homophobia. Speaking to Huffington Post, Sia, who helped write the song Beautiful Pain on Eminems new album, will donate her proceeds from the sale of the album to homeless LGBT youth at the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Centre. Sia reportedly told the publication that she was under the impression that Eminem’s alter-ego Slim Shady was performance art, and a thing of the past, asserting that she does not believe that Eminem is actually homophobic. #Aguyswit
