Jo Whiley Describes Unpleasant Eminem, Dr Dre Interview

Jo Whiley, the veteran BBC Radio presenter, revealed that an interview with Eminem and Dr. Dre was a particularly unpleasant experience that left her feeling "tiny and stupid." She described Eminem as shy and humble when she first interviewed him, but noted that his demeanor changed significantly after gaining fame, especially during the joint interview with Dr. Dre. Whiley said the duo's playful attitude during that later interview undermined her professional confidence. This candid revelation was shared on her Dig It podcast with Zoe Ball, where they discussed moments of feeling starstruck and difficult interviews. Whiley has also spoken openly about her struggles with anxiety throughout her career and her experiences with objectification in the media during the 90s. Despite challenges, she maintains a positive outlook on aging and continuing her broadcasting career, including her role as the main presenter for the BBC's Glastonbury Festival coverage.
