Eminem, 'Family Guy' Stewie teaming up

Eminem has revealed that he is teaming up with Family Guy character Stewie Griffin to co-host an evening of Fox's "animation domination" programming block.

The rapper will appear as an animated version of himself alongside the meglomaniac baby in various segments throughout the network's May 17 lineup.

In a statement, the rapper said: "It was a thrill to work with Stewie. I'm a big fan of talking babies and their humour."

He has also been confirmed to perform a three-night stint on Jimmy Kimmel Live starting this Friday to mark the release of his comeback album Relapse, which is available from May 18.
