 Around the time of recording  The Eminem Show'', Eminem also appeared in the semi-autobiographical movie  8 Mile  and produced its soundtrack. While he hasn't done much acting since, he won an  Academy Award  for the song "Lose Yourself". (He didn't go to the ceremony,  preferring to sleep instead.''
