His palms are sweaty.
The man who broke into Eminem’s Detroit home two different times has been convicted of first-degree home invasion and aggravated stalking, The Post can confirm.
Matthew David Hughes, 32, was convicted in a Macomb County, Mich., court on Wednesday, May 7. He is scheduled to be sentenced on June 17.
The case stemmed from an incident in August 2024 where Hughes broke into the “Lose Yourself” rapper’s property in Clinton Township, a northern suburb of Detroit.
Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, was at home at the time of the break-in but did not make contact with the assailant. The rapper was also in the courtroom when Hughes’ conviction was handed down this week, according to Macomb Daily.
“People long for fame, they want fame,” Assistant Prosecutor Steven Fox told the jury on Wednesday, per the outlet. “But fame can put you in a bubble.”
“That’s the life that he has to live in,” Fox added of the “Mockingbird” rapper. “Why? Because of men like Matthew Hughes.”
Before the home invasion last August, Hughes used a brick to break into the “8 Mile” actor’s same property in 2020. The pair came face-to-face during that incident when Eminem, who had been sleeping at the time, awoke to find his stalker.
Hughes then reportedly threatened “to kill” the Grammy-winning artist.
“When Mr. Mathers asked him why he was there, he was told by Mr. Hughes that he was there to kill him,” a responding officer testified during Hughes’ 2020 home invasion trial, per the Detroit Free Press.
Eminem’s stalker was ultimately charged with second-degree home invasion after taking a plea deal and was sentenced to five years of probation. He was released on parole in May 2024.
“Marshall Mathers has taken extraordinary steps to protect himself and his family,” Fox said on Wednesday. “Security 24/7. And each time that step has had to increase, but only as the result of one person’s actions, Matthew Hughes. The world becomes smaller. He’s on an island.”
“That’s the fear, that’s the concern, that’s the intimidation,” the assistant prosecutor added. “That’s the threat posed specifically by Matthew Hughes.”
The Post has reached out to Eminem’s rep for comment.
Meanwhile, Eminem was not the only celebrity to make headlines this week for problems with a suspected stalker.
Jennifer Aniston, 56, was also an alleged target on Monday when a 48-year-old man, Jimmy Wayne Carwyle, crashed his car through the gates of her $21 million Bel Air mansion on Monday afternoon.
The “Friends” actress was home at the time of the incident, and Carwyle was ultimately arrested and charged with felony vandalism. He appeared shirtless in court on Thursday and was ordered to undergo a mental evaluation.
