Rapper and actress Eve recently opened up about a terrifying incident that occurred at a 2007 VMAs afterparty, where she believes she was drugged after leaving her drink unattended
In her newly released memoir, Who’s That Girl?, Eve reflects on the life-changing night and reveals how Janet Jackson stepped in to help her when she was at her most vulnerable.
Eve, known for hits like “Let Me Blow Ya Mind” and “Gangsta Lovin’,” described feeling disoriented and out of control after unknowingly consuming a spiked drink.
As the effects of the drug took hold, she recalled her emotions spiraling into panic.
“Missy [Elliott] came in to check on me, but I was just unable to collect myself,” Eve wrote in her memoir.
The rapper, who had never met Janet Jackson before, was shocked when the music icon entered the room and took immediate action.
“None of that mattered to Janet; she actually just sprang into action,” Eve explained, recounting how Jackson directed people to gather aspirin, water, hot sauce, and white bread.
The unconventional remedy worked wonders, helping Eve calm down.
“Basically, Janet Jackson saved my life,” she added.
This isn’t the first time Eve has shared the story. In 2018, she recounted the incident while co-hosting The Talk. During the show, she explained how she began feeling “crazy and not drunk” after consuming her drink.
“I knew immediately something was different,” she said, describing how the experience led to uncontrollable sobbing.
In a private room, friends tried to console her, but it was Jackson’s soothing voice and quick thinking that ultimately brought her back from hysteria
