Brittany Murphy says her ex-lover Eminem is a "wonderful human being".

The actress - who had a brief romance with the rapper after meeting him on set of '8 Mile' - says, despite his hellraising reputation, the rapper is one of the sweetest people she has ever met.

She said: "I don't like talking about him, because I respect his privacy, but I will say that he is a wonderful human being."

Brittany - who also dated Ashton Kutcher before he married current wife Demi Moore - has also admitted there is a price to fame.

The 29-year-old star says one of the main dangers with being an actress is that you can attract obsessive and scary fans.

She said: "Good things happened when I became famous but I also got my first stalker. It's not an experience I'd recommend. But these things can go with the job. And I love my job."
