Rap hardman Eminem rejected the temptation of kissing a luscious porn star - because he was scared of infuriating his ex-wife.

The OSCAR-winning hip-hop star recruited flesh flasher GINA LYNN to dance up close and personal for him in the video for his song Superman, which appears exclusively on his 8 MILE DVD.

But while the Lose Yourself rapper had the chance to steal a kiss from his busty blonde co-star during filming earlier this year (03), he chose to forgo the opportunity for fear of offending his ex-wife KIM, with whom he has an on-off romance.

Gina says, "On the rooftop scene I went to give him a kiss, like our faces were so close 'cause he was singing to me and I saw him just pull away.

"Nobody else noticed, but I knew and the manager's like, 'Why'd you pull away from her? and he's like, 'Oh my God, my wife would kill me.'"

But Eminem's wishes get through the shoot without any liplocking action went ungranted - eager Gina decided to take what she wanted without his permission.

She adds, "I snuck a kiss under the covers. He had no choice, he just had to stay there."
