Eminem and Rihanna's "Love the Way You Lie" Video

Making for quite the anticipated release, Eminem and Rihanna launched their new music video for "Love the Way You Lie" on MTV on Thursday night (August 5).

Instantly becoming quite the hit, the passionate video features appearances by Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan - with the pair sharing a steamy smooch as Eminem and Rihanna sang in the background.

Talking about the video, Monaghan recently told MTV News, "I think we tried as hard as we could to not glorify the violence, to try and explain that this was a relationship that is by no means ideal and a relationship that probably should have ended a lot sooner than it did. The concept of 'Love the Way You Lie' was essentially a look at the relationship that Eminem was in with his wife, Kim, so I kind of felt like I was playing Eminem a little bit, and Megan Fox was kind of playing Kim.

"It's the story of them getting to know each other, and it's the story of their tumultuous relationship, and it was the story of the breakdown of their relationship," Dominic continued. "Ultimately, what I think he's trying to say in the song ... is that he should have walked away a little bit quicker than he did and not let it get as messy as it did."
