Jan 28, 2026 at 4:48 PM Argument about her clothes. He cared. She was a brat. And kids lie, especially when they are spies with ex wife of the guy who cant wait to get some dirt on him. I heard real life stories like this for mundane people, let alone celebrities. And I know a lot of people who had their parents slap them for things like not finishing up their plate, but are generally caring parents and have good relationship with their now grown kids. Not something I support, but not too weird.
Jan 28, 2026 at 4:49 PM At the end of the day, his story is a something from nothing, regardless of missteps during the process. He was supposed to be a crackhead lowlife, not someone I quote daily.
Jan 28, 2026 at 4:51 PM And JLG, seeing how you are quick to fight someone, I wonder if you had a similar upbringing where you see violence as an argument solver.
Jan 28, 2026 at 4:52 PM oh give me a break Spatula. Ex wife wanted dirt on him? She was married to him twice and in a sexual relationship with him for almost 20 years at that point, and had only ever done like one interview throughout his entire career. Eminem has warped your mind. He was the horrible, abusing cheat that left her home alone with a baby whilst he was out on tour sleeping with 15 year old children. No wonder she did some of the things she did. And yet she still has never really publicly shamed him except one interview where she admitted he couldn’t get it up without having to use Viagra. You have been gaslighted by your own hero.
Jan 28, 2026 at 4:58 PM Kim probably didnt want to risk any custody and whatnot since Eminem has great lawyers. I dont think either of them was innocent there. But the fact is he had an upbringing of a guy who sucks d----s to get high, but ended up being a wordsmith who got his life together. Those are facts. Nobody is saying he was an alien to that world and was immaculate conception, but he made it. Kudos Em.
Jan 28, 2026 at 4:59 PM and that’s why i, why many, still defend him like he’s a demigod, even when the fact that he’s only human like the rest of us is glaringly obvious
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:03 PM And another thing whilst we’re on the topic that kinda ties back into what you said about Paul making him play a character. Kim said in her 2007 interview that the night before Eminem had text her saying “I can’t believe you’re doing this interview and putting our personal life out in public”(which is highly ironic coming from him lmao). But it made me realise that he was well capable of using a cell phone and writing texts in 2007. So this weird act he tries putting out there like “I don’t know how to use phones or apps, I type “to”as “2” and “your” as “ur” and I still use a blackberry and take blurry selfies hehe” is just another outright lie. And for what?
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:04 PM The end does not justify the means, but your perspective is an extremely common form of admiration... one that has been deliberately and meticulously rendered, and just as meticulously maintained, for a reason. Don't blame you for it. That pitbull underdog image is there on purpose, to do precisely what it's doing.
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:08 PM I do admire him for many reasons, but its a common fallacy to assume if someone admires someone they also think they are flawless. Humans are complex. As for the tech savy thing, its an act, at least was in 2009. In 2000 hes saying "its ken kannif on the internet" though phones in 07 and smartphones are huge difference. Maybe he just out of touch. But hes openly online these days, mentioned in several post MMLP2 songs
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:11 PM modern day andy kaufman trolling? nah, forum artist - @JMG i feel like em lives by the same philosophy
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:12 PM I don't smile because I hate it, even though others like it. That's why I don't smile. His reason may be the same. When I was younger, my mom used to say what's with the s-----y smirk when I smiled.
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:18 PM Nobody said anything about any aspect of your belief other than that it's misplaced. And human nature -- yours or Em's -- is not under debate here. Just commodification. You claim to admire his tenacity and success. That's fine, and to be expected, since it's carefully cultivated and curated specifically to elicit admiration, particularly now. Maybe all you know and admire about Em is public, and so you base your admiration on this ample public info. But other people actually know the guy, and have for decades. so maybe there's a s--- ton more to know about what you say you openly admire that isn't widely known, and isn't admirable in the least.
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:18 PM 110 pills is f---ing insane. I truly believe that the number is false One would 1000000000 percent overdose off of 110 vs lmao Pluses the damage it'd do to the liver.
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:20 PM He hates his chin. That’s why he’s always covering it with his hand, especially after laughing.
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:29 PM Over-fixating on Eminem and his flaws as an individual is just being an inverse stan though. To what extent are we really moving on from our standom if we're all still so (to varying degrees) invested in him as a person? There are deeper questions that never come up in this thread. Case-in-point, to get off the stan plantation (stantation?) for a moment: is the underdog myth one truly worth drawing inspiration from and imitating? Where does it come from? Certainly it didn't begin with 8 Mile. Not to get too high falutin about it, but I suspect it has very deep roots in Christianity, possibly with Jesus being the ultimate underdog.
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:31 PM the fact that he made it is not something cultivated and curated. he is one of the most selling artists of all times. that's not a curated image, thats just numbers. but I dont even care about that. I think he's a brilliant lyricist, far ahead of anyone else for that matter. that's also not curated. and you assume things we don't know about him are worse than what we do know. maybe we don't know a lot of good things too. I don't think I would ever want to actually meet Eminem as a person, but what I admire about him is something organic, not an image that was being sold. I can see through the image.
Jan 28, 2026 at 5:31 PM “Doin' my best just to not blow my cover Know it's all just a test, but I can't pass up this hunger” Can’t believe I let this midget get on a track with me. Lol
