It is no secret that Eminem (Marshall Bruce Mathers III) and his daughter, Hailie Jade, share an incredibly close bond. Fans have been given a glimpse into their relationship over the years through interviews and the rapper’s songs. However, when he released the music video for his latest track, “Temporary,” no one expected to see him overcome with emotion — and seeing this has melted even the coldest hearts.
The music video shows us clips of Eminem and Hailie Jade throughout the years. The rapper is an incredibly doting father; we can see how much he loves his little girl. As she grows up before our eyes, we see the father and daughter dance together at her wedding to Evan McClintock, and then we see Hailie surprising her dad with a new sweatshirt. But this is not just any sweatshirt because the word “Grandpa” is visible.
The influencer also hands her father a scan of her first child, and Eminem is crying. We have no further updates at this time about when Hailie and Evan’s baby is due, but what we do have are the reactions from fans who have been eager to share their thoughts.
Fans Freak Out Over Seeing Eminem Crying
The video’s comment section is filled with messages of support for Hailie Jade and her pregnancy. Still, there have also been many who are focused on her father’s strong emotional reaction when he learned he was going to be a grandparent. “The hardest rapper alive is crying. I am crying right now,” a comment reads. “Eminem crying? Now I’m crying? No you’re crying,” another person shared.
Other reactions include, “Seeing Eminem cry “LITERALLY” got tears in my eyes and i’m proud of that…not even kidding,” “Nothing hurts more than seeing Eminem cry,” and “Seeing Eminem crying is the most human thing I’ve ever seen.”
It’s true: it’s not often we get to see someone like Eminem be so honest with his emotions and this moment is so special because of it.
