Eminem Now Practically Taking Credit For Bruno Stunt

I'm no Eminem fan, but even a hater like myself can recognize when the object of her contempt is going way overboard to try to convince the world that he's finally grown something resembling a sense of humor about himself. The AP reports that Eminem is proud of Sunday's Bruno-butt stunt at the MTV Movie Awards and that he's "thrilled that we pulled it off better than we rehearsed it":

He "went back to his hotel room and laughed for three hours." Alone. In the dark.

Got to give him props for commitment to a joke. Cultivating a whole persona of homophobic rapper who now can't release anything that isn't complete shit and also has a bad sense of humour about himself at award shows? That's dedication.

That screenshot is going to haunt my dreams. Bruno aside, Eminem may very well have actual Benjamin Button disease because he looks like a 12-year-old boy, even more than usual. (12-year-old boy or Sam Ronson, one of those.)

to say three straight hours is kind of... an exact amount of time. I wonder if he had a stopwatch. NO WAIT, he had a stop watch... that's how well this man rehearsed. a professional to the EXTREME!!

WHAT IS WRONG WITH EMINEM'S FACE?? Did he have some terrible plastic surgery or something? Because ever since his return he's looked terrifying.

He gained like 50-75 pounds between that last album and this new one; then he lost it all last year really fast before his first single came out.

Yeah, his face is a nightmare, but why does he need to pose in every picture like a 14 year old asshole?

He seems emaciated. Probably put on a lot of weight and dropped it too fast without adding any muscle.

And it's a pity. He...was hot. (I'm sorry.)

Ehh I don't believe this. He's not that great of an actor (see 8 Mile).
