You can obviously tell that he has a daughter, based on the completely rational lyrics he has about women.

Welp. I guess those food stamps don't need to buy diapers anymore.

I mean, I can't know for sure, but probably not. And maybe that has something to do with why she's turned out so well. Not the actual lyrics - those are horrible - but being honest about what he's said and done in the past.

I'm really interested to know if he's tried to keep her away from his music. I agree that he actually seems to have done a decent job as a father, but then there's the awkward fact that he literally has made money off of rap lyrics where he talks about murdering her mother.

How about meeting the boy that was raised on your music, meeting your daughter.

I agree with your general point that he seems like a decent dad in real life, but I wouldn't so easily dismiss those "few songs" as no big deal. It's not like he just wrote abstract songs about the joys of fatherhood or something; he included them by name in dozens of songs, some of which were full of violent and…

Hey kid, um, maybe skip the first couple of your dad's records if you haven't heard them already.

and she made available a picture of herself where she's wearing clothes, not using illegal narcotics/holding paraphinelia, and had made no other headlines I know of except for this age milestone.

When I was a wee lassie still learning how to put on makeup, my best friend's mom told me I needed to cool it with the evening eye shadow. This is the evening eye shadow to which she was referring.

Deadly serious.

If you're curious why this is notable to some people, Eminem's early music frequently mentioned Hailie as a baby/toddler. Most famously in the song '97 Bonnie and Clyde, which is a violent fantasy about murdering her mother and taking her on the run.

Say what you want about Eminem (and there is quite a lot to say), he seems to have raised a well-adjusted, smart, down-to-earth daughter and, from what I understand, a lot of that has to do with his actual involvement in her life and not just shuttling her off to her mother. I wonder how his other "daughter"…

What? She was prominently trotted out in his songs in the late nineties.

For example, I just learned that Eminem had a daughter.

I wish I had just learned that. Unfortunately, I knew he had a daughter, because he included a clip of her singing in "Bonnie & Clyde", in which he waxes philosophical about murdering her mother.

Just because we're old doesn't mean that we can't keep learning/growing as individuals.

For example, I just learned that Eminem had a daughter.

Here's a great way to feel old: Seeing questions from the current AP History test about events that happened after I took the AP History test.

I got a 5 on the AP US test and an 800 in the same SAT II subject. So I knew US history as well as any high school student could be expected. I don't remember any of it now. What a great educational model testing is.

All these years later and I'm still pissed at my AP English teacher. Her son was my best friend and she thought I was a bad influence on him so she had it out for me. First she accused me of cheating (in front of the class). I was able to prove I didn't but of course she never apologized. Then, she predicted (also in…
