is he really still that famous?

Postby shadymathers313 » Jan 31st, '12, 04:37

Em always talks about how he cant be a normal person because of his fame. cant go to the grocery store, the park or whatever. Basically anything out in public where there will be people. Now obviously i dont follow Em around everyday and pictures from paparazzi's never turn up online so what is his deal? we see celebs walking around being normal everyday. people, mainly actors and athletes that i would say are more famous/culturally relevant at this point in time. focusing on THIS POINT IN TIME. Obv back in the early 2000's he was probably top 5 most famous persons in the world but now his star has kind of died down. most of his fans are older now he isnt always in the news. so basically my point is, does Em make to big a deal about not being able to live a normal life now? can he really not go food shopping without being swarmed by people? i doubt that.

what do you guys think?

Eminem is known to exaggerate a lot of things.

He said in 2009 that if he's feeling "crazy" he'll go to the grocery store or 7/11 or the gas station by himself, but that he doesn't like going into places with more than a few people because there's a really good chance he'll be recognized. If even one person comes up and asks for a photo or an autograph or a conversation, what do you think's going to happen? Everyone else is going to stare, crowd around, ask if they can get something from him too, even if they don't know who he is or don't like him, and before you know it, he's surrounded.

Definitely. I mean, even if Em never came back, people would still point him out. Basically 1999 - 2001 locked his life into that zone for good. He has a very recognizable face, as well.

He is just a kind of person that likes to be left alone, I guess.
And he is that famous, just find the video where Em shows up at Drakes or Rihannas concert. People go ballistic and make more noise than Drake or Riri ever got. He is a God. And he hates it. Fuck life, man.

There are people like Rihanna who doesn't mind much about photographers and fans. You can see pics of her everywhere, shopping, in the beach, walking, partying...

Eminem just doesn't like that, an also he lives in Detroit, is not the same than be in L.A. It seems he is pretty much in his house or in the studio.

of course he's still that famous.he didn't release an album for year and half now and just look how many facebook likes he has.that's some major power... the second most followed person is rihanna but she releases a new single every fucking month..look at his twitter.he doesn't tweet at all but he still gets 8 million likes.when he releases a new album next year he's going to sell a shitload of albums again .he's lucky to have this MASSIVE following.I go on forums people mention him like everyday without a reason
lol if eminem lived in L.A you would see how many paparazzi pictures we would get every day.in detroit there are no paparazzi.that was smart of him to live there with his kids.because you know those scumbags would follow Hailie everywhere.not because she is his daughter but because the girl is very beautiful.
he doesn't give a shit about that.he left his mark on hip hop and pop culture long time ago and he's a legend.
still wish he would get out more tough.like how he never gets bored of being only in studio and in his house ? I know I would
