Eminem recently headlined the Concert for Valor in honor of veterans which took place on Veterans Day in Washington D.C.
Em has been no stranger to controversy over the last few days but dropping more than a few “f bombs” certainly didn’t help him get out of the doghouse.
He opened the show by saying “Happy Motherf—ing Veterans Day.”
Then things just went off from there. He used explicit language throughout the show and many people all over the world found it to be extremely disrespectful.
The Twitter reaction says it all.
Is it just us or does it seem strange that so many people are shocked by Eminem recently? He’s been doing this type of thing since the 90’s and still people haven’t figured it out.
They just need to relax that's just how EM is I am a veteran of the United States Marine Corps. and I watched the concert for valor and I didn't have problem with it I don't think any vets did for the fact that vets active and former still cus like crazy its just the way we talk. Hell our favorite word in the Marines was fuck we used it in every other sentence. Besides EM and Metallica were the realest people supporting the vets there. So people and press need to chill the fuck out. js
happy motherfucking veterans day?, so….he's em, this sht isn't that really bizar.
Why have eminem headline this show if you don't want eminem?? What a joke…. Have these people heard of eminem? The guy has been doing this forever. How is saying fuck disrespectful to veterans anyway? Relax people…. Fuck…
Exactly. If you don't want Eminem, we know what he's all about…don't hire him. He's being himself and if they didn't want f bombs,,,, hire Michael Bolton. ?…lol. rock on Em!
calm my sweetheart a Little anger….mmmmm.
Everyone knows that Eminem used the f-bomb in his lyrics. Accept it or don't schedule him. This is who he is.
well said
and thanks for your service
You're welcome
I don't think he was meaning to be disrespectful or rude . That's just him. I mean when have you not heard him curse. I wish I'd of been there cause I know I'd be the first one to say happy mother fucking veterans day right back. I think he was just trying to show love for the veterans
I agree press needs to chill! Eminem gonna do what he does…respect to all past present and future soldiers we as citizens are forever in your debt
Thanks man
