No, I see your point, and I do understand where you come from. I guess my point seem rather one-sided. However, I meant this, if people DO like Eminem soley for his looks, then that’s their perogative, not yours, you missed that point I made.

I fully understand how annoying it is when bashers come here and just bash you for saying things like that, but don’t let that stuff bother you, you got heart and that’s what counts. They are just superficial, I see what you mean, but that’s still their choice.

I know a lot of models out there are only liked cuz of their T&A, (Victoria Secret ones that is, the rest of the models don’t really have any.) But overall, it’s their choice, so it doesn’t matter.

I’d like to add this. Since I have started writing for Gavin’s blog in 2003, i have been facing those little girls’ (who are not about Eminem’s music but only about his looks) hatred. Some of them even kept spamming the site.
There is nothing wrong with liking Eminem’s looks. I like his looks, i already said it i think that he is a handsome man. However, I have a problem with little 12 year old girls who come up with some groupie manners, claiming ‘Eminem is mine’ when he could be their dad, saying they are “fans” when they don’t know any of his songs and then start beefing and insulting me because I wrote an article about him. I have experienced this for years and also on my personal website. I think you understand why i am fed up with such behaviors.

Please try to understand where i come from.

If Eminem turned ugly tomorrow, it wouldn’t change anything to my passion for his music. I have reviewed so many artists who are probably not that handsome, but who cares. It is all about the music. If Em was less handsome, maybe he’d attract less garbage fans.

X, like Janice, I think you totally missed my point. I am not against people who find Eminem handsome. I find him handsome too. I am against people who ONLY care about his looks and miss the brilliant artist he actually is.

Oh yah before I forget, don’t take it personally, since it only shows you care about a topic that wasn’t meant to be taken seriously at that extent.

Also, but.. didn’t you just post a “Beautiful Eminem” pic not too long ago?

Seriously, that’s a good topic to talk about, but also the fact is, Janice had read your statement. It’s just that she finds it really mean for you to bash on people as a whole, just cuz of a difference in opinion. Despite people liking Eminem for his lyrical prowess or whatever, it doesn’t mean he’s cool because of it.

Also, the concert that Eminem had when he dissed a girl like that, seriously, if the world has become so heartless to things like that and find that very cool, then seriously society has reached an all time low.

Why is it that people can be heartfelt when Eminem raps about his daughter, but when a fan which is the basis of what makes him who he is talks about how good looking he is, gets dissed for no reason whatsoever, it’s praised like popcorn?

It’s always like this. Until it happens to you, it’s just all funny and nothing big, but if it’s something directed to you, then all of a sudden, “OMGOMGOMG! BLASPHEMY!” I’m saying this for everyone, not just you or if you feel it’s directed towards you.

People that have no respect for people aren’t ‘cool,’ okay. It’s seriously being a society sellout to just constantly be a ‘badass.’ To be a real ‘rebel’ and to be ‘new’ is to be nice and courteous. That’s where the whole ‘hater’ thing came about, people were jealous, saying mean comments to people for no reason or for people who made it, and then there was no ‘love.’ But where’s the love now when people have a different opinion? Is the love flowing like hallmark cards, or is it just being flushed down the drain?

No hesitation here honey , If he lost all his money and both freakin legs I’d still feel the same way about him. I respect his talent and his message and his strength , not his ass or cute face …. oh and I’m a girl !– Tracey from Needles CA

If Eminem wold be ugly i would still soport him the same way i do now. When i first herd his music a year ago i didnt even know what he looked like but i listend to him all the time. I dont think hes got evil eyes so hes not cute to me. Theres no way id ever want to marry him (maybe only if he would be black). I think that there are much more musicians out there who havent bean discoverd yet. If Eminem would be pour he would be one of those whos family enjoy them sing. Eminem cant lose everything cause something noone can lose is talent. He can loose his fortune but not his abiliety to sing.
But im still confused cause i dont know if i am his fan or not. After 3 days of learning about him i discoverd that his a better dad to Hailie then my parents are to me. Hes story makes me sad.
Do you think im he’s fan?

Sorry if i spell the words wrong but im not English or American. i’m from Estonia where they dont use English. But everyone loves Eminem there.

A girl who only wants to have sex with Em and who is not interested in his music is not a fan as far as I am concerned. What are your thoughts, Janice?

Janice, OBVIOUSLY, you have not read my article CAREFULLY. No, I did not bash anybody who finds Eminem cute! I find him cute and many of my fellow fans find him cute too…we all happen to say it but we are not only FOCUSED on his looks. I do correspond with a 14 year old fellow fan who is as much interested in hip hop as i am…and she has sth else to say than “i wanna have Em’s babies”…we do share a lot of things and even on other rappers…i also do chat with lots of other very young ppl, boys and girls who really like the music. So it is not a question of maturity or not…I am against this groupie stuff…i have taken some very mean insults as a supportive female fan of Eminem and i think it is due to such behaviors from silly girls like those mentioned in my article.

I am not being hypocritical. I don’t have to agree with each statement. I do speak my mind, whether you like it or not.

I did read your article carefully. In fact, you called anyone who only likes Eminem for his looks “garbage” fans. I think young girls may have started liking him because he was cute and just enjoy his music. They are not mature enough to realize his contributions to the Hip-Hop genre. So what if they say they want to have his baby, that is their comment. Would they still be a fan if he was not cute, of course not, but that does not make them any less of a fan now. I just find it hypocritical of you to bash anyone who is a fan when you yourself have posted about how you do not like haters and people who judge you.
