Eminem, 53, Had Extra Special Thanksgiving With His Grandson Watching Him

Eminem delivered a memorable Thanksgiving performance during the Detroit Lions' matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

With all the excitement of the annual festivity, fans were treated to a spectacle blending football, music and holiday cheer as the music icon showcased an electrifying halftime set.

On Thursday, football fans tuned in to the action at Ford Field, eagerly watching the thrilling Thanksgiving showdown.

To lighten the mood, Detroit native Jack White hit the stage by kicking off the performance with "That's How I'm Feeling" from his 2024 album No Name.

Following this, the former White Stripes singer introduced his special guest, whom he described as "Detroit's own" before revealing the name.

Eminem had the crowd roaring with his hit "'Till I Collapse" while White provided electrifying accompaniment in the background.

Without a doubt, the duo's performance left the crowd in awe, sparking an outpouring of cheers from fans.

Online users even swooned over the moment, with some calling it "The BEST Lions halftime show."

"The EMINEM! Best halftime show from the Lions," another added.

"Amazingggggggggg, Eminem should be in charge of the Super Bowl halftime show too!!" a fan commented.

"Now that's a DETROIT halftime show!!!" a follower echoed.

Besides fans, the 15-time Grammy winner had a very special audience watching him in the crowd.

Eminem's daughter, Hailie Jade, brought her eight-month-old son Elliot as the mother and son witnessed the iconic performance live.

In a short Instagram clip, the 29-year-old cradled her son while donning matching blue outfits as they enthusiastically enjoyed the vibe of his set.

She can also be seen mouthing "Grandpa" to Elliot as the little one watched the rapper from afar.

"Happy Thanksgiving," she wrote.

NFL's official Instagram left a one-word comment saying "incredible."

Fans also got to see "The Real Slim Shady" singer's biggest fan and arguably his cutest one, too.

"The cutest supporter in the world goes to Elliot when he's cheering on his grandpa," one wrote.

"Little shady watching Slim Shady," a follower noted.

"Awwwww, he is watching grandpa so sweet!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!" a commenter added.

Besides the cute video, Hailee Jade also shared a family photo with her husband Evan McClintock, showing the three of them wearing Detroit Lions gear.

Eminem's daughter welcomed their son in March, a year after the couple's intimate wedding in Michigan.
