Eagle-eyed Eminem fans have spotted a familiar face in the background of the rapper’s latest music video.
The ‘Lose Yourself’ singer left fans feeling emotional when he dropped the music video for his new song, ‘Temporary’, last night (October 3).
The song is dedicated to Em’s daughter, Hailie Jade, and the video features numerous pictures and clips of Eminem and Hailie throughout the years.

Over the scenes, Em says: “A lot of people ask me ‘am I afraid of death?’
“The truth is, the thing that scares me the most is not being able to say all the things I want to say to you when I’m no longer here. So this song is for Hailie, for when that day comes.”
The clips of Hailie getting older are interspersed with scenes from her wedding day, which took place earlier this year as she tied the knot with her partner, Evan McClintock.
On the day Eminem’s video was released, Hailie and Evan announced they’re expecting their first child.

As if that wasn’t enough to put fans on the verge of tears, Eminem gave us a closer insight to his relationship with Hailie in one particular clip in which he saw his daughter for the first time in her wedding dress on the big day.
The clip shows Em taking off his sunglasses and reaching out to hug Hailie with a look of shock and awe on his face, before he steps back and fully takes in her dress.
It’s a captivating moment, but some viewers were able to tear their eyes away to take in the wider scene, which is when they caught a glimpse of Eminem’s ex-wife, Kim Scott.
Kim and Em were married twice throughout their relationship, in 1999 and 2006, but they ultimately called it quits in 2007.
The pair share Hailie, who in 2014 praised her parents for pushing her to be the person she is, and for giving her ‘all the support to achieve’ what she had by that time.
Kim is only visible for a brief moment in the video, recognizable by her arm tattoo, but can be seen entering the room in the background as Em steps back to take a look at Hailie.
A clip of the moment featuring Kim was shared on Twitter, with viewers left impressed that anyone was able to spot her.

“Damn I was wondering who that was in the back that’s wild,” one viewer commented, as another added: “Bruh do you have bionic eyes?! Cuz [how the f**k] did you spot that s**t. It’s far, blurry and nanoseconds long.”
While Hailie’s mother’s appearance is only short, the video documenting Eminem’s relationship with his daughter has received high praise from fans, many of who admitted to ‘crying their eyes out’ over the scenes.
