Eminem fans watch him cry 'for the first time' after being told he's becoming a grandad in emotional new video
Eminem fans are delighted for the veteran rapper after he gets told he's becoming a grandad in an emotional new music video.
Viewers said it was the 'first time' they've ever seen the 51-year-old 'cry' as his daughter Hailie Jade Scott delivers the good news.
In the music video for 'Temporary', Eminem is sat outside on the patio as the 28-year-old hands over a blue jersey that reads 'Grandpa 1'.
With the whole thing being filmed, the dad-of-three looks visibly stunned as the pair share an intimate moment.

Hailie Jade, who married her long-term partner Evan McClintock earlier this year, also shows him an ultra scan of the baby.
As the Grammy-winning artist from Detroit takes a look at the picture, fans think they've witnessed a first as his eyes well up.
Earlier into music video, he also appears to cry on his daughter's wedding day.
A shocked Eminem then holds the image up to the camera and looks like the proudest dad/soon-to-be grandad in the world.
Commenting on the video, one person said: "Eminem crying is the last thing I expected to see... Dad and daughter bond is truly amazing... Loved this song."
"This is the first time I've actually seen Eminem start crying. You can see it under his glasses," a second penned.
"The hardest rapper alive is crying. I am crying right now," a third said.
"It wasn't Slim Shady, Eminem, or Marshall, it was father to daughter. Can't wait for the follow up song for his grand child soon to come! Congratulations," wrote a fourth.
At the start of the music video, Eminem plays old videos of dad and daughter when they were younger.
"A lot of people ask me, am I afraid of death? The truth is, I think what scares me the most is not being able to say all the things I wanna say to you when I'm no longer here," he begins.
"So this song is for Hailie, for when that day comes."
Eminem then asks: "Where is Hailie? Where is she at?"
"This ain't Hailie," she says, before her dad asks: "Who is it?"
"It's a monster," the girl replies while.
All while, Eminem raps about the idea of him, one day, no longer being here, saying: "Yeah, so Hailie Jade, I wrote you this song to help you cope with life now that I'm gone.
"How should I start? Just wanna say, look after Alaina, Stevie, and Uncle Nate, and, sweetie, be strong, I know I was your rock.
"And I still am, saying goodbye is just not ever easy. But why you crying? Just stop Hailie, baby, dry your eye, this is not forever."
