Speaker 4 (01:09):
Not the candy Oh?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Oh okay.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
The Marshall mathersh Okay.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
All right, Caitlin's Entertainment Report. He's on the Bread show.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
The music fans of a certain age time for I
Cream may remember the days when Eminem ran through the
streets of New York with a bunch of bleached blonde
baggy Jean lookalikes for an iconic performance of the Real
Slim Shady at the two thousand Video Music Awards. Now
twenty five years later, he did another Stan lookalike context
contest in New York for the Young ins.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
It is now a term that has kind of worked its.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Way into the English language, but Stan is the meaning
of an obsessed fan, and I feel like we use
it for all kinds of things now, even for like
items that were very into The word was officially added
to the Oxford English Dictionary back.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
In twenty seventeen as well.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
But in the song's memorable eight minute music video, the
actor Devin Sawa, who was a lot of nineties babies
First Crush, he also played Casper. At one point he
plays the Stan, the obsessive Eminem fan in the music video,
and he writes him and writes him, and m doesn't
respond until later.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
It was it was very much a moment in time.
Who was on that? To Dido?
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
There are some eminem stories that I love. I don't
know if they're all true. That what I think is true.
I think I've confirmed or it's been said before, but
that my name is was written as a dare like
a friend of his said, you can't write a number
one song in five minutes or an hour or something
like that, and it was a short period of time,
and then he did it, and he did the second one.
And I've asked a bunch of executives is and no
one's been able to confirm it for me. But you know,
(02:45):
when artists are brand new, brand brand brand new, and
it's not like it used to be. But they'll do
like promo tours where they'll take the label will take
them to radio stations all over the country and bring
them in and hey, this is our new artist so
and so and you know, well, you know, want you
to hear the song. And then it's always awkward. They
have to do this like, you know, twice a day
(03:05):
or you know, twice a city, five times a day,
all day, where it's like hi, program director, and then
they sit in the office they listen to the song
while the artist sits there and stares at you, and
then at the end it's like, oh, this was great,
you know whatever. So I guess the first one that
Eminem ever did was in New York and the label
met him there and in the lobby of the very
first one he ever did, he said, this is I'm
not doing this is the only one I'm doing ever,
(03:25):
and they're like ever, He's like, no, I'll do this.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
That's it. We're never doing this again.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
And it's like okay, dude, like you're not going to
do a promo too, Like oh, and he was a nobody.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Well, to the.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Best of my knowledge, the only time you've ever been
back at radio station is when he chose to go
back in a radio station. Otherwise he like, doesn't he didn't,
I love it, I'm not doing this right, And he didn't,
and he was right.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
He did, he was right, And here he is and
now he's celebrating twenty five years of Stan Devin Swa
actually showed up to the lookalike contest with his son,
who took a picture with Eminem. It was a very
much a full circle moment. And he is doing all
kinds of fun things to celebrate that anniversary. This year,
BT has officially hit pause on two of its most
iconic shows, the BET Hip Hop Awards and the Soul
(04:09):
Train Awards, both getting suspended indefinitely, according to the network.
The BET CEO confirmed it in a statement, saying, we
have a team that's actively thinking about where those award
shows might best live as the media climate continues to evolve.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
They aren't gone.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
We also still have the NAACP Image Awards and the
Stellar Awards, and he said it's not about them going away,
it's about us reimagining them. Of course, the BET Hip
Hop Awards launched in two thousand and six, while the
Sole Train Awards traces back to nineteen eighty seven, and
for decades, both shows have celebrated artists and influencial influential
figures contributions I can speak to Black culture and music.
(04:47):
The ogb ET Awards recently celebrated twenty five years since
its inception.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
So we will see.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
They also are reviving, as they told us one of
six and Park one of six and sports is the
new th thing that they got going on, and I
know I would switch back from TRL to that, So
I guess this whole report is just for old millennials.
Speaker 2 (05:07):

Speaker 1 (05:08):
Time from school and go back and forth between one
O six in Park and TRL.

the people to watch the Today's show, grew up watching TRL.
