Eminem never misses an opportunity to show off his sense of humor.
The legendary rapper celebrated his 51st birthday on Tuesday, October 17, and took to X (formerly Twitter) the following day to thank fans for all the love and birthday wishes he received.
“Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes!!!” Eminem wrote, before jokingly telling everyone, “Fuck it!!!!!,” along with a photo of himself wearing his birthday hat.
Rapper and longtime friend Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson was among the fellow hosts who sent him a message on his special day.
“Happy birthday to the living legend @Eminem,” the 48-year-old In Da Club star posted on X (formerly Twitter), along with several photos of the pair together. “I love you to death man, God bless you.” […] I wish you much more.’

Joyner Lucas, with whom Eminem collaborated on the song Lucky You (2018), was also one of the people who took the time to write Eminem on X.
The I’m Not Racist star actually took the time to share how influential Eminem has been to him over the years.
“He was the only rapper I wanted approval from. “Maybe it’s because he started my style musically and this guy was like a god to me from the age of 13,” the Worcester native wrote, Massachusetts.
“Marshall, happy birthday and thank you for your contribution to the game AND to my life,” Lucas (born Gary Maurice “Joyner” Lucas Jr.) concluded the post, which also included a video of her “Lucky You” music video.
In recent weeks, Eminem (born Marshall Bruce Mathers III) has expressed his support for his beloved Detroit Lions as his favorite football team won five of the first six games of the 2023-24 season.
After their last win on Sunday, October 15th over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20-6, he showed his excitement on X and wrote: “Lion pride!!” Detroit, stand up!! @Lions.’
Last week, he was spotted making a rare public appearance with his daughter Hailie Jade Scott at the Lions’ game against the Carolina Panthers at Ford Field.
The St. Joseph, Missouri, native, who also grew up in the Detroit area, shared a photo of himself at the game, flexing his biceps in his stadium suite, as well as a video of himself cheering to the team set to his hit song Lose Yourself (2002).
“Detroit strong!!! Let’s fucking watch!!!!’ He captioned the post.
