Eminem’s ‘SNL’ Promos: Watch Him Play The Straight-Faced Straight Man
Eminem returns to Saturday Night Live tomorrow (November 2) as musical guest for the sixth time, on the episode hosted by Kerry Washington. Ahead of the show, the “Rap God” appears in a pair of promos alongside Washington, as she plays the bubbly first-timer and Slim Shady just stares stoically at the camera.
Not that Em doesn’t have a goofy side — during a live ESPN appearance in September, he pretended to be in a drugged-out haze as college football commentators tried to interview him about his new music. These SNL promos? Much less awkward. Check it out up top, and peep Shady’s tweet about the promos below.

The SNL guest spot comes just three days before Em’s knotty, hyper-meta, rapid-fire The Marshall Mathers LP 2 drops.
