MTV forces Eminem to change offensive performance
20th of November
The following was reported by MJJSource, Michael Jackson’s official website:
After witnessing Eminem’s rehearsals for his performance at the MTV EUROPE MUSIC AWARDS on Wednesday, November 18th, 2004, MTV ordered Eminem to drop the derogatory Jackson parody, claiming that it would cause too much offence.
It was reported that Eminem had planned to wear a wig and false nose for his live performance of JUST LOSE IT, mocking Michael Jackson.
A source told Britain’s THE SUN newspaper, “Bosses stepped in when it became clear he (Eminem) was going overboard. He wanted to rub Jackson’s nose in his child molestation charges in front of a TV audience of millions. But MTV was not happy. They asked Eminem to scale things back and not humiliate Jackson. Eminem eventually agreed.”
Regardless of MTV’s warnings, Eminem still managed to succeed in bringing out 40 children with him onstage.
