AceShowbiz - Eminem has just created a storm on the Internet. Stans literally went wild when the rapper casually debuted dark hair and a shocking scruffy beard while attending the premiere of "The Defiant Ones" in Los Angeles on Thursday night, June 22.
Em has taken to Instagram to share a photo of him rocking the new beard. Going all black in a leather jacket and jeans, the phenomenal rapper put his arms around fellow rappers Dr. Dre and Kendrick Lamar's shoulders. "Just a couple of guys from Compton and one from Detroit. With a beard. #thedefiantones," he cheekily captioned the pic.
The beard and the dark hair were surely shocking as it made Em look drastically different and almost unrecognizable. The Grammy winner was known for his signature blond hair and clean-shaven, age-defying look. While Em casually dumped his baby-faced image and debuted his new look like it was nothing, fans freaked out on Twitter.
A fan considered the beard as a sign of new music from Em. "Eminem has a f**king beard he musta really been in his cave cookin up the dopest rhymes for months," @TshakW tweeted.
