| I've often wondered what Eminem might have in | | | | (made in Detroit), or a tin sign of a Remington |
| his house. I wonder what decor a rapper from | | | | Shotgun and Duck. I have no clue if he drove a |
| Detroit would want. I read his bio in several | | | | Ford or went hunting, but I do know these are |
| places, watched his movie 8 Mile and I've thought | | | | big things in Michigan. And if he is a hunter, maybe |
| about this a lot. I actually grew up a block from 7 | | | | he likes Deer things - a Deer Key Rack, or a shelf |
| Mile. I think my life was quite a bit different than | | | | with a moose head. |
| what I read about him, but still, I visualize 8 Mile, I | | | | I picture him in a kitchen with some corny things - |
| know I traveled daily down 8 Mile's east and west | | | | I know he has the best appliances and cabinetry |
| side on my way to school (which was across | | | | available, and maybe his counters are costly |
| town for me). | | | | granite imported from who knows where. But I |
| I have some collectible items that I imagine would | | | | just hope he has a Kitchen Fairy on a Pie to bring |
| suit him. I might be way off the mark. I'd like to | | | | it all down to reality. And a Half Eaten Apple Salt |
| think someone like him would not indulge in mega | | | | and Pepper Set. Those fans he raps to, they are |
| bucks for sofas, paintings and extreme high ticket | | | | more likely have that in their kitchen than an |
| items because he's seen success, but rather | | | | original Andy Warhol painting. |
| would want to live amongst a more | | | | Well, maybe not. We don't mind our celebrities |
| down-to-earth collection or decor. I've read | | | | living it up to the hilt. We just want to relate to |
| descriptions of his early years as being part of | | | | them and in Eminem's particular case, he's carved |
| the "white lower-class experience". Somehow, this | | | | himself a space in the limelight that draws |
| doesn't line up with a home decked out from | | | | attention from ALL walks of life, not just those in |
| fancy Design Center furnishings, but oh well. This | | | | his newly acquired (hopefully) wealthy class. I just |
| is my fantasy: | | | | hope he keeps some reminders of those early |
| I think Eminem should have his walls covered with | | | | years by surrounding himself with some of the |
| tin signs - memorabilia - like one for Ford Trucks | | | | simple delights around. |
