Eminem's daughter Hailie showed support for her dad as he performed alongside the likes of Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre at the Super Bowl halftime show.
The Rap God was cheered on by thousands of people at SoFi Stadium in California for his performance yesterday, February 13, but while many people in the crowd were there as football fans looking to find out the result in the final game of the NFL season, Hailie admitted she was there specifically for the halftime concert.
The 26-year-old, who Eminem shares with his ex-wife Kim Scott, took to Instagram to share a series of images and videos from the major event, capturing the start of her dad's performance in the middle of the game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals.

This year's halftime show marked the first time hip-hop artists were the main performers in the slot, with Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre kicking things off with performances of The Next Episode and California Love.
Viewers were then treated to a surprise appearance from 50 Cent, who arrived on stage to sing In Da Club, before Mary J. Blige took over with performances of Family Affair and No More Drama.

Footage shared by Hailie shows the crowd then bursting into cheers as Eminem took the floor to perform Lose Yourself, after which he caused controversy by taking a knee in apparent tribute to former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick.
In a clip shared on her Instagram Story, Hailie filmed her dad as he raised his fist into the air and looked out into the crowd before starting to walk across the stage, all the while singing the lyrics to his award-winning song.

Hailie also shared a snap of herself smiling as she stood over the football field, alongside a caption in which she gave a shout-out to Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, writing 'here for the halftime show, staying for stafford'.
The 25-year-old's support for the Rams player appeared to pay off as the team scored a late touchdown to beat the Bengals 23-20, making the Rams the second team ever to win a Super Bowl in their own stadium.
Eminem is known to have a good relationship with his daughter and has even dedicated songs to her throughout his career, including the tracks Mockingbird and Hailie’s Song.
The rapper welcomed Hailie into the world on Christmas Day in 1995 and she has since gone on to graduate from Michigan State University with a degree in psychology.
