Born in Hollis, Queens, he debuted in 1999 with Venni Vetti Vecci and its lead single " Holla Holla". In an undated television interview, the rapper said his daughter "has been my main, like source of drive and motivation, especially when she was first born and I didn't have a career, I didn't have money, I didn't have a place to live.Jeffrey Bruce Atkins (born February 29, 1976), better known by his stage name Ja Rule ( / dʒ ɑː/), is an American rapper, singer, songwriter and actor. That's something Eminem has always worked towards. "We are very close," she told The Daily Mailin 2018. Though incredibly private, she has given one brief interview about her father. Hailie's boyfriend who she met at university, Evan McClintock, also lives nearby.
Today, she lives in a four-bedroom house in Detroit, Michigan, minutes from where she grew up in her father's Clinton Township home. She is a bona fide Instagram influencer, sharing pictures of her puppies, her outfit choices and her fitness routines. Hailie joined Instagram in October 2016 and now boasts more than 1.5 million followers. And the teachers are really good about telling the kids, 'When Hailie's dad comes in, he's Hailie's dad, Mr Mathers'. "Even if I gotta deal with the craziness. "When they have plays, field trips, all that stuff, I don't miss them," he told Rolling Stone. Afterwards, Hailie moved on to Michigan State University, where she studied psychology and joined the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority.Įminem was always a hands-on dad, attending every school event even when he became famous. She graduated with honours in June 2014 and was crowned Homecoming Queen. While there, she was a member of the school's art club and played volleyball, as well as serving on the student council. Hailie had a fairly normal life as a teenager, attending Chippewa Valley High School in Clinton Township, Michigan. "I think my dad's gone crazy, yeah, Hailie, you right," he rapped. Eminem asked him to apologise for the comments, given Hailie was a teenager at the time, but Machine Gun Kelly took it to the microphone. In 2012, rapper Machine Gun Kelly called Hailie "hot as f**k" in a since-deleted tweet. It wasn't the only diss track Hailie wound her way onto.
"I don't know, but I don't want to grow up to be like Ja-Rule's little dirty-a**e kids," she responded. "Hailie, what do you want to be when you grow up, baby?" Eminem asked his daughter on the track. (Eminem had picked up an Oscar in 2003 for Best Original Song for the track Lose Yourself from 8 Mile, the dramatisation of his life story.) "We're gonna shove it up Ja-Rule's a**e." On this track, Eminem sings out to his daughter. (Previously, Ja-Rule had slammed Kim as a "known slut, what's Hailie gon' be when she grows up?") There was also the 2003 diss track Hailie's Revenge, in which Hailie joined her father on a song calling out Ja-Rule. "No more crying', wipe them tears/Daddy's here, no more nightmares." "I know you miss your dad when I'm gone/But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had," he raps. On Mockingbird, which was inspired by the lowest points in the Mathers' family history, Eminem apologised for any pain he had caused his daughter in the past. Hailie is also mentioned on Cleaning Out My Closet, in which Eminem raps about his estranged mother, telling her she'll never see her "beautiful" granddaughter again. Later on this track, he calls Hailie his reason for living and his saviour. "My baby girl keeps getting older/I watch her grow up with pride," Eminem raps. The most famous of which is Hailie's Song, which Eminem wrote for his daughter when she was seven. A post shared by Hailie Jade were other songs, too, that didn't feature Hailie's voice but rather her spirit, some 22 in total.
