Eminem proved that he doesn’t mind hard work as he worked a shift at his Mom’s Spaghetti restaurant in Detroit – whose name references his 2002 hit track Lose Yourself.

Eminem delighted his fans after he showed up in person to serve customers spaghetti at the opening of his new restaurant in his hometown of Detroit.
The rapper, 48, posed for selfies at the Mom’s Spaghetti restaurant- whose name is a reference to lyrics from his 2002 hit track Lose Yourself, in which he rapped about vomiting up his mom’s spaghetti.
The name of the eatery is not a reference to mother Debbie Nelson, who he has had a troubled relationship with.
His fans shared selfies on Instagram which they took with the rapper, as he handed out grub from a serving window on Thursday in a grey hoodie over a white t-shirt.
Eminem, real name Marshall Mathers, shockingly flipped the middle finger to the camera in one snap.

One fan said alongside his selfie snap with the rapper: “Ready to die now.”
Fans lined several blocks ahead of the restaurant’s official 5 pm opening, with lots of people camping out since early morning, according to the Detroit Free Press.
The all spaghetti menu consists of just a few items including, spaghetti, spaghetti with meatballs, and a spaghetti sandwich.
The rapper announced the opening of his restaurant Monday on his official website.
He had previously opened a successful pop-up spaghetti restaurant in 2017 at The Shelter, a music venue at St. Andrew’s Hall in Detroit.

The pop-up, which is housed in a trailer, also made an appearance at Eminem’s 2018 performances at Coachella, Firefly and Governor’s Ball.
It was also used during the pandemic, when Eminem teamed up with Union Joints, to deliver Mom’s Spaghetti to frontline workers at hospitals.
Eminem’s manager, Paul Rosenberg, said: “We’ve had a lot of fun putting this project together with the folks at Union Joints, and the response from fans has been overwhelmingly positive.

“The previous pop-ups were really a test for us to determine whether there was enthusiasm for a regularly-occurring Mom’s Spaghetti spot that would be open all year long.
“We are really pleased to announce the arrival of the walk-up restaurant and adjacent upstairs store, called The Trailer, where fans can experience a uniquely-curated environment and obtain merch and other items from Eminem and his new pasta operation.”
The Trailer space is a reference to B. Rabbit’s trailer from the 2002 film starring Eminem, 8 Mile, and features merchandise, with Mom’s Spaghetti branding.
