  1. “I wrote you, but you still ain’t callin…”

  2. Damn he is more airbrushed than your average centerfold model.

  3. This could be really cool. The lengths some fans go to “meet” their idols is truly impressive and scary. Wonder if we’ll get a look into the psychology of it

  4. Is it a coincidence or did i never put it together that people were calling themselves Stans because of Eminem

  5. You know how long it took me to find out Stan was referring to the Eminem song. It was like 2 weeks ago. I always thought it was from Sebastian Stan’s crazy fans. I still hate hearing it used as a verb.

  6. “Eminem will be interviewed on camera for two hours for a few minutes of footage and receive a share of any profits” of ‘Stans’

  7. All respect to Em but he just wrote a song about a crazy fan, it was Nas that first used “stan” as a derogatory term on his diss song against Jay Z “Ether”

  8. I wonder if this will normalize hero worship or show how weird/creepy it is to idolize people.

  9. He should focus on the fanbase that Shad Khan’s nepobaby has created who think a trust fund baby is Scorcese and Mother Teresa all in one. There’s no family in business, loyalty is a one way street. An actual boss puts their foot down and lets everyone know whose in charge. Instead the kid is an ATM machine who allows stars to milk him for all the cash.

    The only Khan I stan is Nick. A cutthroat Mercenary businessman who plays chess while the nepobaby plays TEW. Everyone interview is appointment viewing and a learning experience.

    As a genius once said, “it doesn’t take a genius to spend someone else’s money and anyone can run a business at a loss.”

  10. Stans is such a stupid word. Just say super fans. It has always been super fans.

  11. I wonder if Stan’s body ever washed up? Em’s career sure has.

  12. I can’t wait for all of the Stans to see this documentary and start comparing their level of Stan. They may have thought they were alone. Now they will have a community – they can share ideas and collections…

    I believe this may lead to a new Super Stan. Marshall should think about the dangers in what he is creating.

  13. I wish he’d made this before the term became incredibly watered down. Now people use it just to mean fan. “I’m a huge Taylor Swift stan! I have two of her albums and went to one of her concerts ten years ago!”

  14. Looking at both literacy and numeracy, the research found that ‘there is a direct association between celebrity worship and poorer performance on cognitive tests,’ meaning that, generally speaking, those who scored higher on the celeb questionnaire scored lower in the intelligence tests.

  15. This reminded me that ‘stan’ wasn’t always in the lexicon. Crazy how universally that got picked up.

  16. Whats up with his weird beard. He should shave it because he dyes it

  17. It will be an interesting documentary for sure. Side note, they autobrushed his skin there waaaaay too much. I haven’t seen Marshall without bags under his eyes since at least 2003 LOL
