Eminem and Al Michaels were 2 of the most recognizable celebrities at the Super Bowl on Sunday, and they seemed to appreciate one another during a conversation.
“The Rams are in their home stadium and you’re doing the game,” Eminem said.
Replied Michaels, “You’re the best in show, best in show.”
The Detroit rapper, who performed as part of a halftime show celebration of rap and hip-hop, called Michaels the GOAT.
“I’m telling you, I was telling my wife,” he said, “Since I was a little kid, all the way to now, I watch shitty games when you’re doing them just because, right?”
Eminem then referred to one of the bigger sports media stories in the coming months, which is Michael’s future. Eminem referred to a retirement, but Michaels said, “I’ll be somewhere.” Michaels is reported to be a hot commodity among the NFL’s broadcast partners, from Amazon to ESPN and NBC.
“No, you’re a long way from retiring,” Eminem said.

Eminem performed with Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, 50 Cent and Kendrick Lamar as they put out a medley of their hits.
As his rendition of “Lose Yourself” ended, Eminem took a knee and held his head in his hand in apparent tribute to former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who took a knee during the national anthem to protest police brutality during the 2016 season.
