In a blast from the past, Eminem has stunned fans once again — this time, not with bars but with a razor. New behind-the-scenes footage from the “Houdini” music video shoot has surfaced, revealing that the rap legend went clean-shaven for the occasion. And fans can’t stop talking about it.

For years, we’ve known Eminem to rock his signature stubble or a full beard, but seeing him bare-faced is like stepping into a time machine. Fans across social media are in awe, commenting on how youthful he looks, bringing back strong Slim Shady vibes from the early 2000s.

It looks like Metaphysic_ai, responsible for processing the video and making modern-day Eminem look like his alter ego from 25 years ago, didn’t have that much job to do.

As the footage continues to make the rounds, it’s clear that beard or no beard, Eminem still knows how to keep his fans on their toes. Who knew a quick shave could take us all on a nostalgia trip? Whether he’s clean-shaven or scruffy, Slim Shady has never left.
