Jack White and Eminem Unite for Halftime Show at Detroit Lions Thanksgiving Game: Watch

Two Detroiters tried (but failed) to will their hometown Lions to victory during the NFL team’s annual Thanksgiving Day game. Jack White opened his halftime show performance with “That’s How I’m Feeling,” from last year’s No Name, before bringing out Eminem for a mashup of the White Stripes’ “Hello Operator” and the rapper’s Eminem Show cut “’Till I Collapse.” Inevitably, the performance concluded with Elephant’s “Seven Nation Army.” Watch a replay below and on YouTube. The show has also been uploaded, as an EP, to streaming services; scroll down to listen.

It should maybe not be a surprise that Eminem showed up for White’s performance, as the rapper and his manager and Shady Records co-founder Paul Rosenberg are the executive producers of the halftime show, along with Jesse Collins Entertainment. Eminem and Rosenberg will help with the Lions’ Thanksgiving halftime production through 2027.

The Detroit Lions play annually on Thanksgiving and, despite their success in recent seasons, they lose more often than they win, and that was the case yesterday, as the team fell to the rival Green Bay Packers. Last year, however, the Lions defeated the Chicago Bears in a game that featured a halftime performance from Shaboozey.
