Eminem debuted the video for “We Made You,” the first single off his forthcoming album “Relapse” on MTV yesterday, according to a Reuters report.
The video is generating some heat because it takes on our celebrity-obsessed culture, and spoofs such media stars as Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan and Ellen DeGeneres, not to mention offering a shot at ex VP candidate Sarah Palin.
“When you walked through the door, it was clear to me/ You’re the one they adore, who they came to see/ You’re a rock star, everybody wants you,” goes the track’s chorus over the Dr. Dre-produced beat.
Among other scenes, the video shows John Mayer crooning to a smitten Jennifer Aniston; Tony Romo doing a dirty dance with Simpson, Spock from “Star Trek” and Kevin Federline next to a dancing Britney Spears.
“Relapse” hits the shelves on May 19.

Seriously? In 2009 the edgiest thing Eminem can come up with is a song dissing Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan? Yawn.
