Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie" Is More Like "Stan 2.0"
Watch what happens when footage from Eminem's music video for "Stan" is mixed in with his new video for "I Love the Way You Lie." Not only are the two songs identical, stylistically, their videos are basically the damn thing.
Both songs/videos revolve around an abusive relationship, both feature celebrity actors—Devin Sawa in "Stan" and Megan Fox in "Way You Lie"—and both have female vocalists sing the choruses—Dido for "Stan" and Rihanna for "Way You Lie." The only alteration I did for the video was remove Eminem and Rihanna from "Way You Lie," and replace it with footage from "Stan," in sequential order. It feels like the most dramatic movie trailer ever.
