Eminem Is the Candyman

Don’t be fooled by Eminem’s caustic disposition, he’s really a sugary 8-pound candyman on the inside. Artist Enrique Ramos has crafted a portrait of the Detroit MC from more than 1,000 individual M&M’s that measures 40 inches by 30 inches.

Ripley’s Believe It or Not! liked the 8-pound candy portrait so much that they purchased it for an undisclosed amount. It will now grace the halls of Ripley’s odditorium.

Says Tim O’Brien, VP of communications for Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Our customers have a pretty good eye for art. They won’t be disappointed by Eminem in M&M’s. “This thing looks good enough to eat.” I can’t speak for all Eminem fans, but I won’t be having an 8-pound Eminem for dinner anytime soon. No, thank you.

The M&M portrait joins an oddity art collection that includes Princess Diana made from lint and Michael Jackson done in gumballs.

Ripley’s Believe It or Not! was so amused by the candy art that they decided to buy the Eminem face and adorned it in its museum. They better have some air conditioning up in there! (Source) [...]
