At Sunday’s Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show Eminem was shown taking a knee while on stage at the end of his “Lose Yourself” performance.

Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick was chased out of the league after he took a knee to protest against police brutality and racial discrimination.

Sunday’s performance was the first time hip-hop artists were the leading performers for the halftime show. Rappers Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Kendrick Lamar and R&B singer Mary J. Blige also performed.

Fans were happy that Eminem would break the rules, but according to ESPN, they knew he would be taking a knee that night.
