| Song |
"Ass Like That", also referred to as "A** Like That," "Like That" or "Butt Like That" in their respective censored forms, is a 2005 single by the rapper Eminem from his album, Encore.
Background
Eminem puts on an accent for this song, fantasizing about women with an "ass like that", making his "pee pee/Slinky" go "A doing doing doing". The women include Jessica Simpson, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Britney Spears (although he didn't compliment her), Hilary Duff, JoJo, Janet Jackson (while referring the Super Bowl XXXVIII incident), and Gwen Stefani. The song also contains lyrics which mock R. Kelly, Pee-Wee Herman, Michael Jackson, and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Dr. Dre makes a brief and uncredited appearance at the end of the song, asking Eminem, "'Fuck is wrong with you?". Eminem responds with "AH!"
Music video
The music video was released on May 20, 2005. The video begins with the instrumental to Evil Deeds (the second song from Encore) playing in the background as famous people exit a limo, walking down a red carpet with fans off to the side. Eminem is the last to come out and as the news reporters ask him questions, he gets mocked by Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, which he punches and tackles to the ground, along with some security guards. He is able to get it on his hand and starts singing the chorus with it. The video then switches between the "real world" and the "puppet world". There are puppet versions of many of the celebrities Eminem makes fun of (listed above), as well as Nick Lachey. The puppets from Crank Yankers also make an appearance, there was: Elmer Higgins, Terrence Catheter, Birchum, Special Ed, Bobby Fletcher, Niles Standish, Spoonie Luv, Hadassah Guberman. Puppet versions of Dr. Dre and 50 Cent are also featured. A censored version of the song was featured in the movie Drillbit Taylor and briefly in HBO's You're Welcome America. He sang an altered version of the song in the New York Tour DVD.
