1* ContentLeak: Bootlegs were leaked before the album was scheduled to be released. The album was released a week earlier than intended as a result.
2* CreatorBacklash: Em admitted to cringing at "Cleanin' Out My Closet" in recent years, manly due to his more unfair criticisms of his mother's illness and declaring that he'd never let Hailey see her, especially after the two of them finally made peace. "Headlights" from ''The Marshall Mathers LP 2'' is a more sincere apology to his mother.
3* CutSong: "Stimulate". This song has since been released, but [[RegionalBonus only if you live in Europe]].
4* WhatCouldHaveBeen: According to rapper Kuniva of D12, the group Eminem was part of, "Cleanin' Out My Closet" [[https://hiphopdx.com/news/id.36084/title.eminems-cleanin-out-my-closet-originally-a-d12-song-according-to-kuniva# was originally planned to be a D12 track]] on their debut studio album ''Devil’s Night''.
5* WorkingTitle: The album was originally planned to be called ''The Eminem LP'' to close off the trilogy with ''Music/TheSlimShadyLP'' and ''Music/TheMarshallMathersLP'', but Em felt that the theme had gotten old. The final title is actually a shout out to the movie ''Film/TheTrumanShow'', the premise of which resonated with him at that point in his career.
