- Content Leak: Bootlegs were leaked before the album was scheduled to be released. The album was released a week earlier than intended as a result.
- Creator Backlash: 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.
- Cut Song: "Stimulate". This song has since been released, but only if you live in Europe.
- What Could Have Been: According to rapper Kuniva of D12, the group Eminem was part of, "Cleanin' Out My Closet" was originally planned to be a D12 track
on their debut studio album Devil’s Night. - Working Title: The album was originally planned to be called The Eminem LP to close off the trilogy with The Slim Shady LP and The Marshall Mathers LP, but Em felt that the theme had gotten old. The final title is actually a shout out to the movie The Truman Show, the premise of which resonated with him at that point in his career.
