Danica Patrick recently reacted to a hysterical ‘Eminem disses Christmas’ parody by famous comedian Brent Pella. The video featured a dog playing the role of a reindeer and a spectacled Santa running away from ‘Eminem’.
Pella, who released his debut comedy special, ‘Conscious Bro,’ earlier this year, originally released the Eminem Christmas parody on his YouTube channel in 2018. When he reposted it as a reel on Instagram on Thursday, December 19, IndyCar legend Danica Patrick reshared it on her story and expressed her appreciation, writing:
“Wow!!!! @brentpella this is epic!🙌”

Pella’s near-2-minute parody music video used the beat of Eminem’s viral song ‘Killshot’, which the American rapper released in 2018 to diss MGK when their feud was heightened. The caption to Pella’s Instagram post read:
“Wow @eminem out here cooking Santa now??😤🎅🏻”
Patrick’s reshare comes as a surprise because Eminem has dissed her in his tracks on more than one occasion in the past.

From Christina Aguilera to Mariah Carey, Marshall Bruce Mathers III aka Eminem has dissed many celebrities during his rapping career. He also went after Danica Patrick twice – once in 2013 and another in 2018.
The first instance of Eminem mentioning Patrick was in “So Far…” – a song from his eighth studio album, the Marshall Mathers LP 2. The 3-time Grammy winner called her a “vacuum” in one verse of the song that went:
“I get to meet famous people, look at her dag | Her nylons are ran, her skirt’s snagged | And I heard she drag-races, swag | Tuck in my Hanes shirt tag | You’re Danica Patrick (Yeah?) word, skag | We’d be the perfect match | ‘Cause you’re a vacuum, I’m a dirtbag”
This unusual feud didn’t end there as the Missouri native took another shot at IndyCar’s only female race-winner in ‘Venom’, the title track of Sony’s Tom Hardy-starring movie of the same name. He dissed Patrick for her crashes in the American open-wheel racing series.
“So this ain’t gonna feel like a love tap | Eat painkiller pills, (expletive) a blood track | Like, what’s her name’s at the wheel? Danica Patrick | Throw the car into reverse at the Indy, end up crashin’ | Into ya, the back of it—just mangled steel |My Mustang and your Jeep Wrangler grill”
This song was released in October 2018, five months after Patrick crashed out in her final career race at the Indy 500. Since retirement, she has hosted her podcast titled ‘Pretty Intense’, interviewing people from all walks of life, and also served as an F1 analyst for Sky Sports. She last covered the 2024 F1 season finale at the Abu Dhabi GP.
