Eminem's daughter says it's 'surreal' looking back at her childhood.

Hailie Jade recently set up her own podcast, Just a Little Shady, where she talks about her life and incredibly famous father, Marshall Mathers.

In the first episode of the series, the 26-year-old spoke to her best friend Brittany Ednie and Hailie admitted that she didn't realise how different her life was because of the rapper's fame.

Recalling a visit to Hailie's house, Brittany said: "I feel like I vividly remember being in your kitchen, and you were like, 'Do you wanna come on the tour bus?' And I was like, 'What's a tour bus?' And somebody was with us and they were like, 'Hailie Jade, not everyone knows what a tour bus is!'

"And you were like, 'What?' Honestly, to you that was so normal."

Adding: "I remember going on that [Eminem’s tour bus] and all our memories of being young were so cool and unique to look back at now, but at the time, it felt so normal and not anything strange or different. I mean, 'cause we didn’t know any better.

"Obviously we were in a normal public school, we never thought anything was different."

Hailie then jumped in: "I don’t know, we had so many normal experiences that when something like that happened, I thought like, 'Oh, everybody else does this too', not realising that like, no, that’s freaking weird.

"It’s so fun to look back, when we have these conversations here, wherever, like thinking back as an adult, like, 'Wow, that’s actually so surreal'.

"Those memories of me thinking those were normal things, now I look back and I’m like, ‘Holy crap, that was cool'."

Elsewhere in the episode, the pair also recalled a trip to Florida they went on while Eminem recorded some new music.

Hailie said: "I always think about that time we went to Florida, my dad was working on something, and he was working the whole time.

You can watch the whole episode here:

"But he set up for us to do the limo and take it to Disney and we did the princess tea party, and he had the dresses waiting for us.

"And even then, like at the time, we were so happy and so excited, but we didn’t like get to appreciate that moment as much as now, when we talk about it and think back on it. We’re like, 'Oh my god, that was just awesome'."

Hailie announced the new podcast earlier this month.

In a post to her Instagram account, the singer directed her 2.8 million followers to a page dedicated to the new podcast, the bio of which read: "Let’s talk about my life, pop culture and get a little shady."
