Machine Gun Kelly, a rapper-turned-pop punk, tweeted before Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards, “I’ve never felt this nervous in my life.” He may have been concerned about his performance of “Papercuts” with Travis Barker, not winning Best Alternative Video (he did for “My Ex’s Best Friend”), or his on-the-red-carpet battle with Conor McGregor. He shouldn’t have felt nervous in any of these situations, or in any situation for that matter. As soon as Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox appeared, everyone stopped paying attention to him.
The Jennifer’s Body actress walked the carpet with MGK in “an embroidered sheer illusion dress by Mugler, from the Spring Summer 2021 collection, designed by Casey Cadwallader. The striking number revealed silver undergarments and showed off Fox’s toned physique,” as Entertainment Tonight described it.
“He was like, ‘You’re gonna be naked tonight,’” Fox joked, pointing to her rocker boyfriend. “I was like, ‘Whatever you say, daddy!’” Fox also said she’s “so proud” of Kelly for all he’s accomplished, adding, “He’s the most talented boy in the world.”
Here’s that interview:
When it comes to who gets to wear the flashier outfit to events they go together, Kelly says it’s a 50/50 split. “She took the lead on this one, and I got the pleasure of having her on my arm the entire night. She’s stunning.” He later referred to Fox as a “mermaid.” I’m hoping those wacky youngsters get it out alive.
