Machine Gun Kelly recalls bizarre fan encounter during European tour

Machine Gun Kelly, known offstage as Colson Baker, has shared a jaw-dropping story about a die-hard fan who went to extreme lengths to get his attention.

During an appearance at The Drop interview series at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles on October 1, the 35-year-old American rapper shared a wild story from one of his European concerts.

“This fan was like, ‘I didn’t get enough time with you in the show,’ and then he laid in front of the bus,” he said. 

“We were like, ‘Bro, you’ve got to move.’ He inched closer to the wheel and said, ‘I’m not moving, bro.’”

The Dirt actor went on to reveal that one of his crew members had to step in, physically picking up the fan and placing him into a nearby flower pot. 

“His head’s in the pot, his legs are sticking out,” MGK laughed. 

“Then he gets out and goes right back in front of the bus again! He just wanted more time, which was sweet.”

Elsewhere, the Emo Girl hitmaker recently opened up about his ex, actress Megan Fox, calling her “the greatest partner” to have a child with. 

The former couple welcomed their daughter, Saga, in March 2025. 

He said their love story was “epic, full of love, pain, and magic,” adding that baby keeps changing who she looks like between her famous parents.
