Machine Gun Kelly shocks fans with spot-on impression of a major star, can you guess who?
Machine Gun Kelly has shocked fans with his spot-on Jim Carrey impression. The 35-year-old music artist was a guest on The Tonight Show on Monday night, where he revealed his shocking ability to emulate the 63-year-old actor. MGK, whose real name is Colson Baker, was prompted to do his best Carrey impression after host Jimmy Fallon pulled up a tweet he posted on August 2 that read: 'Growing up, Jim Carrey was dad. There's no other explanation for my rubbery face.' He then offered to show the audience exactly what he meant as he said, 'I can do two Jim Carreys if you want.' First, the Cliché hitmaker remarkably mimicked Carrey in his popular film How the Grinch Stole Christmas. The rapper-turned-rocker also shocked viewers as he pulled his best Ace Ventura: Pet Detective expression. View this post on Instagram A post shared by The Tonight Show (@fallontonight) Not only did he manipulate his face to reflect the famous actor's, but he also recited a lengthy line from the movie script without stuttering or missing a beat. It comes after MGK was spotted out in the Big Apple with his 16-year-old daughter Casie. The musician, who is promoting his new album Lost Americana, was stylishly dressed in olive green cargo pants, a clinging baby blue sweater, and white sneakers. In addition to Casie, he became a dad for the second time earlier this year when he welcomed a baby girl named Saga Blade Fox-Baker with ex-girlfriend Megan Fox. While appearing on the Today show's video series 8 Before 8 in July, he revealed that he picked his younger daughter's name. 'Well, I lost the first one and won the second one,' he answered when asked, 'As a father of two girls, what was the name choosing process like?' He elaborated, 'When you are 18-years-old and you go to her mother and you go, "What if we named our kid Kid?" I get why she's like, "Hey man, shut up."' He confessed with a laugh, 'That was one of the names. I was like, "If her name was Kid, that would be sick."' The Cliché hitmaker remarkably mimicked Carrey in his popular film How the Grinch Stole Christmas And while on Today in June he explained the meaning behind his newborn's name. 'She is an epic story. That's what saga means,' he said of the moniker. Referencing his ex Megan's prior miscarriage, He added, 'Her journey, the five years of her culmination of coming, disappearing, coming back again, disappearing, coming back again.' He also connected the name to his Norwegian background, stating, 'That's the Nordic goddess of storytelling. So, she has a storytelling future ahead of her.' Fans previously mistakenly thought the exes had named their daughter 'Celestial Seed' due to the caption MGK used when announcing her birth. Sharing an Instagram video hold his baby girl's tiny hand in March, he captioned, 'She's finally here!! our little celestial seed. 3/27/25.'
