Machine Gun Kelly leaves American Music Awards early because baby daughter has a 'fever'
Machine Gun Kelly left the American Music Awards early because his daughter has a fever.
The 35-year-old singer and his former partner Megan Fox, 39, welcomed their baby girl into the world two months ago, and the 'Emo Girl' star had to cut his time at the AMA ceremony short because the tot was sick at home.
He told E! News on Monday night (26.05.25): "Baby's great.
"She has a little bit of a fever, so I'm gonna just walk the carpet and go back, you know what I mean, and handle my business.
"Give her my pheromones, and let her heal up."
MGK - who also has daughter Casie, 15, with his ex Emma Cannon - insisted fatherhood is something he was meant to do.
He added: "I was born to be a dad. Yeah, it's my purpose."
In a different red carpet interview, the 'Cliche' hitamker admitted life was "awesome" as a dad.
He told Access Online: "I'm just so elated. It's just awesome."
And he revealed the one thing he loves about being a new dad again, 15 years after Casie was born.
He said: "They smell so good. I was just meant to be a dad.'
Meanwhile, 'Jennifer's Body' actress Megan recently branded their daughter a "happy surprise".
Sharing a clip from Hulu's new comedy 'Overcompensating', in which she makes a brief cameo, Megan wrote on her Instagram Story: "38 years old six weeks pregnant (unplanned but a happy surprise). Please stop listening to the patriarchy. Women are eternal light beings.'
Megan - who also has sons Noah, 12, Bodhi, 11, and Journey, eight, with her ex-husband Brian Austin Green - split from MGK in November shortly after it was revealed she was pregnant.
And though the pair have grown closer since their daughter was born, it is unlikely they will reconcile their relationship.
A source told Us Weekly magazine: "Megan thinks MGK has stepped up and is being a good dad but doesn't think they have a future together romantically.
"Megan is in heaven with her baby girl and is really focused on being a mom right now.'

Sydney Sweeney reacts to her bathwater soap going viral
Sydney Sweeney is having "fun" watching her bathwater soap go viral. The 27-year-old actress - who is known for her roles in Euphoria and The White Lotus - has collaborated with soap brand Dr. Squatch to create a limited-edition bar called Bathwater Bliss and is just enjoying seeing the whole thing going viral. She told E! News: "I think it's more fun to see everyone else talk about it. "I pitched it!" She said in a press release: 'When your fans start asking for your bathwater, you can either ignore it, or turn it into a bar of Dr. Squatch soap,' Sweeney said in a press release. Sydney first partnered with Dr. Squatch for a commercial promoting the brand's Natural Body Wash, where she appeared in a bubble bath. Now, the company has repurposed the suds from that ad into a new product. Sydney's soap bar features exfoliating sand and pine bark extract, combined with a splash of the actress' bathwater. According to the brand's statement, the scent 'channels two of the best places on Earth: the great outdoors and Sydney Sweeney's bathtub'. At the time, the Anyone But You star admitted that the whole project was a "weird" one but insisted that was all in the "best way possible" and that she wanted fans to recognise the "realities" of traditional personal care products as opposed to natural options. 'It's weird in the best way, and I love that we created something that's not just unforgettable, it actually smells incredible and delivers like every other Dr. Squatch product I love. 'Hopefully, this helps guys wake up to the realities of conventional personal care products and pushes them towards natural.' The Bathwater Bliss soap will be available in a very limited run – only 5,000 bars will be produced, going on sale at noon EST on Friday, 6 June, while supplies last.

Robert De Niro shares his ultimate parenting tip
Robert De Niro will always "support" his children, even if he disagrees with their choices. The 81-year-old actor - who has Drena, 57, Raphael, 48, 29-year-old twins Julian and Airyn, Elliot, 27, and Helen Grace, 13, from previous relationships and two-year-old Gia with partner Tiffany Chen - believes the most important thing a parent can do for their kids is to always back their decisions. He told 'Entertainment Tonight': 'The main thing is to support your kids. As long as they're not hurting themselves, doing anything destructive or anything like that, you have to support them - period. 'Even if you don't go with it—you have to support them. And they have to know that you support them. Always.' The 'Goodfellas' star hailed his youngest child as "just pure joy". He added: 'She's two now. It's always wonderful." The 'Meet the Fockers' actor previously told of how he "somehow makes it work" when it comes to juggling his career with raising a toddler. He told E! News: "Yeah, she's great! She came on the 'Zero Day' set a few times, I shot that last year. You make it work, somehow. Sometimes I have her on the set with my girlfriend. I'm lucky, I have a camper." However, Robert admitted he doesn't change the youngster's diapers. Asked if he does, he recently told The Sunday Times magazine: "No, no, but I used to!" But the veteran actor enjoys spending early mornings with his little girl. He said: "I'm an early riser. I spend my mornings watching [YouTuber for toddlers] Ms. Rachel with her, and I give her her bottle." Robert "tries his best" to be a good dad and to meet his children' s different needs. He said: "Oh God, they would all have a different answer. Family is so complex. "I try my best, that's all. I hope they'll be happy." The 'Killers of the Flower Moon' star previously revealed that he loves it when his brood is all together and enjoys going on family vacations with them. He told People: 'The fact that they'd all be together is everything to me." Asked what his favourite thing to do with his children is, he replied: 'Just being together, taking trips to warm places."
