Machine Gun Kelly sparks concern revealing grim diet plan and admits he only eats a 'couple of times a week'
The 35-year-old pop punk rapper - who hit a rare red carpet with his teenage daughter weeks ago - broke down his nutrition plan as he revealed that he only eats 'a couple of times a week.'
In a clip shared by Instagram account HipHop-N-More he admitted: 'I don't really eat. I just do water a bunch.'
MGK (born Colson Baker) - who ate a burger during the hangout with streamers - nodded when he was asked if he mainly fasts.
He explained: 'Like, I ate that burger 'cause we're streaming, and it's my man's s***, you know?'
One of the streamers asked that if they weren't live online then what would MGK have for dinner.
The Home hitmaker simply replied: 'Probably water.'
The group of streamers were left mystified by the answer as they queried: 'But how? You don't ever feel weak or lightheaded?'
Then MGK revealed his diet plan which many have since criticized as he said: 'Yeah, sometimes. I'll eat, like, a couple times a week.'
He then admitted that the meals that he actually does eat consist of 'bone broth with kimchi and sauerkraut.'
Megan Fox's baby daddy explained: ''Cause it has probiotics, you know? So, like, when you do those water fasts, the only thing that's crazy is it kills all the good bacteria in you, too, so you gotta put the pro[biotics.'
Kimchi is a traditional Korean side dish (ie. banchan) consisting of salted and fermented vegetables, most often napa cabbage or Korean radish.
Sauerkraut is finely cut raw cabbage that has been fermented by various lactic acid bacteria.
Both items are fermented which is a metabolic process in which microorganisms like bacteria and yeast convert carbohydrates into other products like acids, gases, or alcohols.
As the rapper said, kimchi and sauerkraut each contain probiotics, which are live microorganisms like bacteria or yeast that provide health benefits; however, they are low in calories and macronutrients, which are essential to organ function.
Meanwhile, bone broth is a nutrient-rich liquid made by simmering animal bones and connective tissues, often including vegetables, herbs, and spices, for an extended period, typically 12-48 hours.
MGK was asked if he drinks green juice which is made from a blend of green vegetables or fruit which is a go-to for many celebs.
He replied: 'I'll drink celery juice sometimes, yeah. Coconut water.'
The father of two also noted that coffee and cigarettes are staples in his diet.
Fans expressed their concern in the comments section of the clip as some accused him of having an eating disorder.
One wrote: 'Explains an eating disorder and smokes cigs as the other guys are saying he's healthy.'
'Bro is describing anorexia,' another said while a different commenter posted: 'He has the diet of a 17 year old girl who has anxiety issues.'

MGK welcomed his second child - a daughter named Saga Blade - with ex Megan Fox in March.
He is also dad to a 15-year-old daughter named Casie from a previous relationship.
The rapper celebrated one year of sobriety in August of last year.

One Piece: How a cartoon skull became a symbol of defiance in Indonesiaa
In the popular Japanese anime One Piece, black flags bearing a skull with a straw hat are carried by a rowdy crew of pirates who have made it their mission to challenge a draconian regime and fight for in July, these emblems started popping up across Indonesia – along doorways, on the backs of cars, and painted on many, it was a response to Indonesian leader Prabowo Subianto's call for Indonesians to fly their national red and white flag ahead of the country's Independence Day on 17 August. Instead, many chose to raise these pirate flags - known as a Jolly Roger - as a symbol of their discontent, with many criticising what they say is an increasingly centralised government led by Prabowo. But the movement has not been well received by all. Earlier last week, the country's Deputy House Speaker criticised the flag displays, calling it an "attempt to divide the nation". Another lawmaker even suggested it could be treason. One Piece, was first published in 1997 as a manga by Eiichiro Oda, is one of the most popular franchises in the world. The manga has sold more than 520 million copies while the TV series has run for more than 1,100 series has a large and dedicated fan base in Indonesia, where Japanese anime is well the same way the pirates in the series, led by their leader Monkey D Luffy, raise the Jolly Rogers as a symbol of freedom against their government, some Indonesian residents say raising the flag is a "symbol that we love this country, but don't completely agree with its policies".The anime reflects the injustice and inequality that Indonesians experience, said Ali Maulana, a resident of Jayapura city in the Papua province. "Even though this country is officially independent, many of us have not truly experienced that freedom in our daily lives," he told BBC him and many others, the decision to fly the flag was a response to a speech given by President Prabowo in late July. "Raise the red and white flag wherever you are. Red represents the blood shed for our independence, white represents the purity of our souls," Prabowo had Christanto, who owns the Wik Wiki apparel store in Central Java, said he has received "thousands of orders" for the flags following the president's speech. "Since the end of July, I received hundreds of orders a day from all over Indonesia," Dendi told news outlet Jakarta top officials however, have been less than impressed. Deputy House Speaker Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, widely regarded as Prabowo's right-hand man, described the movement as "a coordinated attempt to divide the nation". "We must collectively resist such actions," he had said earlier last week. Another lawmaker from the centre-right Golkar Party, Firman Soebagyo, suggested that displaying these flags could even amount to treason. But on Tuesday, the country's state secretary minister Prasetyo Hadi said the president himself had "no objection" to the flags as a form of "creative expression"."However, it should not be used to challenge or diminish the significance of the red and white flag. The two should not be placed side by side in a way that invites comparison or conflict," his office said in a Indonesia, there are no laws that restrict the display of fictional flags, but the law stipulates that if they are flown alongside the red-and-white national flags, the country's flag must always be hoisted higher. Police in the capital Jakarta have said they are "monitoring the use of non-national flags and symbols that don't align with the spirit of nationalism, including pirate or fictional-themed flags". 'A cartoon flag as a threat to national security' Indonesia's hard-won democracy, the third largest in the world, has faced growing challenges in recent years. Its popular former leader Joko Widodo rose to power as a promising democrat, but his one-of-us image lost some of its sheen towards the end of his second term, when he revived the death penalty for drug traffickers and appointed Prabowo, a controversial ex-general, as his defence frustration has intensified since Prabowo took over as president last October. In February, thousands took to the streets to protest budget cuts and legislative changes that would allow the military to take a bigger role in government. "The red-and-white flags are too sacred for us to raise now," said one user on Instagram, in a post that has been widely shared. And while some lawmakers have criticised the display of the Jolly Rogers, others say they accept it as a form of public are a way for people to "convey their expectations", said Deputy Home Affairs Minister Bima Arya Sugiarto. "Such a form of expression is a natural phenomenon in a democracy.""This kind of symbolic action is better than street protests that could turn violent," said Deddy Yevri Sitorus from the opposition Democratic Party of Struggle. Because of One Piece's popularity among Indonesians of all ages, the flags have offered a way to "raise awareness around political issues in a different and unique way", said Dominique Nicky Fahrizal, a researcher at the Center for Strategic and International for some Indonesians, the government's mixed response to the Jolly Roger underscores the symbol's power."By treating a cartoon flag as a threat to national security, they have inadvertently validated the entire premise of the protest," Farhan Rizqullah wrote on the Medium publishing platform."They have shown that the dream of Monkey D Luffy, the simple, unwavering desire to be free, is the one thing they truly fear."Additional reporting by Arie Firdaus in Jakarta and Muhammad Ikbal Asra in Jayapura

Julianne Hough sells Hollywood Hills home after slashing price by nearly $2MILLION
Julianne Hough has finally sold her Hollywood Hills home but not until she slashed the price by a considerable amount. The 36-year-old Dancing With The Stars personality officially sold her property in the Los Angeles celebrity enclave for $6.35million. However, it wasn't exactly the return she had expected initially as she originally listed the home for $7.95million back in April. The three bedroom, four bathroom home features 3,000-square-feet of living space. No doubt the new owner will have plenty of room on the property as it sits on nearly half an acre of land. The home itself was built during Hollywood's heyday in the late 1930s as it was recently renovated by celeb-favorite designer Jake Arnold. The 36-year-old Dancing With The Stars personality officially sold her property in the Los Angeles celebrity enclave for $6.35million The interior of the home is bright as the living room has floor-to-ceiling windows to feel a connection to the outdoors. As if that wasn't enough melding between the inside and outside the dining area and kitchen which leads to a covered terrace which is perfect for hosting. It also features a large swimming pool for those hot California summer months. Perhaps the most stunning feature on the property are the lush gardens as the landscaping was done by Trilling Landscape. And no doubt the owners will be enjoying the 'sanctuary' that is the primary suite as it includes a luxurious bathroom and a private patio. Brandon Piller and Joey Ben-Zvi of The Agency held the listing. Back in 2016, Julianne talked about working with designer Jake as she revealed the property represents a safe space for herself. She said at the time: 'My life is instant. I'm always on the go, and I travel a lot. The interior of the home is bright as the living room has floor-to-ceiling windows to feel a connection to the outdoors 'So to balance it all, I've created a safe, special place where I feel like my true self.' Julianne had previously lived in the home with her now ex-husband and former NHL player Brooks Laich. The exes were first romantically linked in 2013, married in Idaho in summer 2017, and were divorced by 2022. After the divorce Julianne moved on with a new home in New York City. Julianne currently co- hosts Dancing With The Stars alongside Alfonso Ribeiro. The 34th season of the popular reality competition series is set to begin on September 16 as the confirmed celebrity contestants include Jenn Affleck, Alix Earle, Robert Irwin, and Whitney Leavitt so far.
