Machine Gun Kelly buys daughter a moderately priced first car... but issues her a stern warning
The 35-year-old music artist — who recently revealed what parenting comment left ex-girlfriend Megan Fox 'fuming' — purchased Casie her first car for her 16th birthday in July.
As he surprised her with the new wheels, he had one rule: 'Don't drive like your dad.'
In a viral video shared by a fan page on X, the teenager gushed over a black Acura TLX that her rock star dad gifted her, complete with a red bow.
And the Cliché hitmaker, who now goes by mgk, said about the moderately priced car: 'I don't know why it's her dream car, but it's her dream car.'

According to Business Insider, the sleek sedan ranges from $45,400-$62,000 — a small price for the artist, whose net worth is an estimated $25 million.
Casie will have to pass an exam to get her driver's license before she can fully enjoy her new gift.
'It runs in the family, dude. We can't get a license to save our lives,' the Cleveland-bred rapper said in the clip.
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.
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."'
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 that he was inspired by '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 holding his baby girl's tiny hand in March, he captioned, 'She's finally here!! our little celestial seed. 3/27/25.'

Cheryl Hines 'iced out' of Larry David's new HBO show by the Obamas
Cheryl Hines's hopes of reuniting on screen with her longtime TV husband Larry David are fading fast - and the Obamas may be to blame, Daily Mail can reveal. The comedian and screenwriter was recently revealed to be working on a new HBO comedy series to mark America's 250th anniversary next year, with the former president and first lady to serve as producers. The show, which will consist of six half-hour episodes, is expected to see many of the stars from Larry's hit sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm reunite on set. But insiders tell Daily Mail that Cheryl's marriage to Trump's Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is all but certain to rule her out. According to sources, Barack and Michelle Obama, whose production firm, Higher Ground, is producing the show, are 'vehemently opposed' to Cheryl having any part in the project due to her political alliances. The 59-year-old actress otherwise would have likely been a 'natural choice shoo-in' after famously playing Larry's character's wife on Curb Your Enthusiasm for all 12 seasons. But Cheryl is now facing what another source called 'the cancel culture wrath of her beloved Hollywood at the highest level of progressive political power'. 'The Obamas are adamant that anyone politically connected to Trump - who they despise - should not have a role in any of their lucrative media projects,' one well-connected source told Daily Mail. 'That clearly would include Cheryl. Worse for her in the Obamas' eyes - and Larry's, too - she dropped her affiliation with the Democrat Party and calls herself an Independent and has an amicable friendship with Donald Trump.' Ironically, back in 2008, then President-elect Obama considered RFK Jr. for a cabinet position as EPA administrator, enforcing environmental laws, according to Politico. But the idea was reportedly scrapped over fears Kennedy would have difficulty getting confirmed by Senate Republicans due to his past drug use and controversial statements. 'It's now gone full circle,' a source noted. As an executive producer as well as the star of the upcoming series, Larry could override his powerful partners and cast Cheryl, but insiders say such a move is unlikely. They claim Larry's longtime personal and professional relationship with Cheryl has 'chilled if not completely faded' since her husband dropped his Democratic affiliation and ran as an Independent against Joe Biden last year. Kennedy then became a MAGA ally and acolyte as the Trump administration's Secretary of Health and Human Services in February, and most recently, leader of its 'Make America Healthy Again' movement. Meanwhile Larry, 78, remains a prominent, staunchly liberal Democrat celebrity, who supported Joe Biden's presidential campaign and reportedly contributed $15,000 to the 2020 Biden Victory Fund. 'It would be a tough call for Larry to bring Cheryl on to the new show because of his negative feelings about Bobby's politics, Cheryl's avid support of MAGA and MAHA, and Larry's extreme loathing of Trump,' a source said. Even Larry's ex-wife, Laurie David, 67, a liberal democrat, environmentalist, feminist, and inspiration for Cheryl's role as Larry's TV spouse, attacked her earlier this year after she was seen supporting her husband at his Senate confirmation hearings. She called Cheryl's appearance in the Senate chamber her 'best and most watched performance yet as the dutiful, adoring wife setting women back decades'. Critical: Larry's ex-wife, Laurie, took aim at Cheryl earlier this year in a barbed post on Threads after she was seen supporting her husband at his Senate confirmation hearings Cheryl responded to Laurie's remarks in an interview this week with the Wall Street Journal, admitting she found the post 'odd' because she doesn't 'really have a relationship with her'. She added that she and Larry are still friends. Her publicist, however, declined to comment when Daily Mail asked about the state of Cheryl and Larry's relationship, and whether or not she'll have a role in his new show. The Obamas' and Larry's new TV project is a sketch comedy will also see Curb Your Enthusiasm showrunner Jeff Schaffer co-write and direct episodes. The show's name is yet to be announced but its promotional logline states 'President and Mrs Obama wanted to honor America's 250th anniversary and celebrate the unique history of our nation on this special occasion. …But then Larry David called'. 'I've sat across from some of the world's most difficult leaders and wrestled with some of our most intractable problems. Nothing prepared me for working with Larry David,' Obama joked in a statement. Schaffer added: 'The characters Larry is playing didn't change history. In fact, they were largely ignored by history. And that's a good thing.' The show will feature a mix of Curb Your Enthusiasm cast members and other guests, but casting details have not been released. With her gig in the new show in question, and Curb Your Enthusiasm no longer in production, Cheryl is apparently pursuing other work. She recently served as the executive producer and star in a low-budget horror short film in Italy with her 21-year-old daughter Catherine from her first marriage to Paul Young. Cheryl also scored a $600,000 advance from RFK Jr.'s longtime book publisher and political backer to pen a memoir due in November entitled Unscripted. Cheryl has been spending time between the Kennedy estate in Los Angeles and their new $4.3million townhouse in the ritzy Georgetown section of Washington, D.C. – the home she reportedly demanded her husband buy in April after he was caught up in a sexting scandal last year with political journalist Olivia Nuzzi, 32. The actress wanted to keep close tabs on him and his wandering eye, sources told Daily Mail at the time. Before RFK Jr. 'infuriated' Larry with his presidential bid against Biden last year and then taking a role in the Trump administration in February, the two men had a close friendship, sources say. It was during a 2004 charity ski event with Larry and his first wife that Kennedy was introduced to Cheryl, a friend of Laurie, according to the couple. At the time, Cheryl was separated from her first husband, Hollywood producer and manager Young, who had helped her with her acting career. Womanizing Kennedy, who suffered from what he called 'love demons' in a diary that listed dozens of women, was still married to his second wife, late architectural designer Mary Richardson, the mother of four of his six children. Like a scenario out of the offbeat Curb Your Enthusiasm show, he later claimed that he bizarrely asked Larry for permission to date his TV wife, and that Larry gave him the green light, but warned Cheryl it was not a good idea to be with him. He told Bobby that she was 'the most solid person I ever met'. Richardson told a different story, claiming she introduced Cheryl to her husband at a charity event. When she learned they were having an affair, she was heartbroken. She later told a confidante that she felt 'very betrayed' by what she termed the 'sisterhood – women sticking together, supporting one another'. Cheryl reportedly began publicly boasting about her relationship with RFK Jr., which humiliated his wife of 18 years. Online, Richardson saw that Cheryl had tweeted that she had become friends with Mary's close friend Glenn Close, had bonded with Bobby's sister Kerry Kennedy, and become pals with his youngest son Aidan. In the wake of Cheryl's tweets, an online commenter observed: 'Was Hines so self-absorbed that she did not think her giddy and public celebration would have no effect on the woman left behind?' Kennedy filed divorce in 2010, and two years later Mary Richardson, 52, died by suicide at her home in Bedford, New York. Four years later, on a drizzly Saturday in August 2014, at the storied Kennedy compound in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, Cheryl became the third Mrs. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. One of the guests of honor was Larry, who once told the Kennedy scion: 'Nothing you ever do will rattle her.'

Long Story Short: this Jewish family comedy from the creator of BoJack Horseman is painfully beautiful
Like schoolboys, my friend Charlie and I send each other coded messages. One of these is 'Am back on the horse', which means 'Rewatching BoJack Horseman', which means 'Having a mental health crisis'. The recipient knows to go to the other's house with Danish pastries and some grass to touch. That show changed my life. The Simpsons had redefined what a cartoon could be, Ren & Stimpy and South Park were transgressive thrill-rides. But Raphael Bob-Waksberg's tale of a washed-up actor chasing redemption wasn't just adult; it was profound. So I was worried, approaching the new animated series from that show's creators. It's not about celebrity. There are no talking dogs or porcupines, or underwater worlds. No Will Arnett. How could I watch without expectation? It feels unfair yet unavoidable to keep an artist's previous work in mind. Isn't that like comparing a current partner with an ex? While it lacks a famous horse, Long Story Short (Netflix, from Friday 22 August) is its own beast, and no less ambitious. It's a family saga told in multiple timelines. The Schwoopers are an argumentative, chaotic Jewish household. Each episode focuses on a character or relationship, swooshing back and forward in time, from the 1950s to the 2020s, as they navigate romance, coming of age, marital breakdown, parenting, old wounds, joy, death and purpose. Basically, it's Bluey meets Tolstoy. The Jewishness is not incidental. The show is Jewish inside and out, defiantly, delightedly so. Naomi Schwartz is presented as a classic Jewish matriarch, impossibly critical yet overbearingly proud of her children. Daughter Shira is more modern. ('We're a lesbian couple with biracial, Jewish sons. We're impressive,' as her partner Kendra puts it.) In the episode Yoshi's Bar Mitzvah, teenager Danny (voiced by Dave Franco) celebrates his friend's public speaking. 'Dude, your davening was on point!' he hypes. 'Mr Leibowitz was kvellin' like a felon!' It almost goes without saying: melancholy. Most dramas have a primary time and place, flashing back in a limited way. Long Story Short doesn't privilege any of its periods or people. There is only the equalising process of decades passing or rolling back. The time-hopping is extraordinarily effective, bringing characters back from the dead, fleshing out relationships, grounding us in moral complexity. We feel the painful beauty of our bounded lives. It almost even more goes without saying: funny. Long Story Short delights in language games, subversion, absurdity and surprise. Hapless Yoshi gets conned into becoming a salesman for explosive mattresses in a tube. (Yes, there's a soft launch.) Avi's daughter Hannah's school has been invaded by wolves, but no one seems concerned. Kendra and Shira have a dog, named the Undeniable Isadora Duncan. I guess there are animals in this one. Characters talk a mile a minute, particularly at the Schwoopers' dinner table, and it takes a while to key into the frenetic pace. But BoJack Horseman also took a minute to find its hooves. (In fact, the first season improved so drastically in its second half, website IndieWire changed its reviewing strategy to only award scores after watching entire seasons.) Here, I was locked in by the second episode. It's rare for me to actually LOL, watching comedies. But I did, repeatedly – such as when Shira is flummoxed by a reCAPTCHA asking her to pick out squares containing bisexuals. ('How am I supposed to …?') Kendra is unimpressed. 'Where are your glasses? It says bicycles.' But above all, it's beautiful. The show is interested in the moments when one's heart splits open. The final scene of an episode in which Kendra attends shul for mercenary reasons pierced me with its humanity. The poignancy is baked into its innovative structure, reminding me of the Sondheim musical Merrily We Roll Along, perhaps a little of Pachinko and the film Boyhood. It wears its formal brilliance lightly, and at 10 episodes of 30 minutes, Long Story Short doesn't outstay its welcome. It's rewarding company, even if you don't catch every Fiddler on the Roof reference. I'm glad it's already been renewed. As with loved ones I have lost, I want more time.

Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori goes without a bra at Denny's
Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori left little to the imagination at a family dining chain with the controversial rapper on Thursday. She turned heads in a low-cut, blue camisole and pair of micro shorts for the outing. Bianca, 30, and Kanye, 48, grabbed a bite to eat at Denny's before heading to a nearby movie theater for the horror movie Weapons. While Bianca was scantily-clad, Kanye was covered up as he wore a fully zipped-up hoodie paired with black sweatpants. The outing comes after the rapper and his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, were seen in a heated exchange in a documentary trailer about his day-to-day life over the past six years. As they stepped out just days after the teaser trailer's release, Bianca appeared to be in high spirits while Kanye seemed stoic. Two days earlier, an explosive documentary titled In Whose Name? was released on YouTube by a documentary filmmaker who followed West around for six years. The movie director and producer, Nico Ballesteros, started filming the rapper when he was married to Kim. In the newly released teaser trailer, Kim could be seen breaking down as she pleaded with Kanye after he stopped taking his medication. In shocking clips, he said he would rather 'be dead than be on medication' amid his bipolar diagnosis. Earlier this year, he claimed bipolar disorder was a misdiagnosis and said he has since been correctly diagnosed with autism, which is not a mental illness. Low profile: While leaving the family diner, Kanye tried to keep a low profile and pulled the hood of his jacket over his head as they strolled to their car
