Machine Gun Kelly leaves American Music Awards early to be with new baby
Machine Gun Kelly left the American Music Awards after the red carpet on Monday so he could be reunited with his two-month-old daughter.
The Cliche hitmaker, who shares the baby with actress Megan Fox, was expected to present during the music awards show but he revealed to E! News that he was leaving after the red carpet to take care of his unwell daughter.
"She has a little bit of a fever," he told the publication at the Las Vegas event. "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, real name Colson Baker, noted that their daughter is doing "great" otherwise and added, "I was born to be a dad. Yeah, it's my purpose."
The musician, who has a 15-year-old daughter named Casie from a previous relationship, also gushed over the baby in an interview with Access Hollywood.
"I'm just so elated, It's just awesome," he said about being a father again. "They smell so good... I was just meant to be a dad."
MGK announced the arrival of his and Megan's first child together on 27 March.
The former couple, who called off their engagement last year, haven't clarified their relationship status but it has been reported that they're no longer together.
His red carpet appearance comes shortly after the Transformers actress called the pregnancy "unplanned but a happy surprise" on her Instagram Stories.
The Jennifer's Body star also shares sons Noah, 12, Bodhi, 11, and Journey, eight, with her ex-husband Brian Austin Green.
