Machine Gun Kelly makes rare red-carpet appearance with daughter Casie: See the photos
Machine Gun Kelly may be an award-winning musician, but fatherhood remains the top gig.
The Grammy-nominated rap-rocker (real name: Colson Baker) stepped out with his eldest daughter, Casie Baker, for a rare red-carpet appearance at the 2025 Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards on June 21. Kelly shares Casie, 15, with his ex Emma Cannon.
He "definitely gives a lot of advice. He's more like a hype man, though," Casie told People magazine in an interview ahead of the ceremony, to which Kelly replied, "Yeah, I'm a cheerleader." The teen added that her rockstar dad encourages her to be herself.
For their Kids' Choice Awards appearance, Casie was dolled up in a strapless bubblegum pink dress, while Kelly kept things sleek in an all-black romper and matching boots.
Machine Gun Kelly reveals baby's name, gives shout-out to ex-fiancée Megan Fox
Kelly has been busy in the fatherhood department as of late. The "My Ex's Best Friend" singer welcomed a daughter, Saga Blade Fox-Baker, in March with ex-fianceé Megan Fox.
"Megan is in the no sleep club, for sure," Kelly, 35, told People. "Women are in the rougher trenches of the newborn process, but my specialty is music and laughs and whatever I can do to make her smile and kind of get introduced to the world with love."
Earlier this week, Kelly revealed the baby's name in a June 17 Instagram post, which included an adorable video of the singer serenading the infant with a ukulele.
Casie gushed that becoming an older sister has been "fun," adding, "It's really just so cute. I love her so much."

Saga marks Kelly and Fox's first child after calling off their January 2022 engagement. In a March 2024 interview on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, Fox declined to go into detail about their current relationship status.
"I think that what I've learned from being in this relationship is that it's not for public consumption, so I think, as of now, I don't have a comment on the status of the relationship, per se," she said. "What I can say is: That is what I refer to as being my 'twin soul,' and there will always be a tether to him no matter what."

Cardi B Says ‘We're Outside'—And That's Exactly Where We're Going
Source: Antony Jones / Getty Cardi B just gave us permission to be outside all summer long with the official drop of 'Outside.' And the way this track is hitting, you'd better believe we're heading there now with a fresh nail set, poppin lip gloss, and no apologies. Dropped on Friday, June 20, Cardi's song is already shaping up to be the summer anthem. We've been looking for one – and it seems like we have it. After weeks of teasing fans with snippets on social media and lyrics that hit all too well, Cardi finally let the full version loose. And, yes, it's giving everything it needs to give. RELATED: Cardi B Is Flexing A New Man And A New Chapter On Instagram – And We Love To See It Source: Antony Jones / Getty Cardi B previewed 'Outside' two days ago during a performance at the Spotify Beach event in Cannes, France. Knowing the fire she was about to spit, the femee looked the TF good for the stage moment. Braving the summer temps, the New York raptness rocked a striped fringe dress we loved. The custom mini moment hugged her curves just right and oozed retro realness. The flirty design and fun fabric were the perfect complement to the beats – and bars – she dropped. The 'Bongos' rapper paired her dress with a fierce pair of Maison Margiela booties in a matching orange tone, adorned with a touch of fringe magic. Cardi completed her Cannes look with voluminous black curls, a buss-down middle part, and glam makeup. While 'Outside' is built for the club, it was written with raw honesty. Cardi doesn't hold back—and that's exactly what makes this one resonate. 'When I tell you these n—–s ain't shit, please believe me,' Cardi says on 'Outside.' 'They gon' fck on anything, these n—–s way too easy / Good for nothing, low-down, dirty dogs, I'm convinced / Next time you see your momma, tell her how she raised a btch.' In her Instagram Stories, Cardi revealed that she originally wrote the song while angry. (She joked she had to edit a few lyrics because of her raw emotion). 'Outside' isn't just about shaking something (though we absolutely will); it's about living your best life and reclaiming your peace, self-love, and confidence. Whether you're heading to a rooftop party, brunch with your girls, or making a dramatic exit from whatever no longer serves you, Cardi's got you covered. We don't know if a video or remix is coming, but we're sure something is coming. And when it drops, we'll be ready – and already 'Outside.'

Jussie Smollett announces engagement to boyfriend Jabari Redd
The "Empire" alum photos from his proposal to boyfriend Jabari Redd. Smollett shared the moment unfolded just one day before his 43rd birthday celebration. "I'll be spending my birthday with my Fiancé," he wrote in the caption. "He said YES. 💍." The snaps in the post captured the moment Smollett proposed to Redd near a restaurant, from getting down on one knee to slipping the ring on his fiancé's finger. The slideshow ended with joyful shots of the couple celebrating with hugs, laughter and a close-up of the ring. Family and friends later flooded the comment section with love and congratulations. "Screaming with tears of joy," Jussie's little sister and actress Jurnee Smollett wrote. "My whole heart loves both of you @jussiesmollett. Welcome to the family @jabriredd." Their other sister, Jazz Smollett, added, "Yaaaass!!! Welcome to the family Jabari!!! Love y'all!! Sooooo happy for you both! 🥰🥰🥰." The news comes after Smollett recently reached a settlement with the city of Chicago in a civil case related to the city's efforts to recover costs from its investigation into a 2019 incident that authorities claim was a staged hate crime. Smollett has always maintained he is innocent. As part of the agreement, the city dropped its lawsuit in exchange for a $50,000 donation from Smollett to a local arts nonprofit, marking a formal end to the years-long legal battle. In a statement shared on Instagram last month, Smollett said he chose to settle by making a charitable donation, not as an admission of guilt, but to move forward from what he described as a "false narrative" that he said "has left a stain on my character that will not soon disappear." "These officials wanted my money and wanted my confession for something I did not do," he said. "Today, it should be clear… They have received neither." He said his decision to settle "was not the most difficult one to make" and announced an additional $10,000 donation to the Chicago Torture Justice Center, saying he stands with others who've had to prove their truth. Meanwhile, the city said in an official statement that the settlement offers "a fair, constructive, and conclusive resolution, allowing all the parties to close this six-year-old chapter and move forward." In November, the Illinois Supreme Court overturned Smollett's 2021 conviction for allegedly filing a false police report about a hate crime in 2019, stating in its decision that the case violated his due process rights and raised questions about the state's obligation to honor agreements made with defendants. In March 2019, Smollett forfeited his $10,000 bond to the city and agreed to perform 16 hours of community service as part of an agreement to drop all criminal charges related to the alleged false report, according to then-Cook County first assistant state attorney Joe Magats.

Solange Wore a Deconstructed Skirt at Telfar's 20th Anniversary Show
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." If Solange's style could be described in two words, it would be elegant and experimental. Much like her music, it's a balance she's mastered again and again, and last night was no different. In honor of Telfar's 20th anniversary, the Grammy-winning artist attended the brand's high-energy runway show during Juneteenth weekend in New York City. A vibrant celebration and display of community, Solange was one of the many recognizable faces in attendance to support founder and designer Telfar Clemens. For the event, the Grammy award-winning singer stepped out in her go-to color palette of dark-toned neutrals. Wearing a summer-appropriate bra-as-top sculptural black bandeau, she made a statement with the cropped fit cut cleanly across her chest. But the real standout of her look was her choice of bottom. She opted for a bold, deconstructed piece that combined a classic pinstriped button-down and a leather skirt into one seamless design. The shirt element was tied around the hips, creating an asymmetric, draped effect that added fluidity to her outfit. On her feet, she kept things sleek with square-toe black thong sandals. The minimal silhouette contrasted with the volume and movement of the skirt. As for her glam, Solange went for her signature understated and minimal makeup. Her barely-there approach featured a glowy and radiant base, lightly feathered brows, and a glossy pink lip. She also kept her hair down and loose in her usual waves.
