Machine Gun Kelly bonds with daughter at 2025 Kids' Choice Awards after opening up on Megan Fox relationship
Machine Gun Kelly enjoyed a rare outing with his daughter Casie as they attended the 2025 Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards in Santa Monica on Saturday.
The 35-year-old Bad Things rapper — who recently broke his silence on his relationship with Megan Fox — flashed a cheerful smile as he joined his eldest child on the star-studded orange carpet ahead of the main ceremony.
The music artist shares the 15-year-old with ex Emma Cannon. He is also father to a newborn baby girl named Saga Blade whom he welcomed with Fox in March.
MGK — whose real name is Colson Baker — donned a black corduroy jumpsuit as well as a pair of black boots.
The ensemble was partially unzipped around the collar and he completed the outfit by adding a silver-chained necklace.
Casie was also dressed for the occasion wearing a light purple minidress with ruched details and a strip of fabric flowed down towards the ground on the left side.
She slipped into a pair of silver strappy heels and allowed her dark locks to cascade down in light waves past her shoulders.
MGK and Casie last walked the red carpet together four years ago while at the American Music Awards in 2021.
Kelly later had an outfit change as he took to the stage to perform for the live audience inside the venue at Barker Hangar.
He sported a long-sleeved white top as well as a printed black shirt and loose-fitting denim jeans.
At the end of his performance, the rapper was covered with green smile and tossed his arms into the air seconds afterwards.
MGK later strutted back onto the orange carpet to pose for photos while covered in the neon green slime.
In one image, the star placed his hands on top of his head with a shocked expression while his daughter Casie was seen in a fit of laughter.
His appearance at the awards show comes shortly after he broke his silence on his relationship with ex-fiancée Megan Fox following their split late last year in November.

While stopping by the Today show this week on Friday, Kelly gushed that, 'Megan is a great mom.'
The name of their baby girl — Saga Blade Fox-Baker — was recently revealed and the rapper added, 'She's killing it. I'm so excited.'
He opened up about the special meaning behind their child's moniker and explained it was in reference to his and Megan's journey to having a baby.
The Transformers actress previously had a miscarriage and he said of Saga's name: 'Coming back again, disappearing, coming back again. She is an epic story. And that's what Saga means.
'I'm also of Norwegian heritage so that's the Nordic goddess of storytelling,' MGK continued. 'I think she has a storytelling future ahead of her.'
A few months earlier in March, the actress welcomed her fourth child - and first - with Machine Gun Kelly.
At the time, MGK jumped to social media to announce that the little one had been born and wrote, 'She's finally here!! our little celestial seed 3/27/25.'
The music artist also included a black and white video of the infant's tiny hand wrapping around one of his fingers.
The pair have since been navigating co-parenting the newborn after Megan officially split from the Bad Things rapper late last year in November after reportedly discovering he was talking to other women behind her back.
Last month in May, Fox revealed that her baby with Kelly had been unplanned as she took to her Instagram stories.
She uploaded a video of herself at six weeks pregnant and penned to her followers, '38 years old six weeks pregnant (unplanned but a happy surprise).'
Megan continued, 'Please stop listening to the patriarchy. Women are eternal light beings. We do not have an expiration date. Don't let them rob you of your power.'
Along with her new baby girl, the actress is also mom to Noah, 12, Bodhi, 11, and Journey, eight, whom she shares with ex-husband Brian Austin Green.
MGK has since given other small glimpses of Saga on his Instagram page, such as a snap of him holding the little one which was taken through the reflection of a vehicle.
One of the big winners at the Kids' Choice Awards was Rihanna, who was honored with the Icon Award.
Even though she didn't attend in person, she delivered an acceptance speech via video.

Other celebrities at the Kids' Choice Awards included Ice Spice, who walked the orange carpet earlier in the evening.

How Katy Perry hinted at Orlando Bloom split in heartbreaking song about BETRAYAL on new album
Fans of Katy Perry believe that the pop star may have hinted at her split with Orlando Bloom on her recent album, 143. While the majority of Katy's 143 is a celebration of love and womanhood, one dark track on the album called Truth stands out for its lyrics about the demise of a relationship. 'I wanna know the truth / Even if it hurts me,' Perry sings on the chorus. 'I got a vision keepin' me up at night / My intuition's tellin' me things ain't right,' she continued. 'Can't look in the mirror, what is it you're tryna hide? / Can't give me your password to your phone, not start a fight / You're treating me different, tell me what's going through your mind? 'You're acting so distant, who you see when you close your eyes?' Eventually the lyrics change tone in the song and Katy finds the strength to walk away from her painful relationship. 'I look in the mirror / See someone who's calm and strong / I've never been clearer / I'm at peace with moving on,' she sings through heavy autotune. 'I'm seein' it different / Now that I'm outside of the storm / I'm feeling the distance / It's always dark before the dawn.' Although the song received little attention when it was first released, fans are now revisiting it in the wake of the couple's reported split. 'Who's here after the breakup rumors?' one fan commented on YouTube. 'So is this song about Orlando?' asked another while a third commented, 'Did he do something? Cause even back then I did think this song is so odd to be in a full love album.' Perry and Bloom called it quits following weeks of escalating tension after nearly a decade of their on–off relationship, six years of being engaged and one child together. This comes just shortly after the 40-year-old pop star went to space, drawing significant backlash amid viral videos trolling her world tour and her poor-performing album 143. 'Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,' a source told Us Weekly, adding that the break-up was so far 'not contentious.' 'Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life,' they said. The source described the alleged split as 'a long time coming' and claimed their relations 'have been tense for months.' For now, Katy is reportedly staying 'distracted' with her tour and caring for her and Orlando's four-year-old daughter Daisy, who was seen joining her while the 48-year-old English actor was elsewhere. However, the Lord Of The Rings star later returned to Australia — where Katy has spent the month of June on tour — and reunited with his fiancée and daughter over the past week. Despite once again being on the same continent as her fiancé, Katy has been spotted multiple times without her wedding ring in Australia. Katy released 143 last September to disappointing results on the charts and scathing reviews from critics. Album 143 - which references the expression 'I love you', but is also what Katy considers to be her symbolic 'angel number' - was her first album in four years, following Smile in 2020. The album missed the top five on the charts and failed to yield any hit singles. Lead single Woman's World peaked at No. 63 before disappearing, while follow up tracks Lifetimes and I'm His, He's Mine missed the charts entirely.

'F1' opens with $55 million, delivering Apple its biggest big-screen hit
Apple has its first box-office hit. 'F1 The Movie' debuted with $55.6 million in North American theaters and $144 million globally over the weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday, handing the tech company easily its biggest opening yet. Though Apple Original Films has had some notable successes in its six years in Hollywood — including the 2021 Oscar-winner 'CODA' — its theatrical results have been decidedly mixed. Misfires like 'Argylle' and 'Fly Me to the Moon' and big-budget awards plays like Ridley Scott's 'Napoleon' and Martin Scorsese's 'Killers of the Flower Moon' have been better at driving viewers to Apple TV+ than movie theaters. But 'F1' was Apple's first foray into summer blockbuster territory. It won a bidding war for the project from much of the production team behind the 2022 box-office smash 'Top Gun: Maverick.' Apple then partnered with Warner Bros. to distributed the film starring Brad Pitt, Damson Idris and Kerry Condon. With a production budget over $200 million, 'F1' still has several laps to go to turn a profit. But for now, 'F1' is full speed ahead. ''F1 The Movie' puts the pedal to the metal in an impressive overperformance for this original summer movie that had one of the most comprehensive and exciting marketing blitzes in recent memory and it paid off big for the film,' said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for data firm Comscore. Car racing movies have often struggled in theaters; crash-and-burn cases include Ron Howard's 'Rush' (2013) and Michael Mann's 'Ferrari' (2023). But 'F1' built off of the Formula 1 fandom stirred up by the popular series 'Formula 1: Drive to Survive.' And it leaned on 'Top Gun: Maverick' director Joseph Kosinski and producer Jerry Bruckheimer to deliver another adult-oriented action thrill ride. Like they did in 'Top Gun: Maverick,' the filmmakers sought an adrenaline rush by placing IMAX cameras inside the cockpit in 'F1.' IMAX and large-format screens accounted for 55% of in its ticket sales. IMAX, whose screens are much sought-after in the summer, has carved out a three-week run for the movie. Reviews have been very good for 'F1' and audience reaction (an 'A' via CinemaScore) was even better. That suggests 'F1' could hold up well in the coming weeks despite some formidable coming competition in Universal Pictures' 'Jurassic World Rebirth.' Universal's 'M3gan 2.0' had been expected to pose a greater challenge to 'F1.' Instead, the robot doll sequel didn't come close to matching the 2022 original's box-office launch. 'M3gan 2.0' collected $10.2 million in 3,112 theaters. Memes and viral videos helped propel the first 'M3gan' to a $30.4 million opening and a total haul of $180 million, all on a $12 million budget. Still, the Blumhouse Productions horror thriller could wind up profitable. The film, written and directed by Gerald Johnstone, cost a modest $25 million to make. A spinoff titled 'Soulm8te' is scheduled for release next year. M3gan 2.0' ended up in fourth place. The box-office leader of the last two weekends, 'How to Train Your Dragon,' slid to second with $19.4 million. The DreamWorks Animation live-action hit from Universal Pictures has surpassed $200 million domestically in three weeks. After a debut that marked a new low for Pixar, the studio's 'Elio' gathered up $10.7 million in sales in its second weekend. That gives the Walt Disney Co. release a disappointing two-week start of $42.2 million. Top 10 movies by domestic box office With final domestic figures being released Monday, this list factors in the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore: 1. 'F1 The Movie,' $55 million. 2. 'How to Train Your Dragon,' $19.4 million. 3. 'Elio,' $10.7 million. 4. 'M3gan 2.0,' $10.2 million. 5. '28 Years Later,' $9.7 million. 6. 'Lilo & Stitch,' $6.9 million. 7. 'Mission: Impossible — Final Reckoning,' $4.2 million. 8. 'Materialists,' $3 million. 9. 'Ballerina,' $2.1 million. 10. 'Karate Kid: Legends,' $1 million.

Krispy Kreme unveils its Stars, Stripes, & Sweetness Collection to help fans celebrate 4th of July
Krispy Kreme kicked off its 4th of July festivities this week with an all-new donut collection. The chain's Stars, Stripes & Sweetness Collection features Independence Day-themed treats that are making customers enter sugar comas. The collection includes three donuts: Freedom Ring, USA Part, and Vanilla Cookies & Kreme Liberty Crunch. 'Whether you're headed to parades, parties or pools for the holiday, our Stars, Stripes & Sweetness Collection is the perfect addition to sweeten your Fourth of July celebrations and make the day a blast,' said chief growth officer Dave Skena. 'Thank you for giving me another reason to visit,' a fan joked on a Krispy Kreme's Instagram post. 'Best looking 1 million calories in the world,' another person commented. Krispy Kreme will conclude its celebration on the holiday by giving out free glazed donuts to customers who wear red, white and blue at participating shops. The donut empire's latest collection comes after the chain and McDonald's announced their plan to terminate their partnership on July 2. A few commenters highly praised the chain's 'amazing' freedom donuts, which are glazed treats dipped in white icing, blue sprinkles, and white stars. The chain finished off the first of its American-filled masterpieces with red icing stripes. Customers also spoke highly of USA Party, a glazed donut with white buttercreme topped with a USA party sprinkle blend and sugar piece. The collection's third and final product was made for fans looking to try an unglazed donut with vanilla cookies & Kreme filling dipped in white icing. The chain topped the donut off with vanilla cookies, patriotic sprinkles, and a white icing drizzle. Besides its 4th of July collection, Krispy Kreme is offering its customers a box of a dozen glazed donuts for only $12. This deal is only available for a limited time and will end by closing time today at participating stores. Although most customers were thrilled about the latest additions, some of them slammed Krispy Kreme for removing or not adding glazed donuts to McDonald's locations. Krispy Kreme made headlines after announcing its partnership with McDonald's will be terminated Krispy Kreme and McDonald's partnership made headlines after they began the collaboration in 2022. The chains started out slowly by testing the donut sales at 9 McDonald's restaurants in Kentucky. The idea expanded to other stores nationwide, and by 2024, the companies had planned to offer Krispy Kreme donuts in all US locations by next year. Plans changed once McDonald's US sales fell 3.6 percent and Krispy Kreme's organic revenue dropped by 1 percent. Donuts were being offered in over 2,400 McDonald's restaurants when the companies decided to pause the partnership last month before pulling the plug this week. The chains announced the termination only a couple of weeks after Krispy Kreme sold its remaining ownership stake in Insomnia Cookies. The company earned $75 million from the sale, and is planning on using the money to pay off debt, which currently sits at around $1 billion.
