Machine Gun Kelly Celebrates Pete Davidson Becoming a Dad

Machine Gun Kelly is welcoming Pete Davidson to the celeb dad club with open arms. 

For some time now, Colson Baker (also known as MGK) has been a father to a 15-year-old daughter, Casie, whom he shares with ex Emma Cannon. This year, he added another role to his life when he and ex Megan Fox became parents to a baby girl, Saga Blade, born in March at just 3 months old. So, when MGK learned that one of his longtime friends was expecting a child as well, his excitement couldn’t wait to be expressed.

On July 23, the rapper posted an Instagram photo featuring a broad grin while he displayed a comedian on his phone during a FaceTime chat. Notably, when Elsie Hewitt, Pete’s girlfriend, announced their pregnancy on her own Instagram post on July 16, MGK responded with the comment “These playdates are about to go off!

Back in 2017, Pete and MGK first crossed paths on the set of MTV’s show Wild ‘N Out. However, their bond deepened when they collaborated on the 2019 Mötley Crüe film The Dirt, which was filmed in New Orleans. In a chat with People magazine in April, Pete affectionately referred to MGK as his “dearest friend.

35-year-old MGK recounts their strong relationship, mentioning that it was initiated during a shared night in New Orleans.

In his 2020 interview on The Howard Stern Show, he remembered that he was the only other individual who used marijuana. This shared habit created a connection between them.

However, he went on to share that his friendship with Pete, 31, only grew from there.

The rapper expressed that since he doesn’t have any biological brothers, seeing someone like Pete is similar to having a little brother for him. He also mentioned that Pete is his closest friend.

He added, “Having Pete around is like having a sibling for me, since I was an only child. To me, that’s a dream come true – to have a brother or sister. That’s what Pete represents for me.

For quite some time now, they’ve maintained a close friendship and have collaborated on various projects. In the movie “A Wrinkle in Time,” you might recognize them as costars, with Mindy Kaling additionally appearing as a recurring character on “The Morning Show.” Furthermore, it’s worth noting that she is currently penning the script for “Legally Blonde 3” alongside others. The level of strangeness here is fairly low (3/10).

A Food Network celebrity and former cast member of “Mean Girls” initially bonded during a vacation in Dubai, a connection that has deepened over time. Notably, Ayesha Curry and Stephen Curry were appointed as godparents to Lindsay and her husband Bader Shammas’ child, Laui.

In July 2023, the two stars who shared a role in the 2014 movie “Men, Women & Children,” met up again for a friendly game of basketball outdoors in New York City.

The actor has collaborated with the rapper from Wu-Tang Clan on numerous films such as “The Man with the Iron Fists,” “American Gangster,” and “The Next Three Days.” However, their relationship transcends their professional work. As friends, they communicate openly, and Crowe shares, “We chat regularly.” He further explains, “Offering advice to a friend comes naturally for me in any context. In the world of film, there are multiple entities that need to be respected and satisfied – I like to refer to them as ‘gods.’ As a director, one must strive to please and accommodate all these forces.

Prior to their reunion at Wimbledon, an unexpected pair initially met on the set of “Downton Abbey”. As Dockery shared with TopMob News, she had arrived on set together with her brother James some years back. They were both avid admirers of the show.

In a shift from being a footballer to a soccer player after relocating to L.A., he established a friendship with the local rapper. On Snoop’s reality show, Beckham made an appearance; they engaged in friendly soccer games and Snoop shared his fresh tunes with David before anyone else. Strangeness level: 8/10.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I can tell you that the two ex-child actors, who graced our screens in the movies ‘Twilight’ and ‘The Runaways’, share a bond that transcends their professional lives. Dakota Fanning, one of them, puts it eloquently: “When we hang out, we don’t delve into movie matters.” This friendship appears to be more about shared experiences and personal connections rather than the silver screen. Strangeness level: Mildly peculiar, yet heartwarming.

The two hung out together in the aughts and maintained their friendship over the years.

Despite having distinct styles in fashion (Anna, I’ve never seen you bedazzled), these two found common ground in the front row at an Oscar de la Renta show. Notably, Anna was mentioned by Nicki Minaj in one of her rap verses. The oddity factor here is approximately 7/10.

Fiddy and Bette make quite an unusual pair! They both work for the New York Restoration Project, where Bette declared, ‘He’s one of our latest additions. He truly makes my life meaningful.'” The weirdness factor remains high at 9/10.

As a committed admirer, I’d say Taylor is self-declared as an upstanding gal. Lena isn’t shy about shaking things up. Yet, they both hold a deep regard for each other, and the creator of Girls deemed Taylor’s performance as the “most inspiring experience I’ve had.” The quirk factor here hovers around 6/10.

For some time now, the actress who once played the lead in “The King of Queens” has been very close friends with Jennifer Lopez, often sharing a common interest in fashion and playfully exchanging affectionate messages on Twitter using the hashtag “#luckybesties.” Strangeness level: 3/10.

It turns out that the deity of Goop (a reference to Gwyneth Paltrow’s company) is personally acquainted with both Jay-Z and Beyoncé, a fact that may catch some people off guard. Interestingly enough, Gwyneth has a deep appreciation for rap music, and her children affectionately refer to Jay-Z as “Uncle Jay.” The level of strangeness here is moderate: 5/10.

It’s not typical to think that the handsome actor, Brad Pitt, would be friends with the guy from Superbad, but consider this: Pitt is known for his pranks (as confirmed by Jonah), and Jonah has now become a serious Oscar nominee (for their movie Moneyball). The strangeness factor here is about 6/10.

At the 2001 Grammy Awards, the contentious rapper collaborated with Sir Elton John. Later on, Eminem sought support from his newfound friend as he struggled to overcome addiction, saying, “I confided in him, ‘You know I’m facing difficulties and I need your guidance.'” Weirdness: 7/10 (This version maintains the original structure and meaning while using simpler language and smoother transitions.)
