Machine Gun Kelly celebrated a personal milestone by acknowledging his lady love. During his recent interview with Bunnie XO for his Dumb Blonde podcast, the rapper opened up about his sobriety journey. Machine also shared his gratitude towards his now-fiancée, Megan Fox whom he started dating in 2020. Additionally, he also revealed the COVID-19 pandemic also stopped him from doing cocaine. For now, he has been completely clean for more than a year. Let’s check out the interesting facts he disclosed during the interview.
Machine Gun Kelly said cocaine was the s**t to him
The rapper who was first introduced to drugs at just 11 years of age shared how his addiction became serious over time until his 20s.
MGK explained, “It started with weed and alcohol and then I really loved snorting Vyvanse. The work ethic that came, being able to lock in on something and be like, ‘Oh my God. I just wrote six songs in two hours,… Loved hydrocodone. Loved Percocet.”
However, the COVID-19 pandemic helps a lot with his addiction problem. As he shared, “Cocaine was the s**t to me… I’m so socially awkward, but I would do that before I went somewhere and I would leave and be like, ‘I just f**king killed that s**t in there. Everyone loves me, dude,.. [It gave me] this false sense of superman syndrome. COVID really helped that because… none of the dealers would leave their house.”
Moreover, he also acknowledged the role of his now-fiancée, Megan Fox in helping him deal with the addiction issues.
“That woman struck a bullseye. When I felt that sense light up, everything else went away and I learned what it was to accept living. It gave purpose to everything I was confused as to why I was here for,” the rapper gushed of his ladylove.
He also thanked the actress noting, “I’m forever grateful to God and indebted to the destiny lines that wove me and her together… When I saw her eyes for the first time, it was like I had a telescope to every secret in the universe. I think what followed that really proved what moving with love does.”
As for the recent updates the rapper is completely clean from August 2023.
On this huge personal milestone, he shared, “I went to rehab right after we got off the European tour last year. That was my first time ever going to rehab. Man, it just gave me so many ways to operate the body and show where this anger is coming from and methods to quell it,… I ended up falling into an awareness of what my condition is and have made peace with it. It’s a constant tightrope walk.”
