Machine Gun Kelly has shared his disbelief after vandals targeting the musician with homophobic graffiti painted the “wrong bus”.
The rapper, 32, took to Instagram Stories to clarify that while a van in his fleet of tour buses for his bandmates and crew had been vandalised with a drawing of a penis and a homophobic slur, it was not in fact the van he was staying in.
Machine Gun Kelly – real name Colson Baker – said the van was spray-painted while he was on tour in Nebraska, but it was washed off before he could see it.
He said in a series of videos captioned “couldn’t even do the crime right smh” the vandal was a “f**king idiot”.
“You’re so dumb. You spray-painted a bus thinking it was my bus. Wrong bus, you f**king idiot,” Baker said from his bed.
He added: “You could have been at home, cuddling with your partner or doing something, and instead you were like, ‘Goddamn it, I just wish he’d go up to his hotel room so I can spray paint this d**k’.
“They washed it off before I even saw it. Aren’t you sad? I’m still in bed, I didn’t even get to enjoy it.”
While the rapper is best known as a musician, with his upcoming UK tour due to come to London, Glasgow, Birmingham and Leeds, Baker has also recently made headlines for his whirlwind relationship with Jennifer’s Body icon Megan Fox.
The couple met while filming Midnight in the Switchgrass in March 2020 and they were soon spotted spending time together in May that year.
In January, Baker and bisexual icon Fox celebrated their engagement, claiming they “drank each other’s blood” after the proposal in Puerto Rico.
Sharing footage of the proposal on Instagram, Fox said: “In July of 2020 we sat under this banyan tree. We asked for magic. We were oblivious to the pain we would face together in such a short, frenetic period of time.
“Unaware of the work and sacrifices the relationship would require from us but intoxicated off the love. And the karma.
“Somehow a year-and-a-half later, having walked through hell together, and having laughed more than I ever imagined possible, he asked me to marry him.
“And just as in every lifetime before this one, and as in every lifetime that will follow it, I said yes… and then we drank each other’s blood.”
