Machine Gun Kelly bookended his Saturday Night Live debut with an eventful start and end.
The singer/rapper/actor, 30, proved romance wasn t dead upon entering 30 Rockefeller Plaza, the iconic New York City building that hosts SNL, by literally sweeping girlfriend Megan Fox off her feet and carrying her in, per a video he posted to his Instagram story Saturday.
The two were surrounded by masked paparazzi and fans hoping to snap a photo of the couple, neither of them wearing a mask in the video.
The artist, whose real name is Colson Baker, appeared on the sketch comedy show for the first time Jan. 30, appearing alongside The Office and A Quiet Place actor John Krasinski, who also made his debut after his original appearance last March was postponed by COVID-19.
“So government doesn’t work and, frankly, I regret not taking that gun.”
“I’m not an actor, I’m a[n action hero and not just a Jim Halpert] star!!”
For the first
Saturday Night Live of this year of please-god-let-it-be-different, 2021, I’m here to paraphrase Stefon. This
SNL had everything: a host who threw himself into sketches; the return of Li’l Baby Aidy; a political but not impression-driven cold open; a genuinely weird ten-to-one sketch;
Bowen Yang as Fran Lebowitz; and that thing where everyone seems to be having a good time and even the mediocre premises are lifted up by the sheer professionalism on display.
