American musician Machine Gun Kelly has been filmed in the midst of a blow-up during his Louder Than Life music festival set in Louisville, USA.
The 31-year-old lost his temper at a concertgoer who was one of many seen in the phone footage to be storming the stage. Security tried to control the situation which began with boos from the crowd and MGK being given the finger mid-performance.
Machine Gun Kelly played Chicago’s Riot Fest on 19 September, where he criticised fellow headliner Slipknot’s lead singer Corey Taylor for “being 50 years old, wearing a f…ing weird mask on a f…ing stage, talking sh.t”. . . Which may explain the not-so-hot response to MGK’s Louder Than Life set.
The 47-year-old was due to appear on MGK’s album ‘Tickets To My Downfall’, but the collaboration didn’t get the green light because it was, in MGK’s words, “f…ing terrible”.
corey did a verse for a song on tickets to my downfall album, it was fucking terrible, so i didn’t use it.

he got mad about it, and talked shit to a magazine about the same album he was almost on.
yalls stories are all off.
just admit he’s bitter.
“I don’t like people airing private sh.t like a child,” Corey tweeted in response. “So this is all I’ll say: I didn’t do the track because I don’t like when people try to ‘write’ for me. I said NO to THEM.”
This drama comes not too long after an incident on the red carpet of the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards, where MGK got into a scuffle with MMA fighter Conor McGregor.
“Absolutely nothing happened. I don't know. He showed up, and I don't know. I don't know the guy,” Conor told Entertainment Tonight.
“Nothing happened with me, I only fight real fighters, people that actually fight, you know what I mean? I certainly don't fight little vanilla boy rappers. I don't even know the guy. I don't know anything about him, except that he's with Megan Fox.”
