Machine Gun Kelly is opening up about his sobriety journey.
During an appearance on Bunnie Xo‘s podcast Dumb Blonde on Monday, Aug. 5, the ‘Emo Girl’ musician candidly discussed his struggles with mental health and alcohol abuse, revealing that he is now “completely sober from everything.”
“I don’t drink anymore. I haven’t drunk since last August,” he said.

Following his 2023 European tour, the 34-year-old shared that he went to rehab — and not many people knew.
“I didn’t tell anybody outside of those closest to me, but I went to rehab right when we got off the European tour last year,” MGK, born Colson Baker, explained. “That was my first time ever going to rehab, and they 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.”
“You hold to that,” Bunnie—who starred in the rapper’s ‘Lonely Road’ music video alongside her husband, Jelly Roll, and Kelly’s fiancée, Megan Fox—said when praising Kelly’s sobriety. “Because I actually wanted you to have a drinking contest with my husband and you were like, ‘No, I’m sober.’”
