Someone on the internet cooked up a fake Machine Gun Kelly tweet so juicy, so perfectly written, so emotionally devastating that millions of people believed it without a second thought. And honestly? We get it. It was good fiction.
The Tweet That Wasn’t
The fabricated post, shared as a screenshot on Monday October 12th alongside recent photos of Megan Fox looking absolutely stunning, read:
“Seeing these new pictures of Megan genuinely makes me wanna throw my phone into a f***** wall. I had the baddest woman to ever walk this planet in love with me and somehow found a way to f*** it all up. Imagine fumbling the girl of your dreams and then having to watch the entire world remind you how beautiful she is. I’ll never forgive myself for that.”*
Was it real? No. Was it extremely well-written fan fiction that tapped directly into the cultural conversation around their split? Absolutely. The post spread everywhere — and the comments were a rollercoaster of sympathy, mockery, and people tagging their exes.
MGK’s Actual Response
Here’s where it gets fun. MGK — whose real name is Colson Baker — saw the viral fake and replied under the screenshot with the kind of succinctness that only someone who genuinely doesn’t care can muster:
that tweet is faker than a pair of tits
— Machine Gun Kelly (@machinegunkelly)
Delicious.
Where Things Actually Stand
MGK and Megan Fox split in December 2024 after a turbulent engagement. In March 2025, they welcomed daughter Saga Blade — yes, that’s her actual name — and have been co-parenting since. Fox has been living her absolute best life publicly, which the internet has been very vocal about.
The Takeaway
The fake tweet was so convincing because it felt true to the vibe of the situation. But MGK’s response reminded everyone that he is, above all else, a chaos agent who will not be playing the heartbroken ex role for anyone.
Respect, honestly.
