When asked by Vogue whether they anticipated their engagement becoming “a huge mega-story,” Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly didn’t give the answer we would have expected. “Are you aware of it?” Fox asked her fiance. “I don’t really look at social media or anything, so I don’t know.”
When the interviewer pointed out that they had announced the engagement on social media, Machine Gun said, “We released it to control the narrative.” He added, “I didn’t expect it. I just recorded it on my cell phone. And it wasn’t like we had photographers or anything. It was just like me setting my phone against a cup.”
Okay, we’re sorry, but come on now. Fox and Machine Gun have been in the celebrity news nearly every day since they first got together. And to be honest, they seem to enjoy going out of their way to highlight the weirder aspects of their particular bond (see: blood-drinking). Or in an interview with British GQ, in which the couple describe first meeting: Fox said, “You smell like weed,” and Machine Gun responded, “I am weed.” There’s nothing wrong with being weird and famous and in love! But you have to know that people are gonna be interested.
