Machine Gun Kelly is said to have undergone his shock body blackout tattoo to show his girlfriend Megan Fox he can “change” for the sake of their turbulent relationship.

The 33-year-old singer – born Colson Baker – stunned fans on Tuesday (20.02.24) when he posted images on social media showing he has had both arms and his torso covered in dark ink – which came days after his actress partner, 37, displayed her dramatic new tattoo sleeve at the People’s Choice Awards.

An insider has told the DailyMail.com about MGK’s motivation behind his astonishing tattoo: “Colson has told Megan that one major reason he did his latest blackout tattoo was not only for a spiritual reason, but he also wanted her to know he did it for her.

“He wants her to know that no matter what one does with their own body, they both share each other and his body is her body and he also wants to remove so much confusion from his previous tattoos.

“He wants to move the confusion that ends up in their relationship from time to time and show her he can change for the benefit of himself and their relationship.

“He wanted to let her know that the new ink was also a testament to her and where they can go from here, that as much joy they have had with each other, he wants it to be a blank space and make new memories and make a new love bond with each other.

“It sounds very deep, but it is genuine and Megan is eating it up and loves it.”

MGK announced to fans on his Instagram he had got the huge tattoo for “spiritual reasons” and said it took 44 needles to finish.

He and Megan have been in an on-off relationship since 2020, and were recently revealed to have suffered a devastating miscarriage, with Megan telling ‘Good Morning America’ it was “very difficult for both of us”.
