MGK Banned From TSA PreCheck and Reportedly Blocked by Megan Fox

TSA Trouble and Social Media Silence: MGK's Rough Week

It turns out that being a platinum-selling rock star doesn't exempt you from the dreaded TSA security line. Machine Gun Kelly, real name Colson Baker, recently opened up about the travel hurdles he faces due to a past legal mistake. Speaking on the Take Flight podcast, the 36-year-old singer revealed that his days of breezing through airport security are long gone.

Why MGK is Stuck in the "Normal" Line

During the interview, MGK explained that a previous drug possession charge has permanently flagged his travel status. Specifically, he was caught with cocaine while returning from New Zealand several years ago, resulting in a level one narcotics possession charge.

The consequences have been more than just a fine; the rapper was effectively barred from entering Australia for eight years due to a decade-long statute of limitations. But even now that he's back on the road for his Lost Americana tour, the ghost of his past remains at the airport.

"I still don’t get [TSA] PreCheck or Global Entry or any of that fast stuff in the airport," he admitted. "I’m still stuck in lines like normal."

Despite the travel headaches, the singer has been vocal about his growth. In 2024, he confirmed he had achieved full sobriety, noting that he no longer drinks or uses substances, choosing instead to focus on his health and his family.

A Digital Divide: Did Megan Fox Block Him?

While MGK is dealing with airport delays, his digital life might be facing its own roadblocks. Rumors are circulating that Megan Fox has officially blocked the singer on Instagram. The reported move comes after Baker left a series of "thirsty" comments on Fox's recent posts, including one under a racy photoshoot where he wrote, "Stoked I have your phone number."

While the two have been navigating a complex co-parenting relationship for their daughter, Saga Blade, it seems Megan might be looking for a bit more space on her feed. For now, the comments have vanished, and the "Bloody Valentine" singer is no longer following her—a classic sign that the block button was indeed involved.
