MGK dragged on Twitter for lame joke
Twitter dragged Machine Gun Kelly for trying to crack an Avengers joke during intros at the NBA All-Star game Sunday (Feb. 20th).
The rocker, who was wearing a sparkly rhinestone sweater and pansuit, brought on Team Durant before making a self-deprecating joke. MGK said, “All right look, I’m not a great basketball…OK, I’m not even a good basketball player, but I did steal all of the Infinity Stones from Thanos, so LeBron, if you need me, I can probably sink something from half-court while I’m wearing this tonight. Just let me know, I’ll be happy to step out.”
Twitter users immediately called the joke “corny,” said it was causing them “physical pain” and requested that he be taken off the stage.
In other botched All-Star intros, Meghan Fox was mistakenly referred to as MGK’s wife on the jumbotron. The two have not yet wed and only confirmed their engagement a month ago.
