AceShowbiz - Machine Gun Kelly is setting the record straight. The "Bloody Valentine" hitmaker has weighed in on rumors claiming that he hired videographers to document his proposal to Megan Fox as fans found out three camera angles.
In a joint interview with the "Transformers" actress, the 31-year-old rapper told Vogue that he "just recorded it on [his] cell phone." He went on to insist, "It was just like me setting my phone against a cup."
Megan then chimed in, noting that she doesn't "really look at social media" despite their decision to release the video on Instagram as a way to put the news of their engagement out themselves. MGK went on explaining, "We released it to control the narrative."
"As opposed to someone just catching a weird cell phone picture of a ring on our hand and being like, 'whoa!' " MGK said of the proposal that took place on January 11 in Puerto Rico, under the banyan tree, the same spot where the two first fell for each other. He further stressed that he "didn't expect" that their engagement was going to be "a huge megastory."
The footage of the proposal saw MGK getting down on one knee as Megan stood in shock with her hands over her mouth. The "Jennifer's Body" actress then dropped to her knees and allowed MGK to place the engagement ring on her finger. The lovebirds then wrapped their arms around one another and shared a kiss.
Days after their engagement, Megan gave a look at an intimate moment with her now-fiance. Making use of her Instagram Story on January 17, the 35-year-old actress posted a video that saw the soon-to-be-married couple lying side-by-side in their full bath which was infused by rose petals.
Megan also showed off their matching metallic gold pedicures while enjoying romantic time together. The pair could be heard laughing as the "Bad Things" rapper asked, "What the f**k is happening?"
