Machine Gun Kelly's performnace at the New York City party on Tuesday, June 29 certainly took a bloody turn. While some would chuck it to the artist's quirky way of doing things, it certainly strikes terror on some of the audience when they saw him deliberately bashing his forehead in and continuing to perfom as if nothing out of the ordinary has happened.

His behavior for some is quite problematic too, considering he just admitted to have attempted suicide while in a phone call with Megan Fox.

But then, he has never been accused of being ordinary!

During his performance, the singer for Mainstream Sellout shattered a champagne glass on his forehead, causing him to bleed.

The celebrity-packed afterparty for his Madison Square Garden show at the upscale Catch Steakhouse appeared raucous, according to an Instagram Story he posted Wednesday morning. MGK rose above the crowd on a table while wearing a glittering pink sweater that matched his bright pink hair. The rock star yelled "I don't give a s***!" before smashing the thin glass against his face.

Apparently unmoved by his own outburst, he began singing "My Ex's Best Friend" while members of the audience brought him tissues for his blood. If his head is throbbing or the if the injury is serious, is hard to tell with how the performer just brushed off his bleeding forehead.

After leaving the restaurant, MGK had blood on his forehead and on his fishnet shirt. Megan Fox, his fiancee, walks behind him in a crazy patchwork coat and skintight pink dress.

The artist's antics come after the singer, whose real name is Colson Baker, admitted in his new Hulu documentary Machine Gun Kelly: Life in Pink that he attempted suicide.

He described how, in early 2020, while Meghan was in Bulgaria filming a movie, he was overcome by paranoia. MGK stated that he "lost it" one night and contacted the Transformers actress while carrying a shotgun.

In the doc, he recalls, "I called Megan. I was like, 'You aren't here for me.' I'm in my room and I'm, like, freaking out on her." It was then he attempted to end his life. "Dude, I put the shotgun in my mouth. And I'm yelling on the phone and like the barrel's in my mouth," MGK continued. "And I go to cock the shotgun and the bullet, as it comes back up, the shell just gets jammed. Megan's like dead silent." MGK goes on to say the experience lead him to quit drugs for once and all.
