‘The hair’s cool’: Machine Gun Kelly says he was electrocuted during Super Bowl weekend show
Machine Gun Kelly has said he received an electric shock when performing during Super Bowl weekend.
The musician, real name Colson Baker, headlined the Coors Light Bird’s Nest concert series at Scottsdale’s 2023 Waste Management Phoenix Open in Arizona on Friday (10 February).
Fans noticed that at one point during the concert, the 32-year-old’s hair stuck straight up leading many to speculate that he had been electrocuted.
The moment was captured on video by a concert-goer who shared the clip on social media, where it received attention from others.
Baker reposted the clip on his Instagram story and YouTube channel writing: “Yooo. I got electrocuted and my hair stood up.”
He also tweeted about the shock: “getting electrocuted during a performance was a first for me…but the hair’s cool.”

TMZ has confirmed that no medical assistance was needed at the scene. The musician went on to attend Drake’s Super Bowl party.
Baker’s fiancé Megan Fox has since prompted rumours that the couple have since broken up after she deleted all photos of Baker from her Instagram profile.
The Jennifer’s Body star also shared a cryptic caption on a photo posted on Sunday (12 February).
“You can taste the dishonesty/ it’s all over your breath,” Fox captioned a photo of herself in a black outfit. The caption is lyrics from Beyonce’s song “Pray You Catch Me”.
The Super Bowl took place on Sunday 12 February at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Rihanna headlined the halftime show in a long awaited performance which also saw her announce the news of her pregnancy.
The “Umbrella” singer is expecting her second child with partner A$AP Rocky, nine months after she gave birth to their first child.
