Machine Gun Kelly melted hearts this week after sharing a touching post-performance moment with his 15-year-old daughter, Casie.

The rapper and rocker, known for his edgy style and high-energy music, had just wrapped a set on NBC’s Today show when Casie ran into his arms for a long hug.

Fans watching the livestream were struck by how grounded and loving the moment was, with Kelly later posting, “Nothing better than this.” Casie, his daughter from a previous relationship, has grown up largely out of the spotlight, but recently she’s been seen at more public events with her dad. Their bond is clear—just last month, she joined him on stage at his birthday party, and videos of them dancing together quickly went viral.

MGK, who also shares a younger daughter named Saga from his relationship with Megan Fox, has often talked about how being a father keeps him centered despite the chaos of fame. Fans online flooded the comments with support, praising his role as a present, emotionally available dad.

In an industry where celebrity families can feel distant and curated, this raw moment of connection stood out—and reminded everyone that behind the tattoos and fame, there’s a dad who just really loves his kids.
