Longtime friends and new fathers Machine Gun Kelly and Pete Davidson were spotted enjoying a casual night out together at a bar in New York City on Friday, July 3. The pair, both navigating recent life changes as girl dads, took time away from their parental duties for a low-key reunion in Manhattan. The outing came just before MGK was seen attending the high-profile wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden later that evening .
The rapper, born Colson Baker, opted for a laid-back look, wearing a black T-shirt featuring the English rock band The Cure. He paired the shirt with a backward MLB black cap, long black shorts featuring a cross graphic, and white Vans Old Skool sneakers. Davidson, the former Saturday Night Live star, kept his style equally relaxed in an orange Harley-Davidson tank top, blue and black basketball shorts, striped crew socks, and Asics sneakers .
Both men have entered fatherhood in recent months. MGK, 36, welcomed his daughter Saga Blade with former fiancée Megan Fox in March 2025. Despite ending their engagement before the birth, the former couple has remained committed to co-parenting their daughter. The musician also shares a 16-year-old daughter, Casie Colson Baker, with ex-partner Emma Cannon . Davidson, 32, recently became a father to daughter Scottie Rose with model Elsie Hewitt, though the couple separated months after the baby's arrival.

The outing highlighted the enduring friendship between the two stars, which dates back to 2017 when they first met on the set of MTV's Wild 'N Out . Their bond deepened while working together on the 2019 Mötley Crüe biopic The Dirt, in which MGK portrayed drummer Tommy Lee and Davidson played record executive Tom Zutaut . They have since collaborated on other projects, including the 2022 comedy Good Mourning and Davidson's Peacock series Bupkis .
The night out in New York underscored how the pair continues to prioritize their friendship despite their evolving personal lives and new responsibilities as fathers. The casual gathering also preceded MGK's attendance at the much-anticipated wedding of the pop superstar and the NFL tight end, where he joined other celebrity guests to celebrate the couple at the iconic venue.
