Machine Gun Kelly is celebrating the release of his album Mainstream Sellout with a new video. On Tuesday, he released the colorful, feline-filled video for “Make Up Sex,” featuring Blackbear. And you can probably guess what it’s about.
Surrounded by dozens, probably hundreds, of cats in a fully pink room, MGK strums his guitar in several equally colorful outfits as he sings, “Face down, laid pipe/Waterworks, swam your pool/Backstroke, we both naked/I can see that ass shaking.”
After singing the catchy chorus, Blackbear joins in for his own verse surrounded by silver balloons. “You hate my guts then you love me/You made me feel so disgusting,” Blackbear raps. “Can’t stop a runner from running/So, go, go, go.” Then, he and MGK sing from what seems like a living room as rose petals go flying.
In the end, a velvet ring box opens to show a phallic-shaped diamond, because, of course, that’s the best way in for a second chance. (And it’s got us thinking that maybe MGK isn’t singing about a cat lady.)
After the video was shared, Kelly posted a selfie video on Instagram with his own cat, jokingly asking his pet, “Were you jealous of the other cats in the ‘Make Up Sex’ video? Hm?” before giving the kitty a kiss.
The release of “Makeup Sex” follows several of the album’s previous singles, including “Maybe,” “Ay!,” and TikTok’s favorite meme sound: “Emo Girl,” featuring Willow. Meanwhile, Blackbear recently joined BoyWithUke on “IDGAF” earlier this year. He also dropped his EPMisery Lake last year.
Machine Gun Kelly is set to head on a massive 52-date tour with special guests Avril Lavigne,Travis Barker, Blackbear, Trippie Redd,Willow, Iann Dior, Pvris, and 44phantom appearing on select dates throughout North America and Europe.
