Machine Gun Kelly had a dramatic three-word response about rumors he may be romancing Sydney Sweeney

Machine Gun Kelly Shuts Down Romance Rumors with Sydney Sweeney: "Kyle P., Shut Up Dude!"

The drama is real, folks! Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) has just served a scorching hot three-word response to the rumors swirling around his potential romance with Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney. The sparks were flying between these two at the star-studded opening of the Palm Tree Beach Club at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas earlier this year, and it seems like MGK is not here for the drama.

The 35-year-old rapper appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, where he was grilled about his alleged connection to the stunning actress, 27. When asked by a viewer named Kyle P. if there was any truth to the rumors that they were more than just friends, MGK's response was swift and to the point: "Kyle P., shut up dude!" The studio erupted in laughter as MGK gave zero fucks about the speculation.

For those who don't know, MGK and Sydney have been friends since working together on the 2021 film Downfalls High, which MGK also directed. But things seemed to get cozy between them at the Palm Tree Beach Club opening in May. We're talking close chats, fierce hugs, and even some PDA! It was clear that these two had a undeniable chemistry.

But what's really got everyone talking is MGK's recent history. He had just split from Megan Fox (whom he shares a child with) at the time of the party, and Sydney's own love life has been making headlines since her breakup with longtime fiancé Jonathan Davino earlier this year. The timing couldn't be more juicy!

As the rumors swirled, fans were dying to know if there was any truth to the speculation. Would these two pop stars take their friendship to the next level? Well, it looks like MGK has had enough of the gossip, and he's not afraid to speak his mind.

In one hilarious selfie posted by MGK, he included Patrick Schwarzenegger and hairstylist Glen Oropeza, captioning it: "stop what you’re doing these pictures are v important." Meanwhile, Sydney posted a snap with MGK that left fans wondering if they were more than just acquaintances.

Sydney's love life has been making headlines since her breakup with Jonathan Davino earlier this year. The two had been engaged for years before calling it quits in January (news of the separation didn't come to light until March).
