They say a couple’s first encounter sets the tone for the entire relationship—so let’s analyze what this means for Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox.

In a new joint interview for GQ Style, Fox and Kelly revealed the story behind their meet-cute at a dimly lit party in Los Angeles, featuring the kind of romantic interaction destined for the books. “I just remember this tall, blond, ghostly creature,” Fox recalled of her first sight of MGK in the interview. “I looked up and I was like, ‘You smell like weed.’ He looked down at me and he was like, ‘I am weed.’ Then, I swear to God, he disappeared like a ninja in a smoke bomb.” Heartwarming and tender—dare we say, poetic.

“That’s what’s crazy,” MGK adds. “I don’t remember your face.”

Fox, who often talks about spirituality, said that she believes their faces were unrecognizable to one another for divinely guided reasons. “I think we weren’t allowed to see each other yet,” she said. “We weren’t supposed to run into each other that night, so our souls, our spirit guides, were luring us away from each other, because you literally had no face, like that thing from Spirited Away.”

Fox added, “Thank God, [because] what torture had I known you were there and I couldn’t get to you. It was better that I didn’t know.”

Fox and MGK, whose quickly progressing, hotly passionate relationship commenced in 2020, now refer to one another as “twin flames.” Per Fox, they share the same soul, hence their deep spiritual connection.

Their second encounter took place on set of Midnight in the Switchgrass, which was reportedly when Fox knew that they were meant for one another. “It was obvious from second one what it was going to be,” Fox said, adding that Kelly came into her life at a time when she least expected. “[I was] definitely open [to] love, but I did not anticipate walking right into my soulmate like that,” Fox said. “I was obviously over the way I had been living, and those paths lined up, those doors opened. It was [as if] all the obstacles that had kept us apart all those years [had been removed] and we were able to finally intersect.”

Fox said that Kelly was the first person she met who fully understood her. “I think I had either put myself in, or allowed other people to put me in, this weird box that didn’t quite fit me, where I hadn’t lived my own life as myself for a really long time—the parts of me that were always eccentric or strange and didn’t belong within my own family unit or within Hollywood.”
