Richard Colson Baker (Machine Gun Kelly or MGK to you and me) was born on April 22, 1990, in Houston, Texas, though, thanks to his parents’ role as missionaries, he spent little time in the Lone Star State.
Of course, the music man isn’t just all about the live gigs. Streaming and album sales bring in a decent wage. MGK has 13.2 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone.
He’s given us some impressive acting gigs in flicks like Nerve (2016) and Bird Box (2018), but nothing compares to his role as Mötley Crüe’s resident badass, Tommy Lee, in “The Dirt”.
